Changing the radiative properties of the atmosphere — which is what increasing carbon dioxide does — must alter the
character of weather events as well as the climate.
Field measurements of tree death since last year's drought are also needed to refine the
estimate of the weather event's impact on the carbon cycle.
The first study tying a weather event to climate change didn't come out until 2004, making the

You say that the current anomalies in the US are well beyond the most extreme predictions from climate models, suggesting that the the chaotic
nature of weather events must play a role, too (though within an overall warming trend).
Even if you ignore Gavin's comments about emission scenarios and set a specific target which is independent of human decisions (such as a doubling of carbon dioxide) will you be able to determine the
statistics of weather events, or the weather events themselves, etc?
Individual weather events can't be linked directly to climate change, but when you start to have lots and

Finally, as was the case in my cranky response to the return of the polar vortex, the increasing exaggeration and
