Abstract
Through comparative analysis of each of the studied scenarios, in terms of population growth and long-term dynamics of the effective number of LEO objects, we want to characterize and quantify the effect of such uncertainty sources on the long term projections of the space debris population performed with up to date evolutionary models. This characterization and quantification is a first necessary step to be able to study the robustness of mitigation and remediation measures to uncertainties affecting the long term evolution of the space debris population.
