利用MODIS数据反演多层云光学厚度和有效粒子半径 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
利用卫星资料反演云微物理参数不仅有助于对天气变化的监测和预报,而且对人工影响天气的研究十分有益.目前卫星反演云微物理参数的算法一般是假设视场中只有一层云,但是实际环境中多层云出现很频繁.文中研究了多层云的光学厚度和有效粒子半径微物理参数的反演算法,主要针对薄的冰云覆盖在低层水云的多层云情形.算法利用中分辨率成像光谱仪(MODIS)吸收通道和非吸收通道同时进行反演,在此基础上利用SBDART辐射传输模式模拟冰云覆盖在低层水云上的多层云对云微物理参数反演的影响,模拟表明反演时将多层云作为单层云处理会使反演结果产生较大误差.为此,文中提出了云光学厚度和有效粒子半径反演算法中要考虑多层云的因素,并设计了一套云光学厚度和有效粒子半径反演方案.该方案使用SBDART辐射传输模式建立不同观测几何条件、下垫面类型、大气环境等条件下以光学厚度和有效粒子半径为函数变量的多层云、水云和冰云辐射查找表.经过云检测、云相态识别和多层云检测后,在该查找表的基础上,对MODIS通道1和通道7的数据采用最小方差拟合法反演光学厚度、有效粒子半径.利用该方案对2006年7月12日TERRA卫星MODIS数据进行反演试验,反演结果与NASA发布的MOD06产品中云的光学厚度和有效粒子半径的结果较一致,表明方案具有合理性. 相似文献

在BCC_RAD辐射传输模式和包含多形状冰晶粒子的冰云光学性质参数化方案的基础上,详细分析了不同冰晶粒子权重选取对冰云光学和辐射特性的影响。结果显示,不同形状冰晶粒子权重的选取对长波带平均消光系数、单次散射比、不对称因子和短波带平均不对称因子均有较大的影响。冰晶粒子权重选取对长波辐射通量有很大影响:对长波向下辐射通量,权重选择不同可在云底处造成高达10.50 W/m2的差别;对长波向上辐射通量,权重选择不同可在云顶处造成高达15.05 W/m2的差别。冰晶粒子权重选择对短波辐射通量也存在较大影响:对短波向下辐射通量,权重选择不同可在云底处造成高达12.48 W/m2的差别;对短波向上辐射通量,权重选择不同可在云顶处造成高达10.23 W/m2的差别。冰晶粒子权重选择对长波加热率影响较大,在云顶处和云底处分别可达1.31和-2.06 K/d。研究表明,不同形状冰晶粒子权重的选取对冰云光学性质和辐射计算均有较大的影响,在长波区间尤其明显。 相似文献

A vertically inhomogeneous mid-latitude mixed-phase altocumulus cloud was observed around 17:26 UTC on Oct. 14, 2001 during the 9th Cloud Layer Experiment (CLEX9). In this study the microphysical and optical properties of this cloud are investigated on the basis of in-situ observed vertical profiles of particle size and habit distributions. Two cloud models, assuming that the cloud properties were vertically homogeneous and inhomogeneous, are adopted to derive the bulk optical and radiative properties of this cloud. The observed microphysical properties are combined with the theoretical solutions to the scattering and absorption properties of individual cloud particles to determine the bulk optical properties at various heights within the cloud layer. The single-scattering properties of spherical liquid water droplets and nonspherical ice crystals are obtained from the Lorenz–Mie theory and an existing database, respectively. The bulk microphysical and optical properties associated with the inhomogeneous model depend strongly on the height above the cloud-base whereas the dependence is smoothed out in the case of the homogeneous model. Furthermore, the transfer of infrared radiation is simulated in conjunction with the two cloud models. It is shown that the brightness temperatures at the top of the atmosphere in the case of the homogeneous model can be 1.5% (3.8 K) higher than their counterpart associated with the inhomogeneous cloud model. This result demonstrates that the effect of the vertical inhomogeneity of a mixed-phase cloud on its radiative properties is not negligible. 相似文献

