  • Tropical and Boreal Forest – Atmosphere Interactions : A Review
  • 2022
  • Ingår i: Tellus. Series B, Chemical and physical meteorology. - : Stockholm University Press. - 0280-6509 .- 1600-0889. ; 74:1, s. 24-163

    • This review presents how the boreal and the tropical forests affect the atmosphere, its chemical composition, its function, and further how that affects the climate and, in return, the ecosystems through feedback processes. Observations from key tower sites standing out due to their long-term comprehensive observations: The Amazon Tall Tower Observatory in Central Amazonia, the Zotino Tall Tower Observatory in Siberia, and the Station to Measure Ecosystem-Atmosphere Relations at Hyytiäla in Finland. The review is complemented by short-term observations from networks and large experiments.The review discusses atmospheric chemistry observations, aerosol formation and processing, physiochemical aerosol, and cloud condensation nuclei properties and finds surprising similarities and important differences in the two ecosystems. The aerosol concentrations and chemistry are similar, particularly concerning the main chemical components, both dominated by an organic fraction, while the boreal ecosystem has generally higher concentrations of inorganics, due to higher influence of long-range transported air pollution. The emissions of biogenic volatile organic compounds are dominated by isoprene and monoterpene in the tropical and boreal regions, respectively, being the main precursors of the organic aerosol fraction.Observations and modeling studies show that climate change and deforestation affect the ecosystems such that the carbon and hydrological cycles in Amazonia are changing to carbon neutrality and affect precipitation downwind. In Africa, the tropical forests are so far maintaining their carbon sink.It is urgent to better understand the interaction between these major ecosystems, the atmosphere, and climate, which calls for more observation sites, providing long-term data on water, carbon, and other biogeochemical cycles. This is essential in finding a sustainable balance between forest preservation and reforestation versus a potential increase in food production and biofuels, which are critical in maintaining ecosystem services and global climate stability. Reducing global warming and deforestation is vital for tropical forests.

  • Transport and chemistry of isoprene and its oxidation products in deep convective clouds
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Tellus. Series B, Chemical and physical meteorology. - : Stockholm University Press. - 0280-6509 .- 1600-0889. ; 73:1, s. 1-21
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Deep convective clouds can transport trace gases from the planetary boundary layer into the upper troposphere where subsequent chemistry may impact aerosol particle formation and growth. In this modelling study, we investigate processes that affect isoprene and its oxidation products injected into the upper troposphere by an isolated deep convective cloud in the Amazon. We run a photochemical box model with coupled cloud microphysics along hundreds of individual air parcel trajectories sampled from a cloud-resolving model simulation of a convective event. The box model simulates gas-phase chemical reactions, gas scavenging by liquid and ice hydrometeors, and turbulent dilution inside a deep convective cloud. The results illustrate the potential importance of gas uptake to anvil ice in regulating the intensity of the isoprene oxidation and associated low volatility organic vapour concentrations in the outflow. Isoprene transport and fate also depends on the abundance of lightning-generated nitrogen oxide radicals (NOx = NO + NO2). If gas uptake on ice is efficient and lightning activity is low, around 30% of the boundary layer isoprene will survive to the cloud outflow after approximately one hour of transport, while all the low volatile oxidation products will be scavenged by the cloud hydrometeors. If lightning NOx is abundant and gas uptake by ice is inefficient, then all isoprene will be oxidised during transport or in the immediate outflow region, while several low volatility isoprene oxidation products will have elevated concentrations in the cloud outflow. Reducing uncertainties associated with the uptake of vapours on ice hydrometeors, especially HO2 and oxygenated organics, is essential to improve predictions of isoprene and its oxidation products in deep convective outflows and their potential contribution to new particle formation and growth.

