IPCC clarifies that specific climate scenario papers are authored by the research community, not the IPCC itself.
The IPCC's role is to assess existing peer-reviewed literature, not to conduct primary research or own specific models.
The organization is currently in its seventh assessment cycle (AR7) and will consider recent literature in future reports.
