2 Truth in advertising: Who do I work for? PCMDI: Program for Cimate Mode Diagnosis and Intercomparison Service: Coordinate internationa cimate modeing simuations (standard benchmark experiments) Enabe broader science community to anayze and evauate modes Goa: Quantify how we modes simuate present-day cimate and evauate uncertainty in projections of future cimate change PCMDI was estabished in 1989 Has been at Lawrence Livermore Nationa Lab since then 2
3 Detection and attribution research has made important contributions to the concusions of IPCC assessments The baance of evidence suggests a discernibe human infuence on goba cimate There is new and stronger evidence that most of the warming observed over the ast 50 years is attributabe to human activities Most of the observed increase in gobay averaged temperatures since the mid-20 th th century is very ikey* due to the observed increase in anthropogenic greenhouse gas concentrations 3

10 Detection and attribution defined Detection of cimate change The process of showing that an observed change is highy unusua in a statistica sense Attribution of cimate change The process of estabishing cause and effect reationships 10
11 Why is detection and attribution work important? It is another form of mode evauation Successfu simuation of historica changes in cimate enhances our confidence in projections of future cimate change In an environment where there is sti poitica debate regarding the reaity of human effects on goba cimate, it is imperative to have sound science on the nature and causes of cimate change 11

13 Mutipe ines of evidence on which discernibe human infuence concusions are based 1. Basic physics evidence Physica understanding of the cimate system and the heat-trapping properties of greenhouse gases 2. Circumstantia evidence Quaitative agreement between observed cimate changes and mode predictions of human-caused cimate changes (warming of oceans, and surface and troposphere, water vapor increases, etc.) 3. Paeocimate evidence Temperature reconstructions enabe us to pace the warming of the 20th century in a onger-term context 4. Fingerprint evidence Rigorous statistica comparisons between modeed and observed patterns of cimate change 13
14 What is cimate fingerprinting? Strategy: Search for a computer mode-predicted pattern of cimate change (the fingerprint ) in observed cimate records Assumption: Each factor that infuences cimate has a unique signature in cimate records Method: Standard signa processing techniques Advantage: Fingerprinting aows researchers to make rigorous tests of competing hypotheses regarding the causes of recent cimate change 14

26 No history of detection and attribution work woud be compete without discussion of the great MSU debate Inconvenient observations the apparent ack of tropospheric warming in sateite data sateite measurements over 35 years show no significant warming in the ower atmosphere, which is an essentia part of the goba-warming theory. James Schesinger (former U.S. Secretary of Energy, Secretary of Defense, and Director of the CIA), Cod Facts on Goba Warming, L.A. Times, January 22,
27 Using microwave sounders to measure atmospheric temperature from space Figure and text courtesy of Car Mears, RSS Higher temperatures = more microwave emissions from oxygen moecues By choosing different microwave frequencies, different ayers in the atmosphere can be measured Much of the scientific focus has been on measurements of the temperature of the owest 7 8 km of the atmosphere 27
28 Which groups have been invoved in constructing Cimate Data Records from MSU information? 28
29 The UAH sateite dataset impied that the troposphere cooed as the tropica surface warmed 29
30 The RSS sateite data showed that the troposphere warmed by more than the surface 30
31 What factors contribute to these differences? Loca measurement time for each sateite drifts due to orbita drift This eads to drifts in the samping of the Earth s daiy temperature cyce These drifts need to be removed, or they can affect ong-term trends Ascending LECT (Hrs.)

32 Three papers in Science partiay resoved the great MSU debate An eary sateite-based anaysis of the temperature of the tropica troposphere has a spurious cooing trend Weather baoon estimates of the temperature of the tropica troposphere aso contain a spurious cooing trend When errors in the sateite and weather baoon data are accounted for, both modes and observations show warming of the tropica troposphere reative to the surface 32
33 Resoution? Previousy reported discrepancies between the amount of warming near the surface and higher in the atmosphere have been used to chaenge the reiabiity of cimate modes and the reaity of human-induced goba warming This significant discrepancy no onger exists (from Preface of U.S. Cimate Change Science Program Report, May 2006) 33

35 Looking towards the future In a post-ipcc AR4 word, is the science done and dusted? What wi the roe of detection and attribution research be in AR5? 35
36 Key scientific issues for future detection and attribution ( D&A ) studies 1. Most fingerprint work has focused on goba-scae changes in individua, primary cimate variabes Can we identify human effects on cimate at continenta to regiona scaes? Can we identify human fingerprints in variabes of direct reevance to cimatechange impacts? (e.g., timing of stream fow, snowpack depth) Can we attribute shifts in the distributions of pant and anima species to human infuences? (the doube attribution probem) 36
37 Key scientific issues for future detection and attribution ( D&A ) studies 2. We now ive in a muti-mode word, yet most D&A studies to date have been performed with individua modes Is it a mode democracy ( One mode, one vote? ) Or shoud we pay more attention to modes that do a better job in capturing aspects of present-day cimate that we care about? 37
38 Key scientific issues for future detection and attribution ( D&A ) studies 3. We cannot confidenty attribute any specific extreme event to humaninduced cimate change But can we make informed scientific statements about the infuence of human activities on the ikeihood of extreme events? (the operationa attribution issue) 38
39 Evauation of Fractiona Attributabe Risk Risk of European heat-wave exceeding 1.6 C thresho d with and without human infuence (Stott, Stone, and Aen, Nature, 2004) 0.8 Estimated ikeihood Average simuation omitting human infuence Average mode simuation with combined human and natura effects Number of occurrences per 1,000 years 39

41 Structure of tak 41
42 Concusions We have identified human fingerprints in a number of different aspects of the cimate system We have moved beyond temperature ony detection and attribution Criticisms eveed at IPCC Second Assessment Report ( you are ony ooking at surface temperature changes ) are no onger vaid The cimate system is teing us a physicay- and internay-consistent story The story s message: Natura causes aone cannot expain the observed changes Many scientists at dozens of universities and research institutions around the word have heped to te this story 42
