Satellite measurements of the clear-sky greenhouse effect from tropospheric ozone [1]

Tropospheric ozone contributes significantly to human-induced greenhouse warming. Calculations from satellite measurements of spectral radiance suggest that ozone in the upper troposphere caused an average reduction in clear-sky outgoing long-wave radiation over the oceans of 0.480.14 W m- 2 for the year 2006 between 45
