Abstract
Human input to autumn 2000 floods Human emissions of greenhouse gases — and related warming — are recognized as an influence on global and regional warming and on broad-scale precipitation changes. But to date, it has proved difficult to assess the human impact on specific weather events. Now Pardeep Pall and colleagues use publicly contributed climate simulations to show that increased greenhouse-gas emissions substantially increased the risk of flood occurrence during the extensive flooding that occurred in England and Wales in autumn 2000.
