1 1ISSI, Bern, 10.12.2012 Summary of First ISSI team meeting on „Characterizing diurnal variations of ozone for improving ozone trend estimates“ (December, 2012)

2 ISSI ozone team ISSI, Bern, 10.12.20122 ISSI: International Space Science Institute, Bern (http://www.issibern.ch/) Team members: Klemens Hocke, University of Bern, Switzerland Niklaus Kämpfer, University of Bern, Switzerland Pawan K. Bhartia, NASA GSFC, USA (Stacey M. Frith came to Bern) Serge Guillas, University College London, UK Neil Harris, University of Cambridge, UK Yasutaka Hiraki, National Institute for Fusion Science, Japan Yasuko Kasai, Remote Sensing Laboratory, NICT, Japan Philippe Keckhut, LATMOS, France Eliane Maillard Barras, MeteoSwiss Payerne, Switzerland Irina Petropavlovskikh, CIRES, NOAA/ESRL/GMD, USA Johannes Staehelin, ETH Zurich, Switzerland Ding Yi Wang, Xi’an Jiao Tong University, China (had no travel money this time) Alan Parrish, University of Massachusetts, USA Makoto Suzuki, JAXA, ISAS, Japan Johanna Tamminen, Finnish Meteorological Institute, Finland (Erkki Kyrölä came to Bern) Young Scientists: Tomohiro Sato, Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan Takatoshi Sakazaki, Hokkaido University, Japan External experts: Alexander Haefele, MeteoSwiss Payerne, Switzerland (had no time because of EU project start) Simone Studer, University of Bern, Switzerland Ansgar Schanz, University of Bern, Switzerland Jeannette Wild, NOAA/NCEP/CPC, USA (contributed via telecon)

3 ISSI, Bern, 10.12.20123 Impression on first day - We did not expect that 99% of the team members came to Bern - A bit stress to manage that each team member can present his/her work Meeting covered the areas: - Satellite observations (NOAA SBUV, ENVISAT/GOMOS, MIPAS) - ISS SMILES experiment (oxygen isotopes and „diurnal chemistry“) - Ground-based microwave radiometry - Total ozone from ground-based Dobson and Brewer instruments - Umkehr ozone profiles - Modelling (WACCM) - Data bases (SI2N: SPARC/IOC/IGACO-O3/NDACC)

4 SOLAR TIDES OF T, U, V, W, P Diurnal Ozone Cycle LUNAR TIDE Daily Cycle of ClOx, NOx, HOx,... Ozone Trend Estimate Errors Natural Variability: Season, Height, Location,... The Alps and Our Problem E. Mörth ISSI, Bern, 10.12.20124 If we want to remove the effect of the daily ozone cycle in satellite observations then we have to consider a lot of other things too...

5 ISSI, Bern, 10.12.20125 Near Scheme is under construction, Simone Studer... just to recall the basic problem and the role of ozone:

7 Basic Problem: SBUV/NOAA orbits are drifting in Local Solar Time Bern, December 2012 Jeannette Wild ISSI, Bern, 10.12.20127

8 8 Stacey Frith, PK, and Alan: Good agreement of the daily ozone cycle in ground-based microwave radiometry and SBUV satellite data

9 ISSI, Bern, 10.12.20129 Progress through observation of diurnal chemistry by SMILES experiment (courtesy of Yasko Kasai):

10 ISSI, Bern, 10.12.201210 (DU) Contour interval: 0.5 DU Diurnal variations in “ozone number density” (10 o S-10 o N average) What causes the semidiurnal variation? Diurnal variations in total column ozone The semidiurnal (half-day-period) variations are caused by the combination of (1) variations at 20-30 km (dynamics) and (2) variations at 30-40 km (photochemistry).

11 ISSI, Bern, 10.12.201211 Main result of ISSI ozone team Progress can be achieved by combination of - satellite observations (SMILES, SBUV,...) - ground-based microwave radiometry - models such as SD-WACCM, UKCA, CTM => communication of modellers and observers is important

12 ISSI, Bern, 10.12.201212 Action items and planned cooperations - more intercomparisons between SMILES, models, and ground stations - UKCA model output (Neil Harris) of monthly-averaged daily ozone cycle at the locations of ground stations (e.g., Bern, Mauna Loa,...) for several years - climatologies of daily ozone cycle (SMILES, GROMOS,...) - make a website for exchange of data and infos (Yasko)
