Radiative Forcing and Climate Sensitivity

Lacis, A. A., and M. I. Mishchenko, Climate Forcing, Climate Sensitivity, and Climate Response A Radiative Modeling Perspective on Atmospheric Aerosols, in Aerosol Forcing of Climate (R. J. Charlson and J. Heintzenberg, Eds.), Wiley, New York, 1995. [Pg.836]

The influence of aerosols on radiative forcing depends on the balance between three essential quantities single-scattering albedo, upscatter fraction, and optical depth—all are sensitive functions of the aerosol chemical composition and size distribution in the 0.1 to 1.0 pm range [1,14]. Aerosol climate forcing, AF, depends on geophysical and aerosol parameters and can be expressed as... [Pg.434]
