UN climate change reports to increase accuracy, timeliness

Science: The international team of climate change scientists that produced an influential series of reports last year--and won the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize--will be doing things a little differently in the future. Government delegates to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), meeting last week in Budapest, Hungary, approved a plan for the 20-year, 100-nation enterprise that would generate more precise and relevant information on climate change--without taking any longer than the current 6-year gap between reports. To do so, the delegates endorsed procedural changes that scientists had proposed to streamline the process.

Where can I find one scientific peer reviewed article to support global warming other than historical warming and cooling patterns?

I suggest you try The Discovery of Rapid Climate Change by Spencer Weart.
