NCAR Chemical forecasts2012-09-25 Louisa Emmons Mijeong Park
Lightning NO 1. Anticyclone Transport • … Anthro 150 hPa Strat Ozone 150 hPa
2. Pollution over Northern Bay of Bengal, Nepal • Weak transport of pollution from India over BoB • Pollution over Nepal mainly from India • Anthro emissions
Lightning NO 3. Outflow from cumulus, cloud processing • Low values of soluble tracer indicate extensive cloud processing of air at 200 hPa • Significant biogenic tracers aloft over Borneo to west of Sumatra Anthro, 25-day tracer biogenic, 5-day tracer Anthro, 25-day soluble tracer
Isoprene emissions tracer 850 hPa 4. Tropospheric chemistry source characterization • India anthro & biogenic emissions could be sampled over Bay of B. • SE Asia emissions complicated by typhoons Anthrotracer 850 hPa Fire tracer 850 hPa
5. Ship track study • N. of Sumatra
6. TTL Cirrus heating rates • Looking for cirrus over clear water
7. Cirrus microphysics • Looking for extensive cirrus coverage
8. Smoke radiative heating rates13. Biomass burning • Burning on Borneo and Sumatra • Small amount convected above Sumatra CO Biomass Burning 150 mb CO Biomass Burning 850 mb
Strat Ozone 150 mb 10. Mixing into TTL • Weak strat ozone over Malaysia CO Anthro 150 mb
