Remote sensing estimation of aerosol composition and radiative effects in haze days[J]. Journal of Remote Sensing, 2013,17(4):1021-1031. DOI: 10.11834/jrs.20133080.
physical properties in Beijing city in January of 2013 based on ground-based remote sensing data
and used radiative transfer model to estimate aerosol radiative forcing. The results show that water-soluble Aerosol Optical Depth ( AOD) increases rapidly in haze days
and contributes most to the total AOD ( > 70% )
black carbon aerosol AOD increases also in haze days
which is about eight times larger than clear days. The direct radiative forcing caused by aerosol is significant
but different aerosol compositions have different effects. Black carbon dominatesforcing in the atmosphere ( > 57% )
while water-soluble dominates in surface forcing( > 60% ) .
