calcCapital: Calculate macroeconomic capital stock

In pik-piam/mrremind: MadRat REMIND Input Data Package

Calculate macroeconomic capital stock

Description

Compute macroeconomic capital stock based on capital intensities from PWT and GDP scenarios from mrdrivers. The PWT capital intensities are used up until 2010. After that, the capital intensities converge towards that of Japan in 2010, at speeds that vary across scenarios. The final capital stocks are the product of the capital intensities and the gdp scenarios from mrdrivers.
