ARTICLES NATURE CLIMATE CHANGE
(ref. 16), Goddard Insitute for Space Studies Surface Temperature (GISTEMP)17 and National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration Merged Land Ocean Global Surface Temperature Analysis (NOAAGlobalTemp)18 datasets yield estimates of observed GSAT warming in 2010–2019 of 1.18 °C, 1.18 °C and 1.12 °C, respectively (Supplementary Table 1). For the remainder of the study, we primarily report results based on the non-infilled HadCRUT4 dataset, and to ensure a like-for-like comparison, we use masked and blended model output when comparing with HadCRUT4 observations, including in all regressions. However, we report attributable warming based on simulated glob-ally complete GSAT.
Attribution of global mean temperature changesTo quantify the contributions of individual forcings to observed trends, we used the CMIP6 (ref. 12) Detection and Attribution Model Intercomparison Project (DAMIP)19 simulations from the 13 CMIP6 models for which the necessary simulations were avail-able (Fig. 1b, Extended Data Fig. 1 and Supplementary Table 2): the Australian Community Climate and Earth System Simulator (ACCESS-ESM1-5)20, the Beijing Climate Center Climate System
Model (BCC-CSM2-MR)21, the Canadian Earth System Model ver-sion 5 (CanESM5)22, the Community Earth System Model version 2 (CESM2)23, the sixth generation Centre National de Recherches Météorologique Coupled Model (CNRM-CM6-1)24, the Flexible Global Ocean-Atmosphere-Land System Model grid-point version 3 (FGOALS-g3)25, the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory Earth System Model version 4 (GFDL-ESM4)26, the Goddard Insitute for Space Studies climate model (GISS-E2-1-G)27, the Hadley Centre Global Environment Model version 3 (HadGEM3-GC31-LL)28, the Institut Pierre-Simon Laplace Climate Model (IPSL-CM6A-LR)29, the Model for Interdisciplinary Research on Climate version 6 (MIROC6)30, the Meteorological Research Institute Earth System Model (MRI-ESM2-0)31 and the Norwegian Earth System Model (NorESM2-LM)32. We primarily used output from four experi-ments: historical-ssp245 (driven with changes in all anthropogenic and natural forcings), hist-aer (driven with changes in anthropo-genic aerosol emissions and burdens only), hist-nat (driven with changes in natural forcings only) and hist-GHG (driven with changes in well-mixed greenhouse gas concentrations only). These CMIP6 historical-ssp245 simulations show very little net anthropo-genic warming before the 1960s (Fig. 1b). This contrasts with the CMIP5 historical simulations, which showed on average approxi-mately 0.2 °C warming by the mid-twentieth century8. This could be due in part to a stronger aerosol forcing or response in these CMIP6 models. If these CMIP6 simulations are correct, this would imply that there was very little net anthropogenic contribution to the early twentieth century warming, and that almost all anthropo-genic warming has occurred since the 1960s. We use global mean temperature in our main attribution analysis, as previous work7,33 has shown that including more spatial detail may not result in more robust results, perhaps because model uncertainty in spatial patterns of response is larger. We use five-year means rather than decadal means33,34, in an attempt to better constrain the natural forcing response, which includes the short-timescale response to volcanic eruptions. Internal variability was estimated from intra-ensemble anomalies (Methods).
Regression coefficients of observed temperature changes against the simulated responses of individual models to natural (NAT) and anthropogenic (ANT) forcings are shown in Fig. 2a (Methods). The anthropogenic response is detected using 12 of 13 models (the uncertainty ranges on the ANT regression coefficients are above zero). The only exception is ACCESS-ESM1-5, which exhibits apparently unrealistic GMST evolution in its historical simulations, with almost no warming before 1980 (ref. 20) (Fig. 1a). By contrast, the natural forcing response is only detected using CanESM5, CESM2, CNRM-CM6-1, FGOALS-g3 and IPSL-CM6A-LR, and its regression coefficient is significantly less than unity using 7 of the 13 models, meaning that the simulated NAT response in these models is significantly stronger than observed. The natural forcing response appears to be somewhat less detectable and consistent based on these CMIP6 simulations than using CMIP5 simulations8,33–35. On the basis of this regression, the combined anthropogenic response is of realistic magnitude in ACCESS-ESM1-5, BCC-CSM2-MR, CESM2, CNRM-CM6-1, FGOALS-g3, GISS-E2-1-G, HadGEM3-GC31-LL, IPSL-CM6A-LR and NorESM2-LM, significantly overestimated by CanESM5 (ref. 22) (also apparent from Fig. 1a), and significantly underestimated by GFDL-ESM4, MIROC6 and MRI-ESM2-0. Note that it is expected that significant differences between the simulated climate response in models and observations can increasingly be identified as the observational record lengthens.
The realism of the scaled simulated responses to each set of forc-ings can be assessed by comparing residual observed variability, after subtraction of these responses, with simulated internal vari-ability. The results of a residual consistency test33,36 (Fig. 2c) indicate that residuals are significantly larger than expected based on pooled simulated internal variability for ACCESS-ESM1-5, CanESM5,

