In this approach, deep convection triggering and intensity are controlled by sub-cloud processes: here boundary layer thermals and gust fronts, and potentially orography or surface heterogeneities. The representation of the diurnal cycle of deep convection is greatly improved in 1D mode, with rainfall maximum delayed from midday to late afternoon, provided parameterizations account for the key role played by shallow cumulus in preconditioning deep convection and by gust fronts in the self-sustaining of thunderstorms in the afternoon. }}, doi = {10.1029/2008GL036779}, adsurl = {http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2009GeoRL..36.7809R}, adsnote = {Provided by the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System} }  @article{2009JGRE..11411008E, author = {{Eymet}, V. and {Fournier}, R. and {Dufresne}, J.-L. and {Lebonnois}, S. and {Hourdin}, F. and {Bullock}, M.~A.}, title = {{Net exchange parameterization of thermal infrared radiative transfer in Venus' atmosphere}}, journal = {Journal of Geophysical Research (Planets)}, keywords = {Atmospheric Processes: Radiative processes, Atmospheric Composition and Structure: Radiation: transmission and scattering, Global Change: Global climate models (3337, 4928), Atmospheric Composition and Structure: Cloud/radiation interaction, Mineral Physics: Optical, infrared, and Raman spectroscopy}, year = 2009, month = nov, volume = 114, number = e13, eid = {E11008}, pages = {11008}, abstract = {{Thermal radiation within Venus atmosphere is analyzed in close details.

The model was derived from the general circulation model LMDz; it groups together the 24 aerosol species simulated in LMDz into 4 species, namely gaseous precursors, fine mode aerosols, coarse mode desert dust and coarse mode sea salt. The emissions have been kept as in the original model. Modifications, however, were introduced in the computation of aerosol optical depth and in the processes of sedimentation, dry and wet deposition and sulphur chemistry to ensure consistency with the new set of species and their composition. The simplified model successfully manages to reproduce the main features of the aerosol distribution in LMDz. The largest differences in aerosol load are observed for fine mode aerosols and gaseous precursors. Differences between the original and simplified models are mainly associated to the new deposition and sedimentation velocities consistent with the definition of species in the simplified model and the simplification of the sulphur chemistry. Furthermore, simulated aerosol optical depth remains within the variability of monthly AERONET observations for all aerosol types and all sites throughout most of the year. Largest differences are observed over sites with strong desert dust influence. In terms of the daily aerosol variability, the model is less able to reproduce the observed variability from the AERONET data with larger discrepancies in stations affected by industrial aerosols. The simplified model however, closely follows the daily simulation from LMDz. Sensitivity analyses with the tangent linear version show that the simplified sulphur chemistry is the dominant process responsible for the strong non-linearity of the model. }}, adsurl = {http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2009GMD.....2..213H}, adsnote = {Provided by the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System} }  @article{2009ACP.....9.9001K, author = {{Koch}, D. and {Schulz}, M. and {Kinne}, S. and {McNaughton}, C. and {Spackman}, J.~R. and {Balkanski}, Y. and {Bauer}, S. and {Berntsen}, T. and {Bond}, T.~C. and {Boucher}, O. and {Chin}, M. and {Clarke}, A. and {de Luca}, N. and {Dentener}, F. and {Diehl}, T. and {Dubovik}, O. and {Easter}, R. and {Fahey}, D.~W. and {Feichter}, J. and {Fillmore}, D. and {Freitag}, S. and {Ghan}, S. and {Ginoux}, P. and {Gong}, S. and {Horowitz}, L. and {Iversen}, T. and {Kirkev{\aa}g}, A. and {Klimont}, Z. and {Kondo}, Y. and {Krol}, M. and {Liu}, X. and {Miller}, R. and {Montanaro}, V. and {Moteki}, N. and {Myhre}, G. and {Penner}, J.~E. and {Perlwitz}, J. and {Pitari}, G. and {Reddy}, S. and {Sahu}, L. and {Sakamoto}, H. and {Schuster}, G. and {Schwarz}, J.~P. and {Seland}, {\O}. and {Stier}, P. and {Takegawa}, N. and {Takemura}, T. and {Textor}, C. and {van Aardenne}, J.~A. and {Zhao}, Y.}, title = {{Evaluation of black carbon estimations in global aerosol models}}, journal = {Atmospheric Chemistry \& Physics}, year = 2009, month = nov, volume = 9, pages = {9001-9026}, abstract = {{We evaluate black carbon (BC) model predictions from the AeroCom model intercomparison project by considering the diversity among year 2000 model simulations and comparing model predictions with available measurements. These model-measurement intercomparisons include BC surface and aircraft concentrations, aerosol absorption optical depth (AAOD) retrievals from AERONET and Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) and BC column estimations based on AERONET. In regions other than Asia, most models are biased high compared to surface concentration measurements. However compared with (column) AAOD or BC burden retreivals, the models are generally biased