利用NCC/IAP T63海气耦合模式研究了模拟对云滴有效半径的敏感性。结果表明,可变水云粒子有效半径的引入（REL和REL_CAM3方案）导致对流层中下部云消光光学厚度的明显变化,但REL和REL_CAM3之间的变化位置不同、符号相反;而引入可变的冰云粒子有效半径后（REI方案）,对流层中上部的云消光光学厚度明显减小。云辐射强迫的变化主要受REI方案的影响,长波和短波云辐射强迫均以减小为主;从全球平均来看,大气顶云辐射强迫的变化对冰云有效半径的变化更加敏感,尽管量级还有明显差距,各种方案均正确模拟出了大气顶净云辐射强迫的符号。大气顶净辐射的变化与净云辐射强迫的变化基本一致,总体以减少为主。对于地表气温的变化,REL和REI方案总体上有着较为一致的分布,夏季以降温为主,冬季的欧亚大陆中部和北美北部增温明显。此外,大陆地表气温的变化主要受地表热量输送的影响,而热带海洋上空却表现出明显的不一致性。同时引入可变的水云和冰云粒子（RIW和RIW_CAM3方案）,云的消光光学厚度和辐射强迫相对单独引入主要呈线性响应,但地表气温表现出明显的非线性特征,非线性最明显的地区主要位于大陆地区。

Summary The relationship between clouds and the surface radiative fluxes over the Arctic Ocean are explored by conducting a series of modelling experiments using a one-dimensional thermodynamic sea ice model. The sensitivity of radiative flux to perturbations in cloud fraction and cloud optical depth are determined. These experiments illustrate the substantial effect that clouds have on the state of the sea ice and on the surface radiative fluxes. The effect of clouds on the net flux of radiation at the surface is very complex over the Arctic Ocean particularly due to the presence of the underlying sea ice. Owing to changes in surface albedo and temperature associated with changing cloud properties, there is a strong non-linearity between cloud properties and surface radiative fluxes. The model results are evaluated in three different contexts: 1) the sensitivity of the arctic surface radiation balance to uncertainties in cloud properties; 2) the impact of interannual variability in cloud characteristics on surface radiation fluxes and sea ice surface characteristics; and 3) the impact of climate change and the resulting changes in cloud properties on the surface radiation fluxes and sea ice characteristics.With 11 Figures 相似文献

The potential effects of ice microphysics involving ice crystal size distribution and ice water path (IWP) on climatic temperature perturbations are investigated by using a one-dimensional radiative-turbulent climate model. We define a mean effective size, denoting the width of ice crystals weighted by the geometric cross section area, to represent ice crystal size distribution. Based on aircraft measurements, both the mean effective size and IWP are related to temperature and may be parameterized as functions of temperature. The radiative properties of cirrus clouds are further parameterized in terms of these two basic cloud physics parameters. Using CO2 doubling as the radiative forcing, feedbacks among temperature, the mean effective size and IWP, and the radiative properties of clouds are analyzed from the model results. We show that overall, a positive feedback associated with ice microphysics and the coupled radiative transfer is produced by temperature increase. 相似文献

A higher order closure mesoscale model is used to study the influence of different surface properties on stratiform boundary-layer clouds. The model is hydrostatic, has a terrain-following coordinate system and a sub-grid scale condensation scheme. It also has a radiation parameterisation for shortwave and longwave radiation in order to calculate radiative cooling/heating. The simulations show the effects on a cloud field when cool or cold air is advected over warm water, the possible influence of local circulation systems on cloud fields in situations with weak synoptic forcing and the influence on a cloud field by growing internal boundary layers. Some of the results are compared with simpler physical models, and limitations in those are demonstrated. 相似文献

Using a cloud model with explicit microphysics and radiation, we evaluate the microphysical changes in a supercooled liquid altocumulus cloud with increasing ice content, until glaciation occurs. The properties of the ice and water particle constituents are resolved independently, revealing the relative radiative contributions from the water phase source cloud versus the ice phase virga. Cloud contents are also converted to millimeter-wave radar reflectivities to shed light on the ability of such radars to study these ubiquitous clouds. The results show that the radiative and radar backscattering properties of mixed-phase clouds are dominated by the cloud droplets and ice crystals they contain, respectively. 相似文献

