This is a property of type Text.
A
Percentage of the population with sustainable access to safe drinking water and basic sanitation. +
Accessibility expressed as travel time. +
Actual crop and grass production on agricultural land, based on potential yield and management intensity +
Costs for adaptation measures to reduce the vulnerability of natural and human systems to actual or expected climate change effects. +
Level of adaptation to climate change , defined as the share of climate change damage avoided by adaptation. This level is be calculated by the model to minimise adaptation costs and residual damage, or set by the user. +
Total area for crop production (annual and perennial) and intensive grassland. +
Suitability of land in a grid cell for agriculture and forestry, as a function of accessibility, population density, slope and potential crop yields. +
Air pollution policies set to reach emission reduction targets, represented in the model in the form of energy carrier and sector specific emission factors. +
Harmful algal blooms in lakes caused by cyanobacteria, producing toxins harmful to humans and animals. +
Effective production of livestock commodities per animal per year. +
Number of animals per category: non-dairy cattle; dairy cattle; pigs; sheep and goats; poultry. +
Relative Mean Species Abundance of original species in lakes, rivers and wetlands. +
B
Emissions of BC, OC and NO<sub>x</sub> per year. +
The average abundance across a set of species in each area relative to their reference population, which would be populations before any humans impacts but are usually populations in the least impacted settings available +
Area of bioenergy crop production, in model setting where sustainability criteria require that the area for bioenergy crops is not included in the agricultural production area (to avoid competition between bioenergy and food). +
Total bioenergy production. +
Policies to foster the use of biofuels in transport, such as financial incentives and biofuel mandates and obligations. +
Biomes are groups of plants and animals, often referred as ecosystems. Their spatial distribution on Earth is defined by climatic and geographical conditions defined as contiguous areas with similar climatic conditions. Biomes are often referred to by climatic conditions (such as, tropical, temperate, boreal) and physiological characteristic (such as, grassland, deciduous trees, coniferous trees). +
Urban built-up area per grid cell, excluded from all biophysical modelling in IMAGE, increasing over time as a function of urban population and a country- and scenario-specific urban density curve. +
C
CLUMondo specific input. +
