摘要

We provide satellite-based evidence of the spectral dependence of absorptionin biomass burning aerosols over South America using near-UV measurementsmade by the Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) during 2005–2007. In thecurrent near-UV OMI aerosol algorithm (OMAERUV), it is implicitly assumedthat the only absorbing component in carbonaceous aerosols is black carbonwhose imaginary component of the refractive index is wavelength independent.With this assumption, OMI-derived aerosol optical depth (AOD) is found to besignificantly over-estimated compared to that of AERONET at several sitesduring intense biomass burning events (August-September). Other well-knownsources of error affecting the near-UV method of aerosol retrieval do notexplain the large observed AOD discrepancies between the satellite and theground-based observations. A number of studies have revealed strong spectraldependence in carbonaceous aerosol absorption in the near-UV regionsuggesting the presence of organic carbon in biomass burning generatedaerosols. A sensitivity analysis examining the importance of accounting forthe presence of wavelength-dependent aerosol absorption in carbonaceousparticles in satellite-based remote sensing was carried out in this work.The results convincingly show that the inclusion of spectrally-dependentaerosol absorption in the radiative transfer calculations leads to a moreaccurate characterization of the atmospheric load of carbonaceous aerosols.The use of a new set of aerosol models assuming wavelength-dependent aerosolabsorption in the near-UV region (Absorption Angstrom Exponentλ−2.5 to −3.0) improved the OMAERUV retrieval results by significantlyreducing the AOD bias observed when gray aerosols were assumed. In addition,the new retrieval of single-scattering albedo is in better agreement withthose of AERONET within the uncertainties (ΔSSA = ±0.03). Thenew colored carbonaceous aerosol model was also found to reproduce theground-based AOD observations over the biomass burning region of centralAfrica and northern India. Together with demonstrating a significantimprovement in the retrieval of aerosol properties from OMI, the presentstudy highlights the greater sensitivity of the near-UV measurements to thevarying spectral aerosol absorption. This capability can be explored furtherfor the use in the identification of the black carbon and organics in thebiomass burning aerosols.
