Like all scenarios in mrdrivers, the Population, Labour and Urban population share scenarios are the result of a harmonization exercise between past data and future projections.

The scenario argument is used to designate the scenario(s) to be returned. Currently available Population scenarios are: SSPs, SSP1, SSP2, SSP3, SSP4, SSP5, SDPs, ISIMIP, SSP2IndiaDEAs, SSP2IndiaMedium, SSP2IndiaHigh. See the vignette: vignette("scenarios") and/or toolGetScenarioDefinition() for more information, scenario options, definitions and references.

Usage

calcPopulation(scenario, ...)

calcLabour(scenario, ...)

calcUrban(scenario, asShare = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

scenario

A string (or vector of strings) designating the scenario(s) to be returned. Use toolGetScenarioDefinition() to learn what scenarios are available.

...

Arguments passed on to calcDriver

extension2150

A string specifying if/how the scenarios should be extended until 2150. Can be either:

  • "bezier" (default): A bezier curve extension that leads to a smooth flattening of the scenario: the slope in the last year of the scenario is halved by 2150. Currently only works for scenarios with 2100 as their last year.

  • "constant": The last value of the scenarios is taken as constant until 2150.

  • "none": No extension.

asShare

If TRUE (default) urban population shares are returned. If FALSE, then urban population in millions is returned.

Value

magpie object with the requested output data either on country or on regional level depending on the choice of argument "aggregate" or a list of information if supplementary is set to TRUE.
