Under this premise, how can scientists say with certainty that current changes are due to human activities (or anthropogenic)&nbsp;?<\/p>\n\n<p>To answer this question, we have received previous help from Pascale Braconnot, CEA researcher at the Climate and Environment Sciences Laboratory (LSCE).<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-que-sait-on-du-climat-du-pass\"><strong>What do we know about past climates&nbsp;?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>For the last 600 million years, the average global temperature was about 10 degrees higher in comparison to today\u2019s climate. During that period, there have been four relatively cool periods, forming smaller and lager glaciers in the polar and temperate zones.<\/p>\n\n<p>During the last two million years, the climate was, on average, colder than during the previous period, and the Earth experienced alternating glacial and interglacial periods. These cycles were initially less pronounced, but frequent, happening every 40,000 years or so. In the last million years, ice ages have become more intense and longer, lasting up to 100,000 years. In the last million years, ice ages grew more intense and longer, lasting up to 100,000 years. The last ice age peaked about 20,000 years ago and ended about 12,000 years ago, at the beginning of the Holocene, the current geological period, during which humans became sedentary and current civilizations emerged.<\/p>\n\n<p>On a global scale, the Holocene has proven to be climatically quite stable but has not been devoid of fluctuations, as shown by the period during which the aridification of the Sahara occurred. At the onset of our millennium (between the 11<sup>th<\/sup> and 13<sup>th<\/sup> century), overall temperatures were quite high (the medieval optimum) and then came a period of general cooling that occurred from the early 14<sup>th<\/sup> century through the mid-19<sup>th<\/sup> century: the little Ice age.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Since the 19<sup>th<\/sup> century, there has been a global warming.<\/strong> During the 20<sup>th<\/sup> century, the average temperature in France increased by about 0.1\u00b0C per decade, and there is a clear trend towards an acceleration. According to the IPPC&#8217;s fifth report, every decade since the eighties has been significantly warmer than any decade since 1850. <strong>The period between 1983 and 2012 was probably the warmest in 1400 years.<\/strong> Based of reconstruction models, <strong>we know that the current climate change is happening at a much faster rate than it has in the past 10,000 years. It\u2019s also more persistent than the during past deglaciations.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"563\" height=\"260\" src=\"https:\/\/bonpote.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/image-32.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8305\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bonpote.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/image-32.png 563w, https:\/\/bonpote.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/image-32-300x139.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 563px) 100vw, 563px\" \/><figcaption>Source&nbsp;: AR5, chap 5 WG 1 figure 5.7 <br\/>https:\/\/www.ipcc.ch\/site\/assets\/uploads\/2018\/02\/WG1AR5_all_final.pdf<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-comment-reconstitue-t-on-le-climat-du-pass\"><strong>How do we reconstruct past climates&nbsp;?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>Large meteorological measurement networks have made it possible to monitor the evolution of the climate for the last 150 years. Before, rocks, sediments, ice caps, and various fossils are our main sources of information on past climates, named paleoclimate. These natural archives are collected from the soil, lakes, peat bogs, oceans, or ice. Step by step, scientists have developed ever more precise methods to date these precious clues. Some archives, like tree or coral growth rings, are exact to the year and season&nbsp;!<\/p>\n\n<p>Using paleoclimatic records, we can also learn about volcanic activity, land-use change (deforestation or the spread of agriculture) and the atmospheric composition, estimated from analyzing air or aerosol bubbles trapped in polar ice cores.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-comment-explique-t-on-les-diff-rents-changements-climatiques\"><strong>How do we explain these past climate changes&nbsp;?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>The driving force of climate is solar radiation on the top of Earth\u2019s atmosphere. The climate system and associated weather, which varies from region to region, is associated with complex interactions between the oceans, the land, the sun, the ice and the atmosphere. On a global scale, climate change linked to external factors (variation in solar activity, volcanic activity, anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions), leads to a <strong>disturbance of the balance<\/strong> between solar radiation absorbed by the Earth and the thermal energy that the Earth reflects back into space. This change in the Earth\u2019s energy balance is called <strong>radiative forcing<\/strong>. <strong>The resulting heating effect is generated by an energy surplus<\/strong> added to the climate system (positive forcing); for example an increase in solar radiation, a drop in the Earth\u2019s reflectivity, or a greenhouse effect change, caused by CO<sub>2<\/sub> emissions.<\/p>\n\n<p>In the first case, we look at <strong>orbital<\/strong> (or astronomical) forcing or increased <strong>solar energy\/radiation<\/strong>: Cyclical variations influence the Earth\u2019s orbit (eccentricity), its wobble (precession) and axial tilt (obliquity). <strong>These parameters affect insolation, in other words, the amount of energy that reaches the top of Earth\u2019s atmosphere. Orbital forcing is known a critical factor driving glacial and interglacial changes.