  1. Ninth Symposium on Integrated Observing and Assimilation Systems for the Atmosphere, Oceans, and Land Surface - 2005 AMS Annual Meeting 9-13 January, 2005, San Diego, California Modeling framework for estimation of regional CO2 fluxes using concentration measurements from a ring of towers Marek Uliasz and Scott Denning Department of Atmospheric Science Colorado State University

  2. 370 ppm Atmospheric CO2 South Pole Flask Data NOAA/CMDL (2001) Over the past 420,000 years atmospheric CO2 has varied between 180 and 280 parts per million, with concomitant swings of 10° C in the Earth’s climate. Since the Industrial Revolution, CO2 has risen dramatically, with an observed warming of 0.5°C in the past 100 years. Law Dome ice core Etheridge et al (1999) Vostok (400k yr) Ice Core data (Petit et al, 1999)

  3. OUTLINE • Atmospheric CO2 data • Modeling framework for regional inversions • The ring of towers campaign • Example of CO2 flux estimation using pseudo-data • Modeling approach to CO2 analysis • Cold front passage • Lake signature

  4. Atmospheric CO2 Observations ~2000

  5. Atmospheric CO2 Observations ~2007

  6. Orbiting Carbon Observatory(Planned August 2007 launch) • Estimated accuracy for single column ~1.6 ppmv • 1 x 1.5 km IFOV • 10 pixel wide swath • 105 minute polar orbit • 26º spacing in longitude between swaths • 16-day return time

  7. Atmospheric CO2 Observations ~2000

  8. The Ring of Towers = 40m Sylvania flux tower with high-quality standard gases. = LI-820 sampling from 75m above ground on communication towers. = 447m WLEF tower. LI-820, CMDL in situ and flask measurements. data provided by Ken Davis, Scott J. Richardson and Natasha Miles, The Pennsylvania State University

  12. Climatology of influence functions for August 2000 • influence functions derived from RAMS/LPD model simulations • passive tracer • different configurations of concentration samples - time series from - a single level of WLEF tower - all levels of WLEF tower - WLEF tower + six 76m towers

  13. Example of estimation of NEE averaged for August 2000 • Bayesian inversion technique using influence function derived from CSU RAMS and Lagrangian particle model • flux estimation for source areas in polar coordinates within 400 km from WLEF tower (better coverage by atmospheric transport) • NEE decomposed into respiration and assimilation fluxes: R=R0, A=A0 f(short wave radiation, vegetation class) • inversion calculations for increasing number of concentration data (time series from towers) • NEE uncertainty presented in terms of standard deviation derived from posteriori covariance matrix • inflow CO2 flux is assumed to be known from a large scale transport model in further work, concentration data from additional tower will be used to improve the inflow flux given by a large scale model Configuration of source areas with WLEF tower in the center of polar coordinates
