Atmospheric Chemistry & Climate of the Anthropocene
Our Earth’s climate and atmospheric composition has been changing since preindustrial times and will change in the future due to emissions of a variety of short-lived and long-lived compounds that affect concentrations of greenhouse gas and other climate forcers. The group investigates key processes and interactions in the atmosphere and the drivers of present-day and future changes in climate and composition.

HadCM3 model data used in the article "Seasonal long-term trends during the last Millennium strongly influenced by orbital forcing" by Lucie Luecke, Andrew Schurer, Rob Wilson and Gabriele Hegerl
HadCM3 model simulation including orbital forcing only from 12/850 to 11/1850. The dataset is divided into atmosphere monthly mean and ocean monthly mean files. All files are in netcdf format. Abstract: Orbital forcing ... -
Supporting material for "Orbital forcing strongly influences seasonal temperature trends during the last millennium"
Abstract: Insolation changes caused by the axial precession induce millennial trends in last millennium temperature, varying with season and latitude. A characteristic seasonal trend pattern can be detected in both insolation ... -

HadCM3 Model data used in the article "Disentangling the causes of the 1816 European year without a summer" by Schurer, Andrew; Hegerl, Gabriele; Luterbacher, Juerg; Broennimann, Stefan; Cowan, Tim; Tett, Simon; Zanchettin, Davide; Timmreck, Claudia
Abstract: The European summer of 1816 has often been referred to as a “year without a summer” due to anomalously cold conditions and unusual wetness, which led to widespread famines and agricultural failures. The cause ... -
Supporting material for "Importance of the Pre-Industrial Baseline in Determining the Likelihood of Exceeding the Paris Limits"
During the Paris Conference in 2015, nations of the world strengthened the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change by agreeing to holding ‘the increase in the global average temperature to well below ...
