If CO2 in the Anthropocene atmosphere contributes to re-vegetating currently arid areas as it did post-LGM, we should expect an even greater
warming feedback from CO2 than is assumed from water vapor and albedo feedbacks,
due to decreased global
dust - induced albedo and increased water vapor from transpiration over increased vegetated area.

due to land use and black carbon /

due to housing, roads, and other resultant factors), smoke and
dust over long distances or deforestation of huge forest areas.
The estimated GST drop
due to fine
dust from the actual atmospheric nuclear explosions based on the published simulation results by other researchers (a single column model and Atmosphere - Ocean General Circulation Model) has served to explain the stagnation in global
warming.

warming trend of 0.18 °C / decade
