Résumé
Climate Change 2001: The Scientific Basis is the most
comprehensive and up-to-date scientific assessment of past,
present and future climate change. The report: •
Analyses an enormous body of observations of all parts of
the climate system. • Catalogues increasing
concentrations of atmospheric greenhouse gases. •
Assesses our understanding of the processes and feedbacks
which govern the climate system. • Projects scenarios
of future climate change using a wide range of models of
future emissions of greenhouse gases and aerosols. •
Makes a detailed study of whether a human influence on
climate can be identified. • Suggests gaps in
information and understanding that remain in our knowledge
of climate change and how these might be addressed. This
latest IPCC assessment will again form the standard
scientific reference for all concerned with climate change
and its consequences, including students and researchers in
all aspects of environmental and atmospheric science, and
policymakers in governments and industry worldwide.
