A less sensitive climate system would mean average warming of less than 2 degrees C and, therefore, fewer ramifications from global warming. (scientificamerican.com)
The scaling process removes the difference in magnitude between the larger average warming trends in the 20th century simulations, and the smaller trends in the control. (skepticalscience.com)
Interestingly, the models that best simulate the recent past of these energy exchanges between the planet and its surroundings tend to project greater - than - average warming in the future. (phys.org)
