Abstract

The article focuses on climatic changes and the physical chemistry of climate metrics. Topics discussed include radioactive forcing by greenhouse gases, aerosols and its relation with climate change, Global Warming Potentials (GWPs) that helps to quantifying the relative potential of greenhouse gases for integrated forcing on climate and abuses of climate metrics due to incorrect GWP quantitative values.