  • Transport of Mineral Dust Into the Arctic in Two Reanalysis Datasets of Atmospheric Composition
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: Tellus. Series B, Chemical and physical meteorology. - 0280-6509 .- 1600-0889. ; 75:1, s. 13-32
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Two three-dimensional reanalysis datasets of atmospheric composition, the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service reanalysis (CAMSRA) and the Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis for Research and Applications, version 2 (MERRA-2), are analyzed for the years 2003-2018 with respect to dust transport into the Arctic. The reanalyses agree on that the largest mass transport of dust into the Arctic occurs across western Russia during spring and early summer, but substantial transport events occasionally also occur across other geographical areas during all seasons. In many aspects, however, the reanalyses show considerable differences: the mass transport in MERRA-2 is substantially larger, more spread out, and occurs at higher altitudes than in CAMSRA, while the transport in CAMSRA is to a higher degree focused to well-defined events in space and time; the integrated mass transport of the 10 most intense 36-hour dust events in CAMSRA constitutes 6 % of the total integrated dust transport 2003-2018, whereas the corresponding value for MERRA-2 is only 1 %.Furthermore, we compare the reanalyses with surface measurements of dust in the Arctic and dust extinction retrievals from the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar with Orthogonal Polarization (CALIOP) satellite data. This comparison indicates that CAMSRA underestimates the dust transport into the Arctic and that MERRA-2 likely overestimates it. The discrepancy between CAMSRA and MERRA-2 can partially be explained by the assimilation process where too little dust is assimilated in CAMSRA while in MERRA-2, the assimilation process increases the dust concentration in remote areas. Despite the profound differences between the reanalyses regarding dust transport into the Arctic, this study still brings new insights into the spatio-temporal distribution of the transport. We estimate the annual dust transport into the Arctic to be within the range 1.5-31 Tg, where the comparison with observations indicates that the lower end of the interval is less likely.

    • Climate change is not only about changes in means of climatic variables such as temperature, precipitation and wind, but also their extreme values which are of critical importance to human society and ecosystems. To inspire the Swedish climate research community and to promote assessments of international research on past and future changes in extreme weather events against the global climate change background, the Earth Science Class of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences organized a workshop entitled 'Extreme weather events in a warming world' in 2019. This article summarizes and synthesizes the key points from the presentations and discussions of the workshop on changes in floods, droughts, heat waves, as well as on tropical cyclones and extratropical storms. In addition to reviewing past achievements in these research fields and identifying research gaps with a focus on Sweden, future challenges and opportunities for the Swedish climate research community are highlighted.

  • Exploring Satellite-Derived Relationships between Cloud Droplet Number Concentration and Liquid Water Path Using a Large-Domain Large-Eddy Simulation
  • 2022
  • Ingår i: Tellus. Series B, Chemical and physical meteorology. - : Stockholm University Press. - 0280-6509 .- 1600-0889. ; 74:1, s. 176-188
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Important aspects of the adjustments to aerosol-cloud interactions can be examined using the relationship between cloud droplet number concentration (Nd) and liquid water path (LWP). Specifically, this relation can constrain the role of aerosols in leading to thicker or thinner clouds in response to adjustment mechanisms. This study investigates the satellite retrieved relationship between Nd and LWP for a selected case of mid-latitude continental clouds using high-resolution Large-eddy simulations (LES) over a large domain in weather prediction mode. Since the satellite retrieval uses the adiabatic assumption to derive the Nd, we have also considered adiabatic Nd (NAd) from the LES model for comparison. The joint histogram analysis shows that the NAd-LWP relationship in the LES model and the satellite is in approximate agreement. In both cases, the peak conditional probability (CP) is confined to lower NAd and LWP; the corresponding mean LWP (LWP) shows a weak relation with NAd. The CP shows a larger spread at higher NAd (>50 cm–3), and the LWP increases non-monotonically with increasing NAd in both cases. Nevertheless, both lack the negative NAd-LWP relationship at higher NAd, the entrainment effect on cloud droplets. In contrast, the model simulated Nd-LWP clearly illustrates a much more nonlinear (an increase in LWP with increasing Nd and a decrease in LWP at higher Nd) relationship, which clearly depicts the cloud lifetime and the entrainment effect. Additionally, our analysis demonstrates a regime dependency (marine and continental) in the NAd-LWP relation from the satellite retrievals. Comparing local vs large-scale statistics from satellite data shows that continental clouds exhibit only a weak nonlinear NAd-LWP relationship. Hence a regime-based Nd-LWP analysis is even more relevant when it comes to warm continental clouds and their comparison to satellite retrievals.

