Extended Data Figure 5: Change in simulated cloud amount between the 1980s and 2000s for different types of forcing.
From: Evidence for climate change in the satellite cloud record
Linear trend in ensemble mean total cloud amount given as a percentage amount per 25-year period. from CMIP5 simulations and locations where the majority of observational (Obs) datasets and the majority of simulations show increasing (blue) or decreasing (orange) cloud amount or albedo. a, b, Only greenhouse gas (GHG) forcing 1979–2005. c, d, Only anthropogenic aerosol (AA) forcing 1979–2005. e, f, Only ozone (OZ) forcing 1983–2009. g, h, Only natural (NAT) forcing 1983–2009. Black dots indicate trend statistical significance (P < 0.05 two-sided). All trends are relative to the 60° S–60° N mean trend.
