What is the scientific sign of high climate sensitivity?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Large temperature response to small forcing
Climate sensitivity describes how strongly the climate system responds to a specified radiative forcing, such as a change in greenhouse-gas concentration. High sensitivity means that a relatively small forcing produces a relatively large equilibrium or transient temperature response. It does not mean that all rain stops or that Earth changes size; it refers specifically to the strength of climate response.
