Shipborne Radiation Measurements During the Aerosol Characterization Experiment (ACE)-Asia

该项目在ACE-ASIA(气溶胶特性实验--ASIA)强化外业计划期间提供辐射测量及其解释。ACE-ASIA是一个由多个研究人员参与的国际项目，旨在研究东亚流出的气溶胶的化学性质和辐射效应。研究人员将与NASA SIMBIOS(生物和跨学科海洋研究的传感器相互比较和合并)计划资助的科学家密切合作，他们将进行一系列辐射测量，并汇编和解释这些数据，以了解该地区气溶胶的辐射效应。PI还将部署额外的辐射仪器，并进行辐射强迫计算。结果将与INDOEX(印度洋实验)的结果进行比较。这项研究很重要，因为它可能有助于更好地了解来自东亚的污染物对该区域气候以及东亚海岸下风向太平洋地区气候的影响。

This project provides radiation measurements and their interpretation during the ACE-Asia (Aerosol Characterization Experiment - Asia) intensive field program. ACE-Asia is a multi-investigator, international program designed to characterize the chemical properties and radiative effects of aerosols in the outflow from eastern Asia. The investigator will collaborate closely with scientists funded by the NASA SIMBIOS (Sensor Intercomparison and Merger for Biological and Interdisciplinary Oceanic Studies) program who will perform a suite of radiation measurements and compile and interpret these data for the purpose of understanding the radiative effect of aerosols in the region. The PI will also deploy additional radiation instruments and perform calculations of radiative forcing. The results will be compared to those from INDOEX (The Indian Ocean Experiment). This research is important because it may lead to improved understanding of the effects of pollutents from East Asia on the climate of that region as well as that of Pacific regions downwind of the East Asian coast.
