Introduction

• Radiative forcing by tropospheric aerosols depends on their optical properties like optical thickness, single scattering albedo and phase function.

• Basic idea:

• Spectral resolved VIS and NIR measurements of the diffuse sunlight at various directions in the suns principal plane with inclusion of polarization.

• Comparison of measurements and radiative transfer simulations

• Comparison allows to draw conclusions on:

• the size distribution,

• the refractive index

• and vertical distribution of aerosols.

• From the knowledge of the size distribution and the refractive index the single scattering albedo and the phase function can be derived.

Mie-Simulations (1/4)

• First mie-calculations have been performed with the following standard input parameters:• wavelength 675 nm• real and imaginary part of the refraction index of 1.5 and 0.006• log normal size distribution with a sigma of 1.8• mode radius of 0.1 microns

• To analyse how sensitiv the mie calculations are to changes of one of these parameters, each parameter was changed in a certain range, while the rest of the parameters remaind constant.

• The mie simulations serve as input for the DAK-simulations

DAK-Simulations (1/5)

• The DAK-simulations have been performed for multiple scattering and the following standard input parameters:

• a surface albedo of 0.15

• an optical thickness of 0.39

• a standard midlatitude atmospheric profile• and the mie-aerosol (output of the mie-simulations) was put in the

first layer (first one km) • while varying the optical thickness the standard mie aerosol was used.

OUTLOOK…

• Investigate the effect of different size distributions (e.g bimodal)• Implementation of the k-distribution in DAK (O2A-Band)• First sensitivity studies of radiance and polarization to aerosols in the

absorbtion bands (O2A-Band)• Sensitivity to aerosol optical thickness• Sensitivity to aerosol altitude• Sensitivity to aerosol size parameters

• Size distribution• Effective radius• Effective variance

• Sensitivity to aerosol refractive index• Surface albedo effects

• Final aim: an retrieval algorithm for aerosol optical properties from polarization measurements.
