Ascribing potential causes of recent trends in free atmosphere temperatures

We use globally gridded radiosonde temperature datasets in a simple climate change study. Two climate models, when run with historical and, particularly, anthropogenic forcings, exhibit a degree of agreement with radiosonde temperature observations for 1958–1998.
