The study is highlighted on the cover of the March 2019 issue of Advances in Atmospheric Sciences. The increasing concentrations of heat-trapping gases, such as carbon dioxide, represented by a phoenix on the cover, produce an energy imbalance between incoming solar radiation and outgoing longwave radiation that leads to global heating. Most of the heat ends up deposited in the world's oceans, with the rest melting the ice and warming the atmosphere and land.
