CRISTA-NF onboard GEOPHYSICA Limb emission profiles [20 km to ground] Vertical sampling and FOV = 200 m Horizontal sampling = about 12 km SCOUT-O3 in November 2005; SCOUT-AMMA in August 2006

Limb-radiance spectra Cloud Index = radiance MW1 / radiance MW2 Narrow sub-visible cirrus layers frequently encountered Occurence frequency of thin cloud layers (< 1 km) in extra-tropics: ~20 % MW1MW2 CO2 H2O CFC -11 Radiance [W/cm 2 sr cm -1 ] Tangent height [km] Wavenumber [cm -1 ] November 4, 2005; 42 0 N, 16 0 O Spang et al., ASR, 2008

Could observations in sub-tropics Transfer flight from Utapao to Hyderabad Cloud top as well as cloud base detectable Outflow-like layers of very low IWC (~ 0.01 ppmV) Spang et al., ASR, 2008

CRISTA-NF trace gas observations Wavenumber [cm -1 ] Temperature, H2O, Ozone, HNO3, CCl4, PAN (PhD work Katja Weigel) Italy, July 29, 2006 Radiance [W/cm 2 sr cm -1 ]

Italy, July 29, 2006 CRISTA-NF trace gas observations PAN [ppbv]

PAN North South Structure of enhanced PAN values above 12 km altitude in both flight directions (opposite viewing directions) Horizontal extend > 500 km; oriented along LOS

Ozon PAN H 2 O Altitude [km] Corresponding enhancement in other tropospheric trace gases (H2O, CCl4) Time [UTC]

Altitude [km] PAN Ozon Stratospheric trace gases (O3 and HNO3) also show an enhancement This points to a strong influence of mixing Time [UTC]

Effects of mixing clearly show up in correlation plot! (Small FOV and favorable viewing direction) PAN - ozone correlation

Location of mixed area

Time [UTC] Ozone Altitude [km] ECMWF Ozone Observed ozone distribution not well reproduces by ECMWF

Time [UTC] Ozone Altitude [km] ECMWF Ozone CLaMS Ozone The observed structures are well reproduced by CLaMS This is a good basis for on-going analysis

Summary and Outlook High resolution limb emission sounding can provide unique information on cloud and trace gas distribution in the UTLS CRISTA-NF observed an occurence frequency of thin (< 1km) SVC layers of about 20%. Trace gas structures observed over Italy (July 29, 2006) point to a strong influence of mixing. The structures are reasonable reproduced by CLaMS (allowing further diagnoses) Current limb sounders (satellite or aircraft) do not provide high-resolution 3D distribution (3rd dimension is missing).
