Documentation of model components
The MIMOSA model consists of several sub-modules, called model components. Each component is made up of multiple variables (global or regional), parameters and equations (called constraints).
-
Economics
Cobb-Douglas production function, investments, consumption and capital stock
-
Welfare
Welfare and the utility function
-
Emissions and temperature
- Baseline emissions, regional mitigated emissions and cumulative emissions
- Temperature module
- Constraints on emissions like inertia
-
Mitigation
Mitigation costs, Marginal Abatement Cost curve and technological learning
-
Sea-level rise
Determines the level of global sea-level rise
-
Damages
Temperature related damages and sea-level rise related damages
-
Effort-sharing
Optional
Various effort-sharing regimes to distribute the mitigation (and sometimes damage) costs -
Emission trading
Optional
Allows for global trade of emission reductions -
Financial transfers
Optional
Financial transfer schemes like a global damage cost pool
Building the abstract model
Builds the abstract model for MIMOSA by combining all components. Some components are optional. In the parameters, different variants of some components can be chosen. The components are:
damage_module
: The damage module to useemissiontrade_module
: The emission trading module to usefinancialtransfer_module
: The financial transfer module to usewelfare_module
: The welfare module to useobjective_module
: The objective module to useeffortsharing_regime
: The effort sharing regime to use
