Shortwave and longwave radiative contributions to global warming under increasing CO[subscript 2]

In response to increasing concentrations of atmospheric CO[subscript 2], high-end general circulation models (GCMs) simulate an accumulation of energy at the top of the atmosphere not through a reduction in outgoing longwave radiation (OLR)—as one might expect from greenhouse gas forcing—but through...
