Observational constraints on the effective climate sensitivity from the historical period

The observed warming in the atmosphere and ocean can be used to estimate the climate sensitivity linked to present-day feedbacks, which is referred to as the effective climate sensitivity ( S _hist ). However, such an estimate is affected by uncertainty in the radiative forcing, particularly aerosol...
