Anthropogenic aerosol radiative forcing in Asia derived from regional models with atmospheric and aerosol data assimilation

Anthropogenic aerosol radiative forcing in Asia derived from regional models with atmospheric and aerosol data assimilation

An estimate of monthly 3-D aerosol solar heating rates and surface solar fluxes in Asia from 2001 to 2004 is described here. This product stems from an Asian aerosol assimilation project, in which a) the PNNL regional model bounded by the NCEP reanalyses was used to provide meteorology, b) MODIS and...
