Open AccessSurface warming and wetting due to methane’s long-wave radiative effects muted by short-wave absorption
Although greenhouse gases absorb primarily long-wave radiation, they also absorb short-wave radiation. Recent studies have highlighted the importance of methane short-wave absorption, which enhances its strato...

Open AccessAn integrated approach to quantifying uncertainties in the remaining carbon budget
The remaining carbon budget quantifies the future CO2 emissions to limit global warming below a desired level. Carbon budgets are subject to uncertainty in the Transient Climate Response to Cumulative CO2 Emissio...

Open AccessThe effect of rapid adjustments to halocarbons and N2O on radiative forcing
Rapid adjustments occur after initial perturbation of an external climate driver (e.g., CO2) and involve changes in, e.g. atmospheric temperature, water vapour and clouds, independent of sea surface temperature c...
