Climate and Water Cycle (Prof. Christoph Sch¤r) The Atmospheric Chemistry Group is involved in three types of activities Field measurements of NOx, Ozone, CO and VOCs are performed in the boundary layer as well as in the tropopause region. In addition, long term ozone trends are determined from ground based and balloon borne measurements. Laboratory experiments are carried out to study the microphysics and properties of aerosols as well as the formation mechanisms of cloud particles. In addition Rutherford backscattering is used to determine uptake of volatile and non-volatile species in ice and liquids. Modelling studies are concerned with the thermodynamics and uptake/chemical kinetics of aerosols, simulation of the physical chemistry in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere, modelling of cloud formation in close connection to field observations, as well as statistical interpretation of long term ozone trends.

Atmospheric Chemistry Program
Research into regional and continental chemistry and the fate of tropospheric air pollutants, extracontinental and global chemistry and the fate of tropospheric air pollutants, and aerosol genesis.
http://gonzalo.er.anl.gov/ACP/

Extractions: Security and Privacy Notice Much of the science that had been planned for the Atmospheric Chemistry Program (ACP) will, in the future, be conducted under the Department of Energy's Atmospheric Science Program http://www.asp.bnl.gov . Beginning in Fiscal Year 2005, research will focus on radiative forcing of climate change by atmospheric aerosols. Please refer to the ASP web site for more information. The overall objective of the ACP is to provide DOE with advanced information on the atmospheric environment that is required for long-range energy planning. The research is carried out primarily at four DOE laboratories and approximately twelve universities and non-DOE labs. The thrusts of this research are on regional and continental chemistry and fate of tropospheric air pollutants, extracontinental and global chemistry and fate of tropospheric air pollutants, and aerosol genesis. Laboratory studies emphasize rate and equilibrium processes. Field studies are conducted with aircraft and surface measurements on reaction chemistry, advective influences on the chemical composition of chemistry, and air-surface exchange processes. Modeling efforts address both chemistry and dynamics on regional and global scales. The DOE Research Aircraft Facility What it Takes to Carry Out a Field Campaign (PDF)

Extractions: For example, stable isotopes have long served as an invaluable tool in geochemical studies of the solid and liquid reservoirs of the earth. As outlined more fully below, stable isotopes also have the potential to provide critical new insights into a variety of issues in atmospheric science, yet have been only rarely pursued. In part this arises because the measurements are difficult, requiring precisions and accuracies in the part per ten thousand range, but also because the science that can be pursued with stable isotopic studies of atmospheric trace gases is only now becoming clear. We have begun a new laboratory program that utilizes stable isotopes to examine the fate of important biogenic trace gases such as nitrous oxide, and are developing new in situ measurement approaches for such species using infrared laser induced fluorescence. With Paul Wennberg's group we are also beginning a new effort in Br/BrO detection in the vacuum ultraviolet, as described below. Nitrous oxide exists in the Earth's atmosphere at a current concentration of approximately 310 ppbv and is increasing at an annual rate of about 0.25-0.31%. Despite being present in only trace amounts, nitrous oxide exerts a large influence on the terrestrial climate in two major ways: (1) It is one of the main greenhouse gases because of its long atmospheric lifetime (~100-150 years) and its large radiative forcing capabilities (nearly 200 times that of carbon dioxide), and (2) It is the principal source of NO

Extractions: > home Focus Areas Affiliates directory education ... outreach Theoretical studies of the greenhouse effect indicate that a rise in the level of the greenhouse gases will tend not only to warm the Earth's surface and the lower atmosphere but also to cool the stratosphere. This cooling of the stratosphere is expected to affect the ozone layer by decreasing ozone destruction in equatorial regions and increasing ozone destruction in polar regions. These effects would be added to the increased ozone destruction expected due to rising chlorofluorocarbon concentrations. The stratospheric cooling by the greenhouse gases combined with these ozone layer changes will in turn affect the circulation at this level and conceivably at lower levels also. Indeed, there is already some evidence that Antarctic ozone changes have been influencing the Southern Hemisphere springtime climate by delaying the final warming. CGCS researchers are extensively involved in laboratory and theoretical studies to address two general interrelated goals: to understand quantitatively the elementary chemical steps at the molecular level that enable reliable extrapolations to atmospheric conditions; and to understand the interrelationship between chemical and atmospheric processes in order to elucidate the relevant chemical reactions that affect the atmosphere on regional and global scales. Following are two areas of interest to CGCS researchers.

