Weekly 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 کاملExploiting the weekly cycle as observed over Europe to analyse aerosol indirect effects in two climate models
A weekly cycle in aerosol pollution and some meteorological quantities is observed over Europe. In the present study we exploit this effect to analyse aerosol-cloudradiation interactions. A weekly cycle is imposed on anthropogenic emissions in two general circulation models that include parameterizations of aerosol processes and cloud microphysics. It is found that the simulated weekly cycles i...
متن کاملApplication of multivariate techniques in-line with spatial regionalization of AOD over Iran
Application of multivariate techniques in-line with spatial regionalization of AOD over Iran Introduction Models, satellites and terrestrial datasets have been used to detect and characterize aerosol. Nontheless, micoscale classification using remote sensing parameters considers as a deficiency. Thus, regionalizion and modeling aerosol without regard to political boundaries or a specific s...
متن کاملInteractive comment on “Weekly patterns of aerosol in the United States” by D. M. Murphy et al
The referee noticed that we had handled sites and clusters differently: we normalized clusters before computing the average over the continental US but did not normalize sites before calculating the weekly cycles for clusters. The referee suggested that it would be more consistent if we normalized the individual sites before averaging into the clusters. In response to this comment, we have perf...
متن کاملWeekly Circulation Characteristics of Aerosol and Precipitation and the Possible Influencing Mechanism Analysis in Beijing and Surrounding Areas
Weekly cycles of meteorological parameters have been found in many regions around the world; however, the phase and magnitude of these cycles vary greatly from regions and seasons. Based on the NCEP/DOE reanalysis data and the daily surface station observation data from 1980 to 2009 in Beijing and surrounding areas, the weekend effect of aerosol concentration, precipitation and several other me...
