A Stochastic Approach in Modeling of Regional Atmospheric CO2 in the United States

Global warming is a function of two main contributable entities in the atmosphere, carbon dioxide, and atmospheric temperature. The objective of this study is to develop a statistical model using actual fossil fuel carbon dioxide emissions data from the United States to predict relative probability...

TsokosGlobal warming is a function of two main contributable entities in the atmosphere, carbon dioxide, and atmospheric temperature. The objective of this study is to develop a statistical model using actual fossil fuel carbon dioxide emissions data from the United States to predict relative probability of rate of change in fossil fuels carbon dioxide emissions from nine US climate regions using transition modeling. The sensitivity of these transition probabilities to five sectors, that are the commercial, industrial, residential, transportation, and electric power sector, is also investigated for all nine US climate regions. The present study also suggests that the US government should be developing regional policies to control fossil fuel carbon dioxide emissions that will be more effective in addressing the subject problem.https://www.atlantis-press.com/article/125935389/viewGlobal WarmingClimate ChangeCluster AnalysisTransition Modeling
