Perhaps one of the factors in the cooling that occurred from the 1930s to the 1970s was this aerosol pollution, counteracting the expected warming from CO2 emissions, and the warming since the 1970s is a direct result of air pollution regulations that have decreased emissions of all kinds of particulates.
But researchers lack enough of this kind of data to complete a picture of aerosols across the globe.
They come up with all kinds of hypothetical feedback mechanisms involving more natural aerosol emissions in response to global warming: Dimethylsulfide from marine phytoplankton (although a very intriguing possibility, this has never been confirmed to be a significant feedback mechanism, and there is ample evidence to the contrary, which is omitted from the report), biological aerosols (idem), carbonyl sulfide (idem), nitrous oxide (idem), and iodocompounds (idem), about which they write the following: «Iodocompounds — created by marine algae — function as cloud condensation nuclei, which help create new clouds that reflect more incoming solar radiation back to space and thereby cool the planet.»
