It will show in some more detail the assessment of the Changing State of the Climate System (Chapter 2). In the second part, it will focus on the role of clouds and aerosols in climate change and present the key conclusions on this aspect. The effective forcing due to aerosols is now revised and better confined, and the cloud feedbacks are now assessed to be clearly of positive sign. The overall effective forcing well explains the observed climate change.</div><div><br></div><div>Dr. Johannes Quaas is University Professor for Theoretical Meteorology at Leipzig University (Germany). Previously he worked at three major climate modelling centres in Europe (Laboratoire de Météorologie Dynamique, Paris, France; Met Office Hadley Centre, Exeter, UK; Max Planck Institute for Meteorology, Hamburg, Germany). His expertise is in the role of clouds in climate change, in particular the impact on clouds by anthropogenic aerosols. He works with atmospheric models but also satellite observations. Johannes was Lead author in the 6th Assessment Report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.</div><div><br></div><div><img src="https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0?ui=2&amp;ik=3e36ac7284&amp;attid=0.0.2&amp;permmsgid=msg-f:1709843869911443559&amp;th=17ba95f0c7736867&amp;view=fimg&amp;sz=s0-l75-ft&amp;attbid=ANGjdJ-fQDLtdypN6XublRJ-1_67qXw_gO9ZceJ-L0-QAwHHIR3mp46OQDBSUMDRa_grKaLJWrl2AoPgYI6sJo5PbFOtUwcbFGCjuOO6rtfRciw7bxp_7ZXIZfPBA-M&amp;disp=emb&amp;realattid=ii_kt3p3a5t1" alt="image.png" style="max-width: 100%; height: auto;"></div></div>
