climate_metrics.temperature_response#
- climate_metrics.temperature_response(time_horizon, emissions, GHG, step_size, annual=False)#
Computes the global mean temperature change at in response to an emission scenario.
The temperature_response is computed using a convolution of emissions and absolute global temperature change potential (AGTP):
When emissions is a single value, instead of a temporal emission scenario, temperature_response returns the same result as AGTP.
- Parameters
- time_horizonint
The time at which the temperature response is computed.
- emissionsndarray
Emissions in kg of a GHG.
- GHGstr
- step_sizefloat or int
The step size used to generate the time axis.
