Model Documentation - C3IAM

The C³IAM is an integrated assessment model framework of interacting social economic system and earth system, which dynamically captures the large-scale and long-term optimal economic growth and climate change mitigation & adaptation. C³IAM consists of a combination of seven different models or modules, including the Global Energy and Environmental Policy Analysis model (C³IAM/GEEPA), the Global Multi-regional Economic Optimum Growth model (C³IAM/EcOp), the China’s Multi-Regional Energy and Environmental Policy Analysis model (C³IAM/MR.CEEPA), the National Energy Technology model (C³IAM/NET), the Climate System model (C³IAM/Climate), the Ecological Land Use model (C³IAM/EcoLa) and the Climate Change Loss model (C³IAM/Loss), which complement each other and are specialized in different areas. The seven models are interlinked within the integrated framework.
