1 ATMOSPHERIC RADIATIVE TRANSFER Fall 2009 EAS 8803 Instructor: Prof. Irina N. Sokolik Office 3104, phone Meeting Time: Tuesdays/Thursday: 1:35-2:55 PM Meeting place: L1175 Office hours: by appointment What this course is about The atmospheric radiative transfer is central to understanding the workings of the Earth s climate system. This course covers the physical principles, quantitative analysis, and numerical modeling of atmospheric radiation and its interaction with atmospheric constituents (gases, aerosol, and clouds) and the land and ocean surfaces. The topics to be covered include the radiative balance at the surface, radiative forcing at the top of the atmosphere, radiative heating/cooling rates and their role in the atmospheric dynamics and thermodynamics, actinic fluxes, PAR, methods for solving the one- and three-dimensional radiative transfer, radiation codes in regional and global atmospheric dynamical models, among others. Prerequisites: EAS Remote Sensing classes or prior experience in radiative transfer are required. This is an advanced graduate level course. 1
2 How this course is organized: Lectures: Lectures are developed to provide the most critical material and to complement a class textbook. Lecture notes will be posted (in PDF format) at the course website: Please review lecture materials before coming to the class. Homework assignments will include problem solutions, radiative transfer numerical modeling, radiation data analysis, and literature review. Class research project The goal will be to perform the radiative transfer modeling and interpretation of the results in a well-defined problem. This will involve learning how to run a radiative transfer code selected for the project. Class project presentation is required at the end of the term. Exams: Two midterm exams, but no final exam. Grading: Mid-term exams (2) 30% Homeworks/Numerical RT modeling 40% Research Project 30% Required Text: K.N. Liou An Introduction to Atmospheric Radiation, 2002 (Second Edition).
