A model investigation of tropospheric ozone chemical tendencies in long-range transported pollution plumes

Isabelle Bey, Marion Auvray

The impact of continental outflow on the ozone chemical tendencies (i.e., production and loss rates) is quantified in the North Atlantic and northwest Pacific regions using the GEOS-Chem and the MOZECH global models of chemistry and transport. The ozone te ...

Measurement and analysis of aerosols, cirrus-contrails, water vapor and temperature in the upper troposphere with the Jungfraujoch LIDAR system

Ioan Balin

The impact of human activities on the global climate may lead to large disruptions of the economic, social and political status quo in the middle and long term. Understanding the dynamics of the Earth's climate is thus of paramount importance and one of th ...

Ground-based water vapour soundings by microwave radiometry and Raman lidar on Jungfraujoch (Swiss Alps)

Hubert van den Bergh, Valentin Simeonov, Bertrand Calpini, Ioan Balin

Water vapour has been measured from the International Scientific Station Jungfraujoch (ISSJ, 47° N, 7° E, 3580 in above sea level) during the winters of 1999/2000 and 2000/2001 by microwave radiometry and Raman lidar. The abundance of atmospheric water vap ...

The influence of the global photochemical composition of the troposphere on European summer smog, Part I: Application of a global to mesoscale model chain

Isabelle Bey

Elevated mixing ratios of ozone in the lower troposphere are a major summer time air pollution issue in Europe. Photochemical in-situ production is the most important source of ozone in the planetary boundary layer and has been studied extensively. However ...

Raman DIAL measurement of ozone and water vapor in the lower troposphere

Hubert van den Bergh, Valentin Simeonov, Bertrand Calpini, Gilles Larchevêque

A new lidar for the measurement of tropospheric ozone is proposed, based on the differential analysis of the Raman backscattered signals on nitrogen and oxygen, which is far less sensitive to the aerosols than the classical DIAL system. Using a third Raman ...

A Raman differential absorption lidar for ozone and water vapor measurement in the lower troposphere

Hubert van den Bergh, Valentin Simeonov, Bertrand Calpini, Gilles Larchevêque

A new way of measuring ozone and water vapor in the Planetary Boundary Layer (PBL) is proposed. The method is based on the simultaneous measurement of the Raman backscattering in the UV by O2, N2 and H2O, using a single pump beam at 266 nm. The ozone conce ...
