Temperature

The temperature model computes the evolution of atmospheric and ocean temperature following change in CO2 concentration. It contains three equations, one for the radiative forcing and two equations for the climate system, all extracted from DICE model with no modification. It is completed by an Etminan model (improved version of the Myhre model) for CH4 and NO2 emissions impact.

Damages

The Damage model estimate damage on economy, productivity - and feeds population model for damage to population (heat, increased pandemic diseases...).
