Abstract

Quantitative estimates of the contributions of anthropogenic impacts (characterized by changes in the radiative forcing of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere) and variations in solar activity to the trends of global surface temperature (GST) on secular temporal horizons are obtained from simulations with climate models of the CMIP6 ensemble in comparison with corresponding estimates based on the analysis of long-term observational data since the 19th century using autoregressive models. The results for simulations with climate models characterized by low, medium, and high temperature sensitivity to changes in CO2 content in the atmosphere are compared. It is found, in particular, that empirical estimates revealing the determinative contribution of the content of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere to the GST trends on half-century and century-long time intervals are most consistent with the estimates from simulations with the INM-CM4-8 climate model of the Marchuk Institute of Numerical Mathematics, Russian Academy of Sciences (INM RAS), with the lowest sensitivity of GST to doubling the CO2 content in the atmosphere.