Zusammenfassung (detection & attribution)
• Es ist extrem wahrscheinlich, dass mehr als 50% der zwischen 1951 und 2010 beobachteten globalen Temperaturänderungen auf den Menschen zurückzuführen ist
• Treibhausgase haben dazu wahrscheinlich 0.5-1.3 °C beigetragen• Andere anthropogene Antriebskräfte (z.B) Aerosole hatten wahrscheinlich
einen Effekt von -0.6°C bis 0.1 °C• Interne Variabilität und natürliche Klimaantriebe hatten jeweils einen
Effekt zwischen -0.1 und 0.1 °C• Zusammengenommen sind diese Trends konsistent mit der Erwärmung von
0.6-0.7°C in dieser Periode – Dies gilt für alle Kontinente (bis auf die Antarktis, wegen unzureichender
Messungen)

Figure 10.1. Several steps from emissions to climate response contribute to the overall uncertainty of a
climate model projection. These uncertainties can be quantified through a combined effort of observation,
process understanding, a hierarchy of climate models, and ensemble simulations. In a comprehensive climate
model, physical and chemical representations of processes permit a consistent quantification of uncertainty.
Note that the uncertainty associated with the future emission path is of an entirely different nature and not
part of Chapter 10. Bottom row adapted from Figure 10.25, A1B scenario, for illustration only.

timeseries of annual emission (PgC yr–1). Dashed lines represent the historical estimates and RCP emissions calculated
by the integrated assessment models (IAM) used to define the RCP scenarios, solid lines and plumes show results from
CMIP5 ESMs (model mean, with 1 standard deviation shaded). Bottom: cumulative emissions for the historical period
(1860–2005) and 21st century (defined in CMIP5 as 2006–2100) for historical estimates and RCP scenarios. Left bars
are cumulative emissions from the IAMs, right bars are the CMIP5 ESMs multi-model mean estimate, and dots denote
individual ESM results. From the CMIP5 ESMs results, total carbon in the land-atmosphere-ocean system can be
tracked and changes in this total must equal fossil fuel emissions to the system. Hence the compatible emissions are
given by cumulative Emissions = ǻCA + ǻCL + ǻCO , while emission rate = d/dt [CA +CL +CO], where CA, CL, CO are
carbon stored in atmosphere, land and ocean respectively. Other sources and sinks of CO2 such as from volcanism,
sedimentation or rock weathering, which are very small on centennial timescales are not considered here. {Box 6.4;

Zusammenfassung(Klimawandelprojektionen)
• Die relativen Muster des Klimawandels gleichen sich zwischen dem Anfang und Ende des 21sten Jahrhunderts.
• Interannuale Variabilität wird einen starken Einfluss auf das Klima behalten, besonders in nächsten Dekaden und auf regionaler Skala.
• Erst ab Mitte des 21sten Jahrhunderts unterscheiden sich Szenarien deutlicher
• Die Reduzierung der Unsicherheiten in Temperaturprognosen ist hauptsächlich durch den neuen Ansatz (RCP Szenarios) bedingt, da die Kohlenstoff-Klimainteraktionen die Projektionen nicht beeinflussen, und nicht durch verbessertes Verständnis
• Die erhöhten Abschätzungen des Meeresspiegelanstiegs ist durch eine Verbesserung der Modellierungen von dynamischen Land-Eis Prozessen (Gletscher)

