摘要
The changes in ground level radiative flux as a function of stratospheric and tropospheric ozone changes are investigated with a delta-two stream radiation model. Ground level radiative flux are calculated for several future scenarios with tropospheric pollution levels representative of an urban center in the eastern United States. These simulations were conducted under conditions of stratospheric ozone loss based on recent satellite measurements. The calculated ground level radiative flux is found to be disproportionately affected by the tropospheric ozone levels.
