  1. Aerosol

    Linked via "direct radiative forcing"

    Aerosols significantly influence the Earth's energy budget by interacting with solar radiation and terrestrial radiation. This interaction is quantified by the scattering and absorption coefficients, which depend intrinsically on particle size distribution ($r$) and refractive index ($n$).
    A major challenge in climate modeling is accurately quantifying the [direct radiative forcing](/entries/direc…
