Zusammenfassung |
A numerical evaluation of global oceanic emissions of α-pinene and
isoprene based on both "bottom-up" and "top-down" methods is presented. We
infer that the global "bottom-up" oceanic emissions of α-pinene and
isoprene are 0.013 TgC yr−1 and 0.32 TgC yr−1, respectively. By
constraining global chemistry model simulations with the shipborne
measurement of Organics over the Ocean Modifying Particles in both
Hemispheres summer cruise, we derived the global "top-down" oceanic
α-pinene source of 29.5 TgC yr−1 and isoprene source of
11.6 TgC yr−1. Both the "bottom-up" and "top-down" values are subject to large
uncertainties. The incomplete understanding of the in-situ phytoplankton
communities and their range of emission potentials significantly impact the
estimated global "bottom-up" oceanic emissions, while the estimated total
amounts of the global "top-down" oceanic sources can be influenced by
emission parameterizations, model and input data spatial resolutions,
boundary layer mixing processes, and the treatments of chemical reactions.
The global oceanic α-pinene source and its impact on organic aerosol
formation is significant based on "top-down" method, but is negligible based
on "bottom-up" approach. Our research highlights the importance of carrying
out further research (especially measurements) to resolve the large offset
in the derived oceanic organic emission based on two different approaches. |
