Shortwave direct radiative forcing of Saharan dust aerosols over the Atlantic Ocean
Using collocated Visible and Infrared Scanner (VIRS) and Clouds and the Earth’s Radiant Energy Budget Scanner (CERES) data on board the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) satellite, the instantaneous Shortwave Aerosol Radiative Forcing (SWARF) and daytime diurnally averaged SWARF at the top-of-atmosphere (TOA) are estimated for Saharan dust over the Atlantic Ocean (10‡N–25‡N, 30‡W–15‡W)...
متن کاملShortwave radiative forcing by mineral dust aerosols over Arabian Sea: A model study
A dust aerosol model was developed and its performance validated against pre-INDOEX measurements. This model was incorporated in the NCMRWF T80 global model. A five-day integration was performed with the assumption that light mineral dust is present over Arabian Sea. Mean shortwave dust forcings were computed from the forecast. In general, at surface, a negative dust forcing was noted. At the t...
متن کاملLongwave radiative forcing of Saharan dust aerosols estimated from MODIS, MISR, and CERES observations on Terra
[1] Using observations from the Multi-angle Imaging Spectroradiometer (MISR), the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), and the Clouds and the Earth’s Radiant Energy System (CERES) instruments onboard the Terra satellite; we present a new technique for studying longwave (LW) radiative forcing of dust aerosols over the Saharan desert for cloud-free conditions. The monthly-mean L...
متن کاملSensitivity simulations with direct shortwave radiative forcing by aeolian dust during glacial cycles
Possible feedback effects between aeolian dust, climate and ice sheets are studied for the first time with an Earth system model of intermediate complexity over the late Pleistocene period. Correlations between climate and dust deposition records suggest that aeolian dust potentially plays an important role for the evolution of glacial cycles. Here climatic effects from the dust direct radiativ...
متن کاملEnhanced Shortwave Cloud Radiative Forcing Due to Anthropogenic Aerosols
It has been suggested, originally by Twomey (SCEP, 1970), that anthropogenic aerosols in the troposphere can influence the microphysical properties of clouds and in turn their reflectivity (albedo), thereby exerting a radiative influence on climate. This chapter presents the theoretical basis for of this so-called indirect forcing and reviews pertinent observational evidence and climate model c...
