«Modelling studies are also in moderately good agreement with observations during the first half of the 20th century when both anthropogenic and natural forcings are considered, although assessments of which forcings are important differ, with some studies finding that solar forcing is more important (Meehl et al., 2004) while other studies find that volcanic forcing (Broccoli et al., 2003) or internal variability (Delworth and Knutson, 2000) could be more important... The mid-century cooling that the model simulates in some regions is also observed, and is caused in the model by regional negative surface forcing from organic and black carbon associated with biomass burning.
This would suggest that the combination of anthropogenic forcing and internal variability may be sufficient to account for the observed early - century warming (as suggested by, e.g., Hegerl et al., 1996), although other recent studies have suggested that natural forcing may also have contributed to the early century warming (see Section 12.4.3).
