Chapter 6 of the Working Group I Contribution to the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report - data for Figure 6.25 (v20221215)
Abstract
Data for Figure 6.25 from Chapter 6 of the Working Group I (WGI) Contribution to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report (AR6).
Figure 6.25 shows the effect of dedicated air pollution or climate policy on population-weighted PM2.5 (Fine particulate matter) concentrations (µg m-3) and share of population (%) exposed to different PM2.5 levels across 10 world regions.

| Abstract | Effect of dedicated air pollution or climate policy on population-weighted PM2.5 concentrations (µg m–3) and share of population (%) exposed to different PM2.5 levels across selected world regions. Thresholds of 10 µg m–3 and 35 µg m–3 represent the WHO air quality guideline and the WHO interim target 1, respectively; WHO (2017). Results are compared for SSP3-7.0 (no major improvement of current legislation is assumed), SSP3-lowSLCF (strong air pollution controls are assumed), and a climate change mitigation scenario SSP3-3.4; details of scenario assumptions are discussed in Riahi et al. (2017) and Rao et al. (2017). Analysis performed with the TM5-FASST model (Van Dingenen et al., 2018) using emission projections from the Shared economic Pathway (SSP) database (Riahi et al., 2017; Rogelj et al., 2018a; Gidden et al., 2019). Further details on data sources and processing are available in the chapter data table (Table 6.SM.3). |
