报告摘要：
Detection and attribution (D&A) methods have been used to attribute observed climate changes to external forcing on the climate system for close to three decades. Over that time, their application has gathered irrefutable evidence of human influence on the climate, resulting in successively more confident and alarming of the causes of observed changes, including changes in global and regional temperature, extreme heat and cold, global and regional precipitation amount, precipitation extremes, the atmospheric thermal structure, ocean heat content, Arctic sea ice extent and surface hydrology, amongst other variables. As well as serving to understand the role of external forcing in observed changes, the relationships between observed and simulated historical changes diagnosed with D&A studies have been used in many studies to observationally constrain model projections of future change. More recently, enormous interest has developed in using emergent constraints (ECs) to observationally constrain projections of future change by applying relationships between historical and future change diagnosed from model simulations to observations. This talk will review D&A and EC methods and demonstrate that they are closely linked. It will also discuss some recent developments in D&A methodology and describe applications to extreme seasonal mean temperature and extreme daily precipitation.
