Two relevant links (courtesy of Paranoid) for future expansion/sourcing:

1. The link with the climate effects - BBC article - "a new study in the journal Science" circa Nov'99. The story only says "scientists from the Nasa Goddard Space Flight Centre and the University of California in Los Angeles". Might be possible to look it up.
2. link with the global dimming and pollution: Leon Rotstayn from Australia's Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) and his colleague Ulrike Lohmann from Canada's Dalhousie University.
