title: Economic parameters and summarized costs for calculating net present value (NPV) for each scenario

description: <b>Table 3.</b> Economic parameters and summarized costs for calculating net present value (NPV) for each scenario. All dollars in $2009. <strong>Abstract</strong> This letter compares several bounding cases for understanding the economic viability of capturing large quantities of anthropogenic CO<sub>2</sub> from coal-fired power generators within the Electric Reliability Council of Texas electric grid and using it for pure CO<sub>2</sub> enhanced oil recovery (EOR) in the onshore coastal region of Texas along the Gulf of Mexico. All captured CO<sub>2</sub> in excess of that needed for EOR is sequestered in saline formations at the same geographic locations as the oil reservoirs but at a different depth. We analyze the extraction of oil from the same set of ten reservoirs within 20- and five-year time frames to describe how the scale of the carbon dioxide capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) network changes to meet the rate of CO<sub>2</sub> demand for oil recovery. Our analysis shows that there is a negative system-wide net present value (NPV) for all modeled scenarios. The system comes close to breakeven economics when capturing CO<sub>2</sub> from three coal-fired power plants to produce oil via CO<sub>2</sub>-EOR over 20 years and assuming no CO<sub>2</sub> emissions penalty. The NPV drops when we consider a larger network to produce oil more quickly (21 coal-fired generators with CO<sub>2</sub> capture to produce 80% of the oil within five years). Upon applying a CO<sub>2</sub> emissions penalty of 60$2009/tCO<sub>2</sub> to fossil fuel emissions to ensure that coal-fired power plants with CO<sub>2</sub> capture remain in baseload operation, the system economics drop significantly. We show near profitability for the cash flow of the EOR operations only; however, this situation requires relatively cheap electricity prices during operation.

title: A side-by-side comparison of the systematic conservation planning for biodiversity and REDD+ carbon payments for climate

description: <b>Table A.1.</b> A side-by-side comparison of the systematic conservation planning for biodiversity and REDD+ carbon payments for climate. <strong>Abstract</strong> Biodiversity loss and climate change both result from tropical deforestation, yet strategies to address biodiversity loss have focused primarily on protected areas while strategies to address climate change have focused primarily on carbon payments. Conservation planning research has focused largely on where to prioritize protected areas to achieve the greatest representation of species at viable levels. Meanwhile research on reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation (REDD+) has focused largely on how to design payments to achieve the greatest additional reduction in greenhouse gases relative to baseline rates. This divergence of strategies and research agendas may be attributed to four factors: rare species are more heterogeneously distributed than carbon; species are more difficult to measure and monitor than carbon; species are more sensitive to ecological processes and human disturbance than carbon; and people's value for species diminishes beyond a threshold while their value for carbon storage does not. Conservation planning can achieve greater biodiversity benefits by adopting the concept of additionality from REDD+. REDD+ can achieve greater climate benefits by incorporating spatial prioritization from conservation planning. Climate and biodiversity benefits can best be jointly achieved from tropical forests by targeting the most additional actions to the most important places. These concepts are illustrated using data from the forests of Indonesia.

title: Ranking of top five flights by O<sub>3</sub> impact for two different metrics

description: <b>Table 2.</b> Ranking of top five flights by O<sub>3</sub> impact for two different metrics. The first section shows ranking by total impact, i.e. the contribution of each flight to the total ozone perturbation. The second section shows ranking by FOF, i.e. ozone impact normalized by fuel burn and scaled by the lowest impact flight. Return trips were not counted (only the higher of a return-trip pair are counted). <strong>Abstract</strong> Aviation NO<sub><em>x</em></sub> emissions promote tropospheric ozone formation, which is linked to climate warming and adverse health effects. Modeling studies have quantified the relative impact of aviation NO<sub><em>x</em></sub> on O<sub>3</sub> in large geographic regions. As these studies have applied forward modeling techniques, it has not been possible to attribute O<sub>3</sub> formation to individual flights. Here we apply the adjoint of the global chemistry–transport model GEOS-Chem to assess the temporal and spatial variability in O<sub>3</sub> production due to aviation NO<sub><em>x</em></sub> emissions, which is the first application of an adjoint to this problem. We find that total aviation NO<sub><em>x</em></sub> emitted in October causes 40% more O<sub>3</sub> than in April and that Pacific aviation emissions could cause 4–5 times more tropospheric O<sub>3</sub> per unit NO<sub><em>x</em></sub> than European or North American emissions. Using this sensitivity approach, the O<sub>3</sub> burden attributable to 83 000 unique scheduled civil flights is computed individually. We find that the ten highest total O<sub>3</sub>-producing flights have origins or destinations in New Zealand or Australia. The top ranked O<sub>3</sub>-producing flights normalized by fuel burn cause 157 times more normalized O<sub>3</sub> formation than the bottom ranked ones. These results show significant spatial and temporal heterogeneity in environmental impacts of aviation NO<sub><em>x</em></sub> emissions.
