Metrics assesment tool

Computable dynamic climate change metrics are 'cumulative radiative forcing' (ΔF) and 'global mean temperature change' (ΔT). They are respectively the equivalent of Absoloute Global Warming Potential (AGWP) and Abslute Global Temperature change Potential (AGTP) when pulses at different timing occur.

ΔF is in W.year.m-2.FU-1 and ΔT is in °C.FU-1, where FU the functionnal unit.

Greenhouse gases that can be inventoried are carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and Nitrous oxyde (N2O).
