The Integrated Global System Model (IGSM) is an Integrated Assessment Model (IAM) developed by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Joint Program on the Science and Policy of Global Change. The IGSM couples the MIT Earth System Model (MESM),[1] an Earth system model of intermediate complexity, to the Economic Projection and Policy Analysis (EPPA),[2] a human activity model that represents the world's economy. It has been used to understand the interactions between humans and the global climate system.[3][4]

History

IGSM was introduced in 1999 in a paper by

Climatic Change[5] Version 2 was released in 2005.[4]

Reception

Academic reception

The IGSM has been referenced by the United States Environmental Protection Agency[6] and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.[7][8]

The IGSM has also been referenced in academic literature on climate systems, human activity, and policy implications. Version 1 was used by the model creators for an analysis of the

Climatic Change in 2013.[13] A demonstration of the IGSM capabilities for multi-sectoral assessment of climate impacts under a range of consistent and integrated economic and climate scenarios that are responsive to new policies and business expectations was published in Nature Communications in 2018.[14]

Independent authors have also referenced the IGSM.[15][16]
