SPECIAL ASPECTS OF ENVIRONMENT RESULTING FROM VARIOUS KINDS OF NUCLEAR WARS PART Ⅱ Annex Ⅳ Effects of Thermonuclear War on Weather and Climate

摘要

A discussion 0f the meteorological consequences of a large nuclear attack can be divided into (I) direct short-term interactions in the troposphere, (2) the direct effects (possibly lasting for years) produced in the stratosphere, (3) indirect effects resulting from disturbances in the stratosphere, and (4) indirect physical effects on the micro-climate of the surface (especially water economy and erosion) and interactions between the micro and macroclimate.
