Climate modelling: Uncertainty in climate-sensitivity estimates (Reply)
Gabriele C. Hegerl1, Thomas J. Crowley2, William T. Hyde2 & David J. Frame3
Abstract
Despite Schneider's claim1, the method we use to estimate equilibrium climate sensitivity from multiple proxy-based reconstructions of the temperature in the Northern Hemisphere2 does account for uncertainty in reconstructions, including that associated with non-temperature and sampling error in the reconstruction. We arrive at a tighter constraint on climate sensitivity not by neglecting uncertainties, but by combining our wide-tailed proxy-based estimate with an independent estimate of climate sensitivity based on twentieth-century warming.
