Zusammenfassung |
An empirical model of the vertical profiles of aerosol optical
characteristics is described. This model was developed based on data
acquired from multi-year airborne sensing of optical and microphysical
characteristics of the tropospheric aerosol over West Siberia. The main
initial characteristics for the creation of the model were measurement data
of the vertical profiles of the aerosol angular scattering coefficients in
the visible wavelength range, particle size distribution functions and mass
concentrations of black carbon (BC). The proposed model allows us to
retrieve the aerosol optical and radiative characteristics in the visible
and near-IR wavelength range, using the season, air mass type and time of
day as input parameters. The columnar single scattering albedo and asymmetry
factor of the aerosol scattering phase function, calculated using the
average vertical profiles, are in good agreement with data from the AERONET
station located in Tomsk.
For solar radiative flux calculations, this empirical model has been tested
for typical summer conditions. The available experimental database obtained
for the regional features of West Siberia and the model developed on this
basis are shown to be sufficient for performing these calculations. |
