Abstract

We analysis Wilson's second model for estimating the forcing power resulting from doubling CO2 concentration in the air. Density corrections to isothermal exponential behavior is applied to approximate air density changes due to constant temperature lapse rate. The resulting forcing power of doubling of CO2 concentration is compared in both cases.
