01 Sep 1991 | Increasing greenhouse-gas concentrations in the atmosphere are expected to produce maximum warming in high latitudes, displacing the potential boreal forest zone of the northern hemisphere far to the north. |
| If CO/sub 2/ and trace gas concentrations continue to rise as projected and model calculations are essentially correct, the increasing global scale warming should become much more evident over the next few decades. | |
| Paleobotanical evidence indicates a fourfold increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration and suggests an associated 3 degrees to 4 degrees C "greenhouse" warming across the boundary. | |
| The current consensus is that some global atmospheric warming will occur as a result of increasing "greenhouse" gases. | |
866 Citations | The main greenhouse gas, water vapour, will increase in response to global warming and further enhance it. |
88 Citations | Halocarbons, once thought to be the most potent greenhouse gases, are now believed to have only a slight global warming effect because they destroy ozone, itself a strong greenhouse gas. |
| Among all, CO2 is the largest contributor to global warming. | |
| Nevertheless the results confirm previous analyses showing that greenhouse gas increases explain most of the global warming observed in the second half of the twentieth century. | |
43 Citations | The U. S. is by far the largest greenhouse gas emitter, ... |
| We find that the level of the long-term emissions floor has a strong influence on allowed 2020 and 2050 emissions for two degrees of global warming at a given probability. | |
| This study concludes the greenhouse-gas-induced warming is largely overwhelming the other forcings. | |
46 Citations | These calculations suggest that regardless of emission scenario or system sensitivity, future greenhouse warming will be large even on a geological scale. |
| The study also reveals the importance of greenhouse gases to the warming of the planet earth. |
