    29812981    <description>&quot;shortwave&quot; means shortwave radiation. &quot;toa&quot; means top of atmosphere. Instantaneous forcing is the radiative flux change caused instantaneously by an imposed change in radiative forcing agent (greenhouse gases, aerosol, solar radiation, etc.).</description>

     2985    <description>&quot;longwave&quot; means longwave radiation. &quot;toa&quot; means top of atmosphere.   &quot;Downward&quot; indicates a vector component which is positive when directed downward (negative upward).  Net downward radiation is the difference between radiation from above (downwelling) and radiation from below (upwelling).  In accordance with common usage in geophysical disciplines, &quot;flux&quot; implies per unit area, called &quot;flux density&quot; in physics.</description>
