Enhanced Solar Energy Absorption by Internally-Mixed Black Carbon in Snow Grains (2012, background): “Several recent modeling studies have estimated the global radiative forcing caused by black carbon (BC) deposited to snow and sea-ice (Hansen and Nazarenko, 2004; Jacobson, 2004; Hansen et al., 2005; Flanner et al., 2007, 2009; Koch et al., 2009a; Rypdal et al., 2009; Skeie et al., 2011).”
Economic savings linked to future Arctic shipping trade are at odds with climate change mitigation (2016, background): “…due to global warming is leading to less sea ice (area extent) during summer months, a time when solar intensity strengthens at Northern latitudes further accelerate the rate of sea ice loss, as more solar energy is absorbed in what are termed rapid feedback by Hansen and Nazarenko (2004)).”
Black soot and the survival of Tibetan glaciers (2009, background): “These studies (14, 18, 19, 25) suggest that black soot is responsible for a substantial fraction of the regional warming of the past century, comparable to the fraction attributable to carbon dioxide.”
Distant origins of Arctic black carbon: A Goddard Institute for Space Studies ModelE experiment (2005, background): “Hansen and Nazarenko [2004] modeled this decreased albedo in Arctic snow and sea ice and found this resulted in a hemispheric radiative forcing of +0.”
Site-specific global warming potentials of biogenic CO2 for bioenergy: contributions from carbon fluxes and albedo dynamics (2012, background): “This enables a consistent comparison of the various forcing agents in terms of their ‘effective radiative forcing’ [60, 73].”
Aerosol light absorption and its measurement: A review (2009, background): “Here they may contribute to climate forcing [14–16] by significantly lowering snow and ice albedo [17–19] and changing snow cover duration and spring runoff timing [20–22].”
Effects of Mixing State on Black Carbon Measurements by Laser-Induced Incandescence (2007, background): “It can also contribute to climate forcing by changing snow and ice albedos (Hansen and Nazarenko 2004).”
An Overview of Small Unmanned Aerial Vehicles for Air Quality Measurements: Present Applications and Future Prospectives (2016, background): “However, atmospheric pollution also reduces agriculture yields, visibility, sunlight at ground level and snowfall, and increases atmospheric heating as well [5,6].”
Transport impacts on atmosphere and climate: Aviation (2009, neutral): “This is sometimes described as the ‘efficacy’ (Hansen and Nazarenko, 2004; Hansen et al., 2005) and is defined as:”
Amplification of Light Absorption of Black Carbon by Organic Coating (2010, background): “BC aerosol also accelerates the melting of polar ice and changes snow albedo when deposited on ice and snow (Hansen and Nazarenko 2004).”
Efficacy of climate forcings (2005, background): “25 W/m(2) over the Arctic Ocean) is effective because of positive feedbacks [Hansen and Nazarenko, 2004; Clarke and Noone, 1985].”
Inferring black carbon content and specific absorption from Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) aerosol retrievals (2005, background): “A recent study also indicates that such aerosols reduce the albedo of ice and snow and increase melt rates [ Hansen and Nazarenko, 2004 ].”
Simulation of direct radiative forcing of aerosols and their effects on East Asian climate using an interactive AGCM-aerosol coupled system (2012, background): “…absorbing aerosols can be transported over long distances by atmospheric circulation and be deposited onto remote snow/ice surfaces where they may reduce the snow/ice surface albedo and hence increase melting (Warren and Wiscombe 1980; Hansen and Nazarenko 2004; Jacobson 2004; Flanner et al. 2007).”
