An assessment of Earth's climate sensitivity using multiple lines of evidence
We assess evidence relevant to Earth's equilibrium climate sensitivity per doubling of
atmospheric CO2, characterized by an effective sensitivity S. This evidence includes …

Causes of higher climate sensitivity in CMIP6 models
Equilibrium climate sensitivity, the global surface temperature response to CO doubling, has
been persistently uncertain. Recent consensus places it likely within 1.5–4.5 K. Global …

Observational constraint on cloud feedbacks suggests moderate climate sensitivity
GV Cesana, AD Del Genio - Nature Climate Change, 2021 - nature.com
Global climate models predict warming in response to increasing GHG concentrations, partly
due to decreased tropical low-level cloud cover and reflectance. We use satellite …
