RCP database
International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis
The RCP (Representative Concentration Pathways) database aims at documenting the emissions, concentrations, and land-cover change projections of the RCPs. The Representative Concentration Pathways are based on selected scenarios from four modeling teams/models (NIES/AIM, IIASA/MESSAGE, PNNL/MiniCAM, and PBL/IMAGE). The RCPs are meant to serve as input for climate and atmospheric chemistry modeling as part of the preparatory phase for the development of new scenarios for the IPCC's Fifth Assessment Report and beyond. Version 2.0 of the database includes harmonized and consolidated data for three of the four RCPs.
