The Underappreciated Aerosol Coarse Mode: Dust Sources and Coarse Mode Impacts on Climate and Biogeochemistry I Posters
Submit an Abstract to this Session
Session ID#: 30668
Session Description:
The coarse 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 substantial impact on ice nuclei concentrations, on radiative forcing, and when deposited change the biogeochemistry and impact on the carbon cycle. There is a need to assimilate the current state of knowledge about coarse mode aerosol and its influence on climate and biogeochemistry. Factors that must be considered include: (1) variability in dust generation, (2) size-resolved physical, optical and chemical characteristics, and (3) atmospheric processing. This session encourages the presentation of work that addresses these factors in measurements and models. Individual observational studies at specific locations, cross-scales studies, and global modeling synthesis studies are encouraged. Also, this session will focus discussion about our evolving knowledge of the linkages between drought, "natural" and anthropogenic dust emissivity.