  • Absorbing aerosols over Asia – an inter-model and model-observation comparison study using CAM5.3-Oslo
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Tellus. Series B, Chemical and physical meteorology. - : Stockholm University Press. - 0280-6509 .- 1600-0889. ; 73:1, s. 1-25

    • Aerosol absorption constitutes a significant component of the total radiative effect of aerosols, and hence its representation in general circulation models is crucial to radiative forcing estimates. We use here multiple observations to evaluate the performance of CAM5.3-Oslo with respect to its aerosol representation. CAM5.3-Oslo is the atmospheric component of the earth system model NorESM1.2 and shows on average an underestimation of aerosol absorption in the focus region over East and South Asia and a strong aerosol absorption overestimation in desert and arid regions compared to observations and other AeroCom phase III models. We explore the reasons of the model spread and find that it is related to the column burden and residence time of absorbing aerosols, in particular black carbon and dust. We conduct further sensitivity simulations with CAM5.3-Oslo to identify processes which are most important for modelled aerosol absorption. The sensitivity experiments target aerosol optical properties, and contrast their impact with effects from changes in emissions and deposition processes, and the driving meteorology. An improved agreement with observations was found with the use of a refined emission data set, transient emissions and assimilation of meteorological observations. Changes in optical properties of absorbing aerosols can also reduce the under- and overestimation of aerosol absorption in the model. However, changes in aerosol absorption strength between the sensitivity experiments are small compared to the inter-model spread among the AeroCom phase III models.

  • Physical and chemical properties of aerosol particles and cloud residuals on Mt. angstrom reskutan in Central Sweden during summer 2014
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: Tellus. Series B, Chemical and physical meteorology. - : Stockholm University Press. - 0280-6509 .- 1600-0889. ; 72:1

    • The size distribution, volatility and hygroscopicity of ambient aerosols and cloud residuals were measured with a differential mobility particle sizer (DMPS) and a volatility-hygroscopicity tandem differential mobility analyser (VHTDMA) coupled to a counterflow virtual impactor (CVI) inlet during the Cloud and Aerosol Experiment at Are (CAEsAR) campaign at Mt. Areskutan during summer 2014. The chemical composition of particulate matter (PM) and cloud water were analysed offline using thermo-optical OC/EC analysis and ion chromatography. The importance of aerosol particle size for cloud droplet activation and subsequent particle scavenging was clearly visible in the measured size distributions. Cloud residuals were shifted towards larger sizes compared to ambient aerosol, and the cloud events were followed by a size distribution dominated by smaller particles. Organics dominated both PM (62% organic mass fraction) and cloud water (63% organic mass fraction) composition. The volatility and hygroscopicity of the ambient aerosols were representative of homogeneous aged aerosol with contributions from biogenic secondary organics, with median volume fraction remaining (VFR) of 0.04-0.05, and median hygroscopicity parameter kappa of 0.16-0.24 for 100-300 nm particles. The corresponding VFR and kappa for the cloud residuals were 0.03-0.04 and 0.18-0.20. The chemical composition, hygroscopicity and volatility measurements thus showed no major differences between the ambient aerosol particles and cloud residuals. The VFR and kappa values predicted based on the chemical composition measurements agreed well with the VHTDMA measurements, indicating the bulk chemical composition to be a reasonable approximation throughout the size distribution. There were indications, however, of some more subtle changes in time scales not achievable by the offline chemical analysis applied here. Further, online observations of aerosol and cloud residual chemical composition are therefore warranted.

  • Changes in aerosol size distributions over the Indian Ocean during different meteorological conditions
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: Tellus. Series B, Chemical and physical meteorology. - : Stockholm University Press. - 0280-6509 .- 1600-0889. ; 72:1

