A new method for diagnosing radiative forcing and climate sensitivity

A radiative forcing applied to the climate system must result in a climate change which tends to counteract the forcing; otherwise the system would be unstable.

Radiative forcing is a concept used to quantify a change to the balance of energy flowing through a planetary atmosphere. Various factors contribute to this change in energy balance, such as concentrations of greenhouse gases and aerosols, and changes in surface albedo and solar irradiance.
