WESTCARB Technical Presentations

In the tradition of open technical exchange in the scientific and engineering professions, WESTCARB partners periodically submit papers or articles to peer-reviewed scientific and engineering journals or make PowerPoint presentations at technical conferences. This webpage provides links to such WESTCARB technical presentations on carbon sequestration.

[Note that links to general news about WESTCARB or carbon sequestration are listed under the webpages for WESTCARB News and Sequestration News, respectively.]

Select a link of interest from the list below to view the associated technical paper, article, or presentation.

August 16, 2004 — Emissions pathways, climate change, and impacts on California Katherine Hayhoe, et al. Although this article in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) is not the result of WESTCARB research, it provides "reference baselines" of the climate changes that could occur, and their implications, under various future global emissions scenarios. Successful development of CO₂ sequestration measures can help reduce future net CO₂ emissions
