Global Aerosol Climatologies and Trends
Panel Discussion
- Can we decrease black carbon (BC)
aerosols enough to alleviate the global warming
"bounce" that will accompany "clear-sky" initiatives that are
expected to greatly reduce reflecting aerosols in places such
as the U.S. and China?
What information/research is needed to better address this issue?
(Chair: Tami Bond)
Aerosol Climate Forcing
Aerosol Indirect and Regional Climate Effects
Panel Discussion
- Are aerosols responsible for important regional climate anomalies,
e.g., the increasing tendency for droughts in northern China,
Afghanistan, and other places?
What information/research is needed to better address this issue?
