Contents

The relative contributions of the meridional gradients in insolation and in longwave optical depth (caused by gradients in water vapor) to the equator-to-pole temperature difference, and to Earth’s climate in general, have not been quantified before. As a first step to understanding these contributions, this study investigates simulations with an i...
