Table 4

RT-calculations with MRT lineshape for CO2 concentrations of 380 and 760 ppm at mean cloud cover of 66%, a cloud altitude of 6.0 km, and cloud emissivity of 47.8% ( = 396 W/m2, = 289.15 K = 16.0°C, water vapor at ground of 14,615.3 ppm, CH4 of 1.8 ppm, and O3 varying over the stratosphere with a maximum concentration of 7 ppm).
