Human contribution to the European heatware of 2003
Article Abstract:
The study investigated the origins of long-term changes in decadal-mean European summer temperatures, determining the changes attributable to anthropogenic drivers of the climate system and changes attributable to natural drivers. Further it estimated the contribution of human-induced increases in atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases and other pollutants to the risk of the occurrence of unusually high mean summer temperatures throughout a large region of the continental Europe.

Uncertainty in predictions of the climate response to rising levels of greenhouse gases
Article Abstract:
Results from the 'climateprediction.net' experiment, the first multi-thousand-member grand ensemble of simulations using a general circulation model and thereby explicitly resolving regional details are presented. Model versions as realistic as other state-of-the-art climate models but with climate sensitivities ranging from less than 2K to more than 11 K are revealed.

A steep road to climate stabilization
Article Abstract:
A new approach for stabilizing the Earth's climate by stabilizing the concentration of the greenhouse gases is discussed. The author states that the anthropogenic emissions need to be reduced to zero for the purpose.
