Anticipation

We base population inputs on the Shared Socio-economic Pathway (SSP) scenarios (KC and Lutz 2014; Dellink et al. 2015). By default, we apply the population projections (both total population as well as working age population) from IIASA https://secure.iiasa.ac.at/web-apps/ene/SspDb/dsd?Action=htmlpage&page=about). Individual projections are available for each of the five SSP scenarios. By default, we use SSP2 scenario data.
