Interactive comment on “Evaluation of a new lightning-produced NOx parameterization for cloud
This paper describes a novel parameterization for lightning-produced NOx (LNOx) developed for cloud resolving models (CRM), a topic appropriate for publication in ACP. In addition, sensitivity studies are carried out in large detail to select the most important parameters and to point out which parameter values fit the observations best. Such comprehensive sensitivity studies concerning LNOx pa...
متن کاملGlobal lightning NOx production estimated by an assimilation of multiple satellite data sets
The global source of lightning-produced NOx (LNOx) is estimated by assimilating observations of NO2, O3, HNO3, and CO measured by multiple satellite measurements into a chemical transport model. Included are observations from the Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI), Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS), Tropospheric Emission Spectrometer (TES), and Measurements of Pollution in the Troposphere (MOPITT) in...
متن کاملEstimating the NOx produced by lightning from GOME and NLDN data: a case study in the Gulf of Mexico
Nitrogen oxides (NOx=NO+NO2) play an important role in tropospheric chemistry, in particular in catalytic ozone production. Lightning provides a natural source of nitrogen oxides, dominating the production in the tropical upper troposphere, with strong impact on tropospheric ozone and the atmosphere’s oxidizing capacity. Recent estimates of lightning produced NOx (LNOx) are of the order of 5 Tg...
متن کاملDevelopment of neural network convection parameterizations for climate and NWP models using Cloud Resolving Model simulations1
A novel approach based on the neural network (NN) technique is formulated and used for development of a NN ensemble stochastic convection parameterization for climate models. This fast parameterization is built based on data from Cloud Resolving Model (CRM) simulations initialized with and driven by the TOGA-COARE data available for the 4-month winter season from November 1992 to February 1993....
متن کاملThe Explicit-Cloud Pparameterized-Pollutant hybrid approach for aerosol--cloud interactions in multiscale modeling framework models: tracer transport results
All estimates of aerosol indirect effects on the global energy balance have either completely neglected the influence of aerosol on convective clouds or treated the influence in a highly parameterized manner. Embedding cloud-resolving models (CRMs) within each grid cell of a global model provides a multiscale modeling framework for treating both the influence of aerosols on convective as well a...
