Exposure to ultrafine aerosol particles (UFPs) can cause adverse effects on human health, local environment and climate. Air traffic is associated with the emission of high numbers of UFPs, which results in increased UFP number concentrations close to airports. So far, the spatial distribution and variability of UFPs is poorly understood in the atmospheric boundary layer. The uncrewed aerial system (UAS) ALADINA (Application of Lightweight Aircraft for Detecting In-situ Aerosols, e.g. Altstädter et al., 2015) was operated close to the largest airport in Germany at Frankfurt airport (FRA) between 11 and 19 October 2024. The dataset provides airborne in-situ observations of the spatial distribution of aerosol particle number concentration with different sizes and meteorological parameters of temperature, humidity, wind, surface temperature and short-wave irradiance, as well as accurate position and orientation of ALADINA. Data are available from 26 measurement flights, comprising a number of 122 vertical profiles between ground and a maximum altitude of 750 m above mean sea level (ASL) and about 70 horizontal legs at different but constant altitude, e.g. in 100 m altitude intervals. Details about the ALADINA measurements will be provided in a publication (Harm-Altstädter et al., in prep.) soon.
During the BALTIC'15 campaign in August 2015 over the Southern Baltic Sea, measurements of chemical composition and vacuum-aerodynamic diameter of individual aerosol particles were conducted by the Aircraft-based laser ablation aerosol mass spectrometer (ALABAMA) operated by the Max Planck Institute for Chemistry (Particle Chemistry Department). Measurements were performed on board the Alfred Wegener Institute research aircraft Polar 5. Four research flights were conducted: - Scientific flight 1 (SF1) on August 26, 2015 - Scientific flight 2 (SF2) on August 28, 2015 - Scientific flight 3 (SF3) on August 28, 2015 - Scientific flight 5 (SF4) on August 30, 2015. The data set contains sampling time, location, identified particle types, and particle size (if available). For detailed information on data processing and particle type characterization, please refer to the publication by Zanatta et al. (2019) or contact the authors: Franziska Köllner (f.koellner@mpic.de) and Johannes Schneider (Johannes.schneider@mpic.de).
Aerosol Index (AI) as derived from TROPOMI observations. AI is an indicator for episodic aerosol plumes from dust outbreaks, volcanic ash, and biomass burning. The TROPOMI instrument onboard the Copernicus SENTINEL-5 Precursor satellite is a nadir-viewing, imaging spectrometer that provides global measurements of atmospheric properties and constituents on a daily basis. It is contributing to monitoring air quality and climate, providing critical information to services and decision makers. The instrument uses passive remote sensing techniques by measuring the top of atmosphere solar radiation reflected by and radiated from the earth and its atmosphere. The four spectrometers of TROPOMI cover the ultraviolet (UV), visible (VIS), Near Infra-Red (NIR) and Short Wavelength Infra-Red (SWIR) domains of the electromagnetic spectrum. The operational trace gas products generated at DLR on behave ESA are: Ozone (O3), Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2), Sulfur Dioxide (SO2), Formaldehyde (HCHO), Carbon Monoxide (CO) and Methane (CH4), together with clouds and aerosol properties. This product is created in the scope of the project INPULS. It develops (a) innovative retrieval algorithms and processors for the generation of value-added products from the atmospheric Copernicus missions Sentinel-5 Precursor, Sentinel-4, and Sentinel-5, (b) cloud-based (re)processing systems, (c) improved data discovery and access technologies as well as server-side analytics for the users, and (d) data visualization services.
Gridded Level 3 SO2 total column densities derived from the Metop/GOME-2-instruments. Volcanoes are the largest soures of SO2 in the atmosphere, depending on the erruption the Sulfurous compounds can be injected into stratosphere but in most cases it stays within the troposphere. Another important source is the coal combustion. Desulfurisation facilities within the power stations have reduced the sulfur emissions around the globe. In the stratosphere sulfur is a key component for building up aerosols, which reflect parts of the solar irradiation. The total SO2 column is retrieved from GOME solar back-scattered measurements in the ultraviolet wavelength region [using the DOAS method]. Depending on the plume SO2 can be a very strong absorber, because of that the ODAS retrieval might have some smaller issues, they can be reduced by choosing different wavelenght ranges depending on the signal. We apply three different fitting windows between 310 and 360nm. For the AMF, we assume a plumeheight of 6 km altitude. The Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment-2 (GOME-2) instrument continues the long-term monitoring of atmospheric trace gas constituents started with GOME / ERS-2 and SCIAMACHY / Envisat. Three instruments operate on board EUMETSAT's Meteorological Operational satellites MetOp-A, -B, and -C, launched in 2006, 2012, and 2018, respectively. GOME-2 measures a range of atmospheric trace constituents, with the emphasis on global ozone distribution. Furthermore, cloud properties and intensities of ultraviolet radiation are retrieved. These data are crucial for monitoring the atmospheric composition and the detection of pollutants. DLR generates operational GOME-2 / MetOp products in the framework of EUMETSAT's Satellite Application Facility on Atmospheric Composition Monitoring (AC-SAF).
