This well written article does a great job explaining the significance of of the Mora paper published this week in Nature.  Interestingly, Mora is not a climate scientist and the paper was produced through a  class  project, a graduate school class project in computer sciences:

This new paper based on top climate models says that by about 2047, average temperatures across the globe will be higher than any highs recorded previously, with tropics hit earlier.

An interesting example of citizen science, classroom activity, and student discovery that demonstrates an innovative approach to the topic.

All the best,