Extractions: Home Publications Personnel Models ... SEARCH The MIT Integrated Global System Model: Climate Component To represent the dynamics of climate within the MIT Framework , an initial task was to develop a computationally efficient model capable not only of simulating reasonably well the present climate but also of reproducing the climate change patterns predicted with 3D GCMs. The current MIT climate model couples a two-dimensional (2D) land- and ocean-resolving (LO) statistical-dynamical model of the atmosphere to a 3D ocean general circulation model (GCM). An atmospheric chemistry model and the 2D-LO climate model are coupled to run interactively and simultaneously, to provide predictions of the atmospheric concentration of radiatively and chemically important trace species. Details of the individual model components are provided in several publications The coupled climate and chemistry model depicted in the schematic is two-dimensional (latitude-altitude) with separate predictions over land and ocean at each latitude. Longitudinal variations are obtained from a combination of observed climate data and selected transient runs of three-dimensional climate models. The MIT climate model, with its 2D atmosphere/3D ocean, is capable of reproducing many characteristics of the current longitudinally-averaged climate, and its behavior and predictions are similar to those of more complex, fully 3D GCMs. Most significantly, it is twenty times faster than 3D models with similar latitudinal and vertical resolutions. Utilizing the simplified (2D atmosphere/3D ocean) climate model structure has allowed the Program to perform multiple model runs which provides a facile investigation of feedbacks between model components. The simplified climate component enables extensive testing of these phenomena, which would not be practical in a calculation incorporating a 3D chemistry/climate model. A 100-year integration of the latest version of the climate model requires 10 hours on a single 500 MHz CPU.

Laser spectroscopy and computational chemistry for investigations of atmospheric chemistry site by Ted Dibble.
http://web.syr.edu/~tsdibble/dibble.html

Extractions: Research People Current Projects ... Links to other Sites The Dibble group uses lasers and high-end computers as tools to address questions such as: what are the degradation pathways of organic compounds in the polluted atmosphere? To what extent do particular compounds contribute to the formation of ozone, other air toxics, and particulates? (Answers to these questions are missing for most of the key compounds larger than butane!) The experimental work in Dr. Dibble's laboratory employs pulsed, tunable dye lasers to probe for stable and transient species. Both reaction kinetics and the spectroscopy of new species can be studied using two highly sensitive techniques: laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) and (soon) cavity ringdown spectroscopy . The computational work uses commercially available quantum chemistry programs to carry out ab initio and density functional calculations. These methods are used to map out thermochemical kinetics and to explore and interpret the spectroscopy of as-yet uncharacterized species. See the article about our computational work in Access , the magazine of the National Compuational Science Alliance.

Not only government, but private industry, has a vested interest in improving our knowledge of these processes. Much of the work in atmospheric chemistry at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory has focused on the fate of energy-related pollutants (e.g., ozone, nitrogen oxides, sulfur) in the lower part of the atmosphere, beginning with their emission into the atmosphere and continuing to their deposition at the Earth's surface. Examples of past work include studies of radionuclide deposition, the long-range transport of sulfur plumes, mechanisms by which sulfate aerosol enters precipitation, homogeneous nucleation mechanisms for the formation of natural aerosols, and the production of ozone from NO x and hydrocarbons. Almost all of our work has involved a combination of field studies using state-of-the-art airborne instrumentation and computer modeling.

Extractions: Atmospheric Chemistry Atmospheric chemistry influences human health, climate, food production and, through its impact on visibility, our view of the world. Chemicals in the air affect us with each breath we take. Suspended particulates that are both directly emitted into the atmosphere or form from chemical reactions in it affect the amount of solar energy reaching the earth's surface. Not only government, but private industry, has a vested interest in improving our knowledge of these processes and how to predict them. Much of the work in atmospheric chemistry at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory has focused on the fate of energy-related pollutants, e.g., ozone, nitrogen oxides, sulfur, in the lower part of the atmosphere, beginning with their emission into the atmosphere and continuing to their deposition at the Earth's surface. Examples of past work include studies of radionuclide dispersion and deposition, the long-range transport of sulfur oxides, mechanisms governing the formation of "acid rain", nucleation of atmospheric aerosols, and the production of ozone from NOx and hydrocarbons. Almost all of these studies have involved a combination of field studies, laboratory experiments, and computer modeling.
