The Challenge to Detect and Attribute Effects of Climate Change on Human and Natural Systems
This paper describes the current conceptual framework of detection and attribution and outlines a number of conceptual challenges.Read More →
Building EORA: A Global Multi-Region Input–Output Database at High Country and Sector Resolution
This paper describes results from a project to create an multi-region input-output (MIRO) table that represents all countries at a detailed sectoral level. Read More →
Detection and Attribution of Anthropogenic Climate Change Impacts
This paper argues that the expansion of methods of detection is key to discerning the climate sensitivities of sectors and systems in regions where the impacts of climate change currently remain elusive. Read More →

IPCC AR5 WGI Climate Change 2013: The Physical Science Basis
This report considers new evidence of climate change based on many independent scientific analyses from observations of the climate system, paleoclimate archives, theoretical studies of climate processes and simulations using climate models. Read More →
Patterns of change: whose fingerprint is seen in global warming?
This letter communicates the physical science basis of climate change attribution research, and discusses the statistical methods applied to explore the extent to which different possible causes can be used to explain the recent climate records.Read More →
A Synthesis of Carbon in International Trade
This paper synthesizes carbon transfer through emissions embodied in goods and services that are produced in one country but consumed in others, as well as carbon physically present in fossil fuels and other sources. Read More →
A Decade of Weather Extremes
This article reviews the evidence and argue that for some types of extreme--notably heatwaves, but also precipitation extremes--there is now strong evidence linking specific events or an increase in their numbers to the human influence on climate.Read More →
Equity in Climate Change: An Analytical Review
This paper presents an analytical framework to encompass contributions to the literature on equity in climate change, and highlights the consequences—in terms of future emissions allocations—of different approaches to equity. Read More →
Patterns of Change: Whose Fingerprint Is Seen in Global Warming?
This article explores the physical arguments used in climate change attribution, and the statistical methods applied to explore the extent of attribution in recent climate records. Read More →
