Journal ArticleDOI
Quantifying the consensus on anthropogenic global warming in the scientific literature
John Cook,Dana Nuccitelli,Sarah A. Green,Mark Richardson,Rob Painting,Robert G. Way,Peter G. Jacobs,Andrew G. Skuce +7 more
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
Kevin Cowtan,Robert G. Way +1 more
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
Northern Hemisphere permafrost map based on TTOP modelling for 2000–2016 at 1 km2 scale

Christiansen,Avirmed Dashtseren,Reynald Delaloye,Bo Elberling,Bernd Etzelmüller,Alexander Kholodov,Artem Khomutov,Andreas Kääb,Marina Leibman,Antoni G. Lewkowicz,Santosh Panda,Vladimir E. Romanovsky,Robert G. Way,Robert G. Way,Andreas Westergaard-Nielsen,Tonghua Wu,Jambaljav Yamkhin,Defu Zou +21 more
TL;DR: In this article, an equilibrium state model for the temperature at the top of the permafrost (TTOP model) for the 2000-2016 period, driven by remotely-sensed land surface temperatures, down-scaled ERA-Interim climate reanalysis data, tundra wetness classes and landcover map from the ESA Landcover Climate Change Initiative (CCI), was employed.
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
Kevin Cowtan,Zeke Hausfather,Ed Hawkins,Peter G. Jacobs,Michael E. Mann,Sonya K. Miller,Byron A. Steinman,Martin B. Stolpe,Robert G. Way +8 more
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.
