چکیده
We analyse global temperature and sea-level data for the past few decades and compare them to projections published in the third and fourth assessment reports of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). The results show that global temperature continues to increase in good agreement with the best estimates of the IPCC, especially if we account for the effects of short-term variability due to the El Niño/Southern Oscillation, volcanic activity and solar variability. The rate of sea-level rise of the past few decades, on the other hand, is greater than projected by the IPCC models. This suggests that IPCC sea-level projections for the future may also be biased low.

متن کاملFurther response to “Cosmic Rays, Carbon Dioxide and Climate” by Rahmstorf et al
Rahmstorf et al. [2004] published a “critique” of the article “Celectial driver of Phanerozoic Climate?” [Shaviv & Veizer, 2003]. Our rebuttal was published in Eos (and an unabridged version can be found at http://www.phys.huji.ac.il/~shaviv/ClimateDebate), together with with Rahmstorf et al.’s reply. Since Eos denied us the opportunity to respond to the latest allegations, we bring our respons...
متن کاملRecent climate observations compared to projections.
We present recent observed climate trends for carbon dioxide concentration, global mean air temperature, and global sea level, and we compare these trends to previous model projections as summarized in the 2001 assessment report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). The IPCC scenarios and projections start in the year 1990, which is also the base year of the Kyoto protocol, i...
