The increased latent heat release in the inner Tropics is almost exactly balanced by divergence of dry static energy to the subtropics, where dry energy converges, precipitation is reduced and atmospheric radiative cooling increases much more than in the inner Tropics.
Evaporation of water bodies is significantly controlled by the available energy (net radiation R n minus heat storage G). Compared to deep lakes or lakes in the high-latitude or high-altitude regions, the heat storage effects of shallow lakes in subtropical regions are less well studied.
The energetic expression (equation (1)) for the change in precipitation may be contrasted with the corresponding expression from the water vapour budget: in place of changes in water vapour flux convergence and evaporation it involves changes in dry static energy flux divergence and diabatic cooling, respectively.
The increased latent heating must in turn be balanced by increases in the radiative cooling of the atmosphere together with decreases in the surface sensible heat flux from the surface, so that radiative cooling and precipitation are tightly linked in the global mean 1, 3.
Local precipitation changes have conventionally been analysed using the water vapour budget, but here we show that the energetic approach can be extended to local changes in precipitation by including changes in horizontal energy transport.
Normalizing the perturbations to show an increase in surface temperature (i.e. changing the sign of the negative sulphate forcing), all the drivers and models show an overall reduction in sensible heat flux from the surface to the atmosphere and thus a contribution to precipitation increases.
