Delayed emergence of a global temperature response after emission mitigation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)A major step towards achieving the goals of the Paris agreement would be a measurable change in the evolution of global warming in response to mitigation of anthropogenic emissions. The inertia and internal variability of ... -
Earlier emergence of a temperature response to mitigation by filtering annual variability
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The rate of global surface warming is crucial for tracking progress towards global climate targets, but is strongly influenced by interannual-to-decadal variability, which precludes rapid detection of the temperature ... -
Half a degree and rapid socioeconomic development matter for heatwave risk
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)While every society can be exposed to heatwaves, some people suffer far less harm and recover more quickly than others from their occurrence. Here we project indicators of global heatwave risk associated with global warming ... -
Local biomass burning is a dominant cause of the observed precipitation reduction in southern Africa
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)Observations indicate a precipitation decline over large parts of southern Africa since the 1950s. Concurrently, atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases and aerosols have increased due to anthropogenic activities. ... -
Overcoming global inequality is critical for land-based mitigation in line with the Paris Agreement
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Transformation pathways for the land sector in line with the Paris Agreement depend on the assumption of globally implemented greenhouse gas (GHG) emission pricing, and in some cases also on inclusive socio-economic ... -
Reply to: Uncertainty in near-term temperature evolution must not obscure assessments of climate mitigation benefits
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)In response to our recent paper1 (hereafter SFL20) concerning the relation between natural variability in the climate system and the time to detect a response to emissions mitigation, Lanson et al.2 (hereafter L22) call ...
