Inferring Aerosol Forcing from Surface Temperature
The Earth's surface temperature has risen by about 0.8 K over 3 the last 100 years partly due to human activities. If not for the poorly un-4 derstood radiative effects of aerosols, one would have been able to better use 5 the observed warming to constrain the all-important transient climate re-6 sponse (TCR, the pace of the warming caused by a continuous buildup of 7 greenhouse gases). Here we...
متن کاملNonlinear Climate and Hydrological Responses to Aerosol Effects
The equilibrium temperature and hydrological responses to the total aerosol effects (i.e., direct, semidirect, and indirect effects) are studied using a modified version of the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory atmosphere general circulation model (AM2.1) coupled to a mixed layer ocean model. The treatment of aerosol–liquid cloud interactions and associated indirect effects is based upon a ...
متن کاملAerosol indirect effects from shipping emissions: sensitivity studies with the global aerosol-climate model ECHAM-HAM
In this study, we employ the global aerosol-climate model ECHAM-HAM to globally assess aerosol indirect effects (AIEs) resulting from shipping emissions of aerosols and aerosol precursor gases. We implement shipping emissions of sulphur dioxide (SO2), black carbon (BC) and particulate organic matter (POM) for the year 2000 into the model and quantify the model’s sensitivity towards uncertaintie...
متن کاملThe Sensitivity of the Tropical Hydrological Cycle to ENSO
Satellite observations of temperature, water vapor, precipitation and longwave radiation are used to characterize the variation of the tropical hydrologic and energy budgets associated with the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO). As the tropical oceans warm during an El Niño event, the precipitation intensity, water vapor mass, and temperature of the tropical atmosphere are observed to increas...
متن کاملAnalysis of Hydrological Sensitivity for Flood Risk Assessment
In order for the Indian government to maximize Integrated Water Resource Management (IWRM), the Brahmaputra River has played an important role in the undertaking of the Pilot Basin Study (PBS) due to the Brahmaputra River’s annual regional flooding. The selected Kulsi River—a part of Brahmaputra sub-basin—experienced severe floods in 2007 and 2008. In this study, the Rainfall-Runoff-Inundation ...
