Not exact matches

However, since their methodology suppresses most of the high frequency variability, one needs to be cautious when making comparisons between their reconstruction and relatively rapid events like the global warming of the last century.

Results show relatively increased warming in the global average over the 21st century owing to reconstruction of temperatures in high northern latitudes, supporting the findings of Cowtan & Way (2014) and Karl et al. (2015).

Because of its long life span and high global warming potential (GWP), even a relatively small amount of SF6 can impact the climate.

CH4 is relatively short - lived in the atmosphere (atmospheric lifetime on the order of a decade) relative to CO2 (atmospheric lifetime on the order of centuries) and therefore has a higher global warming potential over the shorter 20 - year time horizon (86 versus 34; Myhre et al. 2013).

Stabilizing CO2 equivalent concentrations at 450 ppm would only result in a 50 % likelihood of limiting global warming to 2 °C, and that it would be necessary to achieve stabilisation below 400 ppm to give a relatively high certainty of not exceeding 2 °C.

On top of that there's the methane and the volatile organic compounds that are unavoidably released from relatively uncontrolled combustion of solid biomass fuels — small quantities but high global warming indexes.
