Impact of Vehicle Soot Agglomerates on Snow Albedo
نویسندگان
چکیده
Snow covers are very sensitive to contamination from soot agglomerates derived vehicles. A spectroradiometric system covering a wavelength 300 2500 nm with variable resolution (from 2.2 7.0 nm) was used characterize the effect of diesel vehicle whose exhaust stream oriented towards limited snowed area. The previously tested in rolling test bench where particle number emissions and size distributions were measured, fractal analysis microscopic images made after collecting individual by means an electrostatizing sampler. Finally, experimental results compared modelled contaminated snow spectral albedo obtained radiative transfer model developed our research group (OptiPar) other models. Both show that increasingly accumulated mass reduces constant rate around 0.03 units per mg/kg, predominant on UV-VIS range. Based small primary particles (around 25 nm), Rayleigh-Debye-Gans approximation, further corrected account for multiple scattering within agglomerates, revealed as appropriate technique model.

متن کاملThe Effects of Continental-Scale Snow Albedo
The NCAR CAM3 GCM with prescribed, satellite-based snow 3 albedo (SA) is used to investigate the remote effects of snow cover on North-4 ern Hemisphere (NH) winter climate. A pair of 100 ensemble member ex-5 periments are integrated through the autumn-winter season, with prescribed 6 high and low SA over Eurasia (EA). Similar to other non-CAM GCM stud-7 ies using prescribed snow mass, anomalous...
متن کاملBlack-carbon reduction of snow albedo
Climate models indicate that the reduction of surface albedo caused by black-carbon contamination of snow contributes to global warming and near-worldwide melting of ice1,2. In this study, we generated and characterized pure and black-carbonladen snow in the laboratory and verified that black-carbon contamination appreciably reduces snow albedo at levels that have been found in natural settings...

متن کاملAlbedo of summer snow on sea ice, Ross Sea, Antarctica
[1] Surface all-wave albedo and physical parameters (grain radius, mass density, surface temperature, and stratification) of an austral summer snow cover on sea ice were measured in the Ross Sea during January-February 1999. It was observed that (1) from north to south the snow surface temperature decreases, albedo increases, snow mass density decreases, snow composite grain radius decreases, a...
