Dust-Climate Interactions in HadGEM2 Stephanie Woodward Met Office Hadley Centre

A dust scheme for climate modelling needs to - work globally (including areas not currently sources) - respond to changing climate and so must - work from model-generated fields - be physically realistic.

Outline of HadGEM dust scheme 6 size bins of aerosol.03 – 30 um radius, treated independantly Interactive emission scheme Transport as 6 model tracers Dry deposition through gravitational settling and turbulent mixing in BL Wet deposition, scavenging coefficients from obs Resistance analogue method of combining deposition processes Radiative properties from medians of range of measurements * Volken & Schumann 1993, Water, Air & Soil Pollution 68

Emission scheme Soil: 9 size bins um diameter Horizontal flux : Marticorena & Bergametti (bare soil fraction only) U* corrected for scaling effects U* t = U* t (dry,impact) x f (CorrectedSoilMoisture) f - Fecan scheme, modified at high soil moistures Vertical flux: only um range total flux from log (F/G)=.134(%clay)-6 (M&B, based on Iversen data) size distribution from that of horiz. flux below 60um