low. The average ratio of model to retrieved AAOD is less than 0.7 in South American and 0.6 in African biomass burning regions; both of these regions lack surface concentration measurements. In Asia the average model to observed ratio is 0.7 for AAOD and 0.5 for BC surface concentrations. Compared with aircraft measurements over the Americas at latitudes between 0 and 50N, the average model is a factor of 8 larger than observed, and most models exceed the measured BC standard deviation in the mid to upper troposphere. At higher latitudes the average model to aircraft BC ratio is 0.4 and models underestimate the observed BC loading in the lower and middle troposphere associated with springtime Arctic haze. Low model bias for AAOD but overestimation of surface and upper atmospheric BC concentrations at lower latitudes suggests that most models are underestimating BC absorption and should improve estimates for refractive index, particle size, and optical effects of BC coating. Retrieval uncertainties and/or differences with model diagnostic treatment may also contribute to the model-measurement disparity. Largest AeroCom model diversity occurred in northern Eurasia and the remote Arctic, regions influenced by anthropogenic sources. Changing emissions, aging, removal, or optical properties within a single model generated a smaller change in model predictions than the range represented by the full set of AeroCom models.

Within the international AEROCOM initiative, the representation of aerosol-cloud-radiation interactions in ten different general circulation models (GCMs) is evaluated using three satellite datasets. The focus is on stratiform liquid water clouds since most GCMs do not include ice nucleation effects, and none of the model explicitly parameterises aerosol effects on convective clouds. We compute statistical relationships between aerosol optical depth ({$\tau$}$_{a}$) and various cloud and radiation quantities in a manner that is consistent between the models and the satellite data. It is found that the model-simulated influence of aerosols on cloud droplet number concentration (N$_{d}$) compares relatively well to the satellite data at least over the ocean. The relationship between {$\tau$}$_{a}$and liquid water path is simulated much too strongly by the models. This suggests that the implementation of the second aerosol indirect effect mainly in terms of an autoconversion parameterisation has to be revisited in the GCMs. A positive relationship between total cloud fraction (f$_{cld}$) and {$\tau$}$_{a}$as found in the satellite data is simulated by the majority of the models, albeit less strongly than that in the satellite data in most of them. In a discussion of the hypotheses proposed in the literature to explain the satellite-derived strong f$_{cld}$-{$\tau$}$_{a}$relationship, our results indicate that none can be identified as a unique explanation. Relationships similar to the ones found in satellite data between {$\tau$}$_{a}$and cloud top temperature or outgoing long-wave radiation (OLR) are simulated by only a few GCMs. The GCMs that simulate a negative OLR-{$\tau$}$_{a}$relationship show a strong positive correlation between {$\tau$}$_{a}$and f$_{cld}$. The short-wave total aerosol radiative forcing as simulated by the GCMs is strongly influenced by the simulated anthropogenic fraction of {$\tau$}$_{a}$, and parameterisation assumptions such as a lower bound on N$_{d}$. Nevertheless, the strengths of the statistical relationships are good predictors for the aerosol forcings in the models. An estimate of the total short-wave aerosol forcing inferred from the combination of these predictors for the modelled forcings with the satellite-derived statistical relationships yields a global annual mean value of -1.5{\plusmn}0.5 Wm$^{-2}$. In an alternative approach, the radiative flux perturbation due to anthropogenic aerosols can be broken down into a component over the cloud-free portion of the globe (approximately the aerosol direct effect) and a component over the cloudy portion of the globe (approximately the aerosol indirect effect). An estimate obtained by scaling these simulated clear- and cloudy-sky forcings with estimates of anthropogenic {$\tau$}$_{a}$and satellite-retrieved N$_{d}$-{$\tau$}$_{a}$regression slopes, respectively, yields a global, annual-mean aerosol direct effect estimate of -0.4{\plusmn}0.2 Wm$^{-2}$and a cloudy-sky (aerosol indirect effect) estimate of -0.7{\plusmn}0.5 Wm$^{-2}$, with a total estimate of -1.2{\plusmn}0.4 Wm$^{-2}$. }}, adsurl = {http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2009ACP.....9.8697Q}, adsnote = {Provided by the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System} }  @article{2009ACP.....9.8493Q, author = {{Quaas}, J. and {Boucher}, O. and {Jones}, A. and {Weedon}, G.~P. and {Kieser}, J. and {Joos}, H.}, title = {{Exploiting the weekly cycle as observed over Europe to analyse aerosol indirect effects in two climate models}}, journal = {Atmospheric Chemistry \& Physics}, year = 2009, month = nov, volume = 9, pages = {8493-8501}, abstract = {{A weekly cycle in aerosol pollution and some meteorological quantities is observed over Europe.

