Pacific climate variability biases constrained warming projections towards low estimates
Nature Climate Change, Published online: 05 June 2024; doi:10.1038/s41558-024-02018-x
A comprehensive analysis of observations and model simulations finds that future global mean warming is likely to be larger than previously thought, and that limiting global warming to well below 2°C will be more difficult than previously anticipated.

Western North Pacific tropical cyclone activity modulated by phytoplankton feedback under global warming
Nature Climate Change, Published online: 11 April 2024; doi:10.1038/s41558-024-01976-6
The degree to which changes in marine organisms due to warming can influence tropical cyclones is not well known. Here the authors show that changing chlorophyll patterns can lead to more landfalling tropical cyclones in East Asia.

Ocean warming and warning
Nature Climate Change, Published online: 05 February 2024; doi:10.1038/s41558-023-01921-z
Oceans, covering more than 70% of Earth’s surface, play a vital role in regulating the climate by absorbing heat and carbon dioxide. Now research shows oceans have warmed by more than 1.5 °C since the beginning of the industrial era, challenging previous estimates and emphasizing the urgency of global action.

Eddy activity in the Arctic Ocean projected to surge in a warming world
Nature Climate Change, Published online: 10 January 2024; doi:10.1038/s41558-023-01908-w
Ocean eddies impact circulation, heat and gas fluxes between the ocean and the atmosphere. Modelling how warming will alter their occurrence in the Arctic shows that sea ice decline and increased baroclinic instability drive an increase in eddy kinetic energy.

Microbes in a warming world
Nature Climate Change, Published online: 04 December 2023; doi:10.1038/s41558-023-01896-x
Microorganisms and their activities are as integrated in climate change science as they are in the world around us, playing key roles related to the causes, impacts and perhaps even some solutions of climate change.

Ice core records suggest that Antarctica is warming faster than the global average
Nature Climate Change, Published online: 07 September 2023; doi:10.1038/s41558-023-01795-1
Weather station records are too short and sparse to effectively detect the signature of climate change in Antarctica. Using the isotopic composition of ice cores as a temperature proxy suggests that Antarctica is warming faster than the global average temperature and expectations from climate models for the region.
