Climate sensitivity constrained by temperature reconstructions over the past seven centuries
Article Abstract:
A demonstration is provided that observational estimates of climate sensitivity can be tightened, if reconstructions of Northern Hemisphere temperature over the past several centuries are considered. Large-ensemble energy balance modelling is used and the temperature response to past solar, volcanic and greenhouse gas are simulated forcing to determine which climate sensitivities yield simulations that are in agreement with proxy reconstructions.

Hydrocarbon-driven warming
Article Abstract:
The intense global warming and massive green-house-gas emissions occurred during initial Ecocene thermal maximum (IETM). The injection of huge amounts of organically derived carbon-dioxide, produced through oxidation of hydrocarbons, during the initial Eocene thermal maximum (IETM) is examined.

An early Cenozoic perspective on greenhouse warming and carbon-cycle dynamics
Article Abstract:
The article discusses the aspects of the early Cenozoic era on greenhouse warming and carbon-cycle dynamics. It would help for predicting the after-effects of the carbon emissions in the future.
