Environmental phenomena are often observed first, and then explained quantitatively. The
complexity of processes, the range of scales involved, and the lack of first principles make it …

Water vapor is a greenhouse gas that dominates Earth's terrestrial radiation absorption. As
the planetary temperature warms, forced by increasing CO 2 and other greenhouse gases …

Climate models have continued to be developed and improved since the AR4, and many
models have been extended into Earth System models by including the representation of …

Whether the characteristics of tropical cyclones have changed or will change in a warming
climate—and if so, how—has been the subject of considerable investigation, often with …

Recent coordinated efforts, in which numerous general circulation climate models have
been run for a common set of experiments, have produced large datasets of projections of …

Using the climate change experiments generated for the Fourth Assessment of the
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, this study examines some aspects of the …

This study describes comprehensive polling of transcription start and termination sites and
analysis of previously unidentified full-length complementary DNAs derived from the mouse …

A coordinated set of global coupled climate model [atmosphere–ocean general circulation
model (AOGCM)] experiments for twentieth-and twenty-first-century climate, as well as …

This chapter assesses the capacity of the global climate models used elsewhere in this
report for projecting future climate change. Confidence in model estimates of future climate …

Observations and simulations link anthropogenic greenhouse and aerosol emissions with
rapidly increasing Indian Ocean sea surface temperatures (SSTs). Over the past 60 years …
