摘要:

1993年中国南极中山站(69°22'S,76°22'E)的一台波长为0.694μm的激光雷达对平流层进行了53次探测,从激光大气回波信号计算出平流层气溶胶后向散射比的垂直分布和12~30km高度范围内的积分后向散射系数。探测结果表明因受菲律宾Pinatubo火山爆发的影响,1993年南极地区平流层气溶胶粒子含量比1990年明显增加,证实了南极冬季平流层云的存在。平流层气溶胶为两层结构,12km附近高度上始终存在着一层厚度为数公里的气溶胶层,25km附近高度的一层变化较大。

Abstract:

A Lidar system (694nm) was used to measure the stratospheric aerosol at Zhongshan Station(69°22′S, 76°22′E) in 1993. The Lidar data presented in this paper were obtained between March 27 and November 5,1993. A total of 53 times of Lidar observations was made over the 9 month period.In this paper we present Lidar observations of the vertical profiles of the stratospheric aerosol backscattering ratio and the integrated backscatter coefficients over the 12-30km altitude range. The observations show that the stratospheric aerosol particulate matter noticeably enhanced in 1993 than that in 1990 due to Mt. Pinatubo eruption in Philippines in June 1991. We presented the seasonal variation of the integrated backscatter coefficient(IBC). The mean value for each observation period is plotted in Fig.2. The noticeable maximum of IBC is easily found in winter season from curve in Fig 2. Maximum value of IBC is 3.4×10 -3 (sr -1 ). Polar Stratospheric Clouds(PSCs) are observed from late May until September.The vertical profiles of the stratospheric aerosol backscattering ratio in Antarctica show a clear double layer structure, one layer is at a altitude of about 12km, another is at a altitude of about 25km. In this paper we analyze the vertical structure of backscattering ratio.