It is found that the simulated weekly cycles in sulfur dioxide, sulfate, and aerosol optical depth in both models agree reasonably well with those observed indicating model skill in simulating the aerosol cycle. A distinct weekly cycle in cloud droplet number concentration is demonstrated in both observations and models. For other variables, such as cloud liquid water path, cloud cover, top-of-the-atmosphere radiation fluxes, precipitation, and surface temperature, large variability and contradictory results between observations, model simulations, and model control simulations without a weekly cycle in emissions prevent us from reaching any firm conclusions about the potential aerosol impact on meteorology or the realism of the modelled second aerosol indirect effects. }}, adsurl = {http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2009ACP.....9.8493Q}, adsnote = {Provided by the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System} }  @article{2009Icar..203..390M, author = {{Madeleine}, J.-B. and {Forget}, F. and {Head}, J.~W. and {Levrard}, B. and {Montmessin}, F. and {Millour}, E.}, title = {{Amazonian northern mid-latitude glaciation on Mars: A proposed climate scenario}}, journal = {\icarus}, year = 2009, month = oct, volume = 203, pages = {390-405}, abstract = {{Recent geological observations in the northern mid-latitudes of Mars show evidence for past glacial activity during the late Amazonian, similar to the integrated glacial landsystems in the Dry Valleys of Antarctica. The large accumulation of ice (many hundreds of meters) required to create the observed glacial deposits points to significant atmospheric precipitation, snow and ice accumulation, and glacial flow. In order to understand the climate scenario required for these conditions, we used the LMD (Laboratoire de Météorologie Dynamique) Mars GCM (General Circulation Model), which is able to reproduce the present-day water cycle, and to predict past deposition of ice consistent with geological observations in many cases. Prior to this analysis, however, significant mid-latitude glaciation had not been simulated by the model, run under a range of parameters. In this analysis, we studied the response of the GCM to a wider range of orbital configurations and water ice reservoirs, and show that during periods of moderate obliquity ( {$\epsilon$} = 25-35{\deg}) and high dust opacity ( {$\tau$}$_{dust}$= 1.5-2.5), broad-scale glaciation in the northern mid-latitudes occurs if water ice deposited on the flanks of the Tharsis volcanoes at higher obliquity is available for sublimation. We find that high dust contents of the atmosphere increase its water vapor holding capacity, thereby moving the saturation region to the northern mid-latitudes. Precipitation events are then controlled by topographic forcing of stationary planetary waves and transient weather systems, producing surface ice distribution and amounts that are consistent with the geological record. Ice accumulation rates of {\tilde}10 mm yr$^{-1}$lead to the formation of a 500-1000 m thick regional ice sheet that will produce glacial flow patterns consistent with the geological observations. }}, doi = {10.1016/j.icarus.2009.04.037}, adsurl = {http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2009Icar..203..390M}, adsnote = {Provided by the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System} }  @article{2009ERL.....4d4007B, author = {{Boucher}, O. and {Friedlingstein}, P. and {Collins}, B. and {Shine}, K.~P.}, title = {{The indirect global warming potential and global temperature change potential due to methane oxidation}}, journal = {Environmental Research Letters}, year = 2009, month = oct, volume = 4, number = 4, eid = {044007}, pages = {044007}, abstract = {{Methane is the second most important anthropogenic greenhouse gas in the atmosphere next to carbon dioxide.

Although the methane GWP traditionally includes the methane indirect effects on the concentrations of ozone and stratospheric water vapour, it does not take into account the production of carbon dioxide from methane oxidation. We argue here that this CO$_{2}$-induced effect should be included for fossil sources of methane, which results in slightly larger GWP values for all time horizons. If the global temperature change potential is used as an alternative climate metric, then the impact of the CO$_{2}$-induced effect is proportionally much larger.

