Download or read book Concurrent Measurements of Water Vapor and Ozone Over Washington D C During 1967 and 1968 written by H. J. Mastenbrook and published by . This book was released on 1969 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A balloon-borne instrument system has been assembled which can concurrently measure the concentrations of water vapor and ozone in the atmosphere. An observational program has provided the first collection of data of this kind for studies of atmospheric circulation. Nineteen soundings were made during 1967 and 1968 over the Washington, D.C., area, each providing vertical distributions of these two gases. The data from these soundings have been individually recorded in tables and graphs. (Author).

This book was released on 1973 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents a description and detailed analysis of a technique for inferring atmospheric ozone information from satellite nadir measurements in the 1042 cm−1 band. A method is formulated for computing the emission from the lower boundary under the satellite which circumvents the difficult analytical problems caused by the presence of atmospheric clouds and the water-vapor continuum absorption. The inversion equations are expanded in terms of the eigenvectors and eigenvalues of a least-squares-solution matrix, and an analysis is performed to determine the information content of the radiance measurements. The results show that under favorable conditions there are only two pieces of independent information available from the measurements: the total ozone u and the altitude hm of the primary maximum in the ozone profile. An error analysis shows that errors in u are affected most by random radiance noise, lower boundary temperature errors, and ozone absorption-line intensity errors. Errors in hm are affected most by the former two errors and also by temperature-profile bias errors. The results when all errors are considered simultaneously indicate that it should ultimately be possible to determine u to within 10 percent or less and to determine hm to within 1.5 km when the root-mean-square radiance noise level is 1 percent or less. The calculations are also made for various degrees of cloudiness in the troposphere. The data show that the presence of clouds does not seriously affect results as long as there is some contrast between the ozone spectrum and the lower boundary emission spectrum. Finally, the inversion technique is applied to radiances measured from a balloon over Palestine, Texas, and to Nimbus III satellite data measured over the Bahama Islands.
Download or read book Latitudinal and Vertical Relationship Between Tropospheric Ozone and Water Vapor as Measured in Project Gametag written by Francis X. Routhier and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reported are the O3 and dewpoint data recorded during the 1977 and 1978 GAMETAG field experiments. These data are primarily those recorded aboard an aircraft during horizontal flight legs at altitudes between 5-6.5 kilometers (free troposphere) and below one kilometer (boundary layer). The total latitude range covered was 70 N to 58 N and involved flight operations over Canada, Alaska, the eastern and central north Pacific, and the central and western south Pacific. A comparison of the GAMETAG ozone and dewpoint data shows a significant negative correlation between O3 and dewpoint; or if the comparison is made with dewpoint depression, a significant positive correlation. The strongest negative correlation between O3 and dewpoint appears at those latitudes showing the highest ozone variability. This negative correlation when coupled with the presence of ozone layering implies that a major source of the ozone observed during the GAMETAG flights was that resulting from the downward sloping transport of ozone rich upper tropospheric or lower stratospheric air.

This book was released on 1972 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concurrent measurements of the vertical distribution of water vapor and ozone in the atmosphere have been obtained at approximately one-month intervals at a site near Washington, D.C. Data for 19 soundings during the period 1969 and 1970 are presented in tables and graphs. (Author).

This book was released on 2008-05-30 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first part of this book reviews the basics of atmospheric chemistry, radiation transport, and optical spectroscopy before detailing the principles underlying DOAS. The second part describes the design and application of DOAS instruments as well as the evaluation and interpretation of spectra. The recent expansion of DOAS application to the imaging of trace gas distributions by ground, aircraft, and satellite-based instruments is also covered.

Download or read book Introduction to Atmospheric Chemistry written by Daniel J. Jacob and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Atmospheric chemistry is one of the fastest growing fields in the earth sciences. Until now, however, there has been no book designed to help students capture the essence of the subject in a brief course of study. Daniel Jacob, a leading researcher and teacher in the field, addresses that problem by presenting the first textbook on atmospheric chemistry for a one-semester course. Based on the approach he developed in his class at Harvard, Jacob introduces students in clear and concise chapters to the fundamentals as well as the latest ideas and findings in the field. Jacob's aim is to show students how to use basic principles of physics and chemistry to describe a complex system such as the atmosphere. He also seeks to give students an overview of the current state of research and the work that led to this point. Jacob begins with atmospheric structure, design of simple models, atmospheric transport, and the continuity equation, and continues with geochemical cycles, the greenhouse effect, aerosols, stratospheric ozone, the oxidizing power of the atmosphere, smog, and acid rain. Each chapter concludes with a problem set based on recent scientific literature. This is a novel approach to problem-set writing, and one that successfully introduces students to the prevailing issues. This is a major contribution to a growing area of study and will be welcomed enthusiastically by students and teachers alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This has been an extended study of water vapor distributions in the middle atmosphere and their interaction with the D-region ionosphere. Water vapor measurements have been conducted using ground-based microwave radiometry-spectroscopy both in the solar absorption and thermal emission modes. Radio-wave absorption observations, were used to characterize the lower ionosphere. We were unable to establish a clear role for water vapor and large (H2O) cluster ions in D-region chemistry. The water vapor measurements are a unique data set and have been used to examine the vertical and seasonal structure of mesospheric H2O, ozone chemistry, noctilucent clouds, and atmospheric circulation issues.
