Couverture de l’ouvrage Atlas of Climate Change: Responsibility and Obligation of Human Society

This atlas and reference resource assembles the latest research findings on the responsibility and obligation of human society for historical climate change. It clearly and quantitatively estimates to what extent the developed and developing world are responsible for historical climate change with regard to anthropogenic carbon and sulfur emissions as well as global carbon trade, and so provides a potential tool to address the controversial issue of carbon emission reduction in international climate negotiations. Since the quantitative attribution of historical climate change is calculated based on CMIP5 models, the fidelity of these models in representing the observed climate change is also evaluated. In addition to evaluation, future climate change based on CMIP5 models is also shown both on global and regional scales (especially for China and its surrounding areas ) in terms of surface air temperature, precipitation, sea surface temperature, atmospheric circulations and Arctic Sea ice. The atlas also makes various comparisons among different multi-model ensemble methods in order to obtain the most reliable estimation.

Data and Methods.- Climate Change Historical Simulations and Projections.- Comparisons among Multi-model Ensemble Methods.- Responsibility for Historical Climate Change Induced from Developed and Developing World Anthropogenic Carbon Emissions.- Responsibility for Historical Climate Change Induced from Developed and Developing World Anthropogenic Sulfur Emissions.- Transferred Responsibility for Historical Climate Change Induced from Carbon Trade between Developed and Developing World.
Dong Wenjie: Professor of Beijing Normal University. His research interests include: Climate Dynamics, Climate modeling and integrated analysis. He is the PI of the project titled Super-Ensemble Projection and Attribution of Climate Change Based on CMIP5 funded by CMOST. He is also one of the lead authors of IPCC AR5 WGI and Climate Synthesis Report for Asia-Pacific Network for global change research (APN). He won the special contribution expert grant from the State Council of China in 1999. He has jointly published more than 120 papers and 3 books. He is so dedicated to climate change science and its application that his favorite slogan is ‘keep a weather eye on climate and global change’.
