FORBES: Forests and Climate Change: a Combustible Combination
Sarah Jackson from the Met Office confirmed that it did not discern any pattern that suggested Man-made climate change was at play in UK rainfall - although if temperatures rise as projected in future, that would lead to warmer air being able to carry more moisture to fall as rain.
Put otherwise, climate sensitivity measures how fast temperatures are likely to rise as a result of atmospheric GHG.
