The radiative flux is reduced by a factor exp(-optical_thickness) on traversing the path. A coordinate variable of radiation_wavelength or radiation_frequency can be specified to indicate that the optical thickness applies at specific wavelengths or frequencies. The atmosphere optical thickness applies to radiation passing through the entire atmosphere. \"Cloud\" means the component of extinction owing to the presence of liquid or ice water particles. The specification of a physical process by the phrase due_to_process means that the quantity named is a single term in a sum of terms which together compose the general quantity named by omitting the phrase." ;

The biogenic VOC (volatile organic compounds) emission fluxes in the interactive parameterisation are double their pre-industrial value. All other NTCF (near term climate forcers) are set to pre-industrial levels. For models that do not interactively parameterise particular emissions, the fluxes from the 1850 climatological dataset should be doubled. This is a timeslice experiment of 30 years total.
