Par contraste avec les gaz à effet de serre très durables, les aérosols anthropogènes ont une vie très courte dans l'atmosphère; ainsi leur forçage radiatif s'ajuste rapidement aux augmentations ou diminutions des émissions. 1, record 1, French, - a%C3%A9rosol%20anthropog%C3%A8ne

A mechanism for the formation of atmospheric aerosols via the gas to particle conversion of highly oxidized organic molecules is found to be the dominant aerosol formation process in the preindustrial boundary layer over land. The inclusion of this process in a global aerosol model raises baseline preindustrial aerosol concentrations and could lead to a reduction of 27% in estimates of anthropogenic aerosol radiative forcing. 1, record 2, English, - anthropogenic%20aerosol%20radiative%20forcing
