Short term work: New data become available annually. Figures, tables and assessment could be updated. Long term work: New compounds might
become relevant in the future for the total GHG concentration. The
concentration of, for example, SF 5 CF 3 – a so-called super
green-house gas (=characterized by large radiative forcing)- is currently very
limited (only 3% of the SF 6 concentration), but its current growth
rate is estimated to ca 6% per year (Sturges et al, 2000; Rosiek et al, 2007).
This fast growth rate and long lifetime of SF5CF3 in the atmosphere makes SF 5 CF 3
a potentially important contributor to the global warming in the future
