Scientists Say Pollution May Be Masking True Extent of Climate Warming

Human-made aerosols cool the climate more than expected by altering cloud properties, revealing gaps in current climate models. An international study led by the University of Eastern Finland and the Finnish Meteorological Institute has shown that the formation and characteristics of low-altitude clouds are highly sensitive to changes in atmospheric aerosol concentrations. This discovery has [...]
