Nature Climate Change

"Nature Publishing Group will launch a new primary research journal, Nature Climate Change, in October 2009. Of global importance and widespread media interest, climate change is one of the key issues of the twenty-first century. Yet few journals focus solely on climate change, and there is a need to bring together scientific observation and models with an understanding of how human society affects climate change, and vice versa.
