Luo (Georgia Institute of Technology) Seasonal Variation of Nitrogen Oxides at Northern Midlatitudes as Inferred from Ground- and Satellite-based Observations Lok Lamsal, Randall Martin, Aaron van Donkelaar Folkert Boersma, Ruud Dirksen (KNMI) Edward Celarier, Eric Bucsela, James Gleason (NASA, GSFC) 28.07.2009 MOCA-09, Montreal, July 19-29

2 Substantial Seasonal Difference in Tropospheric NO 2 Columns: Example from GOME van Noije, ACP, 2006 Retrievals from University of Bremen, Dalhousie/SAO, BIRA/KNMI Difference in winter up to a factor of 2 Monthly tropospheric NO 2 columns over Eastern U.S. from three independent retrievals (71-90W, 35-43N) Uni Bremen BIRA/KNMI Dalhousie/SAO

3 Large Seasonal Difference in Tropospheric NO 2 Columns Among OMI Retrievals How does the actual seasonal variation look like? Which one is closer to reality? What causes the observed difference? What drives the seasonal variation? Research Questions: Monthly tropospheric NO 2 columns over the United States from OMI Standard Product (SP) DOMINO Product (DP) DP_GC  DOMINO product with stripes correction and GEOS-Chem NO 2 profiles Modified DP (DP_GC)

4 Comparison of OMI NO 2 with Surface Measurements, (B) Derive surface-level NO 2 from OMI (Lamsal et al., 2008, JGR) (A) In-situ surface NO 2 measurements from the SEARCH and EPA/AQS networks (Rural sites only)  × SEARCH (3) EPA/AQS (8)

5 Comparison of OMI-derived Emission with Bottom-up Inventory (B) Derive top-down emissions from OMI (Martin et al., 2003, JGR) (A) Updated bottom-up emission inventories VISTAS 2002 and CAC 2005 (North America) EMEP 2005 (Europe) Street 2006 (East Asia)

6 Summary of Comparison - Validation of OMI Tropospheric NO 2 SEARCH domainNorth America SEARCH, Southeastern U.S.AQS/EPA, U.S.
