Controversy exists over the role of the recent rise in sea surface temperatures (SST) and the frequency of tropical cyclones or hurricanes. Here, 135 yr of observational records are used to …

We analyze the global sea-level budget since 1850. Good estimates of sea-level contributions from glaciers and small ice caps, the Greenland ice sheet and thermosteric sea level are available over …

On realclimate.org Rahmstorf critizes our model (Grinsted et al., 2009) on the basis that it has too low sensitivity (m/ºC) when extrapolated to a 65 m rise in sea level.

In 1915 C. J. H. Speerschneider from DMI compiled alot of evidence regarding past ice conditions in Danish waters. My colleague J.P. Steffensen found it in a pile of books being thrown out and saved …

We present here surface water vapor isotopic measurements conducted from June to August~2010 at the NEEM camp, NW-Greenland (77.45° N 51.05° W, 2484 m a.s.l.). Measurements were conducted at 9 …

Efforts to extract a Greenland ice core with a complete record of the Eemian interglacial (130,000 to 115,000 years ago) have until now been unsuccessful. The response of the Greenland ice sheet to …

We examine the limitations of a semi-empirical model characterized by a sea level projection of 73 cm with RCP4.5 scenario by 2100. Calibrating the model with data to 1990 and then simulating the …

Greenhouse gases is warming the world and this will lead to more frequent heat waves all else being equal. You might naively think that this increase in extreme warm spells will be compensated by an …

Proxy data forms natural time series used to lengthen instrumental climatic records, and may contain a significant portion of autocorrelation. Increased serial correlation limits the number of …

Sea level rise over the coming centuries is perhaps the most damaging side of rising temperature (Anthoff et al, 2009). The economic costs and social consequences of coastal flooding and forced …
