Claim: The human fingerprint in global warming is evident in multiple lines of empirical evidence - in satellite measurements of outgoing infrared radiation, in surface measurements of downward infrared radiation, in the cooling stratosphere and other metrics.

Relevance (1 = gold evidence, 0 = mined hard negative): 1
Passage: It is a major aspect of climate change and has been demonstrated by direct temperature measurements and by measurements of various effects of the warming.

Relevance (1 = gold evidence, 0 = mined hard negative): 1
Passage: The spatial and temporal fingerprint of warming can be traced to increasing greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere, which are a direct result of burning fossil fuels, broad-scale deforestation and other human activity.

Relevance (1 = gold evidence, 0 = mined hard negative): 0
Passage: Scientists then applied fingerprint methods to a whole range of climate variables, identifying human-caused climate signals in the heat content of the oceans, the height of the tropopause (the boundary between the troposphere and stratosphere, which has shifted upward by hundreds of feet in recent decades), the geographical patterns of precipitation, drought, surface pressure, and the runoff from major river basins.

Relevance (1 = gold evidence, 0 = mined hard negative): 0
Passage: For instance, he has helped in the investigations of the decadal trends in tropopause height, which could be a useful tool for determining the human "fingerprint" on climate.

Relevance (1 = gold evidence, 0 = mined hard negative): 0
Passage: Multiple lines of evidence support attribution of recent climate change to human activities:

Relevance (1 = gold evidence, 0 = mined hard negative): 0
Passage: Another fingerprint of human effects on climate has been identified by looking at a slice through the layers of the atmosphere, and studying the pattern of temperature changes from the surface up through the stratosphere (see the section on solar activity).

Relevance (1 = gold evidence, 0 = mined hard negative): 0
Passage: Fingerprint studies exploit these unique signatures, and allow detailed comparisons of modelled and observed climate change patterns.

Relevance (1 = gold evidence, 0 = mined hard negative): 0
Passage: There has been multiple indications of how human activities affect global warming and continue to do so.

Relevance (1 = gold evidence, 0 = mined hard negative): 0
Passage: Studies published after the appearance of the IPCC Fourth Assessment Report in 2007 have also found human fingerprints in the increased levels of atmospheric moisture (both close to the surface and over the full extent of the atmosphere), in the decline of Arctic sea ice extent, and in the patterns of changes in Arctic and Antarctic surface temperatures.

Relevance (1 = gold evidence, 0 = mined hard negative): 0
Passage: Nevertheless, the bottom-line conclusion from climate fingerprinting is that most of the observed changes studied to date are consistent with each other, and are also consistent with our scientific understanding of how the climate system would be expected to respond to the increase in heat-trapping gases resulting from human activities.
