Abstract

Changes in well-mixed greenhouse gas (WMGHG) concentrations and effective radiative forcing (EFR). The intent of this figure is to show that the changes of the main drivers of climate system over the industrial period are exceptional in a long-term context. (a) Changes in carbon dioxide (CO2) from proxy records over the past 3.5 million years. (b) Changes in all three WMGHGs from ice core records over the Common Era. (c) Directly observed WMGHG changes since the mid-20th century. (d) Evolution of ERF and components since 1750. Further details on data sources and processing are available in the associated FAIR data table. {2.2, Figures 2.3, 2.4 and 2.10}
