Result description
Emissions and climate effects due to the COVID-19 response (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3902603): Monthly emissions and concentrations for the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting societal response. All scenarios should be compared to the input4MIPS SSP2-4.5 baseline https://esgf-node.llnl.gov/search/input4mips/ Four scenarios are given for departures from the SSP2-4.5 baseline. The baseline is also provided for convenience. Scenarios depart after the start of 2020. Monthly concentrations of CO2, CH4 and N2O are provided over 2015-2050. For short-lived species emissions are provided for BC, CO, OC, SO2, NH3, NOx, & NMVOCs. Monthly values for years:2015,2019,2020,2023,2030,2040 and 2050 are provided for the four scenarios and baseline. The SSP245 baseline is also available from the input4MIPS website.

Addressing target audiences and expressing needs
Our needs are
- To raise awareness and possibly influence policy
- Help in technical expertise
- Collaboration
We specifically need / are looking for
Working with others to find applications of the data to climate and economic modelling of global recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, focusing on supporting a green recovery and action towards climate neutrality by 2050.
Target audiences
- EU and Member State Policy-makers
- International Organisations (ex. OECD, FAO, UN, etc.)
- Research and Technology Organisations
- Academia/ Universities
