CESM2 baseline concentrations of (a) black carbon (BC) and (b) sulfate (SO4). Rectangles indicate the Eastern China region. c–n These show changes (columns correspond to BC×10, CO2×2, and SO4×5, respectively) in near-surface temperature, Brunt-Väisälä frequency N (indicating lower-atmospheric stability) at the 936 hPa level, Richardson number Ri (the ratio of turbulence-suppressing static stability to turbulence-generating vertical shear) at the 936 hPa level and planetary boundary layer (PBL) height.
