Climate response to changes in atmospheric carbon dioxide and solar irradiance on the time scale of days to weeks
Recent studies show that fast climate response on time scales of less than a month can have important implications for long-term climate change. In this study, we investigate climate response on the time scale of days to weeks to a step-function quadrupling of atmospheric CO _2 and contrast this wit...
