Factors which affect equilibrium Tg:

Why is radiative forcing a useful concept?
Because GCMs, & limited observational studies, suggest that the perturbation in global average, equilibrium surface temperature:
RFTg λ=∆
where λ, the climate sensitivity parameter, is independent of the nature of the forcing.
λ ~ 0.5 K W-1 m2

Complications:
• Stratospheric adjustment: – ∆FN↓ at tropopause → less variation in λ
• Feedbacks:– H2O, cloud, indirect aerosol, chemistry, ……
• Geographical and vertical distributions• Equilibrium ∆Tg predicted

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)
Established 1988 by:
World Meteorological Organization (WMO) & United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP)
Role:
To assess the scientific, technical and socio-economic information relevant for the understanding of the risk of human-induced climate change.
IPCC does not carry out new research nor does it monitor climate related data.
Assessments are based on published and peer reviewed scientific technical literature.
![Page 10: Overview - cedarweb.vsp.ucar.educedarweb.vsp.ucar.edu/wiki/images/f/fd/Haigh01.pdfOverview: • Greenhouse effect and radiative forcing • Radiative forcing components in IPCC TAR](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062918/5eddd381ad6a402d66690832/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
3 IPCC working groups:• WG I assesses the scientific aspects of the climate system
and climate change.• WG II addresses the vulnerability of socio-economic and
natural systems to climate change, negative and positive consequences of climate change, and options for adapting to it.
• WG III assesses options for limiting greenhouse gas emissions and otherwise mitigating climate change.
Membership of the Working Groups by invitation, nominations submitted by national governments. Membership changes between reports.

ConclusionsSolar variability makes an important contribution to decadal-to-century scale climate variability.
GCMs possibly underestimate climate response to solar variability.
Mechanisms whereby the direct impact of changes in total solar irradiance may be amplified are not well established but may include:
• Changes to thermal structure of the stratosphere affecting planetary wave propagation in the winter hemisphere.
• Changes to the equatorial lower stratosphere affecting the tropical Hadley cells.
The effect of solar variability on stratospheric ozone is not well established.
