Climate change 2013: the physical science basis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This report argues that it is extremely likely that human influence has been the dominant cause of the observed warming since the mid-20th century. This is an an unedited version of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change\u27s Working Group I ...

Uncertainty in the future change of extreme precipitation over the Rhine basin: the role of internal climate variability

open access: yes, 2015
Future changes in extreme multi-day precipitation will influence the probability of floods in the river Rhine basin. In this paper the spread of the changes projected by climate models at the end of this century (2081–2100) is studied for a 17-member ...

Improving the forecast quality of near-term climate projections by constraining internal variability based on decadal predictions and observations

open access: yesEnvironmental Research: Climate
Projections of near-term climate change in the next few decades are subject to substantial uncertainty from internal climate variability. Approaches to reduce this uncertainty by constraining the phasing of climate variability based on large ensembles of

Coping with Climatic Variability by Rain-fed Farmers in Dry Zone, Sri Lanka: Towards Understanding Adaptation to Climate Change [PDF]

open access: yes
Climate change introduces numerous uncertainties over the livelihoods of farming communities that depend heavily on weather and climate. Rain-fed farmers in developing countries are among the most vulnerable communities.

Global Impact Assessment of Internal Climate Variability on Maize Yield Under Climate Change

open access: yesEarth's Future
Internal climate variability (ICV) is well‐known to mask forced climate change patterns and is thus expected to also impact crop yield trends. To date, a global picture of ICV effect on crop yield projection remains unclear, which inhibits effective ...

A mechanism for decadal climate variability

open access: yes, 1996
We describe in this paper a mechanism for decadal climate variability that can lead to decadal climate cycles in the North Pacific and North Atlantic Oceans. A hierarchy of numerical models and observations are used to understand the fundamental dynamics
