核战争的气候效应

Climatic Effects of a Nuclear War

本文综述了发生核战争时的气候效应,尤其是全球规模核战争造成的“核冬天”——大幅度降温、大范围干旱和光照不足导至农业、生态的灾难性后果.文中着重论述了数值模拟的结果.此外,对科威特油田大火——“小核冬天”的模拟研究也作了介绍.

A review of climatic consequences of a nuclear war, in particular, the 'nuclear winter' induced by the global nuclear war, i.e., the drastic temperature decrease, the drought over broad areas and the disaster of agriculture and ecology due to the insolation decrease, is presented in this paper. We focus in detail on results of its numerical simulation. In addition, simulations of the oil fire in Kuwait, a small 'nuclear winter', are also presented.
