climate_metrics.GTP#

climate_metrics.GTP(time_horizon, emissions, GHG, step_size=1, annual=False)#

Compute average global temperature change potential of emissions.

Parameters
time_horizonint
emissionsint or ndarray

If emissions is an int, the emission is assumed to occur at time=0.

GHGstr {‘CO2’, ‘CH4’, ‘N2O’}, optional

Type of GHG emission in emissions.

step_sizefloat or int

Step size of emissions in years.

annualbool

If True, returns annual GTP over the time_horizon. If False, returns the single value at time_horizon.
