Global warming in the pipeline
James E. Hansen, Makiko Sato, Leon Simons +14
Improved knowledge of glacial-to-interglacial global temperature change implies that fast-feedback equilibrium climate sensitivity (ECS) is 1.2 +/- 0.3°C (2) per W/m. Consis…
Young People's Burden: Requirement of Negative CO2 Emissions
James Hansen, Makiko Sato, Pushker Kharecha +9
Global temperature is a fundamental climate metric highly correlated with sea level, which implies that keeping shorelines near their present location requires keeping global tempe…
Scientific Case for Avoiding Dangerous Climate Change to Protect Young People and Nature
James Hansen, Pushker Kharecha, Makiko Sato +15
Global warming due to human-made gases, mainly CO2, is already 0.8°C and deleterious climate impacts are growing worldwide. More warming is 'in the pipeline' because Earth is out o…
Earth's Energy Imbalance and Implications
James Hansen, Makiko Sato, Pushker Kharecha +1
Improving observations of ocean heat content show that Earth is absorbing more energy from the sun than it is radiating to space as heat, even during the recent solar minimum. The…
Target atmospheric CO2: Supporting material
J. Hansen, M. Sato, P. Kharecha +7
Additional material supporting the article "Target atmospheric CO2: Where should humanity aim?"
Target atmospheric CO2: Where should humanity aim?
J. Hansen, M. Sato, P. Kharecha +7
Paleoclimate data show that climate sensitivity is ~3 deg-C for doubled CO2, including only fast feedback processes. Equilibrium sensitivity, including slower surface albedo feedba…
