... precipitation data at 26 weather stations throughout Ohio since 1895 (Figure 2). The number of USHCN weather stations is limited as USHCN stations are required to have a consistent, non-urban location since 1895; this eliminates urban heat island effects (urbanized areas that are hotter than surroun ...

... The likelihood of occurrence of these low probability, high impact, events (“tipping points”) is greatly diminished under the new ECS findings. The average 95th percentile value of the new literature survey is only 3.5°C indicating a very low probability of a warming reaching 3-5°C by 2100 as indica ...
