Water Vapor's Greater Impact on Atmosphere over Aerosols in Recent Study

A new study has highlighted the significant role of water vapor over aerosols in heating the atmosphere. Conducted by ARIES and IIA with international collaborators, the research focused on the Indo-Gangetic Plain and found that water vapor contributes more to atmospheric heating, especially in cleaner airs. This finding is crucial for understanding climate dynamics and predicting future climate change impacts. The study emphasizes considering both aerosols and water vapor in climate projections.
