Emissions Input Data
This directory contains emissions input fields used to drive simulations utilized in Persad, G. The Dependence of Aerosols’ Global and Local Precipitation Impacts on Emitting Region (submitted, Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics) and published in Persad, G. G. & Caldeira, K. Divergent global-scale temperature effects from identical aerosols emitted in different regions. Nature Communications 9, 3289 (2018). Full details on simulation set-up may be found in Persad and Caldeira (2018) and Persad (submitted, Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics)
From the Persad and Caldeira (2018) Simulation and Analysis section:
"Nine 100-year, repeating annual cycle simulations were conducted in CAM5 coupled to the mixed-layer ocean: one control simulation, and eight regionally perturbed simulations. The control simulation is a year 2000 cli- mate with non-biomass burning anthropogenic black carbon, organic carbon, sulfur dioxide (SO2), and sulfate (SO4) emissions fields set to 1850 values. In each of the eight regionally perturbed simulations, the relevant region is populated with that region’s year 2000 values, scaled at every regional grid point and time step to achieve additional total annual emissions equivalent to China’s total year 2000 values: 22.4 Tg sulfate precursor, 1.61 Tg of black carbon emissions, and 4.03 Tg of organic carbon emissions. The 1850 and 2000 baseline emissions fields on which these are based are CAM5’s standard historical emissions fields1, and the resulting emissions fields used to drive simulations are publicly accessible to allow for replication in other model suites (see Data availability).

Metastatic Castrate-Resistant Prostate Cancer: New Landscape, New Challenges
Just 5 years after docetaxel was recommended by the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence as the standard of care for metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer, a novel taxane—cabazitaxel—has been licensed in Europe and the USA for a similar indication. It is authorised for use in patients whose disease progresses after docetaxel, for whom it has been shown to provide a survival benefit over current palliative strategies. However, it is not the only new treatment for this population of patients. The hormonal agent abiraterone has also been licensed in the USA, and is expected to receive a European licence later this year, the sipuleucel-T vaccine has been approved in the USA, and other agents are on the near horizon. While these advances are undoubtedly welcome, much thought will need to be given to their optimal use in terms of patient selection, the timing/sequencing of treatment, and to the design of the prostate cancer treatment paradigm. It will also be important to consider the impact that new agents will have on healthcare spending and capacity. </jats:p
