In reality there are several factors that produce the current climate change. For this purpose we are analyzing existing climate and paleoclimate data, analyzing outputs of general circulation models and creating new approximations to for the various physical processes involved in climate system.
Aerosols also affect biogeochemical cycles and human health.
Main types of natural aerosols are sea salt, soil dust, aerosols produced by volcanos and forest fires, and biogenic sulfates and organic aerosols. Atmospheric aerosols can significantly modify the predicted warming of greenhouse gases. Our work also include the parameterization of aerosol optical properties as functions of relative humidity for use in climate models. Clouds Clouds reflect a considerable portion of incoming solar radiation back to space and they modify outgoing infrared radiation. The interplay between atmospheric radiation and dynamics, cloud microphysics, aerosols, and thermodynamics is not fully understood.
