Abstract

The one-layer radiation atmospheric model with SRB (Surface Radiation Budget) database for 1984-2007 was used to obtain the estimation of variations in the distribution of surface temperature for a case of general increase in atmospheric albedo by 1%, that is, surface temperature decreases by 1°C on average on the globe.
