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

prj

rgcam loaded project

rdata_name

Name of the RData file. It must contain the queries in a list

scen_name

Vector names of the GCAM scenarios 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")

mort_param

Method to compute the premature mortality estimates used in the plotting: GBD, GEMM, or FUSION

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

recompute

If set to T, recomputes the function output. Otherwise, if the output was already computed once, it uses that value and avoids repeating computations. By default=F

Value

Premature mortality attributable to PM2.5 exposure for each TM5-FASST regions for all years (# mortalities).
