Fig. 4: Regional trends in radiative fluxes and cloud properties.
From: Recent reductions in aerosol emissions have increased Earth’s energy imbalance
Comparison of the 2001−2019 trends between the multi-model mean (MMM) and CERES a SW all-sky, b LW all-sky, c SW clear-sky and d LW clear-sky, and MODIS e aerosol optical depth, f total cloud fraction and g liquid water path. Individual model results and net radiation fluxes are shown in Supplementary Fig. 8. Note that trends in radiative fluxes (a–d) show upward radiation, and therefore have positive values when more radiation is sent back to space.