Im Rahmen des Projektes soll der spektrale Extinktionskoeffizient des unbeeinflussten atmosphärischen Aerosols bei 3 Wellenlängen (405, 532, 850 nm) mit einem neu entwickelten portablen SAEMS (Spectral Aerosol Extinction Monitoring System) in Kombination mit einem Ramanlidar untersucht werden. Dieses Fernmessverfahren soll weltweit in ausgewählten Quellregionen mit charakteristischen, unterschiedlichen Aerosoltypen (marines Aerosol, Mineralstaubaerosol, Biomasseverbrennungsaerosol) und natürlichen Aerosolmischungen eingesetzt werden. Das Messsystem wird mit Feuchte- und Temperatursensoren ausgestattet sein damit speziell auch die Änderung der optischen Eigenschaften der atmosphärischen Partikel bei realistischen Umgebungsfeuchtebedingungen erfasst wird. Die Wegstreckenauswahl dieses Aufbaus wird für die jeweiligen Aerosolbedingungen optimiert (horizontale Messstreckenlänge 1-3 km, 10-20 m über dem Boden). Die hygroskopischen Eigenschaften des Aerosols im Umgebungsfeuchtebereich sollen spezifisch für den jeweiligen Einsatzort bestimmt werden und eine aerosoltypabhängige Parametrisierung erarbeitet werden. Ziel ist langfristig die Charakterisierung der Aerosolsäule durch Kombination von bodengebundenen in-situ Methoden und Fernmessverfahren und sowie eine systematische Untersuchung des Feuchteeinflusses auf die aerosoloptischen Eigenschaften. Dazu soll die automatisierte Ermittlung des Extinktionskoeffizienten im bodennahen Bereich in den kontinuierlichen Messbetrieb der mobilen Landstation LACROS (Leipzig Aerosol and Cloud Remote Observations System) des TROPOS integriert werden. Derartige Untersuchungen sind von großer Wichtigkeit für die Klimamodellierung (Parametrisierung der Strahlungswechselwirkung von Aerosolen) sowie der Synthese der aktiven Fernerkundung (Bestimmung der optischen Eigenschaften der Aerosolsäule) und der mikrophysikalischen Eigenschaften durch in-situ Bodenmessungen.

Der asiatische Sommermonsun ist charakterisiert durch hohe Konvektion über Südasien, die mit der asiatischen Monsun-Antizyklone (AMA) zusammenhängt, der sich von der oberen Troposphäre bis in die untere Stratosphäre (UTLS) erstreckt. Diese Antizyclone ist das ausgeprägteste Zirkulationsmuster in diesen Höhen während des borealen Sommer. Es ist bekannt, dass der Export von Monsunluft quasi-isentropisch aus der AMA sowohl im Osten als auch im Westen, einen großen Einfluss auf die Zusammensetzung der außertropischen unteren Stratosphäre hat. Jedoch sind die relative Stärken der beiden Wege bisher unbekannt. Der Transport von Luftmassen aus der AMA in die nördliche außertropische UTLS wirkt sich entscheidend auf die Chemie der Stratosphäre und ihrenStrahlungshaushalt (z.B. durch Transport von H2O, Aerosol oder ozonschädigende Stoffe) aus. Im Rahmen dieses Projekts AirExam wird der quasi-isentropischer Luftmassenexport aus der AMA durch verschiedene Wegen und seine Auswirkungen auf Chemie und Strahlung der außertropische UTLS quantifiziert durch u.a. HALO-Flugzeugmessungen (insbesondere aus die für Sommer 2023 geplanten PHILEAS-Kampagne), Simulationen mit dem Chemischen Transportmodell CLaMS und Strahlungsberechnungen. Unser Projekt AirExam wird sich mit den folgenden offenen Schlüsselfragen befassen:1) Welchen relativen Beitrag leisten die beiden quasi-horizontalen Transportwege (nach Westen und Osten) aus dem asiatischen Monsun-Antizyklon zur Zusammensetzung der außertropischen unteren Stratosphäre?2) Wie groß ist die jährliche Variabilität des Transports aus der asiatischen Monsun-Antizyklone in die außertropische untere Stratosphäre und was sind die Hauptquellenregionen auf der Erde Oberfläche?3) Was ist die Auswirkung des Wasserdampftransports aus der asiatischen Monsun-Antizyklone zum H2O-Budget der außertropischen UTLS und seine Strahlungswirkung?In unserem Projekt werden wir HALO-Messungen (insbesondere H2O) mit globalen 3-dimensionalen CLaMS-Simulationen kombinieren, die von neuen hochaufgelösten ERA-5-Reanalyse des ECMWF angetrieben werden. CLaMS-Simulationen auf der Grundlage von ERA-5 sind ein neues Instrument zur zuverlässigen Beschreibung von Transportprozessen in der Region des asiatischen Monsuns und seiner globalen Auswirkungen. Die Strahlungswirkung des durch den asiatischen Monsun verursachten H2O-Anstiegs im Sommer und Herbst wird mit Hilfe des Strahlungs-Transfercodes Edwards und Slingo berechnet. H2O ist das wichtigste Treibhausgas, und die Befeuchtung der Stratosphäre ist eine wichtige Triebkraft des Klimawandels. Unser Projekt AirExam wird die Auswirkungen des verstärkten H2O-Transports in die untere Stratosphäre quantifizieren und kann daher dazu beitragen, die potenziellen Risiken des Luftmassentransports aus der asiatischen Monsunregion auf die globale Stratosphäre zu bewerten.

This product displays the Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) near surface concentration for Germany and neighboring countries as derived from the POLYPHEMUS/DLR air quality model. Surface NO2 is mainly generated by anthropogenic sources, e.g. transport and industry. POLYPHEMUS/DLR is a state-of-the-art air quality model taking into consideration - meteorological conditions, - photochemistry, - anthropogenic and natural (biogenic) emissions, - TROPOMI NO2 observations for data assimilation. This Level 4 air quality product (surface NO2 at 15:00 UTC) is based on innovative algorithms, processors, data assimilation schemes and operational processing and dissemination chain developed in the framework of the INPULS project. The DLR project INPULS develops (a) innovative retrieval algorithms and processors for the generation of value-added products from the atmospheric Copernicus missions Sentinel-5 Precursor, Sentinel-4, and Sentinel-5, (b) cloud-based (re)processing systems, (c) improved data discovery and access technologies as well as server-side analytics for the users, and (d) data visualization services.
