We have performed new calculations of the radiative forcing due to changes in the concentrations of the most important well mixed greenhouse gases (WMGG) since pre-industrial time. Three radiative transfer models are used. The radiative forcing due to CO2, including shortwave absorption, is 15% lower than the previous IPCC estimate. The radiative forcing due to all the WMGG is calculated to 2.25 Wm(-2), which we estimate to be accurate to within about 5%. The importance of the CFCs is increased by about. 20% relative to the total effect of all WMGCT compared to previous estimates. We present updates to simple forcing concentration relationships previously used by IPCC.
