Emissions Scenario
From Open Risk Manual
Definition
An Emissions Scenario denotes a plausible future pathway of man-made emissions (e.g. greenhouse gases and other pollutants,) that can affect climate.
These pathways are based on a coherent and internally consistent set of assumptions about determining factors (such as demographic and socioeconomic development, technological change) and their key relationships[1]
An emissions scenario is an example of specifying a Risk Factor in the context of a Scenario Analysis
