项目摘要

This project supports student travel to the American Geophysical Union's Chapman Conference entitled, 'Stratospheric aerosol during the past 20 years: Processes sustaining the aerosol, interactions with climate and chemistry, and importance for historical analogues.' This conference provides a venue for the world's leading observational and modeling experts in stratospheric aerosol and precursor gases to present and discuss results focused on major science questions related to the character and processes controlling stratospheric aerosol during the quiescent to mildly volcanic period of 1996 to the present. The broader impacts of the conference will derive from the exchange of ideas that will help focus the research community on the processes controlling stratospheric aerosol, and provide an opportunity for young scientists to meet, network, and exchange ideas with leaders in the field. The intellectual challenges addressed by the meeting participants include: (1) Comparing and resolving measurements of stratospheric aerosol and gas phase sulfur from different platforms; (2) Deriving aerosol surface area, cross section, and asymmetry parameter from remote satellite measurements of optical properties; (3) Establishing the accuracy of the geophysical quantities derived from remote optical measurements; and (4) Extrapolating measurements of aerosol and gas phase climatologies to regions and time periods not measured. Topics at this meeting will contribute significantly to establish confidence in the aerosol climatologies used and in providing a basis against which models with intrinsic aerosol can be tested.

该项目支持学生参加美国地球物理联盟查普曼会议，题为“过去 20 年的平流层气溶胶：维持气溶胶的过程、与气候和化学的相互作用以及对历史类比的重要性”。本次会议为世界领先的平流层气溶胶和前体气体观测和模拟专家提供了一个场所，以展示和讨论与 1996 年至今平流层气溶胶的特征和控制过程相关的重大科学问题的成果。会议的更广泛影响将源自思想交流，这将有助于研究界将重点放在控制平流层气溶胶的过程上，并为年轻科学家提供与该领域的领导者会面、建立联系和交流思想的机会。与会者提出的智力挑战包括：（1）比较和解决不同平台平流层气溶胶和气相硫的测量结果； (2) 从光学特性的遥感卫星测量中推导出气溶胶表面积、横截面和不对称参数； (3) 确定远程光学测量得出的地球物理量的准确性； (4) 将气溶胶和气相气候的测量结果外推至未测量的区域和时间段。本次会议的主题将极大地有助于建立对所使用的气溶胶气候学的信心，并为测试具有内在气溶胶的模型提供基础。