The reliability of FY-2C cloud products over Southeast Asia is investigated through comparisons to cloud cover from the International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project, the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer on board Terra and Aqua satellites, and conventional ground observations. It is shown that the FY-2C cloud mask performs consistently with other cloud mask products over Southeast Asia. In the boreal winter, the whole domain is dry with little cloudiness. More extensive cloudiness can be observed over the Sichuan Basin, in the East China Sea and the South China Sea, along the northwestern border of China, and around the ITCZ in the Southern Hemisphere. In the boreal summer, the summer monsoon is the dominant system for the studied domain, which is generally humid with extensive cloudiness, corresponding to zones of strong convective activities. Results also reveal considerable discrepancies among different cloud products over extended areas of north China and Mongolia. The Sichuan Basin is another region of large discrepancies among the four cloud products. Diurnal cycles of FY-2C cloudiness for the four seasons of a year are analyzed. The diurnal range of cloudiness is generally larger over land than over ocean. Remarkable diurnal variation is found over the Tibetan Plateau, the northern part of the Indian Peninsula, and central Asia where there is generally less precipitation. The peaks of diurnal cycle of cloudiness appear around local noon over the subtropical land, in the morning over the Indian Peninsula, and in the afternoon near the equator. }}, doi = {10.1029/2008JD011422}, adsurl = {http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2009JGRD..11417207J}, adsnote = {Provided by the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System} }  @article{2009GeoRL..3616707H, author = {{Hannart}, A. and {Dufresne}, J.-L. and {Naveau}, P.}, title = {{Why climate sensitivity may not be so unpredictable}}, journal = {\grl}, keywords = {Atmospheric Processes: Climate change and variability (1616, 1635, 3309, 4215, 4513), Mathematical Geophysics: Uncertainty quantification (1873), Global Change: Global climate models (3337, 4928)}, year = 2009, month = aug, volume = 36, eid = {L16707}, pages = {16707}, abstract = {{Different explanations have been proposed as to why the range of climate sensitivity predicted by GCMs has not lessened substantially in the last decades, and subsequently if it can be reduced.

Here, we present an idealized study of the climate response to deliberately seeding large-scale stratocumulus cloud decks in the North Pacific, South Pacific, and South Atlantic, thereby inducing cooling via aerosol indirect effects. Atmosphere-only, atmosphere/mixed-layer ocean, and fully coupled atmosphere/ocean versions of the Met Office Hadley Centre model are used to investigate the radiative forcing, climate efficacy, and regional response of temperature, precipitation, and net primary productivity to such geoengineering. The radiative forcing simulations indicate that, for our parameterization of aerosol indirect effects, up to 35\% of the radiative forcing due to current levels of greenhouse gases could be offset by stratocumulus modification. Equilibrium simulations with the atmosphere/mixed-layer ocean model, wherein each of the three stratocumulus sheets is modified in turn, reveal that the most efficient cooling per unit radiative forcing occurs when the South Pacific stratocumulus sheet is modified. Transient coupled model simulations suggest that geoengineering all three stratocumulus areas delays the simulated global warming by about 25 years. These simulations also indicate that, while some areas experience increases in precipitation and net primary productivity, sharp decreases are simulated in South America, with particularly detrimental impacts on the Amazon rain forest. These results show that, while some areas benefit from geoengineering, there are significant areas where the response could be very detrimental with implications for the practical applicability of such a scheme. }}, doi = {10.1029/2008JD011450}, adsurl = {http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2009JGRD..11410106J}, adsnote = {Provided by the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System} }  @article{2009JGRD..114.6206M, author = {{Morcrette}, J.-J. and {Boucher}, O. and {Jones}, L. and {Salmond}, D. and {Bechtold}, P. and {Beljaars}, A. and {Benedetti}, A. and {Bonet}, A. and {Kaiser}, J.~W. and {Razinger}, M. and {Schulz}, M. and {Serrar}, S. and {Simmons}, A.~J. and {Sofiev}, M. and {Suttie}, M. and {Tompkins}, A.~M. and {Untch}, A.}, title = {{Aerosol analysis and forecast in the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts Integrated Forecast System: Forward modeling}}, journal = {Journal of Geophysical Research (Atmospheres)}, keywords = {Atmospheric Composition and Structure: Aerosols and particles (0345, 4801, 4906), Global Change: Earth system modeling (1225), Atmospheric Processes: Clouds and aerosols, aerosol modelling, weather forecast}, year = 2009, month = mar, volume = 114, eid = {D06206}, pages = {6206}, abstract = {{This paper presents the aerosol modeling now part of the ECMWF Integrated Forecasting System (IFS).

