Presentation and Evaluation of the IPSL‐CM6A‐LR Climate Model

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2020
This study presents the global climate model IPSL‐CM6A‐LR developed at Institut Pierre‐Simon Laplace (IPSL) to study natural climate variability and climate response to natural and anthropogenic forcings as part of the sixth phase of the Coupled Model ...

Pattern decomposition of the transient climate response [PDF]

open access: yesTellus: Series A, Dynamic Meteorology and Oceanography, 2014
A two-pattern decomposition of the mean surface air temperature response to an increase of CO2 is assessed. This decomposition is based on a two-layer global energy-balance model and the hypothesis of separability in space and time. It is shown that this

Description and Climate Simulation Performance of CAS‐ESM Version 2

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2020
The second version of Chinese Academy of Sciences Earth System Model (CAS‐ESM 2) is described with emphasis on the development process, strength and weakness, and climate sensitivities in simulations of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6 ...

Focus of the IPCC Assessment Reports Has Shifted to Lower Temperatures

open access: yesEarth's Future, 2022
We focus on how different global temperature increases represented in IPCC reports have shifted over time. While the first four assessment reports had a roughly equal focus on temperatures above and below 2°C, the more recent fifth and sixth assessment ...

Which empirical model is best suited to simulate glacier mass balances?

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2017
Based on an extensive dataset of surface mass balances (SMB) from four glaciers in the French Alps for the period 1995–2012 and in the framework of enhanced temperature-index models, we investigate the sensitivity of seasonal glacier SMB to temperature ...

Ocean Warming Pattern Effect On Global And Regional Climate Change

open access: yesAGU Advances, 2020
Anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases cause the planet to warm, and the ocean uptake of anthropogenic heat slows the warming, preventing the climate system from equilibrating with the increasing radiative forcing.

High Climate Sensitivity in the Community Earth System Model Version 2 (CESM2)

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2019
The Community Earth System Model Version 2 (CESM2) has an equilibrium climate sensitivity (ECS) of 5.3 K. ECS is an emergent property of both climate feedbacks and aerosol forcing.

How may low‐cloud radiative properties simulated in the current climate influence low‐cloud feedbacks under global warming?

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2012
The influence of cloud modelling uncertainties on the projection of the tropical low‐cloud response to global warming is explored by perturbing model parameters of the IPSL‐CM5A climate model in a range of configurations (realistic general circulation ...

Forest riparian buffers reduce timber harvesting effects on stream temperature, but additional climate adaptation strategies are likely needed under future conditions

open access: yesJournal of Water and Climate Change, 2021
Stream water temperature imposes metabolic constraints on the health of cold-water fish like salmonids. Timber harvesting can reduce stream shading leading to higher water temperatures, while also altering stream hydrology.

Climate sensitivity [PDF]

open access: yesEarth and Environmental Science Transactions of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, 2015
ABSTRACTEarth has been habitable through most of its history, but the anthropogenically mediated greenhouse effect, if sufficiently strong, can threaten Earth's long-standing equability. This paper's main aim is to determine the strength of the anthropogenic greenhouse effect (the climate sensitivity) from observational data and basic physics alone ...
