 *	The climate model with associated data is updated to Magicc 6.0, a simple climate model that estimates global average temperatures as the result of net [[GHG]] emissions, carbon uptake, and atmospheric concentrations of climate forcing agents. The global average temperature is used to scale grid-based climate indicators emerging from complex climate model studies.
 *	Additional impact modules provide information on flood risks;; aquatic biodiversity; ecosystem goods and services and human health.
-*	Optimal GHG emission reduction pathways under overall climate policy goals are explored under varying assumptions for participation timing, rules and emission targets under global strategies. A simple cost-benefit analysis tool is added to test the net economic outcome of mitigation efforts, adaptation costs and residual climate change impacts at different levels of forcing, subject to varying cost and damage assumptions found in the literature.
