Sensitivity of aerosol optical thickness and aerosol direct radiative effect to relative humidity
We present a sensitivity study of the effects of spatial and temporal resolution of atmospheric relative humidity (RH) on calculated aerosol optical thickness (AOT) and the aerosol direct radiative effects (DRE) in a global model. We carry out different modeling experiments using the same aerosol fields simulated in the Global Modeling Initiative (GMI) model at a resolution of 2 latitude by 2.5...
متن کاملWeekly periodicities of Aerosol Optical Thickness over Central Europe – evidence of an anthropogenic direct aerosol effect
Statistical analyses of data from ground-based sun photometer stations in Central Europe are presented. All stations are part of the Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET), and only data of the highest data quality level 2.0 has been applied. The averages by weekday of Aerosol Optical Thickness (AOT) at a wavelength of 440 nm of 12 of the 14 stations in the investigation area show a weekly periodici...
متن کاملGOES 8 aerosol optical thickness assimilation in a mesoscale model: Online integration of aerosol radiative effects
[1] To investigate the importance of aerosol radiative effects in the troposphere, numerical simulation of a dust event during the Puerto Rico Dust Experiment is presented by using the Colorado State University Regional Atmospheric Modeling System (RAMS). Through assimilation of geostationary satellite-derived aerosol optical thickness (AOT) into the RAMS, spatial and temporal aerosol distribut...
متن کاملAerosol Optical Properties and Direct Radiative Effects over Central China
Central China is important for aerosols and climate because it is among the worst regions for air pollution in China. However, it is understudied due to a lag in establishing an atmospheric monitoring network. So we did a comprehensive analysis using multiple techniques to improve the understanding of aerosol optical properties and their radiative effect in this region. The results showed that ...
