Key indicators constitute a finite set of distinct variables that may collectively point to important overall changes in the climate system of broad societal relevance across the atmospheric, oceanic, cryospheric and biospheric domains, with land as an implicit cross-cutting theme. Taken together, these indicators would be expected to both have changed and continue to change in the future in a coherent and consistent manner. See Cross-Chapter Box 2.2, Table 1 in the AR6 WGI report. (English)
