A new international study co-led by IIASA researchers and Japanese partners aims to democratize the way global climate scenarios are developed. The authors propose a transparent, inclusive research ...

Climate change will shape everything about life in Australia—from the homes we live in and the food we grow to the risks of bushfires, floods, and heat waves. But what will that future look like? We ...

Current global climate models (GCMs) support with high confidence the view that rising greenhouse gases and other anthropogenic forcings account for nearly all observed global surface warming—slightly ...

Since the early 1980s, a period concurrent with a surge in global population from 4.5 to 8 billion and an expansion of global GDP from 11 to 100 trillion USD, atmospheric CO 2 concentrations have ...

Accurately simulating the climate system has been a challenge and aspiration since the advent of numerical modeling. Here, we use the spatial pattern of 2 m surface temperature to discuss the ...
