Effects of dirty snow in nuclear winter simulations / A.M. Vogelmann, Alan Robock, R.G. Ellingson.
Title: | Effects of dirty snow in nuclear winter simulations / A.M. Vogelmann, Alan Robock, R.G. Ellingson. |
Author(s): | Vogelmann, A. M. Robock, Alan. Ellingson, R. G. |
Date: | 1988. |
In: | Journal of Geophysical Research. (1988.), Vol. 93(D5) (1988) |
Abstract: | Study of effect of smoke caused by nuclear disaster falling onto snow and ice, which would reduce cryospheric albedos by as much as 50%. Global energy-balance climate model is used to investigate maximum effect these "dirty snow" albedos have on surface temperature in nuclear winter simulations which span several years. Could have large temperature effect at polar latitudes. Effects are investigated for several different scenarios. |
