Suresh Babu","doi":"10.1016/j.jqsrt.2025.109365","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jqsrt.2025.109365","url":null,"abstract":"Estimating Top-of-Atmosphere (TOA) flux and radiance is essential for understanding Earth's radiation budget and climate dynamics. This study utilized polar nephelometer measurements of aerosol scattering coefficients at 17 angles (9–170°), enabling the experimental determination of aerosol phase functions and the calculation of Legendre moments. These moments were then used to estimate TOA flux and radiance. Conducted at a tropical coastal site in India, the study observed significant seasonal and diurnal variations in angular scattering patterns, with the highest scattering during winter and the lowest during the monsoon. Notably, a prominent secondary scattering mode, with varying magnitude across different seasons, was observed in the 20–30° angular range, highlighting the influence of different air masses and aerosol sources. Chemical analysis of size-segregated aerosols revealed that fine-mode aerosols were dominated by anthropogenic species, such as sulfate, nitrate, and ammonium, throughout all seasons. In contrast, coarse-mode aerosols showed a clear presence of sea-salt aerosols during the monsoon and mineral dust during the pre-monsoon periods. The presence of very large coarse-mode non-spherical aerosols caused increased oscillations in the phase function beyond 60° during the pre-monsoon and monsoon seasons. This also led to a weak association between the phase function derived from angular scattering measurements and those predicted by the Henyey-Greenstein approximation. As a result, TOA fluxes and radiances derived using the Henyey-Greenstein approximation (with the asymmetry parameter as input in the radiative transfer model) showed a significant difference - up to 24% in seasons with substantial coarse-mode aerosol presence - compared to those derived using the Legendre moments of the phase function. Therefore, TOA flux and radiance estimates using Legendre moments are generally more accurate in the presence of complex aerosol scattering characteristics, particularly for non-spherical or coarse-mode aerosols, while the Henyey-Greenstein phase function may yield less accurate results due to its simplified representation of scattering behavior.","PeriodicalId":16935,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Quantitative Spectroscopy & Radiative Transfer","volume":"59 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143050016","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In order to better comprehend the connection between visibility and aerosols, aerosol optical depth (AOD) and Angström exponent (AE) data from the Himawari-8 Advanced Himawari Imager (AHI) are used for validation in comparison with the data from the Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) observations in this paper, which amounted to 69,026 sets of data. The results indicate that the AOD of AHI is in good agreement with AERONET observations, but AE performs poorly. The correlation coefficients between the AOD of AHI and AERONET data increase with decreasing visibility and the root mean square error increase. The AE of AHI performs poorly in different visibility conditions. The conclusion drawn from further analysis of the correlation between aerosol products and meteorological factors is that the factor with the highest correlation with visibility. Mixed aerosols dominate at higher visibility and biomass burning/urban-industrial aerosols dominate at lower visibility. The visibility in a typical city (Beijing) has a strong negative correlation with AOD, a weak negative correlation with AE, and a strong correlation with aerosol radiative forcing. The reduction in visibility may be caused by the scattering and adsorption effects of aerosols. The results are important for the improvement and application of AHI aerosol products in regional pollution studies.","PeriodicalId":16935,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Quantitative Spectroscopy & Radiative Transfer","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142990271","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Correspondingly, the accurate computation of multiple scattering processes in the radiative transfer is high resolution required and time-consuming. A decomposition method is described in this study for the separation of radiative transfer into a rapidly-varying process (RVP) and a slowly-varying process (SVP). The proposed diffraction decomposition order (DDO) method is developed by considering the difference between a delta function and the RVP in a series order of radiative transfer equations, and is generalized to solve the radiative transfer equation in a multi-layer atmosphere. The zeroth-order equation has the forward phase function reduced to the delta function, and the high-order equations successively consider the contribution of the RVP. In this study, the DDO radiative transfer calculation is realized by successive order of scattering approximation and is derived for the multi-layer polarized scenario. By considering the convergences in the orders of both scattering and decomposition, the radiative results are obtained efficiently and accurately as the sum over all order. Finally, numerical simulations are verified using the successive order of scattering method and their accuracy variation associated with orders is discussed.","PeriodicalId":16935,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Quantitative Spectroscopy & Radiative Transfer","volume":"138 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142990272","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study addresses the gaps in understanding how these attenuation effects vary across different rainfall intensities and Drop Size Distributions (DSD). By analytically investigating the irregularities in the cross-sections of raindrops within the 1 to 30 GHz frequency range, the study mentions significant peaks in attenuation at frequencies below 10 GHz, which are more pronounced as DSD changes with rainfall intensity. Using the extinction and efficiency cross-sections of raindrops in 1–30 GHz microwave transmission, the coefficients of rainfall-attenuation correlation were derived for each sector of rainfall intensity of 1–300 mm/hr. Building on these findings, we propose an enhanced rainfall-attenuation relationship, incorporating dynamic coefficients, varying with both factors, DSD and rainfall intensity. Unlike previous models that only suggest calibration of the attenuation-rainfall relationship with DSD, our results indicate that the coefficients should also dynamically adjust based on rainfall intensity. We further demonstrate how these varying coefficients differ from the ITU's recommendations, providing detailed graphical comparisons. This advancement allows for more accurate calculations of rainfall intensity, improving the precision of telecommunication and radar systems in diverse weather conditions.","PeriodicalId":16935,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Quantitative Spectroscopy & Radiative Transfer","volume":"23 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143050017","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
