摘要

The first part of the thesis assesses the aerosol direct radiative effect (ADRE) with a focus on ground-based AERONET and satellite MODIS measurements. The AERONET aerosol climatology is used, in conjunction with surface albedo and cloud products from MODIS, to calculate the ADRE and its normalized form (NADRE) for distinct aerosol regimes. The NADRE is defined as the ADRE normalized by optical depth at 550 nm and is mainly determined by internal aerosol optical properties and geographical parameters. These terms are evaluated for cloud-free and cloudy conditions and for all-mode and fine-mode aerosols. Because of stronger absorption (smaller single-scattering albedo) by the smoke over South Africa, the average NADRE over South America is ∼35% larger at the TOA but ∼38% smaller at the surface than that over South Africa. As the surface albedo varies from ∼0.1 to ∼0.35, it is observed that the dust NADRE ranges from -44 to -17 Wm-2tau-1 at the TOA and from -80 to -48 Wm-2tau -1 at the surface over the Saharan deserts, Arabian Peninsula, and their surrounding oceans. We find that the NADRE of fine-mode aerosol is larger at the TOA but smaller at the surface in comparison to that of all-mode aerosol because of its larger single-scattering albedo and smaller asymmetry factor. Cloudy-sky ADRE is usually not negligible for the observed cloud optical thickness but the TOA ADRE with clouds is sensitive to the relative location of aerosols and cloud layer. The high-resolution MODIS land surface albedo is applied, together with aerosol optical properties from an integrated MODIS retrieval and a chemical transport model simulation, to study the clear-sky ADRE over North Africa and the Arabian Peninsula for summer 2001, where surface is highly reflective with considerable spatial variability but poorly described by modeling. TOA ADRE shows the high spatial variability with close similarity to that of surface albedo. The albedos derived from the Common Land Model changes the regionally averaged positive TOA ADRE (3 ∼ 4 Wm-2) based on MODIS albedo to negative (∼ -2 Wm-2).; The second part of the thesis is to develop a 2-D conceptual model for a climatological convective boundary layer over land as a persistent and distinct component in climate models, where the convective-scale motion is explicitly described by fluid dynamics and thermodynamics while the smaller scale effect is parameterized for a neutral stratification. Our conceptual model reasonably reproduces essential statistics of a convective boundary layer in comparison to large eddy simulations. The major difference is that our model produces a better organized and more constrained spatial distribution with coherent convective cells. The simulations for a climatological convective boundary layer are conducted for a prescribed constant and homogenous surface heat flux and a specified cooling term representing the background large scale thermal balance. The results show: the 2-D coherent structures of convective cells with horizontal and vertical characteristic scales comparable with PBL height; downward maximum velocities being 70-80% of the accompanying upward maxima; vertical profiles of a constant potential temperature and linear decreasing heat fluxes; a nearly proportional increase in the mixed-layer temperature and square-root increase in the velocity magnitude with increasing surface heat flux.
