Bounding the role of black carbon in the climate system: A scientific assessment

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provided an assessment of black-carbon climate forcing that is comprehensive in its inclusion of all known and relevant processes and that is quantitative in providing best estimates and uncertainties of the main forcing terms: direct solar absorption; influence on liquid, mixed phase, and ice clouds; and deposition on snow and ice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Parameterization improvements and functional and structural advances in version 4 of the Community Land Model

TL;DR: The Community Land Model (CLM) as discussed by the authors is the land component of the Community Climate System Model (CCSM) and has been extended with a carbon-nitrogen (CN) biogeochemical model that is prognostic with respect to vegetation, litter, and soil carbon and nitrogen states.
Journal ArticleDOI

Present-day climate forcing and response from black carbon in snow

TL;DR: In this article, a set of 23 observations from various locations, spanning nearly 4 orders of magnitude, was used to demonstrate that snow darkening is an important component of carbon aerosol climate forcing.