Ice accumulation records from ice sheets and glaciers in
polar, mid and tropical latitudes can provide records of cli-
mate variability that are resolvable at an annual, sometimes
seasonal level. Isotopic signatures in the ice itself yield quan-
titative information on past temperature and hydrological
regimes. This can be set alongside records of changing
atmospheric trace gases and dust/aerosol loading from the
same core

Using inorganic carbon measurements from an international survey effort in the1 9 9 0 s and a tracer-based separation technique, we estimate a global oceanicanthropogenic carbondioxide (CO2 ) sink for theperiod from 1 8 0 0 to 1 9 9 4 of 1 1 8 !1 9 petagramsof carbon. Theoceanic sink accounts for"4 8 %of the total fossil-fueland cement-manufacturing emissions, implying that the terrestrial biosphere wasa net source of CO2 to the atmosphere of about 3 9 ! 2 8 petagrams of carbon forthis period. The current fraction of total anthropogenic CO2 emissions stored in theocean appears to be about one-third of the long-term potential.
Since the beginning of the industrial period inthe late 18th century, i.e., over the anthropo-cene (1), humankind has emitted large quan-tities of CO2 into the atmosphere, mainly as aresult of fossil-fuel burning, but also becauseof land-use practices, e.g., deforestation (2).Measurements and reconstructions of the at-mospheric CO2 history reveal, however, thatless than half of these emissions remain in theatmosphere (3). The anthropogenic CO2 thatdid not accumulate in the atmosphere musthave been taken up by the ocean, by the landbiosphere, or by a combination of both. The
relative roles of the ocean and land bio-sphere as sinks for anthropogenic CO2 overthe anthropocene are currently not known.Although the anthropogenic CO2 budgetfor the past two decades, i.e., the 1980s and1990s, has been investigated in detail (3),the estimates of the ocean sink have notbeen based on direct measurements ofchanges in the oceanic inventory of dis-solved inorganic carbon (DIC).
Recognizing the need to constrain the oce-anic uptake, transport, and storage of anthro-pogenic CO2 for the anthropocene and toprovide a baseline for future estimates ofoceanic CO2 uptake, two international oceanresearch programs, the World Ocean Circu-lation Experiment (WOCE) and the JointGlobal Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS), jointlyconducted a comprehensive survey of inor-ganic carbon distributions in the global oceanin the 1990s (4). After completion of the U.S.field program in 1998, a 5-year effort wasbegun to compile and rigorously quality-con-trol the U.S. and international data sets, in-
cluding a few pre-WOCE data sets in regionsthat were data limited (5). The final data setconsists of 9618 hydrographic stations col-lected on 95 cruises, which represents themost accurate and comprehensive view of theglobal ocean inorganic carbon distributionavailable (6). As individual basins were com-pleted, the ocean tracer–based #C*method(7) was used to separate the anthropogenicCO2 component from the measured DIC con-centrations (8–10). Here we synthesize theindividual ocean estimates to provide anocean data-constrained global estimate of thecumulative oceanic sink for anthropogenicCO2 for the period from "1800 to 1994 (11).Distribution and inventories of an-
thropogenic CO2 in the ocean. The objec-tively gridded individual sample estimateswere vertically integrated to produce thecolumn inventory map shown in Fig. 1.Because the global survey had limited datacoverage in the marginal basins and theArctic Ocean (north of 65°N), these areaswere excluded from the mapped regions.The cumulative oceanic anthropogenic CO2
sink in 1994, for the ocean region shown inFig. 1, is 106 ! 17 Pg C. Accounting forthe excluded regions, we estimate a globalanthropogenic CO2 sink of 118 ! 19 Pg C.The uncertainty in the total inventory isbased on uncertainties in the anthropogenicCO2 estimates and mapping errors (11).
Figure 1 shows that this anthropogenicCO2 is not evenly distributed throughout theoceans. The highest vertically integrated con-centrations are found in the North Atlantic.As a result, this ocean basin stores 23% of theglobal oceanic anthropogenic CO2, despitecovering only 15% of the global ocean area(table S1). By contrast, the Southern Oceansouth of 50°S has very low vertically inte-grated anthropogenic CO2 concentrations,containing only 9% of the global inventory.More than 40% of the global inventory isfound in the region between 50°S and 14°S