It details the various parameterizations used in the IFS to account for the presence of tropospheric aerosols. Details are given of the various formulations and data sets for the sources of the different aerosols and of the parameterizations describing their sinks. Comparisons of monthly mean and daily aerosol quantities like optical depths against satellite and surface observations are presented. The capability of the forecast model to simulate aerosol events is illustrated through comparisons of dust plume events. The ECMWF IFS provides a good description of the horizontal distribution and temporal variability of the main aerosol types. The forecast-only model described here generally gives the total aerosol optical depth within 0.12 of the relevant observations and can therefore provide the background trajectory information for the aerosol assimilation system described in part 2 of this paper. }}, doi = {10.1029/2008JD011235}, adsurl = {http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2009JGRD..114.6206M}, adsnote = {Provided by the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System} }  @article{2009RSPTA.367..665L, author = {{Lebonnois}, S. and {Rannou}, P. and {Hourdin}, F.}, title = {{The coupling of winds, aerosols and chemistry in Titan's atmosphere}}, journal = {Royal Society of London Philosophical Transactions Series A}, year = 2009, month = feb, volume = 367, pages = {665-682}, doi = {10.1098/rsta.2008.0243}, adsurl = {http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2009RSPTA.367..665L}, adsnote = {Provided by the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System} }  @article{2009ClDy...32..237B, author = {{Boucher}, O. and {Jones}, A. and {Betts}, R.~A.}, title = {{Climate response to the physiological impact of carbon dioxide on plants in the Met Office Unified Model HadCM3}}, journal = {Climate Dynamics}, keywords = {Carbon dioxide, Physiological forcing, Climate response, Feedbacks}, year = 2009, month = feb, volume = 32, pages = {237-249}, abstract = {{The concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere acts to control the stomatal conductance of plants. There is observational and modelling evidence that an increase in the atmospheric concentration of CO$_{2}$would suppress the evapotranspiration (ET) rate over land. This process is known as CO$_{2}$physiological forcing and has been shown to induce changes in surface temperature and continental runoff. We analyse two transient climate simulations for the twenty-first century to isolate the climate response to the CO$_{2}$physiological forcing. The land surface warming associated with the decreased ET rate is accompanied by an increase in the atmospheric lapse rate, an increase in specific humidity, but a decrease in relative humidity and stratiform cloud over land. We find that the water vapour feedback more than compensates for the decrease in latent heat flux over land as far as the budget of atmospheric water vapour is concerned. There is evidence that surface snow, water vapour and cloudiness respond to the CO$_{2}$physiological forcing and all contribute to further warm the climate system. The climate response to the CO$_{2}$physiological forcing has a quite different signature to that from the CO$_{2}$radiative forcing, especially in terms of the changes in the temperature vertical profile and surface energy budget over land. }}, doi = {10.1007/s00382-008-0459-6}, adsurl = {http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2009ClDy...32..237B}, adsnote = {Provided by the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System} }  @article{2009GeoRL..36.2703D, author = {{Doutriaux-Boucher}, M. and {Webb}, M.~J. and {Gregory}, J.~M. and {Boucher}, O.}, title = {{Carbon dioxide induced stomatal closure increases radiative forcing via a rapid reduction in low cloud}}, journal = {\grl}, keywords = {Biogeosciences: Carbon cycling (4806), Global Change: Global climate models (3337, 4928), Global Change: Land/atmosphere interactions (1218, 1843, 3322), Atmospheric Processes: Clouds and cloud feedbacks}, year = 2009, month = jan, volume = 36, eid = {L02703}, pages = {2703}, abstract = {{We performed an ensemble of twelve five-year experiments using a coupled climate-carbon-cycle model with scenarios of prescribed atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration; CO$_{2}$was instantaneously doubled or quadrupled at the start of the experiments. Within these five years, climate feedback is not significantly influenced by the effects of climate change on the carbon system. However, rapid changes take place, within much less than a year, due to the physiological effect of CO$_{2}$on plant stomatal conductance, leading to adjustment in the shortwave cloud radiative effect over land, due to a reduction in low cloud cover. This causes a 10\% enhancement to the radiative forcing due to CO$_{2}\$, which leads to an increase in the equilibrium
warming of 0.4 and 0.7 K for doubling and quadrupling. The implications
for calibration of energy-balance models are discussed.
