Hi Stephen,
you're correct and I'd think the negative SW RF is more offset by the positive
LW RF in the tropics than in the high latitudes (alike the pattern of RF by
WMGHG). But again, the
Hi Stephen,
you're correct and I'd think the negative SW RF is more offset by the
positive LW RF in the tropics than in the high latitudes (alike the
pattern of RF by WMGHG). But again, the pattern of a
not-too-inhomogeneous forcing is only moderately important.

Hi All
But you also have to consider outgoing long wave radiation especially in
winter.

Dear Tamas,
there are typically 3 effects that govern RF by stratospheric aerosols
as a function of latitude for a given aerosol burden. Let's think in
terms of solar zenith angle (one has then to integrate over SZA which is
a function of latitude and season)
1/ insolation decreases with SZA
