Water vapor plays an important role in weather, global climate processes and atmospheric chemistry. It is the most significant greenhouse gas and affects the planet's radiative and non-radiative energy balance. The distribution of water vapor in the atmosp ...
What will be the costs and benefits related to climate change for the Swiss tourism sector and what are the possible private and public adaptation measures on regional and national scale? ...
Switzerland, as many developed countries, face a double problem for the next round of international negotiations on climate change. On the one hand, short term economic strategies would favor the implementation of a global carbon market that would minimize ...
This paper proposes a computational game-theoretic model for the international negotiations that should take place at the end of the period covered by the Kyoto protocol. These negotiations could lead to a self-enforcing agreement on a burden sharing schem ...
The consideration of predicted climate change conditions in the hydrogeological and geomechanical modelling of a large landslide allows the assessment of its future behaviour in case of crisis. This application shows that the predictions are not necessaril ...
A probabilistic assessment of climate change and related impacts should consider a large range of potential future climate scenarios. State-of-the-art climate models, especially coupled atmosphere-ocean general circulation models and Regional Climate Model ...
Economic consequences of climate change for the Swiss winter tourism have been assessed in two studies. Though estimates of the potential annual costs highly differ between them, they however agree on two points. On the one hand, winter tourism will be one ...
Future climate frameworks, the localization of energy policy, energy-water linkages, consumer-driven innovation, are among the key words that keep utility strategists awake. This essay is an attempt to put these questions into context and derive a possible ...
Methane (CH4) is a major greenhouse gas whose global warming potential is 23 times more important than carbon dioxide (CO2). CH4 concentrations have steadily increased since the beginning of the industrial era, reaching an unprecedent level (almost 1800 pp ...
Deepwater renewal by intrusions and turbulent diffusion in Lake Baikal is very effective despite the enormous depth of up to 1642 m and the permanently stable stratification below similar to 300 m depth. Temperature time series recorded at the bottom of a ...
