Earthquakes occur by overcoming fault friction, and therefore quantifying the resistance of faults is central to earthquake physics. Both static and dynamic friction values are required, and the latter is especially difficult to determine on natural faults. Perhaps the only way to solve the problem is to drill into a ...
This seminar will summarize insights from the 36th Energy Modeling Forum study (EMF36) on the magnitude and distribution of economic adjustment costs of greenhouse gas emission reduction targets. Under the Paris Agreement, countries have committed to emission reduction targets - so-called Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) - in order to combat ...
