#regions		§Choose a set of regions. These correspond to sets used in various models, datasets and intercomparison projects - the appropriate set depends on the question to be investigated. You can even consider all individual nations or even subregions (choose All-land). 

 This menu features in both @regclimap (see  @usereg ) and @regemitmap. 

 This menu is also available in @attributeplot. Currently attribution only works for JCM12 and SRES4 region sets,  however it is anticipated that all attribution, distribution and socioeconomic calculations may eventually be made with any set of regions. 

#bord		§This module loads the polygon data from <a target='data' href='../data/poly.txt'> jcm/data/poly.txt</a> to make country/region borders in the maps. It is used by @regcli, @regclimap, @regemitmap. £§iobinfo

#reg		§This contains a list of the regions, used by @regshares, @costs, @distribplot, @costsplot. See @aboutregions, @regemitmap, @regions

#regintro		§³ Regions: ³ ²(see also @aboutregions, @regemitmap, @regions )²


#aboutregions		§The 12 JCM regions in @regemitmap are used in all @distribplot plots.
  The six regions in warm reds, yellows, browns correspond to Annex B countries which agreed an emissions reduction target under the Kyoto protocol. The cool greens and blues are the developing countries. The regions are composed of countries sharing similar percapita emission histories as well as geographical proximity, and have no political significance.

²°adju The legend is given by the strip of coloured squares to the right of any regional plot. Move your mouse over each one to see its name pop up. ²

²°cogs Note @responsibility module (@attributeplot panel ) uses a different set of regions. Complete circle -ref regclimap²

²  Note, a curve for Denmark was added to @distribplot. This is because JCM was initially developed in  Copenhagen.

Later we might make an option, to show specific curves for any country, or to make regions from any combination of countries.²

  <hr>Future regional emissions may be mitigated according to various formulae -see @stabilisation, @distribution, @regshares module 

 Other region sets are also available -see @regions

#regemitmap		§£^apptag This shows the colours of curves in @distribplot and @costsplot .  ² °cogs This plot is now made with the same flexible framework as @regclimap (both extend @mapplot and get polygons from @bord). It is anticipated to develop this panel to show a variety of region sets, and to show maps of socioeconomic data
  ££aboutregions

#distribplot		§£^apptag This plot shows CO2 emissions and socioeconomic data for twelve regions, from 1900 to 2100.   <li>See @aboutregions

Future Population, Energy, and GDP depend on SRES scenarios and illustrate some driving forces behind the scenarios.   <li>See @aboutsres

Future CO2 Emissions and Abatement depend on the combination of options from @emitmenu and @distribmenu in @mitigpanel.   <li> See @emitcc, @stabilisation,  @distribution

² °adju  Note: £§unspecified  ²

If @stabemit, @percapita, or @convpergdp are chosen, their parameter controls may appear on this plot. 

The Kyoto protocol options also appear here   <li>See @kyoto

The historical emissions and their correlation with the socioeconomic data are also interesting   <li>See @regiondatasource @histemitobserv
