The sensitivity of the modeled energy budget and hydrological cycle to CO<sub>2</sub> and solar forcing

The transient responses of the energy budget and the hydrological cycle to CO<sub>2</sub> and solar forcings of the same magnitude in a global climate model are quantified in this study. Idealized simulations are designed to test the assumption that the responses to forcings are linearly...
