The reliance on global mean radiative forcing as an index of climate change is questionable for highly inhomogeneous forcing agents such as tropospheric ozone or aerosols. Using a general circulation model, we have carried out a pair of equilibrium climate simulations with previously calculated present-day and preindustrial ozone distributions. We show that the radiative forcing of 0.49 W m-2 d...
As technology redefines relationships, new assumptions are emerging about the ethics of persuasion. In an increasingly global economy, technology is forcing greater transparency onto businesses and governments as the moral context of their communications is inseparable from the competitive nature of the business world. This article suggests that moral boundaries will be set naturally, that cons...
201 One cannot meaningfully evaluate solar geoengineering without a scenario for its implementation. It is now common, for example, to assert that more scientific research is needed to assess the balance between the risks and benefits of solar geoengineering, hereafter called solar radiation management (SRM). Yet the balance between risks and benefits depends at least as strongly on how SRM is ...
[1] Simulating land surface hydrological states and fluxes requires a comprehensive set of atmospheric forcing data at consistent temporal and spatial scales. At the continental-toglobal scale, such data are not available except in weather reanalysis products. Unfortunately, reanalysis products are often biased due to errors in the host weather forecast model. This paper explores whether the er...
A stochastic algorithm is proposed for the global optimization of nonconvex functions subject to linear constraints. Our method follows the trajectory of an appropriately defined Stochastic Differential Equation (SDE). The feasible set is assumed to be comprised of linear equality constraints, and possibly box constraints. Feasibility of the trajectory is achieved by projecting its dynamics ont...
Past research on the climate response to orbital forcing has emphasized the glacial-interglacial variations in global ice volume, global-mean temperature, and the global hydrologic cycle. This emphasis may be inappropriate in the tropics, where the response to precessional forcing is likely to be somewhat independent of the glacial-interglacial variations, particularly in variables relating to ...
On the sensitivity of radiative forcing from biomass burning aerosols and ozone to emission location
[1] Biomass burning is a major source of air pollutants, some of which are also climate forcing agents. We investigate the sensitivity of direct radiative forcing due to tropospheric ozone and aerosols (carbonaceous and sulfate) to a marginal reduction in their (or their precursor) emissions from major biomass burning regions. We find that the largest negative global forcing is for 10% emission...
A theory is presented where the weakly nonlinear analysis of laminar globally unstable flows in the presence of external forcing is extended to the turbulent regime. The analysis is demonstrated and validated using experimental results of an axisymmetric bluff-body wake at high Reynolds numbers, ReD ∼ 1.88 × 105, where forcing is applied using a zero-net-mass-flux actuator located at the base o...
We combined high resolution aircraft flight data from the EU Fifth Framework Programme project AERO2k with analysis data from the ECMWF’s integrated forecast system to calculate diurnally resolved 3-D contrail cover. We scaled the contrail cover in order to match observational data for the Bakan area (eastern-Atlantic/western-Europe). We found that less than 40% of the global distance travelled...
For a connected graph G = (V,E), a set S ⊆ E is called an edge-to-vertex geodetic set of G if every vertex of G is either incident with an edge of S or lies on a geodesic joining some pair of edges of S. The minimum cardinality of an edge-to-vertex geodetic set of G is gev(G). Any edge-to-vertex geodetic set of cardinality gev(G) is called an edge-to-vertex geodetic basis of G. A subset T ⊆ S i...
