Stanford-EPRI Webinar: Modeling global climate change and earth system responses to greenhouse gas emissions
April 17, 2024
1:00-2:30 PM EDT / 10:00-11:30 AM PDT / 7:00-8:30 PM CET
Opening remarks: John Weyant (Stanford University) and Steve Rose (EPRI)
Moderator: Flavio Lehner (Cornell University)
Panel: Erwan Monier (University of California-Davis), Corinne Hartin (U.S. EPA), Claudia Tebaldi (PNNL JGCRI)
On this webcast, our speakers will discuss the available options for estimating future climate and earth system responses to emissions for evaluating the global economic impacts of climate change, which includes reduced complexity modeling, complex Earth System Models, and global warming level-climate indicator correlations. The expert speakers will provide insights into alternative methods, strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and challenges, including discussing modeling capabilities and the characterization of climate and earth system response uncertainty.
The Stanford-EPRI Public Educational Webcast Series
The Stanford-EPRI public educational webcast series explores options for modeling the global economic impacts of climate change and the social cost of carbon module-by-module, as well as overall. The first webcast in the series was January 11th and opened with a brief introduction to the series before diving into the topic of “Projecting economies and emissions for estimating the global economic impacts of climate change.” The second webcast in the series was February 26th on “Options for estimating the global economic impacts response to a future climate.” See series website and below for details and links to the publicly available materials for the previous webcasts in the series.
