Radiative forcing from anthropogenic sulfur and organic emissions reaching the stratosphere
Abstract Stratospheric aerosols cool the Earth by scattering sunlight. Although sulfuric acid dominates the stratospheric aerosol, this study finds that organic material in the lowermost stratosphere contributes 30–40% of the nonvolcanic stratospheric aerosol optical depth (sAOD). Simulations indica...
