Statistical model for aerosol size distribution parameters according to weather parameters

摘要

An effort to predict desert coarse aerosol statistics but not size distribution according to simple weather parameters has been made. A quantitative analysis of the desert particulate size distribution models was also performed. In this research the size distribution parameters measured by optical counters are related to weather parameters. Known statistical and analytical models such as MODTRAN relate the size distribution parameters only to relative humidity for continental atmospheres. Although humidity has a significant role in the prediction of aerosol size statistics, other weather parameters can also strongly influence the size distribution parameters. Comparisons such as the above can be used to predict under which conditions the MODTRAN aerosol models have good or poor accuracy. It is also hoped that they will lead to improvements in MODTRAN, improving the accuracy of the humidity dependence as well as by incorporating other meteorological parameters into the MODTRAN prediction models.
