2 Learning outcomes Section GCM: Climate models and projections explain what climate models are, why they are useful, what causes variability among models, and which are the most uncertain aspects of models understand how models are used to attribute observed change to human activities describe how future projections are developed discuss general changes expected in the coming decades for climate variables (temperature, precipitation, sea level, cryosphere, extreme events) GEOG 313/513 Fall 2016 Global Climate Change 2 Prof J.

18 Attribution of climate change to human activities Attribution of climate change to anthropogenic causes involves statistical analysis and the assessment of multiple lines of evidence to demonstrate that the observed changes are (1) unlikely to be due entirely to natural internal climate variability; (2) consistent with estimated or modeled responses to the given combination of anthropogenic and natural forcing; and (3) not consistent with alternative, physically plausible explanations of recent climate change IPCC, AR4, WG II, 2007 Global Climate Change 18 Prof J. Hicke
