The trajectory is clear.<\/p>\n<p>But there\u2019s more to the story. As temperatures rise, we\u2019re also learning more about how these rising temperatures affect our weather \u2013 and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edf.org\/climate\/climate-change-and-extreme-weather\">extreme weather events<\/a>, in particular.<\/p>\n<p>With the help of new and evolving climate research, we\u2019re detecting a stronger link between warming and changing weather patterns.<\/p>\n<h4>Rapid response: Climate analysis in real time<\/h4>\n<p>Until recently, all studies on climate attribution were typically published a year or more after a big storm or heat wave, long after news headlines and public attention had waned.<\/p>\n<p>But the science of climate attribution \u2013 an emerging and rapidly advancing branch of climate science that separates out the greenhouse gas cause from naturally occurring causes to quantify <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edf.org\/climate\/what-sparked-global-warming-people-did\">the human impact <\/a>\u2013 is becoming nimble.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/wwa.climatecentral.org\/\">World Weather Attribution<\/a> project, an international effort \u201cto sharpen and accelerate the scientific community\u2019s ability to analyze and communicate the possible influence of climate change on extreme-weather events,\u201d\u00a0now conducts initial analyses in near real time.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EDFLetterText\">In 2016, this project covered the March coral bleaching in the Pacific Ocean, the May European rain storms, the August Louisiana floods, the extreme Arctic warming during November and December, and the December cold air outbreak over the United States \u2013 all significant weather events.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EDFLetterText\">In four of the five events, scientists found links to human-caused climate change, with the December cold air outbreak being the only event without a discernible human fingerprint.<\/p>\n<p>The next step for climate science:\u00a0to project\u00a0how future weather events will change under different scenarios spelled out by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edf.org\/blog\/2015\/12\/15\/report-back-paris-what-new-climate-deal-means-and-where-we-go-here\">2015 Paris climate agreement<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h4>Extreme weather in a 1.5\u00b0 or 2\u00b0 degree world<\/h4>\n<p>Scientists are engaged in a new international <a href=\"http:\/\/www.happimip.org\/\">research effort<\/a> trying to predict differences in weather extremes under both a 1.5 degrees and 2 degrees Celsius warmer world, the targets discussed during the Paris climate talks.<\/p>\n<p>Although climate change impacts on weather extremes are already underway, as 2016 has shown, it is critical to understand potential socioeconomic consequences under these two policy scenarios.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve already experienced more than 1 degree Celsius of global warming and its impacts.
