This form is used for the policy intervention part of a model component. The infobox from the introduction page will be displayed here, with exception of the references. The page starts with a description of the baseline plus figure, followed by a table with policy interventions. The page ends with examples of policy interventions, text plus figures. The 'policy interventions' themselves must be entered separately via the Form:PolicyInterventionForm.
Description. Baseline and Policy intervention examples:
<div class="page_standard"> ==Baseline developments== GLOFRIS can be used to assess a wide range of scenarios based on data on land cover and climate change. The module , for instance, has been used to analyse the impact of floods on Bangladesh published in [[Winsemius et al., 2012]]. Calculations showed that population and economic growth are more likely to have greater impact on future flood risks than the impacts of climate change. Thus, the focus would need to be on how the changes in socio-economic conditions can be combined with flood risk reduction. The study compares the current situation with the impacts of changes in climate and socio-economic conditions. The left panel in the figure below shows the pattern of a flood occurring once every 30 years according to GLOFRIS, scaled down to 1x1 km<sup>2</sup> over Bangladesh, under current climate conditions. The right-hand panels in the figure below show the resulting expected values of damage under current climate and socio-economic conditions, based on the two methods described in [[Winsemius et al., 2012]]. Flood risks have been computed using the two methods for the reference situation and for two climate data sets. {{DisplayPolicyInterventionFigureTemplate|{{#titleparts: {{PAGENAME}}|1}}|Baseline figure}} ==Policy interventions== To date, the model has not been used extensively for specific policy interventions. Measures taken elsewhere in the IMAGE framework to prevent climate change could also reduce flood risks. {{DisplayPolicyInterventionFigureTemplate|{{#titleparts: {{PAGENAME}}|1}}|Policy intervention figure}} {{PIEffectOnComponentTemplate }} </div>
