Nicole S. Lovenduski,Neil C. Swart,Adrienne J. Sutton,John C. Fyfe,Galen A. McKinley,Christopher L. Sabine,Nancy L. Williams +6 more
TLDR
A unique fingerprint in global‐scale ΔpCO2 is found that is attributable to COVID, though the fingerprint is difficult to detect in individual model realizations unless the model is forced to force the model with a scenario that has four times the observed emissions reduction.Citations