<\/strong>. These cycles, known as the <strong>Milankovitch cycles<\/strong>, are periodic changes that occur at a frequency of several ten thousand years<\/p>\n\n<p>Over periods of several million years, <strong>plate tectonics<\/strong>, which play a prevailing role in modifying oceanic and atmospheric dynamics, and have contributed to very important climate changes.<\/p>\n\n<p>Finally, an increased <strong>greenhouse effect<\/strong>, linked to a higher concentration of greenhouse gases (including mainly CO<sub>2<\/sub>) in the atmosphere, can also explain hot periods. By trapping infrared radiation in the atmosphere, the greenhouse effect contributes to heating the climate. Carbon dioxide concentration can be modified by natural or anthropogenic processes affecting the carbon cycle and the way carbon is stored in the ocean.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-des-facteurs-naturels-peuvent-ils-expliquer-les-changements-climatiques-actuels\"><strong>Can natural drivers explain the current climate change&nbsp;?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p><strong>During the Holocene<\/strong>, the current geological period, <strong>the impact of all natural forcings on climate has been relatively weak on a global scale compared to past large-scale climate fluctuations.<\/strong> For instance, in the Arctic, insolation peaked around 10,000 years ago. The obliquity and the precession of the equinoxes lead to a stronger seasonality (temperature differences between summer and winter) and therefore warmer summers, although average annual temperatures were comparable to those observed today. The continued decline in insolation in the Northern Hemisphere has led to a long-term cooling that peaked recently during the Little Ice Age. The difference in summer insolation between the beginning and end of the Holocene is estimated to be 40 W\/m<sup>2<\/sup> at 45\u00b0N.<\/p>\n\n<p>Similarly, while <strong>solar activity<\/strong> could in the past partially explain the observed temperature variations, <strong>this is no longer the case<\/strong> since the middle of the 20<sup>th<\/sup> century, as shown by the fifth IPCC report.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Summing up, even though the Earth has seen warmer climates in the past, they were caused by natural forcings.<\/strong> Nowadays, changes attributed to natural forcings are small. In no way can they explain the evolution of the actual climate system, nor the pace of change. On the other hand, by changing the atmospheric composition and the Earth\u2019s reflectivity, CO<sub>2<\/sub>, aerosols (fine airborne particles) and human land-use <strong>affect the Earth&#8217;s energy budget in a major way, which explains the observed evolution.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-est-ce-que-des-ruptions-volcaniques-pourraient-expliquer-le-r-chauffement-actuel\"><strong>Could volcanic eruptions explain the current warming?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>Eruptions do release CO<sub>2<\/sub> and contribute to the emission of greenhouse gases. However, their impact varies widely: for example, in 2010 the Icelandic volcano Eyjafj\u00f6ll\u2019s daily CO<sub>2<\/sub> emissions at the peak of its activity were 100 times less than China\u2019s daily emissions the same year. <\/p>\n\n<p>Furthermore, volcanic activity is primarily a negative forcing: during a strong eruption, volcanic ashes and sulfuric acid droplets present in the atmosphere reflect part of the sunrays back to space instead of letting them through. Some historical volcanic eruptions led to a global cooling, sometimes lasting several years.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-peut-on-affirmer-que-l-homme-est-responsable-du-changement-climatique\"><strong>Are humans responsible for climate change&nbsp;?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>To understand the link between human activities and climate change (also called anthropogenic forcing), we have to ask, whether <strong>the speed, intensity and global nature<\/strong> of the phenomenon could be possible, when taking only the natural evolution of the environmental conditions into account. <strong>Climate models give us part of the answer by reconstructing the observed signals and then estimating to what extent the various disturbances &#8211; natural or anthropogenic &#8211; explain the observed signal.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>In addition, detection and attribution studies help to define whether observed climate changes are the result of natural forcings or human-induced perturbations. They also contribute to estimate the relative contributions of forcings. <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bonpote.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/image-30.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8288\" width=\"652\" height=\"440\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bonpote.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/image-30.png 869w, https:\/\/bonpote.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/image-30-300x202.png 300w, https:\/\/bonpote.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/image-30-768x518.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 652px) 100vw, 652px\" \/><figcaption><br\/><em>Reconstructions of the global average of all radiative forcings since the year 1000 expressed in W\/m^2 for [a] volcanic activity; [b] solar activity; [c] all other forcings including greenhouse gases and tropospheric sulfate aerosols.
