Quantifying the consensus on anthropogenic global warming in the scientific literature

TL;DR: This paper analyzed the evolution of the scientific consensus on anthropogenic global warming (AGW) in the peer-reviewed scientific literature, examining 11 944 climate abstracts from 1991 to 2011 matching the topics "global climate change" or "global warming".
Journal ArticleDOI

Coverage bias in the HadCRUT4 temperature series and its impact on recent temperature trends

TL;DR: In this paper, two alternative approaches for reconstructing global temperatures are explored, one based on an optimal interpolation algorithm and the other a hybrid method incorporating additional information from the satellite temperature record.
Journal ArticleDOI

Extremes of summer climate trigger thousands of thermokarst landslides in a High Arctic environment.

TL;DR: An unprecedented 60-fold increase in RTS numbers for Banks Island, Canada, from 1984 to 2015 due to a warming summer climate is shown, providing additional evidence that ice-rich continuous permafrost terrain can be highly vulnerable to changing summer climate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Robust comparison of climate models with observations using blended land air and ocean sea surface temperatures

TL;DR: The authors quantifies a systematic bias in model-observation comparisons arising from differential warming rates between sea surface temperatures and surface air temperatures over oceans, and a further bias arises from the treatment of temperatures in regions where the sea ice boundary has changed.
