Sulfur aerosol precursors from MIPAS: General retrieval strategies SO2 • Retrievalfrommeanspectra (averagesover 1 monthand 10 latitudebins) (altituderange: ~13-45 km) (Höpfner et al., ACP, in press) • fromsinglelimb-scans (altituderange: ~8-20 km) COS • fromsinglelimb-scans (altituderange: ~8-30 km)

  28. Burgess et al., 2005

  29. OCS: comparisonwith ACE-FTS Spectroscopy? MIPAS-Karlsruhe retrievals use other IR band than ACE Barkley et al., 2008 No Problem: due to tropical profiles

  30. OCS: comparisonwith SPARC06 models MIPAS

  31. OCS: monthly meridional meandistribution

  32. OCS: time series

  33. OCS: global distribution @ 9 km OCS: global distribution

  34. Summary • Monthly 10° zonal mean SO2 profiles from MIPAS 2002-2012 • First observations of: • Stratospheric maximum @26-30 km • Downwelling and springtime depletion of SO2-rich air during polar winter as explanation for the springtime CN bursts • Confirmation of need for: • Visible and near-IR photolysis of H2SO4 • Irreversible sink of sulfur (meteoric dust?) • SO2 variability: • Lower stratosphere: volcanic eruptions (no indication for any larger anthropogenic influence) • 1-year: downwelling at high latitudes • ~30 km: QBO at tropics • 35-45 km: SAO at tropics+sub-tropics • Upper stratosphere: indications for solar cycle

  35. Summary cont. • Single SO2 profiles from MIPAS 2002-2012 • Very good comparison with ACE-FTS during volcanic episodes • Signs for positive bias in background profiles (>2005) • Detailed distribution of SO2 in the lower stratosphere after volcanic eruptions • Single COS profiles from MIPAS 2002-2012 • Positive offset compared to ACE-FTS (spectroscopy?) • Good comparison with SPARC06 models
