-- Ocean warming is being reported in the tiniest units possible (joules)-- a unit that means nothing to the general public, but sounds «big» (because there's a bunch of them); if it were reported in degrees C (which people can relate to), the warming would be a few thousandths of a degree per year

It's the only one of the seven whose growth is linear, rising by 7 % for 1.0 C of warming of the surface air temperature [SAT], and, in part for this reason, is also the only one included in the calculation of the scenarios reported in AR5 by IPCC.

means that up to 0.3 C of that warming * could * be «natural», the IPCC report has already accepted that there must be room for up to 0.3 C cooling should that (potentially) natural variability be reversed.

This illustration, using figures from the most recent 2014 IPCC report, depicts that because only 800 gigatons of CO2 can be emitted by humanity before creating a 66 % probability that a 2 degree C warming limit will be exceeded and humans have by 2011 already emitted 530 gigatons of CO2, there are only 270 gigatons of CO2 that may be emitted after 2011 to limit warming to 2 degrees C. (For a more detailed explanation of these figures see, Pidcock 2013)

In summary, a strong case can be made that the US emissions reduction commitment for 2025 of 26 % to 28 % clearly fails to pass minimum ethical scrutiny when one considers: (a) the 2007 IPCC report on which the US likely relied upon to establish a 80 % reduction target by 2050 also called for 25 % to 40 % reduction by developed countries by 2020, and (b) although reasonable people may disagree with what «equity» means under the UNFCCC, the US commitments can't be reconciled with any reasonable interpretation of what «equity» requires, (c) the United States has expressly acknowledged that its commitments are based upon what can be achieved under existing US law not on what is required of it as a mater of justice, (d) it is clear that more ambitious US commitments have been blocked by arguments that alleged unacceptable costs to the US economy, arguments which have ignored US responsibilities to those most vulnerable to climate change, and (e) it is virtually certain that the US commitments can not be construed to be a fair allocation of the remaining carbon budget that is available for the entire world to limit warming to 2 °C.

A new report published by the Climate Institute says Australia could avoid lengthy heatwaves and help save the Great Barrier Reef by meeting the Paris Agreement's 1.5 C global warming goal.

From the middle of the 20th century and through the 1970s, it was common for scientists to report a rapid warming of «nearly 1 ° C «between about 1890 and 1940 (Agee, 1980), a warming accompanied by «catastrophic» and «violent» glacier retreat.

Recent IPCC reports claim that the most probable value of the temperature rise for doubling is ∆ T2 = 3 C. Substituting this value and a warming of ∆ T = 6 C into Eq.

Now, after NASA's report showing that September 2016 was 1.13 C hotter than 1880s averages (or 0.91 C hotter than NASA's 20th - century baseline measure), this year is setting up to be the warmest ever recorded by a wide margin.

However, the IPCC projection to 2030 in the Fourth Assessment Report (chapter 10 Executive Summary) is for warming of 0.2 deg C (not 0.3) per decade.

But it does show that the IPCC forecasts of 0.2 C warming per decade (made both in the AR4 and previous TAR reports) were incorrect.

The maximal 11 C of centennial warming they reported still gets bandied about as a likely possibility.

2014 was not a record for global land areas [4th only] 2014 was not a record for the entire land oceans for Southern Hemisphere (2nd only) It was a record only for Northern Hemisphere oceans SST anomalies and only the North Pacific showed extra warming mostly as shown on Bob Tisdale's monthly reports of Ocean SST's The North Pacific SST has risen steadily from an anomaly of about 0.3 C in 2010 to almost 0.7 C in 2014.

I should also have made the point that using the same Figures 4.4 and 4.5 from the referenced report, that one can conclude most of the HadCRUT4 global average surface temperature warming observed from 1970 — present was due to NATURAL causes, as 0.3 C of the approx. 0.55 C warming was due to the 62 year natural cycle with amplitude of + / - 0.15 C.

UN draft report says missing 1.5 C warming target will multiply hunger, migration and conflict, but staying under will require unprecedented global cooperation

The deep Southern Ocean alone is very likely warming at 0.03 C / decade, for which AR5 reports 48 TW warming since at least 1992.

Quite clearly the last IPCC report hadn't claimed 0.2 C / decade warming over the last 60 years.

The statement comes on the heels of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's (IPCC) Fifth Assessment Report (AR5), which found that emissions related to human activities must not exceed 1 trillion tonnes C (1000 PgC) if we are to have a likely chance of limiting warming to 2 °C.

The Australian writes: «The 2007 assessment report said the planet was warming at a rate of 0.2 C every decade, but according to Britain's The Daily Mail the draft update report says the true figure since 1951 has been 0.12 C.»

What this means: In their last hugely influential report in 2007, the IPCC claimed the world was warming at 0.2 C per decade.

While I am pretty sure IPCC won't repeat the silly mistake of projecting global warming of 0.2 C per decade for the next two decades (as it did in AR4), it will be interesting to see whether or not IPCC modifies its AR5 report to include the possibility of continued global cooling over the next two or three decades despite unabated human GHG emissions and concentrations expected to reach new record levels.

The UNEP report is particularly relevant to the short - term situation given that the international community has agreed to limit future warming to prevent catastrophic warming to 2 ° C or perhaps 1.5 ° C if later studies demonstrate that a 1.5 ° C warming limit is necessary to prevent catastrophic harms.

Dr Pfister reported to Hubert Lamb that for several decades prior to 1564 the Swiss climate was on average 0.4 c warmer than today (1990's) In Switzerland, the first particularly cold winters appear to have begun in the 1560s, with cold springs beginning around 1568, and with 1573 the first unusually cold summer (Pfister, 1995).

C warming rate in the 2007 report relates only to the previous 15 years whereas the 0.12 C figure in the forthcoming report relates to the half - century since 1951.

But the new report says the observed warming over the more recent 15 years to 2012 was just 0.05 C per decade - below almost all computer predictions.
