# Metrics assesment tool
Computable dynamic climate change metrics are 'cumulative radiative forcing' (ΔF) and 'global mean temperature change' (ΔT).
They are respectively the equivalent of Absoloute Global Warming Potential (AGWP) and Abslute Global Temperature change Potential (AGTP) when pulses at different timing occur. ΔF is in W.year.m-2.FU-1 and ΔT is in °C.FU-1, where FU the functionnal unit.
Metrics are up-to-date according the 6th IPCC Assessment Report.
Greenhouse gases that can be inventoried are carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and Nitrous oxyde (N2O).
