m3_get_yll_pm25_ecoloss — m3_get_yll_pm25

Produce Economic damages associated with YLLs attributable to PM2.5.The economic valuation takes as a base value the Value of Statistical Life Year (VSLY) for EU from Schlander et al (2017) and expands the value to other regions based on the“unit value transfer approach” which adjusts the VSLY according to their GDP and GDP growth rates. . .YLL-to-Mortalities ratios are based on TM5-FASST calculations. Premature mortalities are based on the integrated exposure-response functions (IER) from Burnett et al (2014), consistent with the GBD 2016 study.

Arguments

db_path: Path to the GCAM database
query_path: Path to the query file
db_name: Name of the GCAM database
prj_name: Name of the rgcam project. This can be an existing project, or, if not, this will be the name
scen_name: Name of the GCAM scenario to be processed
queries: Name of the GCAM query file. The file by default includes the queries required to run rfasst
final_db_year: Final year in the GCAM database (this allows to process databases with user-defined "stop periods")
ssp: Set the ssp narrative associated to the GCAM scenario. c("SSP1","SSP2","SSP3","SSP4","SSP5"). By default is SSP2
saveOutput: Writes the emission files.By default=T
map: Produce the maps. By default=F
anim: If set to T, produces multi-year animations. By default=T

Value

Economic damages associated with YLLs attributable to PM2.5 exposure for each TM5-FASST regions for all years (Thous$2015).The list of countries that form each region and the full name of the region can be found in Table S2.2 in the TM5-FASST documentation paper: Van Dingenen, R., Dentener, F., Crippa, M., Leitao, J., Marmer, E., Rao, S., Solazzo, E. and Valentini, L., 2018.