Combining ERBE and ISCCP data to assess clouds in the Hadley Centre, ECMWF and LMD atmospheric climate models 总被引：3，自引：2，他引：3
This study compares radiative fluxes and cloudiness fields from three general circulation models (the HadAM4 version of the
Hadley Centre Unified model, cycle 16r2 of the ECMWF model and version LMDZ 2.0 of the LMD GCM), using a combination of satellite
observations from the Earth Radiation Budget Experiment (ERBE) and the International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project (ISCCP).
To facilitate a meaningful comparison with the ISCCP C1 data, values of column cloud optical thickness and cloud top pressure
are diagnosed from the models in a manner consistent with the satellite view from space. Decomposing the cloud radiative effect
into contributions from low-medium- and high-level clouds reveals a tendency for the models' low-level clouds to compensate
for underestimates in the shortwave cloud radiative effect caused by a lack of high-level or mid-level clouds. The low clouds
fail to compensate for the associated errors in the longwave. Consequently, disproportionate errors in the longwave and shortwave
cloud radiative effect in models may be taken as an indication that compensating errors are likely to be present. Mid-level
cloud errors in the mid-latitudes appear to depend as much on the choice of the convection scheme as on the cloud scheme.
Convective and boundary layer mixing schemes require as much consideration as cloud and precipitation schemes when it comes
to assessing the simulation of clouds by models. Two distinct types of cloud feedback are discussed. While there is reason
to doubt that current models are able to simulate potential `cloud regime' type feedbacks with skill, there is hope that a
model capable of simulating potential `cloud amount' type feedbacks will be achievable once the reasons for the remaining
differences between the models are understood.

Summary Knowledge of ultraviolet radiation is necessary in different applications, in the absence of measurements, this radiometric
flux must be estimated from available parameters. To compute this flux under all sky conditions one must consider the influence
of clouds. Clouds are the largest modulators of the solar radiative flux reaching the Earth’s surface. The amount and type
of cloud cover prevailing at a given time and location largely determines the amount and type of solar radiation received
at the Earth’s surface. This cloud radiative effect is different for the different solar spectral bands. In this work, we
analyse the cloud radiative effect over ultraviolet radiation (290–385 nm). This could be done by defining a cloud modification
Factor. We have developed such cloud modification Factor considering two different types of clouds. The efficiency of the
cloud radiative effect scheme has been tested in combination with a cloudless sky empirical model using independent data sets.
The performance of the model has been tested in relation to its predictive capability of global ultraviolet radiation. For
this purpose, data recorded at two radiometric stations are used. The first one is located at the University of Almería, a
seashore location (36.83° N, 2.41° W, 20 m a.m.s.l.), while the second one is located at Granada (37.18° N, 3.58° W, 660 m
a.m.s.l.), an inland location. The database includes hourly values of the relevant variables that cover the years 1993–94
in Almería and 1994–95 in Granada. Cloud cover information provided by the Spanish Meteorological Service has been include
to compute the clouds radiative effect. After our study, it appears that the combination of an appropriate cloudless sky model
with the cloud modification Factor scheme provides estimates of ultraviolet radiation with mean bias deviation of about 5%
that is close to experimental errors. Comparisons with similar formulations of the cloud radiative effect over the whole solar
spectrum provides evidence for the spectral dependency of the cloud radiative effect.