because of the substantially higher verticallyintegrated concentrations and the large oceanarea in these latitude bands (Fig. 1, table S1).About 60% of the total oceanic anthropogen-ic CO2 inventory is stored in the SouthernHemisphere oceans, roughly in proportion tothe larger ocean area of this hemisphere.
Figure 2 shows the anthropogenic CO2
distributions along representative meridi-onal sections in the Atlantic, Pacific, andIndian oceans for the mid-19 9 0s. Becauseanthropogenic CO2 invades the ocean bygas exchange across the air-sea interface,the highest concentrations of anthropogenicCO2 are found in near-surface waters.Away from deep water formation regions,the time scales for mixing of near-surfacewaters downward into the deep ocean canbe centuries, and as of the mid-19 9 0s, the
anthropogenic CO2 concentration in mostof the deep ocean remained below the de-tection limit for the !C*technique.
Variations in surface concentrations are re-lated to the length of time that the waters havebeen exposed to the atmosphere and to thebuffer capacity, or Revelle factor, for seawater(12, 13). This factor describes how the partialpressure of CO2 in seawater (PCO2) changes fora given change in DIC. Its value is proportionalto the ratio between DIC and alkalinity, wherethe latter term describes the oceanic chargebalance. Low Revelle factors are generallyfound in the warm tropical and subtropical wa-ters, and high Revelle factors are found in thecold high latitude waters (Fig. 3). The capacityfor ocean waters to take up anthropogenic CO2
from the atmosphere is inversely proportionalto the value of the Revelle factor; hence, the
lower the Revelle factor, the higher the oceanicequilibrium concentration of anthropogenicCO2 for a given atmospheric CO2 perturbation.The highest anthropogenic CO2 concentrations(" 60 #mol kg$ 1) are found in the subtropicalAtlantic surface waters because of the low Rev-elle factors in that region. By contrast, the near-surface waters of the North Pacific have a high-er Revelle factor at comparable latitudes andconsequently lower anthropogenic CO2 con-centrations primarily because North Pacific al-kalinity values are as much as 100 #mol kg$ 1
lower than those in the North Atlantic (Fig. 3).About 30% of the anthropogenic CO2 is
found at depths shallower than 200 m andnearly 50% at depths above 400 m. Theglobal average depth of the 5 #mol kg$ 1
contour is " 1000 m. The majority of theanthropogenic CO2 in the ocean is, therefore,confined to the thermocline, i.e., the region ofthe upper ocean where temperature changesrapidly with depth. Variations in the penetra-tion depth of anthropogenic CO2 are deter-mined by how rapidly the anthropogenic CO2
that has accumulated in the near-surface wa-ters is transported into the ocean interior. Thistransport occurs primarily along surfaces ofconstant density called isopycnal surfaces.
The deepest penetrations are associatedwith convergence zones at temperate lati-tudes where water that has recently been incontact with the atmosphere can be transport-ed into the ocean interior. The isopycnal sur-faces in these regions tend to be thick andinclined, providing a pathway for the move-ment of anthropogenic CO2-laden waters intothe ocean interior. Low vertical penetration isgenerally observed in regions of upwelling,such as the Equatorial Pacific, where inter-mediate-depth waters, low in anthropogenicCO2, are transported toward the surface. Theisopycnal layers in the tropical thermoclinetend to be shallow and thin, minimizing themovement of anthropogenic CO2-laden wa-ters into the ocean interior.
Figure 4A shows the distribution of an-thropogenic CO2 on a relatively shallowisopycnal surface (see depths in Fig. 2) witha potential density (%&) of 26.0. About 20%of the anthropogenic CO2 is stored in waterswith potential densities equal to or less thanthat of this surface. The highest concentra-tions are generally found closest to where thisdensity intersects the surface, an area referredto as the outcrop. Concentrations decreaseaway from these outcrops in the Indian andPacific oceans, primarily reflecting the aging ofthese waters, i.e., these waters were exposed tolower atmospheric CO2 concentrations whenthey were last in contact with the atmosphere.The Atlantic waters do not show this trendbecause the 26.0 %& surface is much shallowerand therefore relatively well connected to theventilated surface waters throughout most ofthe Atlantic (Figs. 2A and 4A).
