摘要

The impact of cloud cover and tropospheric aerosols on surface levels of UV-B irradiance are investigated using field measurements at two sites in western North Carolina: Mt. Mitchell (2038 m msl) State Park and Black Mountain (951 m msl). The sites are similarly equipped with broadband and spectral radiation-sensing and aerosol sampling instruments. The aerosol scattering coefficient at 530 nm, the aerosol optical depth and diffuse-direct irradiance ratio at 500 nm was found to vary with air mass type (polluted, marine, and continental). Surface measurements of total and diffuse UV irradiance at 7 narrowband wavelength channels of the Ultraviolet Multi-Filter Rotating Shadowband Radiometer (UVMFR) are used to determine the total column ozone and aerosol optical depth. The retrieved total column ozone displayed consistent agreement with the Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) measurements. Aerosol optical depth at 317, 325, 332, and 368 nm was derived for a six-month period of 1999. The seasonal pattern is influenced by the persistent summertime haze that occurs in the region. The relative strengths of ozone, Rayleigh scattering and aerosol optical depths are found to vary with wavelength. Ozone absorption is the dominant component shaping the total optical depths at shorter wavelength, accounting for nearly 70% of the optical depth at 300 nm, whereas aerosol and Rayleigh attenuation are the main contributors at longer wavelengths. The aerosol optical parameters (single scatter albedo, asymmetry parameter and complex index of refraction) in the UV region retrieved by an iterative modeling procedure applied to the broadband and spectral UV-B measurements indicate that substantial attenuation by aerosol absorption can occur, larger than those typically included in UV modeling studies. The retrieved aerosol optical parameters are used as input in a radiative transfer model to investigate the effect of their realistic values on the calculation of the UV Index (UVI) forecasted by the National Weather Service. The percentage change in calculated surface erythemallyweighted UV (as compared to calculated using the standard UVI aerosol inputs) can range from a 4% increase to a nearly 50% decrease, dependent upon the aerosol optical depth and amount of absorption by aerosols. Based on our measurements, it was found that during the summertime the UV Index can deviate by up to -5 index units from the forecast if the standard aerosol inputs are used.
