We show that although increases in greenhouse - gas concentrations have driven the observed warming over the past century, approximately 60 % of the greenhouse - gas - induced warming has been offset by the combined response to other anthropogenic forcings, which is substantially greater than the fraction of global greenhouse - gas - induced warming that has been offset by these forcings.
But a new study published in the journal Science Advances has concluded that another impact of global climate change might help coral reefs survive increasing sea temperatures: «even a modest sea level rise can substantially reduce temperature extremes within tide - dominated reefs, thereby partially offsetting the local effects of future ocean warming,» the authors of the study write.
About 50 % of global warming may be attributed to water vapor, about 25 % clouds, and trace gases are the last 25 %, which we have increased substantially since the beginning of the industrial age.
