Journal ArticleDOI
Contributions to accelerating atmospheric CO2 growth from economic activity, carbon intensity, and efficiency of natural sinks
Josep G. Canadell,Corinne Le Quéré,Michael R. Raupach,Christopher B. Field,Erik T. Buitenhuis,Philippe Ciais,Thomas J. Conway,Nathan P. Gillett,Richard A. Houghton,Gregg Marland +9 more
TL;DR: The growth rate of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), the largest human contributor to human-induced climate change, is increasing rapidly and three processes contribute to this rapid increase: emissions, global economic activity, carbon intensity of the global economy, and the increase in airborne fraction of CO2 emissions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of human influence on twentieth-century precipitation trends
Xuebin Zhang,Francis W. Zwiers,Gabriele C. Hegerl,F. Hugo Lambert,Nathan P. Gillett,Susan Solomon,Peter A. Stott,Toru Nozawa +7 more
TL;DR: It is shown that anthropogenic forcing has had a detectable influence on observed changes in average precipitation within latitudinal bands, and that these changes cannot be explained by internal climate variability or natural forcing.
Journal ArticleDOI
The proportionality of global warming to cumulative carbon emissions
TL;DR: It is shown that the carbon–climate response (CCR), defined as the ratio of temperature change to cumulative carbon emissions, is approximately independent of both the atmospheric CO2 concentration and its rate of change on these timescales.

Journal ArticleDOI
Saturation of the Southern Ocean CO2 Sink Due to Recent Climate Change
Corinne Le Quéré,Christian Rödenbeck,Erik T. Buitenhuis,Thomas J. Conway,Ray L. Langenfelds,Antony Gomez,Casper Labuschagne,Michel Ramonet,Takakiyo Nakazawa,Nicolas Metzl,Nathan P. Gillett,Martin Heimann +11 more
TL;DR: It is estimated that the Southern Ocean sink of CO2 has weakened between 1981 and 2004 by 0.08 petagrams of carbon per year per decade relative to the trend expected from the large increase in atmospheric CO2.
