literature review is not research in itself, its more like journalism/blogging. To qualify for research it gotta include materials, methods, conduct experiments, build quantitative models - to have some research rigor applied to the climate domain. Only after that,a researcher can claim some novel contribution based on his own model. Otherwise it is not climate research (a STEM discipline), but more like blogging/journalism - a a study of what other people write - human sciences type research which lacks rigor and suffers from inability to reproduce research
