Overview of IMAGE framework versions and their changes

Scheme: Mapping of core models to model components

Image framework scheme with mapping of components to the computer models
Mapping of IMAGE framework components to the computer models.
Note: Land-use emissions are also calculated in LPJmL.

IMAGE 3.2 (latest version)

IMAGE 3.2 describes the framework version used to produce the SSP scenarios

Framework model composition

IMAGE 3.0.1

IMAGE 3.0.1 describes the framework version used to produce the SSP scenarios

Framework model composition

  • IMAGE land management 3.0.1 (changed), Model version as used for the implementation of the SSP scenarios
  • TIMER 3.0.1 (changed), Model version as used for the implementation of the SSP scenarios
  • Fair-SimCap 3.0, Initial version of IMAGE 3.0 framework
  • GISMO 3.0, Initial version of IMAGE 3.0 framework
  • GLOBIO 3.0, Initial version of IMAGE 3.0 framework
  • GLOFRIS 3.0, Initial version of IMAGE 3.0 framework
  • IMAGE-LPJmL 3, LPJmL version as used in IMAGE 3.0 framework, initial version of IMAGE 3.0 framework

  • IMAGE-MAGNET 3.0, MAGNET version as used in IMAGE 3.0 framework, initial version of IMAGE 3.0 framework

Changes compared to previous version

Model versionChanges
IMAGE land management 3.0.1
  • The allocation of new irrigated area is slightly updated, and described. In model component: Land-use allocation
  • The empirical allocation approach is now described as the default model setting, and the possible coupling to CLUEMondo is included as a very specific, additional option. In model component: Land-use allocation
  • Forest management, and the uncertainties in this module are now described in more detail. In model component: Forest management
TIMER 3.0.1
  • The model has been recalibrated using information of EDGAR database and the GAINS database In model component: Emissions
  • Bio-energy: new bio-energy crop (grassy biomass) has been added and more detailed modeled to derive the potential for residues. In model component: Energy supply
  • The model describing demand for non-energy use of fossil fuels and biomass has been improved. In model component: Energy demand
  • The electric power model has been significantly improved to better describe the penetration of intermittent technologies vis-à-vis reliability and load constraints. In model component: Energy conversion
  • Concentrated solar power and wind power in coastal seas have been added as additional technologies. In model component: Energy conversion
  • The transport model has been updated with new information on the performance of different technologies. In model component: Energy demand
