#14 Detection and attribution of climate change: the science of the 6th IPCC report with Nathan Gillett

Although we’re taking a break while we get ready for Season 2 of the podcast, we wanted to shine a light on the science of the recently published 6th Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, as well as the COP26 meeting that’s taking place this week in Glasgow scotland for the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change. So, we are releasing a couple of special episodes dedicated to the climate change conversation.

In this episode, we are chatting with one of the leading experts in the field of detection and attribution, Nathan Gillett. Nathan is a senior research scientist with The Canadian Centre for Climate Modelling and Analysis in Victoria, B.C., where he uses observational data sets, climate model output and statistical techniques to examine and quantify the human contribution to the climate changes we observe. He is a convening lead author on Chapter 3 of the most recent IPCC report: Human Influence on the Climate System and has also been a chapter lead author on the previous Fifth Assessment Report and on the WMO Scientific Assessment of Ozone Depletion.

In this interview, Nathan shares his insights on the most recent IPCC report and his optimistic perspective on the future.
