Radiative and Precipitation Processes Make it Easier to Match the Temperature Record and Harder to Constrain Future Warming
2025
Overview
By examining the historical temperature record during the industrial era, we can infer the climate's sensitivity to radiative perturbations, given knowledge of historical forcings. Energy conservation enforces a negative correlation between the climate feedback and historical forcing for a given change in global‐mean temperature. Here, we examine the negative correlation between the radiative forcing due to aerosol‐cloud interactions and the shortwave cloud feedback to warming that appears in a perturbed parameter ensemble (PPE). The PPE is not tuned to match the historical record, yet a negative correlation emerges over the extratropics due to the combined effects of liquid cloud precipitation efficiency and radiative saturation in the shortwave. Using an energy balance model, we argue that these processes combine to push Earth System Models to yield a temperature record in keeping with observations, but also limit our ability to constrain future warming posterior with the temperature record.
