A23F:
The Underappreciated Aerosol Coarse Mode I Posters
Session ID#: 8230
Session Description:
Many areas of the world show an aerosol volume distribution with a significant coarse mode and sometimes a dominant coarse mode. The large coarse mode is usually due to dust, but other aerosols can also play an important role. This mode tends to be ignored because it is difficult to measure, and the perception that it does not exert a large effect on aerosol forcing or chemistry. However, coarse mode aerosols can have a significant effect on radiative forcing, both in the shortwave and longwave spectrum, and these forcings must be accounted for in atmospheric models. Forcings based only on fine mode aerosols have the potential to be misleading, as demonstrated in recent studies. We seek papers regarding: coarse mode aerosol generation mechanisms, transport and deposition, chemical composition and interaction with fine mode aerosols, visible and thermal IR refractive radiative properties, coarse mode effects on forcing, and specific instrumentation needs.
