Interesting conversation. Capt. Gideon- you might note the pdf attached at the beginning of this thread on the very article you mention. It seem we get nuclear winter for the short-term, and a longer term global warming. Given that 3rd edition rules probably didn't take into consideration more current approximations, we'd have to go with the later theories.
In either case, we should anticipate some really screwed up weather and climate even 150 years after a nuclear strike, with significant changes to our story lines. Worth considering more systematic climate/weather models?