    • Aerosol emissions in South Asia are large. The emitted aerosols can travel significant distances and, during the Asian southwest monsoon especially, are prone to modification through cloud processing and wet scavenging while being transported. The scale of emissions and transport means that the global climate impact of these aerosols are sensitive to modification en route, but the process-level understanding is still largely lacking. In this study, we analyse long-term aerosol data measured at an observatory established in Hanimaadhoo, Republic of Maldives, to investigate the long-term properties of aerosols over the Indian Ocean as well as to understand the effect of precipitation on the aerosol particle size distribution during long-range transport. The observatory location is ideal because it is a receptor site with little local influence, and, depending on the season, receives either polluted air masses coming from the Indian subcontinent or clean marine air masses from the Indian Ocean. We analysed the sub-micron particle number size distribution measured during the years 2004-2008, and 2014-2017, and this is the first inter-seasonal long-term study of the sub-micron aerosol features in the region. The aerosol origin and its relative exposure to wet scavenging during long-range transport were analysed using back-trajectory analysis from HYSPLIT. By comparing aerosol measurements to precipitation along its transport, this study shows that there is a substantial change in particle number size distributions and concentrations depending on the amount of rainfall during transport. During the southwest monsoon season, the aerosol size distribution was notably bimodal and total particle concentrations clearly reduced in comparison with the prevailing aerosol size distribution during the northeast monsoon season. Precipitation during transport usually corresponded with a greater reduction in accumulation mode concentrations than for smaller sizes, and the shape of the median size distribution showed a clear dependence on the trajectory origin and route taken.

  • Greenhouse gas observation network design for Africa
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: Tellus. Series B: Chemical and Physical Meteorology. - : Stockholm University Press. - 1600-0889 .- 0280-6509. ; 72:1, s. 1-30
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • An optimal network design was carried out to prioritise the installation or refurbishment of greenhouse gas (GHG) monitoring stations around Africa. The network was optimised to reduce the uncertainty in emissions across three of the most important GHGs: CO2, CH4, and N2O. Optimal networks were derived using incremental optimisation of the percentage uncertainty reduction achieved by a Gaussian Bayesian atmospheric inversion. The solution for CO2 was driven by seasonality in net primary productivity. The solution for N2O was driven by activity in a small number of soil flux hotspots. The optimal solution for CH4 was consistent over different seasons. All solutions for CO2 and N2O placed sites in central Africa at places such as Kisangani, Kinshasa and Bunia (Democratic Republic of Congo), Dundo and Lubango (Angola), Zoétélé (Cameroon), Am Timan (Chad), and En Nahud (Sudan). Many of these sites appeared in the CH4 solutions, but with a few sites in southern Africa as well, such as Amersfoort (South Africa). The multi-species optimal network design solutions tended to have sites more evenly spread-out, but concentrated the placement of new tall-tower stations in Africa between 10ºN and 25ºS. The uncertainty reduction achieved by the multi-species network of twelve stations reached 47.8% for CO2, 34.3% for CH4, and 32.5% for N2O. The gains in uncertainty reduction diminished as stations were added to the solution, with an expected maximum of less than 60%. A reduction in the absolute uncertainty in African GHG emissions requires these additional measurement stations, as well as additional constraint from an integrated GHG observatory and a reduction in uncertainty in the prior biogenic fluxes in tropical Africa.

  • Using correlations between observed equivalent black carbon and aerosol size distribution to derive size resolved BC mass concentration : a method applied on long-term observations performed at Zeppelin station, Ny-Ålesund, Svalbard
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Tellus. Series B, Chemical and physical meteorology. - : Stockholm University Press. - 0280-6509 .- 1600-0889. ; 73:1, s. 1-17
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The aim of this study was to explore particle size dependent properties by combining long-term observations of equivalent black carbon (eBC) and number size distributions to investigate their correlation as function of particle size. The work was conducted in two main parts. The first part consisted of a short laboratory experiment to compare observed total particle light absorption (σabs) with that observed according to particle size by using a combination of a Differential Mobility Analyzer (DMA) and a Particle Soot Absorption Photometer (PSAP). The laboratory study confirmed strong similarities between the observed and derived σabs. In the second part the statistical approach using correlation between the σabs and the dN of each bin of the number size distribution was tested on long-term data ranging from 2002 to 2010 observed at Zeppelin station, Ny-Ålesund Svalbard. The data was clustered according to the number size distribution and grouped in four major categories: Washout, Nucleation, Intermediate and Polluted. Each category presented different features with respect to the derived eBC mass distributions, the Intermediate category showed similarities to the few available Single Particle Soot Photometer (SP2) observations in the Arctic. Overall, the statistical distribution of eBC, according to particle size, presented a larger dynamical range in the location of the mode(s). To check for consistency, the eBC mass distributions were transformed into number based eBC size distribution and compared to the observed total number size distribution. Whereas the Washout, Nucleation and Intermediate categories presented plausible number distributions, the Polluted category displayed a mode at small sizes (about 50 nm) that was significantly exaggerated.
