西北地区气溶胶光学特性及辐射影响

利用SACOL（兰州大学半干旱气候与环境观测站）2006~2012年AERONET（全球气溶胶自动监测网）level 2.0和太阳短波辐射计资料,分析了中国西北地区气溶胶的光学特性与辐射影响。利用辐射传输模式SBDART（平面平行大气辐射传输模式）检验TOA（大气层顶）处辐射强迫为正的原因。BOA（地表）、TOA、Atmosphere（大气）的辐射强迫年均值分别是-59.43 W m-2、-17.03 W m-2、42.40 W m-2,AOD（光学厚度,550 nm）年均值0.37,α（波段的波长指数,440~675 nm）年均值0.91,变化趋势与AOD位相相反,当AOD为0.3~2.2时,α很小（0.0~0.2）,表明粒子尺度很大。SSA（单次散射反照率,675 nm）年均值0.93,g（不对称因子,675 nm）年均值0.68,复折射指数（675 nm）实部年均值1.48,虚部0.007。复折射指数实部的年变化趋势与AOD一致,虚部与AOD反位相,所以西北地区多为粗模态散射性气溶胶。气溶胶对大气的加热率最大值出现在0~2 km,随高度递减。冬、夏半年在地表加热率分别是2.6 K d-1和0.6 K d-1;季节变化中,冬季、秋季、春季和夏季,在地表的加热率依次是2.5 K d-1、1.4 K d-1、1.2 K d-1和0.2 K d-1,主要因为秋季气溶胶的吸收性大于春季。地表反照率和SSA对TOA正辐射强迫贡献率分别是22.5%和77.5%。

The climatological characteristics of photosynthetically active radiation in arid and semi-arid regions of China

Photosynthetically active radiation (Q _p ) is a key variable in models of net primary productivity and carbon cycle modelling. The relationship between broadband global solar radiation (R _s) and Q _p is investigated using 6?years of radiation data collected at 9 sites in arid and semi-arid regions of China. The dependence of Q _p /R _S on aerosol optical depth (AOD) and water vapour content are also discussed. A simple and efficient all-weather empirically derived model is developed to estimate Q _p from R _s. The annual average daily Q _p in arid and semi-arid areas is 29.9?±?11.7 and 27.3?±?10.1?mol?m^-2 d^-1, respectively. The highest value (31.9?±?11.3?mol?m^-2 d^-1) appears at Linze in the arid area. The lowest value (24.3?±?9.7?mol?m^-2 d^-1) appears at Ansai in the semi-arid area. The results show that the monthly variation of the Q _p /R _s ratio ranges from 1.69?±?0.19?mol?MJ^-1 in Aksu to 1.91?±?0.08?mol?MJ^-1 in Fukang. There is a small decreasing trend of the ratio of Q _p to R _s (PAR fraction) in arid and semi-arid regions because of the recent increase in fine aerosols. A simple and efficient empirically model suit for all-weather condition was developed to estimate Q _p from R _s. The slope a and intercept b of the regression line between estimated and measured values is close to 1 and zero, respectively. The application of the model to data collected from different locations also results in reasonable estimates of Q _p .     

锡林浩特草原CO2通量特征及其影响因素分析

Measurements and estimations of photosynthetically active radiation in Beijing

The measurements of the photosynthetic photon flux density (Q_p) and other solar components have been in Beijing for 2-year period. The Q_p, broadband solar radiation (R_s) and the PAR fraction (Q_p / R_s) showed similar seasonal features that peaked in value during the Summer and reached their lowest value during the Winter. The PAR fraction ranged from 1.68 E M J^− 1 (Winter) to 1.98 E M J^− 1 (Summer) with an annual mean value of 1.83 E M J^− 1. The analysis of the hourly values also revealed a diurnal pattern, with higher values of Q_p and R_s being observed around noon. The PAR fraction increased from 1.78 to 1.89 μE J^− 1 (hourly values), as the sky conditions changed from clear to cloudy. The monthly mean hourly PAR fraction also revealed a diurnal variation, however, with lower values being observed around noon during most months. In November, the diurnal variations showed an opposite feature in comparison with other months. This is mainly attributed to the diurnal variations in the water vapor concentration.Two models were developed to estimate Q_p from R_s. The models consisted of atmospheric parameters that were found to cause substantial changes to the PAR fraction, such as sky clearness, brightness and path length. The estimated Q_p obtained via different equations was much closer to the observed values, with relative errors below 20% in Beijing. The Q_p and R_s data collected at three stations with featuring different climate types from within Beijing were used for verifying the transferability of the models. The correlation coefficients between the measured and estimated Q_p values decreased at these stations, and the relative error increased. This indicates that the estimation models need to be modified accordingly for the local climatic conditions.     

