Description2016 Confidence in attributing extreme events to global warming.svg
English: Chart showing relation of the ability to attribute specific extreme events to global warming, as a function of general understanding of the influence of global warming on different types of extreme events
Source explains: "Scientists' confidence in studies to detect the influence of global warming on a specific extreme event (vertical axis) depends on the level of scientific knowledge about how global warming will affect the atmospheric processes that produce those types of events. Graphic adapted from Figure 4.7 in NAS 2016."
