Phenology Feedbacks on Climate Change
Science, 2009 A longer growing season as a result of climate change will in turn affect climate through biogeochemical and biophysical effects.

A small climate-amplifying effect of climate-carbon cycle feedback [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2021 AbstractThe climate-carbon cycle feedback is one of the most important climate-amplifying feedbacks of the Earth system, and is quantified as a function of carbon-concentration feedback parameter (β) and carbon-climate feedback parameter (γ). However, the global climate-amplifying effect from this feedback loop (determined by the gain factor, g) has ...

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 We show that the seasonal cycles of clouds over the mid‐latitude oceans in the Northern Hemisphere are predictors of the responses of clouds to increasing sea‐surface temperatures globally.

Changing feedbacks in the climate–biosphere system [PDF]
Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, 2008 Ecosystems influence climate through multiple pathways, primarily by changing the energy, water, and greenhouse-gas balance of the atmosphere. Consequently, efforts to mitigate climate change through modification of one pathway, as with carbon in the Kyoto Protocol, only partially address the issue of ecosystem–climate interactions.

“Simpson's Law” and the Spectral Cancellation of Climate Feedbacks [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 Abstract We spectrally resolve the conventional clear‐sky temperature and water vapor feedbacks in an idealized single‐column framework, and show that the well‐known partial compensation of these feedbacks is actually due to an almost perfect cancellation of the spectral feedbacks at wavenumbers where H

Dynamic vegetation highlights first-order climate feedbacks and their dependence on the climate mean state [PDF]
Earth System DynamicsWe investigate how first-order albedo and water vapor radiative feedbacks are triggered by climate-vegetation interactions using mid-Holocene and pre-industrial climate simulations.

Dynamics of the flood response to slow-fast landscape-climate feedbacks [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences, 2015 The dynamical evolution of the flood response to landscape-climate feedbacks is evaluated in a joint nonlinear statistical-dynamical approach. For that purpose, a spatiotemporal sensitivity analysis is conducted on hydrological data from 1976–2008 ...

Solid Earth change and the evolution of the Antarctic Ice Sheet
Nature Communications, 2019 The evolution of the Antarctic Ice Sheet is driven by a combination of climate forcing and non-climatic feedbacks. In this review, the authors focus on feedbacks between the Antarctic Ice Sheet and the solid Earth, and the role of these feedbacks in ...

A cloud feedback emulator (CFE, version 1.0) for an intermediate complexity model [PDF]
Geoscientific Model Development, 2017 The dominant source of inter-model differences in comprehensive global climate models (GCMs) are cloud radiative effects on Earth's energy budget. Intermediate complexity models, while able to run more efficiently, often lack cloud feedbacks.

Global and regional importance of the direct dust-climate feedback
Nature Communications, 2018 Feedbacks between desert dust and climate might have amplified past climate changes, yet their role in future climate change is unclear. Here the authors find that dust feedbacks could play a key role in the future climates of Northern Africa, the Sahel,
