analysing historical time series of direct temperature measurements. Information regarding the pre-anthropogenic state of the system can be obtained either by reconstructing the climatic and environmental conditions
motivation is to identify the nature of the associated aerosol sources (biogenic, geochemical, or anthropogenic) as well as source regions, and to elucidate to what extend the atmospheric signal is authentically
and biological pumps of carbon will shift in future, hence whether changes in climate due to anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions will be amplified or dampened. As physical oceanographers we are inv [...] that the Weddell Sea bottom water became warmer during the last decades, and that its content of anthropogenic CO2 increased continuously; by detailed investigations it could be shown that the densest part
we can alter parameters like light, temperature and nutrients – all of which are affected by anthropogenic climate change in the real world – in a controlled way, which allows us to investigate their impact
