Collaborative Research: Morphological, Chemical, Optical and Radiative Properties of Multi-Component Aerosol in the Aerosol Characterization Experiment (ACE)-Asia Region

该项目由夏威夷大学的Barry Huebert （ATM-0002604）、新墨西哥州立大学的Richard Arimoto （ATM-0002599）和科罗拉多大学的Irina Sokolik （ATM-0002746）合作完成，是ACE-Asia项目（气溶胶表征实验）的一部分。气溶胶化学性质的协调测量将由休伯特博士和Arimoto博士进行。其他合作者将分别提供气溶胶光学特性和辐射的测量（迈克尔·伯金，佐治亚理工学院）和单粒子分析（詹姆斯·安德森，亚利桑那州立大学）。测量将在中国陕西省榆林市附近的镇北台进行。选择这个站点代表中国的尘源区域。对在那里发现的气溶胶进行详细的现场表征，将为解释亚洲大陆下风向的空气强度中气溶胶特性的测量提供重要信息。Sokolik博士将提供数值分析，旨在量化亚洲多组分气溶胶的辐射强迫及其对气候的影响。

This project represents a collaboration between Barry Huebert, University of Hawaii (ATM-0002604), Richard Arimoto, New Mexico State University (ATM-0002599), and Irina Sokolik, University of Colorado (ATM-0002746) and is part of the ACE-Asia Project (Aerosol Characterization Experiment). Coordinated measurements of aerosol chemical properties will be carried out by Dr. Huebert and Dr. Arimoto. Other collaborators, supported separately, will provide measurements of aerosol optical properties and radiation (Michael Bergin, Georgia Tech) and single-particle analysis (James Anderson, Arizona State University). The measurements will be carried out at Zhenbeitai, a site near Yulin, Shaanxi Province, China. This site was chosen to represent the dust source regions of China. Detailed in-situ characterization of the aerosols found there will provide important information for the interpretation of measurements of aerosol properties in the airborne intensive of ACE-Asia downwind of the Asian continent. Dr. Sokolik will provide numerical analyses aimed at quantifying the radiative forcing by Asian multicomponent aerosols and their impacts on climate.
