Garrett, Timothy J. | Gains in economic energy efficiency as the impetus for increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide | Growth of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions is frequently diagnosed as a product of population, per capita economic production, the energy intensity of economic production (or inverse of its energy efficiency), and the carbon intensity of energy. This paper introduces an alternative, p... | carbon dioxide, energy efficiency, economics | 2007-12-17 |

Garrett, Timothy J. | Are there basic physical constraints on future anthropogenic emissions of carbon dioxide? | Global Circulation Models (GCMs) provide projections for future climate warming using a wide variety of highly sophisticated anthropogenic CO2 emissions scenarios as input, each based on the evolution of four emissions "drivers": population p, standard of living g, energy productivity (or efficiency... | Global circulation models; Anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions | 2009 |

Reichler, Thomas J. | Role of boundary and initial conditions for dynamical seasonal predictability | The importance of initial state and boundary forcing for atmospheric predictability is explored on global to regional spatial scales and on daily to seasonal time scales. A general circulation model is used to conduct predictability experiments with different combinations of initial and boundary co... | Atmospheric predictions; Seasonal forecasting; Boundary forcing | 2002 |

Garrett, Timothy J. | Modes of growth in dynamic systems | Regardless of a system's complexity or scale, its growth can be considered to be a spontaneous thermodynamic response to a local convergence of down-gradient material flows. Here it is shown how system growth can be constrained to a few distinct modes that depend on the time integral of past flows a... | 2012-01-01 |
