Changing wind
forces at different altitudes determines weather systems, PNNL researchers found
Not exact matches
Important manifestations of such external
forcing from space to the atmosphere are the variations in
different solar parameters such as the solar irradiance (including solar UV) and solar particle fluxes, which can induce changes in the atmosphere both
at local and global scales, and can influence over a large range of
altitudes.
Tau doesn't tell him what he wants to know; he has written
at least one post on papers which show that adding the same quantity of water vapor to the atmosphere
at different altitudes creates
different amounts of radiative
forcing: https://scienceofdoom.com/2010/09/18/clouds-and-water-vapor-part-three/ So tau can be the same and the temperature profile of the atmosphere can be the same, but warming will be
different.
