Carbon dioxide and climate impulse response functions for the computation of greenhouse gas metrics:a multi-model analysis

TL;DR: In this paper, a carbon cycle-climate model intercomparison project is presented to quantify responses to emission pulses of different magnitudes injected under different conditions, and the best estimate for the Absolute Global Warming Potential, given by the time-integrated response in CO2 at year 100 multiplied by its radiative efficiency, is 92.5 × 10−15 yr W m−2 per kg-CO2.
Journal ArticleDOI

Near-real-time monitoring of global CO2 emissions reveals the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic

TL;DR: The key result is an abrupt 8.8% decrease in global CO2 emissions in the first half of 2020 compared to the same period in 2019, larger than during previous economic downturns or World War II.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anthropogenic radiative forcing time series from pre-industrial times until 2010

TL;DR: In this article, a time series of anthropogenic forcing of climate from pre-industrial times until 2010, for all well established forcing agents, are estimated for short-lived climate forcers, detailed chemical transport modelling and radiative transfer modelling using historical emission inventories are performed.