Dynamics of photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD) and estimates in coastal northern California

Plants require solar radiation for photosynthesis and their growth is directly related to the amount received, assuming that other environmental parameters are not limiting. Therefore, precise estimation of photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) is necessary to enhance overall accuracies of plant growth models. This study aimed to explore the PAR radiant flux in the San Francisco Bay Area of northern California. During the growing season (March through August) for 2?years 2007?C2008, the on-site magnitudes of photosynthetic photon flux densities (PPFD) were investigated and then processed at both the hourly and daily time scales. Combined with global solar radiation (R _S) and simulated extraterrestrial solar radiation, five PAR-related values were developed, i.e., flux density-based PAR (PPFD), energy-based PAR (PARE), from-flux-to-energy conversion efficiency (fFEC), and the fraction of PAR energy in the global solar radiation (fE), and a new developed indicator??lost PARE percentages (LPR)??when solar radiation penetrates from the extraterrestrial system to the ground. These PAR-related values indicated significant diurnal variation, high values occurring at midday, with the low values occurring in the morning and afternoon hours. During the entire experimental season, the overall mean hourly value of fFEC was found to be 2.17???mol?J^?1, while the respective fE value was 0.49. The monthly averages of hourly fFEC and fE at the solar noon time ranged from 2.15 in March to 2.39???mol?J^?1 in August and from 0.47 in March to 0.52 in July, respectively. However, the monthly average daily values were relatively constant, and they exhibited a weak seasonal variation, ranging from 2.02?mol?MJ^?1 and 0.45 (March) to 2.19?mol?MJ^?1 and 0.48 (June). The mean daily values of fFEC and fE at the solar noon were 2.16?mol?MJ^?1 and 0.47 across the entire growing season, respectively. Both PPFD and the ever first reported LPR showed strong diurnal patterns. However, they had opposite trends. PPFD was high around noon, resulting in low values of LPR during the same time period. Both were found to be highly correlated with global solar radiation R _S, solar elevation angle h, and the clearness index K _t. Using the best subset selection of variables, two parametric models were developed for estimating PPFD and LPR, which can easily be applied in radiometric sites, by recording only global solar radiation measurements. These two models were found to be involved with the most commonly measured global solar radiation (R _S) and two large-scale geometric parameters, i.e., extraterrestrial solar radiation and solar elevation. The models were therefore insensitive to local weather conditions such as temperature. In particular, with two test data sets collected in USA and Greece, it was verified that the models could be extended across different geographical areas, where they performed well. Therefore, these two hourly based models can be used to provide precise PAR-related values, such as those required for developing precise vegetation growth models.     

Relationship between Net Radiation and Broadband Solar Radiation in the Tibetan Plateau

The characteristics of net radiation (R_n)(0.3--10 μm) in Lhasa and Haibei in the Tibetan Plateau were analyzed based on long-term in-situ measurements of surface radiation data. The monthly average of daily R_n reached a minimum during the winter period followed by an increase until May and then a decline until January. This variation is consistent with solar activity. The annual mean daily total R_n values were 0.92 MJ m^-2 d^-1 and 0.66 MJ m^-2d^-1 in Lhasa and Haibei, respectively. A relationship between R_n and broadband solar radiation (R_s) was demonstrated by a good linear correlation at the two sites. R_n can be an accurate estimate from R_s. The estimated R_n values were similar to the observed values, and the relative deviations between the estimates and measurements of R_n were 2.8% and 3.8% in Lhasa and Haibei, respectively. The application of the R_n estimating model to other locations showed that it could provide acceptable estimated R_n values from the R_s data. Furthermore, we analyzed the influence of clouds on R_n by different clear index (K_s), defined as the ratio of R_s to the extraterrestrial solar irradiance on a horizontal surface. The results indicate that more accurate results are associated with increased cloudy conditions. The influence of the albedo was also considered, but its inclusion in the model resulted in only a slight improvement. Because surface albedo is not usually measured, an expression based solely on global solar radiation could be of more extensive use.     

Variation on PAR to global solar radiation ratio along altitude gradient in Naeba Mountain

