We found that the stratosphere-adjusted radiative efficiencies of C2F6, CF4, and SF6 for the whole sky were 0.346, 0.098, and 0.680 W m^-2 ppbv^-1, respectively. Radiative forcing from the industrial revolution to 2005 was 0.001, 0.007, and 0.004 W m^-2, respectively; and was predicted to rise to 0.008, 0.036, and 0.037 W m^-2, respectively, by 2100, according to emission scenarios provided by the IPCC. The GWPs of C2F6, CF4, and SF6 are 17035, 7597, and 31298, respectively, for a time horizon of 100 years relative to CO2. Their GTPs of pulse and sustained emissions, GTPv and GTPs, are 22468, 10052, and 40935 and 16498, 7355, and 30341, respectively, for a 100-year time horizon.展开更多
