1) Where do we
go from here?
2) How do we
disentangle
internal climate
variability?

3) How do we
account for
regional
patterns of
change?
Explainable machine learning can
distinguish between regional patterns
of time-evolving climate change

KEY POINTS
1. A neural network applied to large ensembles can distinguish annual mean
maps of climate variables for a range of different climate scenarios
2. Regional patterns are revealed by explainable AI are critical for
distinguishing climate scenarios even under similar global mean warming
3. Emission scenario classification for the second half of the 21st century is
sensitive to a difference in timing of mitigation by ten years
