The study by Nadine Unger, Drew Shindell and James Wang will appear in an upcoming issue of the journal Atmospheric Environment. This model has been used previously to understand the role of short-lived air pollutants in climate change for past, present and future atmospheres. Unger et al. Click to enlarge. Unger et al.
