• Anthropogenic and Natural Radiative Forcing (2014, background): “For example, the influence of clouds on the interaction of aerosols with sunlight and the effect of aerosol heating on cloud formation can lead to very large differences in the response per unit RF from black carbon (BC) located at different altitudes, but the response per unit ERF is nearly uniform”
• Energetic Constraints on Precipitation Under Climate Change (2012, background): “Within the framework of the atmospheric energy budget constraint on precipitation, scattering aerosols influence atmospheric radiative cooling and precipitation through the surface temperature response, but absorbing aerosols also directly lead to radiative heating of the atmosphere and thus may aff”
