Sentences with phrase «atmospheric aerosol concentrations»

With that background, we can look at the impact of changing atmospheric aerosol concentrations.

Models suggest atmospheric aerosol concentrations will increase as the temperatures keep climbing — and that's bad news for your lungs.

It is my understanding that the uncertainties regarding climate sensitivity to a nominal 2XCO2 forcing is primarily a function of the uncertainties in (1) future atmospheric aerosol concentrations; both sulfate - type (cooling) and black carbon - type (warming), (2) feedbacks associated with aerosol effects on the properties of clouds (e.g. will cloud droplets become more reflective?)

Thus, over any long enough period of time, you can describe an average atmospheric aerosol concentration — as aerosols naturally leave the atmosphere, new ones are injected into it by ongoing eruptions.

As a result, not only did atmospheric aerosol concentrations not quadruple, they declined starting in the late 1970s:

Yes, their global cooling projection was based on a quadrupling of atmospheric aerosol concentration.
