In any case, yes, radiative effects should be accounted for with a first -
principles radiative model, that is to say, insolation + absorption (I don't think this is hard to do).
Not exact matches
But
models based on physical
principles also reproduce the response to seasonal and spatial changes in
radiative forcing fairly well, which is one of the many lines of evidence that supports their use in their prediction of the response to anthropogenic forcing.
Due to the important role of ozone in driving temperature changes in the stratosphere as well as
radiative forcing of surface climate, several different groups have provided databases characterizing the time - varying concentrations of this key gas that can be used to force global climate change simulations (particularly for those
models that do not calculate ozone from photochemical
principles).
