Anticipation

C³IAM simulates long-lived GHG emissions of carbon dioxide (CO₂), methane (CH₄), and nitrous oxide (N₂O). CO₂ emissions from fuel combustion are calculated based on energy sources with fixed coefficient. CO₂ resulting from land-use changes is endogenously calculated as a consequence of the land use (taking changes of land use from previous year). CO₂ emissions from industrial process, CH₄ and N₂O emissions are basically associated with each sector’s activity level. The activity level and corresponding emissions in the base year are drawn from the Greenhouse Gas and Air Pollution Interactions and Synergies (GAINS).
