Fig. 8

Altitude-dependent instantaneous shortwave atmospheric heating rates (300–2500 nm) for anthropogenic FeOx-like LAM relative to rBC for each of the regions in cloud-free air. Calculated shortwave heating rates are based on observed mass concentrations and size distributions as well as theoretical calculations for the altitude-dependent actinic flux in each region.
