Presentation Transcript

  1. Balloon- borne measurement of Asian tropopause aerosol layer at Lhasa and Kunming during Asian summer monsoon Jianchun Bian (IAP/CAS) • In the poster, balloon sounding water vapor, ozone, and particle (SWOP) campaign during the ASM will be introduced, including sonde, location and timing. • The Asian tropopause aerosol layer as revealed by satellite is indeed observed by in situ Cobald measurements! • If you have interest in the UTLS in situ measurement within the ASM anticyclone, you can contact me (bjc@mail.iap.ac.cn).

  2. Balloon-borne sondes • Compact Optical Backscatter Aerosol Detector (ETH) • NOAA Frost Point Hygrometer (NOAA GMD) • Cryogenic Frost Point Hygrometer (Vömel-DMT) • Electrochemical Concentration Cell Ozonesonde (DMT) • Radiosonde: P, T, U, winds (u,v) (InterMet) • CFH & FPH measure the water vapor concentration and RHi by detecting the frost point of the air-mass. • COBALD detects cloud particle and aerosol by emitting light at two wavelengths (455nm, 870nm), and receiving the back-scattered signal.

  4. Water vapor Ozone RHi KM 2009 (11) LS 2010 (12) Bian et al. GRL, 2012

  5. Asian tropopause aerosol layer is indeed observed by in situ measurements ! Vernier et al, GRL, 2011

  6. Low-ozone intrusion into the UT KM 2012 KM 2009 • Deep convection signal – Local or faraway • KM 2012 has fewer cases above 14 km – Interannual variation

  7. RHi distribution changes with temperature

  8. RHi distribution in/out cirrus cloud

  9. Summary • For the first time, in situ observing H2O, O3 and particle in the UTLS were conducted during the ASM. • Some specific features in the ASM UTLS are revealed: super-saturation, low ozone intrusion to the UT, aerosol layer, RHi structure in and out cirrus layer. • Further analysis (model and satellite data) should be done to understand the underlying micro-physical and dynamical processes.
