No your eyeball is right! There's another "other_anthropogenic" not included here. This is intended to align with the categories in DAMIP.

New paper in ERL in which we study the effect of a long-known issue in climate emulators: that we typically calibrate them on only 150 years of 4xCO2 ESM runs. This a problem as we know the climate isn't in equilibrium after this time, but running ESMs is 1/N

How well can we quantify when 1.5 °C of global warming has been exceeded? Abstract. Parties to the 2015 Paris Agreement agreed to limit the long-term increase in global average temperature to well below 2 °C and pursue efforts to keep temperatures below 1.5 °C relative to p...

New discussion paper just dropped that’s taken shall we say a little work to get this far … essd.copernicus.org/preprints/es... please be kind. Not on an at all sensitive topic in the slightest.

yeah... it's an offset relative to a historical (1750-2021) mean. The dips are due to large volcanic eruptions. "On average" the historical natural forcing is zero. I argue to use a truly pre-industrial reference for natural forcings as we did in IPCC AR6, but this doesn't make a big difference

D & A style attribution with fair and HadCRUT5 updated to 2025 (emissions extrapolated beyond 2022, but should make little difference)

Feedback-based sea level rise impact modelling for integrated assessment models with FRISIAv1.0 Abstract. Global warming is expected to lead to a substantial rise in coastal sea levels by the end of the century, which imposes future impacts and adaptation challenges on the coastal zone. Capturin...

The FRISIA sea-level rise model description is published today and selected as a highlight paper in Geoscientific Model Development gmd.copernicus.org/articles/18/...

FRISIA is designed to couple with IAMs, but can also be run standalone for sea-level rise projections from emissions scenarios.

In parallel to experiments run by complex climate models, we evaluate the simple climate models that are used as translations of knowledge from physical science to scenario projections

Cool, thanks Abby! I was aware of this paper but don't think I cited it (my bad) - the running to 2300 is there and we can compare the carbon sinks, but the experiments were concentration-driven, and didn't include the lower scenarios, and they don't have NorESM, which is a super interesting model!

Unfortunately not. These were from the CMIP6 ESGF - was really a shame that not many models extended beyond 2100.

temperature and CO2 projections from MPI-ESM1.2-LR and NorESM2-LM under three emissions scenarios to 2300

A sneak peak of hopefully what is to come in CMIP7. We ran two CMIP6 climate models in CO2 emissions driven mode to 2300 - and the responses in the long term are very different.

I should have known this...

There are 1.5°C no and low overshoot scenarios in AR5, but they are cooler in 2020 than we have observed, suggesting that mitigation would have started in the 2010s.

It would be good to do this consistently harmonized in the same simple climate model

yeh, precisely this! I mean, one of the successes of the Paris Agreement (or failure of pre-Paris climate policy?) is that nobody was really looking at 1.5°C scenarios before 2016. I'm just interested to see if anyone has done a like-for-like climate comparison. If not, I might :)

GHG and CO2 emissions plumes from emissions scenarios submitted to the IPCC Fifth Assessment Report Working Group III.

Has anybody ever looked at the IPCC AR5 scenario database and run them in a simple climate model? I'm curious to know how many would get close to 1.5°C - probably not many if the earliest net zero CO2 date is ~2060. Interesting to see how ambition has evolved over time at the low end

Rapid emissions cuts would avoid 64cm of ‘locked in’ sea level rise by 2300 - Carbon Brief Cutting emissions in line with the 1.5C warming limit, rather than following current climate policies, could curb long-term sea level rise by 64cm.
