Persistence of inequality in regional warming patterns under net-zero and overshoot pathways, King, Andrew D, Clark, Spencer, Sengupta, Aditya, Pall, Pardeep, Meinshausen, Malte, Kulkarni, Ruchit, Lyu, Boying

The worst-case scenario for a high-emissions scenario has been revised downward – but the best-case option is now implausible

Nature Reviews Earth & Environment - El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) profoundly affects Australian weather, climate, ecosystems and socio-economic sectors. This Review presents...

We examine detectability of global, regional and local climate change measures using millennial-scale net zero CO2 emissions simulations Detectable changes under net zero are found in temperature...

Cimate scientists are more certain than ever that humans are changing the climate – but there are signs of hope on the horizon.

Abstract. Climate changes under net zero emissions will take many centuries to play out, particularly in the Southern Hemisphere and in the ocean and cryosphere. New millennial-length Earth System Mod...

Judy Curry unwittingly spills the beans

More than 85 scientists say that a recent U.S. Department of Energy report is full of errors and misrepresents climate science.

What do the next few months hold, weather-wise? For clues, we can look to the oceans around Australia.

Wildfire has shaped many ecosystems across Earth, and humans have in turn shaped fire and its interactions within a range of socio-ecological systems.…

Much of the public discourse around climate changes under net zero carbon dioxide emissions has been focused on global mean temperature changes after emissions cessation. More attention needs to be pa...

European heat extremes under net-zero emissions, Alastrué de Asenjo, Eduardo, King, Andrew David, Ziehn, Tilo

In some areas of NSW, more than 200 mm of rain has fallen in 24 hours. At the same time, dry conditions have gripped much of the continent.

Scaling of temperature extremes relative to global warming level after net-zero CO2 emissions is less than scaling during warming climates Temperature extreme scaling reductions after net-zero CO...

Why is it so warm across southern Australia this autumn? Where’s the rain? ‘Blocking’ high pressure systems are to blame, but the real culprit is climate change.

Abstract. Climate changes under net zero emissions will take many centuries to play out, particularly in the Southern Hemisphere and in the ocean and cryosphere. New millennial-length Earth System Mod...

Temperature stabilization does not occur immediately after net zero CO2 emissions at both the global and local levels The global mean temperature stabilizes 124 years after the cessation of emiss...

The atmosphere now has the highest carbon dioxide levels in the last 800,000 years – and global heat records have toppled yet again. Coincidence? Of course not

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), a peer reviewed journal of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) - an authoritative source of high-impact, original research that broadly spans...

Earth is crossing the 1.5°C limit outlined in the Paris Agreement, beyond which scientists predict catastrophic harm to systems supporting life on our planet.

What a first year with temperature 1.5 °C above the pre-industrial baseline implies for long-term temperature goals is unclear. Here the authors show that such a first year above the baseline is highl...

Alexandra Paton, who researches how to manage feral cat populations, says her PhD is important for Australia's wildlife but her income is lower than what she earned as a teenager at Macca's.

This record-breaking heat is primarily driven by humanity’s burning of fossil fuels. The warming won’t stop until we reach net-zero emissions.

Reports of a rare summer La Niña are premature. It is also foolish to look at such climate drivers in isolation. But seasonal forecasting is becoming more complicated as the planet warms.