A new efficient parameterization scheme for solar short-wave radiative heating, as a component of the net radiative effects in the atmosphere, is tested in a three-dimensional mesoscale model. This model is designed with moist convective processes in mind, so that the radiative parameterization (solar plus thermal infrared) are interactive with the cloud field. Previous work by the authors with only an infrared scheme has demonstrated that cloud-radiation interactions are characterized by strong cloud-top cooling, leading to upper cloud-layer destabilization. The effects of including solar heating are to modulate the strength of the strong infrared cooling, thereby leading to weaker interactions between clouds, radiation, and mesoscale fields. The present study shows that even on the mesoscale and for relatively short time-spans, radiative processes in the presence of clouds are not negligible.As a further step, a simple fractional cloud cover parameterization is introduced and the model response is compared with results omitting this parameterization. 相似文献

Differences in the radiative feedback from clouds account for much of the variation in climate sensitivity amongst General
Circulation Models (GCMs). Therefore metrics of model performance which are demonstrated to be relevant to the cloud response
to climate change form an important contribution to the overall evaluation of GCMs. In this paper we demonstrate an alternative
method for assigning model data to observed cloud regimes obtained from clustering histograms of cloud amount in joint cloud
optical depth—cloud top pressure classes. The method removes some of the subjectivity that exists in previous GCM cloud clustering
studies. We apply the method to ten GCMs submitted to the Cloud Feedback Model Intercomparison Project (CFMIP), evaluate the
simulated cloud regimes and analyse the climate change response in the context of these regimes. We also propose two cloud
regime metrics, one of which is specifically targeted at assessing GCMs for the purpose of obtaining the global cloud radiative
response to climate change. Most of the global variance in the cloud radiative response between GCMs is due to low clouds,
with 47% arising from the stratocumulus regime and 18% due to the regime characterised by clouds undergoing transition from
stratocumulus to cumulus. This result is found to be dominated by two structurally similar GCMs. The shallow cumulus regime,
though widespread, has a smaller contribution and reduces the variance. For the stratocumulus and transition regimes, part
of the variance results from a large model spread in the radiative properties of the regime in the control simulation. Comparison
with observations reveals a systematic bias for both the stratocumulus and transition regimes to be overly reflective. If
this bias was corrected with all other aspects of the response unchanged, the variance in the low cloud response would reduce.
The response of some regimes with high cloud tops differ between the GCMs. These regimes are simulated too infrequently in
a few of the models. If the frequency in the control simulation were more realistic and changes within the regimes were unaltered,
the variance in the cloud radiative response from high-top clouds would increase. As a result, use of observations of the
mean present-day cloud regimes suggests that whilst improvements in the simulation of the cloud regimes would impact the climate
sensitivity, the inter-model variance may not reduce. When the cloud regime metric is calculated for the GCMs analysed here,
only one model is on average consistent with observations within their uncertainty (and even this model is not consistent
with the observations for all regimes), indicating scope for improvement in the simulation of cloud regimes.

The Grid-point Atmospheric Model of IAP LASG version 1.0 (GAMIL1.0) is used to investigate the impacts of different convective schemes on the radiative energy budget.The two convective schemes are Zhang and McFarlance (1995)/Hack (1994) (ZM) and Tiedtke (1989)/Nordeng (1994) (TN).Two simulations are performed:one with the ZM scheme (EX_ZM) and the other with the TN scheme (EX_TN).The results indicate that during the convective process,more water vapor consumption and temperature increment are found in the EX_ZM,especially in the lower model layer,its environment is therefore very dry.In contrast,there is a moister atmosphere in the EX_TN,which favors low cloud formation and large-scale condensation,and hence more low cloud fraction,higher cloud water mixing ratio,and deeper cloud extinction optical depth are simulated,reflecting more solar radiative flux in the EX_TN.This explains why the TN scheme underestimates the net shortwave radiative flux at the top of the atmosphere and at surface.In addition,convection influences longwave radiation,surface sensible and latent heat fluxes through changes in cloud emissivity and precipitation. 相似文献