Summary We investigated the ratio of photosynthetically active photon flux (Q _p ) to global solar radiation (R _s ) at three sites along different altitudes in Naeba Mountain, Japan at various temporal scales based on 3 years measurement data (1999–2001). The lowest values of the ratio ever reported were found for all sites on both an hourly and a daily scale. A similar slight diurnal pattern was found for all sites based on the monthly mean hourly values of the ratio. However, different sites exhibited different seasonal courses. Statistically significant altitude dependencies were found for the hourly Q _p /R _s under both clear and cloudy weather conditions (t-test, P < 0.001). For clear weather conditions, the hourly Q _p /R _s exhibited an increasing trend with altitude at an average rate of 3.6% per km. The increasing rate was more noticeable below 900 m (8.8% per km) than above (0.7% per km). The inverse trend was found for hourly Q _p /R _s with the altitude under cloudy weather conditions. The hourly Q _p /R _s decreased from 550 m to 1500 m at a rate of 1.8% per km. Again, a major decrease occurred below 900 m, which had the rate of 4.2% per km, compared with 0.2% per km over 900 m. Although the same tendencies were noted for daily Q _p /R _s , under clear sky conditions, they were not as statistically significant as the hourly counterpart (t-test, P < 0.021). The increasing rate of Q _p /R _s at this scale under clear weather conditions was near that of the hourly rate, but below the 900 m rate was reduced to near half of the hourly rate (4.7% per km). And the rate over 900 m increased to 2.7% per km. On the other hand, statistically significant altitude effect was noted for the daily under cloudy weather conditions (t-test, P < 0.002). A rapidly decreasing rate was found for it along the altitude gradient. The reason was due to the large decreasing rate below 900 m (12.4% per km). But again similar to the hourly Q _p /R _s , a very small decreasing rate of daily Q _p /R _s was found over 900 m under cloudy weather conditions. These results suggest the necessity of considering the altitude dependency of Q _p /R _s in future studies.     

The characteristics of ultraviolet radiation in arid and semi-arid regions of China

Measurements of the broadband global solar radiation (R _S) and total ultraviolet radiation (the sum of UV-A and UV-B) were conducted from 2005 to 2010 at 9 sites in arid and semi-arid regions of China. These data were used to determine the temporal variability of UV and UV/R _S and their dependence on the water vapor content and clearness index. The dependence of UV/R _S on aerosol optical depth (AOD) and water vapor content was also investigated. In addition, a simple and efficient empirically model suited for all-weather conditions was developed to estimate UV from R _s. The annual average daily UV level in arid and semi-arid areas is 0.61 and 0.59 MJ m^?2 d^?1, respectively. The highest value (0.66?±?0.25 MJ m^?2 d^?1) was recorded at an arid area at Linze. The lowest value (0.53?±?0.22 MJ m^?2 d^?1) was recorded at a semi-arid area at Ansai. The highest daily value of UV radiation was measured in May, whereas the lowest value was measured in December. The monthly variation of the UV/R _s ratio ranged from 0.41 in Aksu to 0.35 in Qira. The monthly mean value of UV/R _s gradually increased from November and then decreased in August. A small decreasing trend of UV/R _s was observed in the arid and semi-arid regions due to recently increasing amounts of fine aerosol. A simple and efficient empirically model suit for all-weather condition was developed to estimate UV from R _s. The slope a and intercept b of the regression line between the estimated and measured values were close to 1 and zero, respectively. The relative error between the estimated and measured values was less than 11.5%. Application of the model to data collected from different locations in this region also resulted in reasonable estimates of UV.     

Analysis of photosynthetically active radiation and applied parameterization model for estimating of PAR in the North China Plain

As photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) variability and PAR estimating methods play an important role in climate change and ecological process research, PAR variation trends and broadband global solar radiation (R _s ) ratios (PAR/R _s ) in the North China Plain (NCP) are examined using in situ PAR and R _s observed data for 2005 to 2011. The annual average PAR value found in the NCP is 22.9 mol m^?2 d^?1. The highest and lowest values were recorded at Changwu and Luancheng sites, respectively. The highest PAR/R _s value was found in Jiaozhouwan due to large water vapor volumes present in this area. PAR/R _s levels have increased in the NCP due to a decrease in fine aerosols and increase in water vapor concentration. From these analysis results, a parameterization model that can be applied to all sky conditions was checked. Empirical estimation model comparisons for obtaining PAR values indicate that model was least accurate when R _s was used independently. When the model included R _s, the clearness index (K _s) and the solar zenith angle, the model estimated PAR values with acceptable accuracy. A parameterization model was constructed by considering K _s and attenuation factors of PAR under clear weather conditions (ρ _clear). The improved parameterization model more accurately predicts values for local sites and for various observation sites.     

Energy balance storage terms in a mature mixed forest at Petawawa,Ontario — A case study

The energy storage terms for a mature mixed forest at Petawawa, Ontario are reported for 38 days in the summer of 1982 when the forest was in full leaf. Hourly, daily and daytime values of the storage terms are documented. The biomass storage term, Q _v , should be calculated from measurement of biomass temperature change. For hourly periods, the storage terms can be of significant size with respect to net radiation, Q ^*. This is especially the case at night, in the early morning after sunrise, and near sunset. The importance of the storage terms is still pronounced when daytime totals are considered — the ratio of the total storage (Q _s ) to Q ^* varied from 1 to 15% for the whole sample, but is typically between 5 and 10%. For daily totals when the canopy is dry and the net radiation high, Q _s is typically 2 to 3 % of Q ^*. However, it can be up to 10% of Q ^* under particular conditions (overcast days, or during or immediately following rainfall).
