New Publication Alert
Our recent study on the response of #endangeredplantspecies Tecomella undulata, a #keystonespecies in #drylandecosystems in #India, to #climatechange since the LGM to #sharedsocioeconomicpathways in the future was published in the #JournalofAridEnvironments.
The #SharedSocioeconomicPathways (#SSPs) have become an integral component of #IntegratedAssessment and #Climate research - and now, it's time for an update of the underlying #GDP & #population projections.
Visit https://data.ece.iiasa.ac.at/ssp for the SSP Release 3.0 (January 2024) and register for the webinar (February 8, 15:00 CET) at https://www.iamconsortium.org/event/joint-iamc-iconics-webinar-updated-ssp-socioeconomic-projections/ ...
Most quantitative scenarios used by the #IPCC are based on the #SharedSocioeconomicPathways (or #SSP), implemented in process-based #IntegratedAssessment models - these are not DICE-style models.
Here explained well by #CarbonBrief:

The #SharedSocioEconomicPathways (#SSP) are the foundation of #ClimateChange #Mitigation research - but the underlying national projections 
of #GDP and #population are outdated...
So the #IAMconsortium & #ICONICS are starting an update & review 
process! Please contribute and comment on the review-projections!
