报告摘要:
Global temperatures during the 2015-2024 decade averaged more than 1.2°C above pre-industrial levels, yet warming patterns and the remaining ‘warming budgets’ under the Paris Agreement 1.5°C and 2°C limits remain poorly quantified in many regions due to insufficient preindustrial period observational data, particularly in many developing regions. Here, we quantify regional warming between 1850–1900 and 2016-2025 in all IPCC regions and attribute it to specific external forcing agents using a Bayesian framework that constrains multi-model simulations with observations, enabling robust warming estimates even in data-sparse regions. We find that most land areas have warmed by more than 1°C above pre-industrial levels during the past decade, with high-latitude regions exceeding 2.5°C. Approximately 91% of the regional warming expected under 1.5°C global warming has already occurred, and about 70% under 2°C. Attribution confidence is highest in low-latitude tropical regions, including much of Africa, where internal variability is low, while high-latitude regions show greater uncertainty。
