《联合国气候变化框架公约》缔约方于2015年12月12日通过了期待已久并经过激烈谈判的《巴黎协定》。该协议设定了一个比许多人预期的更雄心勃勃的长期温度目标，这意味着研究界尚未充分探索的更严格的减排措施。就其本质而言，这是一个多学科的挑战，填补知识空白不仅需要气候科学家，而且需要整个地球系统科学界，以及经济学家、工程师、律师、哲学家、政治家、应急规划人员和其他人站出来。为了启动跨学科的讨论，牛津大学环境变化研究所将其25周年纪念会议的重点放在应对巴黎协定对科学和社会的挑战上。这期主题期刊包含了会议上的评论文章、观点文章和一些演讲的原创研究，涵盖了支持巴黎协定的广泛问题。本文是主题期刊“巴黎协定：了解全球变暖比前工业化水平高1.5°C的物理和社会挑战”的一部分。
The much awaited and intensely negotiated Paris Agreement was adopted on 12 December 2015 by the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. The agreement set out a more ambitious long-term temperature goal than many had anticipated, implying more stringent emissions reductions that have been under-explored by the research community. By its very nature a multidisciplinary challenge, filling the knowledge gap requires not only climate scientists, but the whole Earth system science community, as well as economists, engineers, lawyers, philosophers, politicians, emergency planners and others to step up. To kick start cross-disciplinary discussions, the University of Oxford's Environmental Change Institute focused its 25th anniversary conference upon meeting the challenges of the Paris Agreement for science and society. This theme issue consists of review papers, opinion pieces and original research from some of the presentations within that meeting, covering a wide range of issues underpinning the Paris Agreement.This article is part of the theme issue ‘The Paris Agreement: understanding the physical and social challenges for a warming world of 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels'.
