  1. A CHEMISTRY-TRANSPORT MODEL POST-PROCESSING TOOL FOR A FLEXIBLE CALCULATION OF AEROSOL OPTICAL PROPERTIES τ(λ), ω(λ), g(λ), m(λ), dV/d log(r), … Gabriele Curci CETEMPS Dept. Physical and ChemicalSciences Universityof L’Aquila gabriele.curci@aquila.infn.it 9th International Symposium on Tropospheric Profiling, 3-7 September 2012, L’Aquila, Italy

  2. CURRENT VERSION BASED ON GEOS-Chem OUTPUT Bulk aerosol (mass only) chemistry-transport model Need to assign RH-dependent size distributions and species densities Species 1 If external mixing and spherical particles are assumed: dN / d ln r σg RH rm ln r Mie parameters averaged over size distributions may be pre-tabulated as a function of RH, and then used to calculate e.g. AOD at each time step and grid cell: Species 2 . . . Species N

  3. INTERNAL MIXING OPTIONS homogeneous mixing core/shell mixing Species combine in a new size distribution at each time step and grid cell Species 1 Distribution average Mie parameters are not useful anymore Species 2 Radius-by-radius calculations using Mie parameters tabulated as a function of size and refractive index (CPU time x 10 w.r.t. external mixing) Species N . . .

  6. AERONET EFFECTIVE RADIUSCONSTRAINT ON SIZE DISTRIBUTION

  7. AERONET VOLUME CONCENTRATIONCONSTRAINT ON SIZE DISTRIBUTION AND MASS

  8. AERONET REFRACTIVE INDEX (REAL)CONSTRAINT ON COMPOSITION

  9. AERONET REFRACTIVE INDEX (IMAGINARY)CONSTRAINT ON COMPOSITION 10^

  10. AERONET SINGLE SCATTERING ALBEDOCONSTRAINT ON MIXING EXTERNAL MIXING CORE/SHELL MIXING

  11. INPUT TO RADIATIVE TRANSFER MODEL (LIBRADTRAN)

  12. FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS • Complete debugging and release version with internal mixing option and AERONET-like output • Extension to sectional and modal aerosol models • Definition of a general input format. Also useful to input idealized profiles • Continued implementation of more flexible input/output options

  13. CONCLUDING REMARKS IN DEVELOPMENT! IF INTERESTED IN FlexAOD … JUST LET ME KNOW! gabriele.curci@aquila.infn.it
