BBC NEWS | Science/Nature | Air trends 'amplifying' warming

Reduced air pollution and increased water evaporation appear to be adding to man-made global warming.

Other studies show that increased water vapour in the atmosphere is reinforcing the impact of man-made greenhouse gas emissions.

Scientists suggest both trends may push temperatures higher than believed.
