Climate scientists and climate modelers recently admitted the newest, sixth generation of climate models (CMIP6), particularly its high emissions scenario, Representative Concentration Pathway 8.5 (RCP8.5) produce “implausibly hot forecasts of future warming.”
Two peer-reviewed papers from independent teams confirm that climate models overstate atmospheric warming and illustrate that the problem has gotten worse over time, not better.
The papers are Mitchell et al. (2020) “The vertical profile of recent tropical temperature trends: Persistent model biases in the context of internal variability” in Environmental Research Letters, and McKitrick and Christy (2020) “Pervasive warming bias in CMIP6 tropospheric layers” in Earth and Space Science.
