Description The global change research community has recognized that new pathway and scenario
concepts are needed to implement impact and vulnerability assessment where
precise prediction is not possible, and also that these scenarios need to be logically
consistent across local, regional, and global scales (Moss et al., 2008, 2010). For
global climate models, representative concentration pathways (RCPs) have been
developed that provide a range of time-series of atmospheric greenhouse-gas concentrations
into the future (Moss et al., 2008, 2010; van Vuuren et al., 2012a). For
impact and vulnerability assessment, new socio-economic pathway and scenario
concepts have also been developed (Kriegler, 2012; van Vuuren et al., 2012b), with
leadership from the Integrated Assessment Modeling Consortium (IAMC)...