The increase in the vigor of the hydrological cycle simulated in a 2 × CO2 experiment with the Canadian Climate Centre general circulation model is smaller than that obtained by other models which have similar increases in mean surface temperature. The surface energy budget, which encompasses also the moisture budget for the oceans, is analyzed. Changes in the net radiative input to and sensible heat flux from the surface act to warm it. This is balanced, at the new equilibrium, by a change in the latent heat flux which acts to cool it. Although this same general behavior is seen in other models, the increase in radiative input to the surface in the CCC GCM is smaller than in other models while the change in the sensible heat flux is of similar size. As a consequence, the latent heat flux required for balance is smaller. The comparatively small increase in the net radiative input at the surface occurs because of a decrease in the solar component. On average the decrease in solar input in the tropical region outweighs the higher latitude increase associated with the snow/ice albedo feedback. The notable tropical decrease in solar input occurs because the albedo of the clouds increase enough in this region to outweigh a small decrease in cloud amount. The increase in cloud albedo in the warmer and moister tropical atmosphere is a consequence of the parameterized cloud optical properties in the model which play an important role in the regulation of the surface energy and moisture budgets. The results demonstrate some of the consequences of the negative feedback mechanism associated with increasing cloud albedo in the model. They also suggest that the simulated change in the vigor of the hydrological cycle is not a simple function of the average increase in surface temperature but is a consequence of all of the processes in the model which control the available energy at the surface as a function of latitude. 相似文献

A one-dimensional 3rd-order turbulence closure model with size-resolved microphysics and radiative transfer has been developed for investigating aerosol and cloud interactions of the stratocumulus-topped marine boundary layer. A new method is presented for coupling between the dynamical model and the mierophysical model. This scheme allows the liquid water related correlations to be directly calculated rather than parameterized. On 21 April 2001, a marine stratocumulus was observed by the Caesar aircraft over the west Pacific Rim south of Japan during the 2001 APEX/ACE-Asia field measurements. This cloud is simulated by the model we present here. The model results show that the general features of the stratocumulus-topped marine boundary layer predicted by the model are in agreement with the measurements. A new onboard cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) counter provides not only total CCN number concentration (as the traditional CCN counters do at a certain supersaturation) but also the CCN size distribution information. Using these CCN data, model responses to different CCN initial concentrations are examined. The model results are consistent with both observations and expectations.The numerical results show that the cloud microphysieal properties are changed fundamentally by different initial CCN concentrations but the cloud liquid water content does not differ significantly. Different initial CCN loadings have large impacts on the evolution of cloud microstructure and radiation transfer while they have a modest effect on thermodynamics. Increased CCN concentration leads to significant decrease of cloud effective radius. 相似文献

The radiative feedback from clouds remains the largest source of variation in climate sensitivity amongst general circulation
models (GCMs). A cloud clustering methodology is applied to six contemporary GCMs in order to provide a detailed intercomparison
and evaluation of the simulated cloud regimes. By analysing GCMs in the context of cloud regimes, processes related to particular
cloud types are more likely to be evaluated. In this paper, the mean properties of the global cloud regimes are evaluated,
and the cloud response to climate change is analysed in the cloud-regime framework. Most of the GCMs are able to simulate
the principal cloud regimes, however none of the models analysed have a good representation of trade cumulus in the tropics.
The models also share a difficulty in simulating those regimes with cloud tops at mid-levels, with only ECHAM5 producing a
regime of tropical cumulus congestus. Optically thick, high top cloud in the extra-tropics, typically associated with the
passage of frontal systems, is simulated considerably too frequently in the ECHAM5 model. This appears to be a result of the
cloud type persisting in the model after the meteorological conditions associated with frontal systems have ceased. The simulation
of stratocumulus in the MIROC GCMs is too extensive, resulting in the tropics being too reflective. Most of the global-mean
cloud response to doubled CO2 in the GCMs is found to be a result of changes in the cloud radiative properties of the regimes, rather than changes in the
relative frequency of occurrence (RFO) of the regimes. Most of the variance in the global cloud response between the GCMs
arises from differences in the radiative response of frontal cloud in the extra-tropics and from stratocumulus cloud in the
tropics. This variance is largely the result of excessively high RFOs of specific regimes in particular GCMs. It is shown
here that evaluation and subsequent improvement in the simulation of the present-day regime properties has the potential to
reduce the variance of the global cloud response, and hence climate sensitivity, amongst GCMs. For the ensemble of models
considered in this study, the use of observations of the mean present-day cloud regimes suggests a potential reduction in
the range of climate sensitivity of almost a third.
