Stabilisation scenarios are an important subset of inverse mitigation scenarios, describing futures in which emissions reductions are undertaken so that GHG concentrations, radiative forcing, or
global average temperature change do not exceed a prescribed limit.

Third, using a «semi-empirical» statistical model calibrated to the relationship between
temperature and
global sea - level
change over the last 2000 years, we find that, in alternative histories in which the 20th century
did not exceed the
average temperature over 500-1800 CE,
global sea - level rise in the 20th century would (with > 95 % probability) have been less than 51 % of its observed value.

change from 1985 (= mean 1980 - 1990) to 1999 (= mean 1994 to 2004).

Once such an IPCC exposition of the assumptions, complications and uncertainties of climate models was constructed and made public, it would immediately have to lead, in my view, to more questions from the informed public such as what
does calculating a mean
global temperature change mean to individuals who have to deal with local conditions and not a
global average and what are the assumptions, complications and uncertainties that the models contain when it comes to determining the detrimental and beneficial effects of a «
global» warming in localized areas of the globe.

If the different methods are not analysing different definitions then why

global average surface
temperature (GASTA) from decades ago alter when the method is
changed from month to month: which is the right determination any of the ones before a

ExxonMobil admits that the emissions trajectory of its Outlook for Energy (which
does not extend to 2100) «closely approximates in shape» an emissions profile of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate
Change (IPCC) that «would result in an
average global temperature increase of approximately 2.4 °C by 2100 from the industrial age.»
I have to say that it would be much wiser to just say we don't have a good number on the OLWR and carry on with our analysis of total
global heat
change and its relationship to
average global near - surface air
temperature.
• There are many risks of climate
change from increased pCO2 that don't involve
changes to the «
global average temperature».

change in
average global temperature can have serious serious consequences.
The new
global climate
change agreement establishes a revised goal of keeping
average global temperature rise «well below 2 degrees Celsius,» sets up a clear mechanism for countries» greenhouse gas reductions to be revisited every five years and, for the first time, commits every nation - state on Earth — 196 different entities — to
do something to address this collective threat... The Paris agreement marks a real turning point in history.
You know, I would have a lot less trouble believing climate scientists could actually measure
changes in
global average sea level to within a milimeter, if I didn't know how badly they overstate their confidence in «
global average temperature» in all its many manifestations, with all its many assumptions, models and WAGs.
«Our findings
do not contradict the main conclusions of the IPCC on impacts, adaptation and vulnerability related to climate
change... The negative impacts under unmitigated climate
change in the future pose substantial risks to most parts of the world, with risks increasing at higher
global average temperatures.»
While many scientists and climate
change activists hailed December's Paris agreement as a historic step forward for international efforts to limit
global warming, the landmark accord rests on a highly dubious assumption: to achieve the goal of limiting the rise in
global average temperature to less than 2 °C (much less the more ambitious goal of 1.5 °C), we don't just need to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide to essentially zero by the end of this century.
