Atmospheric CO2 concentrations and surface temperature reconstructions in the study period 1850-2017 are used to estimate observed equilibrium climate sensitivity. Comparison of climate sensitivities in the first and second halves of the study period and a study of climate sensitivities in a...

We present a thorough empirical study (based on over 8 years of daily data) of candidate models for forecasting losses in relation to positions held against individual risk factors as well as losses in relation to a portfolio of risk factors. As part of the study, we also define various measures...
