Notes

  1. 1.

    In this study, only mitigation measures are considered as climate change measures (policies), and adaptation measures are not considered.

  2. 2.

    In this study, not only six Kyoto GHGs (i.e., CO2, CH4, N2O, HFCs, PFCs, and SF6) but also CO, NOX. NH3, SO2, non-methane volatile organic compounds, black carbon, and organic carbon are considered.

  3. 3.

    See Moss et al. (2008, 2010) and Van Vuuren et al. (2011a) for the details of RCPs.

  4. 4.

    Since the model used in this study is different from those used in the original RCP analyses, the features are different from them except for the 6 W/m2 scenario. Radiative forcing of the 8.5 W/m2 scenario is higher than that of the reference scenario of this study, meaning that it is required to increase GHG emissions from it. Since such operation has little meaning, we do not show the result of the 8.5 W/m2 scenario below.
