The radiative transfer model (RT3), a vector radiative transfer (VRT) scheme in a plane-parallel atmosphere, was bounded by a rough ocean surface in this study. The boundary problem was solved using a Fourier series decomposition of the radiation field as a function of the azimuth. For the case of a rough ocean surface, the decomposition was obtained by developing both the Fresnel reflection matrix and the probability distribution of the water facet orientation as Fourier series. The effect of shadowing by ocean surface waves was also considered in the boundary condition. The VRT model can compute the intensity and degree of polarization of the light at the top of the atmosphere (TOA), the ocean surface, and any level of the atmosphere in the ocean-atmosphere system. The results obtained by our model are in good agreement with those computed by Ahmad’s model. The simulated results showed that the shadow effects of wave facets on the intensity and the degree of polarization are negligible except at the ocean surface near the grazing angle, possibly because we did not consider the effect of white caps.
利用Cloud-Aerosol Li DAR with Orthogonal Polarization(CALIOP)正交极化云—气溶胶激光雷达资料、Aerosol Robotic Network(AERONET)气溶胶观测资料、地面常规气象观测资料和Hybrid Single-Particle Lagrangian Integrated Trajectory(HYSPLIT)模式分析了2013年1月份华北地区的3次中重度灰霾天气过程,着重对灰霾天气过程中大气气溶胶的衰减后向散射系数、退偏比和色比等光学参数的垂直分布进行了研究。结果表明,2013年1月份华北地区灰霾天气发生时,低层大气(2 km)以下污染最严重,存在大量的气溶胶粒子。1月29日重度灰霾时气溶胶的后向散射系数增大至0.0045 km-1·sr-1,退偏比大于20%,0—8 km高度范围内的色比值大于100%的比例约为36.3%;气溶胶光学厚度从0.2增大至2.1,Angstrom指数由1.4降至0.9,表明气溶胶光学厚度增加的同时,大气中混合的粗粒子气溶胶比重增加。HYSPLIT后向轨迹模拟结果显示:500 m、1000 m和1500 m 3个高度的气流均途经蒙古国、中国内蒙古自治区、西北地区,最后影响华北地区,表明这次灰霾污染事件除受本地排放的气溶胶粒子影响,还受到源于蒙古国、内蒙古、中国西北部地区远程输送的沙尘影响。
