Steven C. Sherwood,Mark J. Webb,James D. Annan,Kyle C. Armour,Piers M. Forster,Julia C. Hargreaves,Gabriele C. Hegerl,S A Klein,Kate Marvel,Kate Marvel,Eelco J. Rohling,Eelco J. Rohling,Masahiro Watanabe,Timothy Andrews,Pascale Braconnot,Christopher S. Bretherton,Gavin L. Foster,Zeke Hausfather,A. S. von der Heydt,Reto Knutti,Thorsten Mauritsen,Joel R. Norris,Cristian Proistosescu,Maria Rugenstein,Gavin A. Schmidt,Katarzyna B. Tokarska,Mark D. Zelinka +26 more
TL;DR: Evidence relevant to Earth's equilibrium climate sensitivity per doubling of atmospheric CO2, characterized by an effective sensitivity S, is assessed, using a Bayesian approach to produce a probability density function for S given all the evidence, and promising avenues for further narrowing the range are identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polar amplification dominated by local forcing and feedbacks
Malte F. Stuecker,Cecilia M. Bitz,Kyle C. Armour,Cristian Proistosescu,Sarah M. Kang,Shang-Ping Xie,Doyeon Kim,Shayne McGregor,Wenjun Zhang,Sen Zhao,Sen Zhao,Wenju Cai,Wenju Cai,Y. Dong,Fei-Fei Jin +14 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors determine the causes of polar amplification using climate model simulations in which CO2 forcing is prescribed in distinct geographical regions, with the linear sum of climate responses to regional forcings replicating the response to global forcing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Attributing Historical and Future Evolution of Radiative Feedbacks to Regional Warming Patterns using a Green’s Function Approach: The Preeminence of the Western Pacific
TL;DR: In this paper, global radiative feedbacks have been found to vary in global climate model (GCM) simulations, driven with historical patterns of sea surface temperatures (SSTs) and...
Journal ArticleDOI
Slow climate mode reconciles historical and model-based estimates of climate sensitivity
TL;DR: Estimates of climate sensitivity from models and observations are reconciled by accounting for slowly responding climate mode and curvature in the radiative response to warming from an evolving contribution of interannual to centennial modes of radiativeresponse.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intermodel spread in the pattern effect and its contribution to climate sensitivity in CMIP5 and CMIP6 models
Y. Dong,Kyle C. Armour,Mark D. Zelinka,Cristian Proistosescu,David S. Battisti,Chen Zhou,Timothy Andrews +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated inter-model differences in the magnitude of the pattern effect and how these differences contribute to the spread in the effective equilibrium climate sensitivity (ECS) within CMIP5 and CMIP6 models.
