Sentences with phrase «high aerosol loading»

Fossil fuel combustion and biomass burning cause a high aerosol loading.

«We show that the control of the droplet concentration (N), the environmental carrying - capacity (H0), and the cloud recovery parameter (τ) can be linked by a single nondimensional parameter (μ = √ N / (ατH0)-RRB-, suggesting that for deeper clouds the transition from open (oscillating) to closed (stable fixed point) cells will occur for higher droplet concentration (i.e., higher aerosol loading)...

Finally, we have not yet taken note here of Shindell»14 «Inhomogeneous forcing and transient climate sensitivity» which makes a very strong case not only for the unexpected aerosol loading from China being the culprit for the divergence, but also, unfortunately, for the case that a rather high sensitivity is a logical consequence of that explanation.

The localized cooling between about 1950 and 1970 over industrial regions such as Europe and Southeast Asia, where anthropogenic sulfate aerosol loadings were high, is consistent with the expected cooling effect of sulfate aerosols.

Li et al., 2017 (DOI: 10.1016 / j.quascirev.2017.01.009): «Additionally, increased El Nino - Southern Oscillation (ENSO) strength (possibly El Ni ~ no - like phases) during drying periods, increased volcanic eruptions and the resulting aerosol load during cooling periods, as well as high volumes of greenhouse gases such as CO2 and CH4 during the recent warming periods, may also play a role in partly affecting the climatic variability in NC, superimposing on the overall solar dominated long - term control.»

The first part of this thesis compares the seasonal cycle and interannual variability of Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) and Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) satellite retrievals over the Northern Hemisphere subtropical Atlantic Ocean, where soil dust aerosols make the largest contribution to the aerosol load, and are assumed to dominate the variability of each data set.

@lindaserena: The revised BC forcing estimate is merely based on a upward revision of the BC aerosol loading in the atmosphere which seems to have been underestimated so far (higher than previously thought).

I found one study on impact of high regional aerosol loadings in central China.
