http://envam1.env.uea.ac.uk/~e058/envm563.html

Extractions: Atmospheric physics is a cornerstone of the study of the Earth's climate system. This introductory unit will provide an integrated approach to atmospheric physics via links with meteorology, oceanography and atmospheric chemistry. Identify the physical processes that govern atmospheric physics Formulate physical and mathematical models of these physical processes Apply these models to find quantitative solutions to atmospheric physics problems, in the fields of meteorology, oceanography, and atmospheric chemistry Analyse and interpret these solutions to environmental problems Design and conduct experiments to test these models and analyse the observed data. Critically assess these physical models using observed data A lecture course will introduce the physical concepts and equations of atmospheric physics. Students will be expected to expand on this material through reading of the recommended text books and the research literature. Practical work will involve data analysis and problem solving, and students will work together in group seminars. 10 credits. Taught in second half of semester I, weeks 7-12 (DL slot).

NEW THINKING NEEDED ON atmospheric physics, STUDY SUGGESTS BalloonExperiments Reveal New Information About Sprites. HOUSTON, Oct.
http://www.uh.edu/admin/media/nr/102002/beringsprites100702.html

Extractions: Balloon Experiments Reveal New Information About Sprites Sprites are large, brief flashes of light that occur very high in the atmosphere above large thunderstorms. Instead of discharging toward the earth like lightning, sprites soar upward above a thunderstorm and occur immediately following strong lightning strokes. The layers of the atmosphere consist of the troposphere, which extends from the ground to about nine miles up; the stratosphere, beginning just above the troposphere and extending to 31 miles high; the mesosphere, extending from the stratosphere to about 53 miles high; and the thermosphere, extending beyond the mesosphere to about 372 miles. Bering and his colleagues also found that negative cloud to ground strokes produce a phenomenon that is not often observed from the ground, termed a sprite halo, which is basically a sprite precursor.

Extractions: Previous Story ... Related Stories Next Story Source: University Of Houston Date: HOUSTON, Oct. 14, 2002 An atmospheric phenomenon called "sprites" could be pumping 50 times more energy into the upper atmosphere than was previously thought, suggesting our understanding of the global atmosphere is incomplete, according to University of Houston space physicists. Sprites are large, brief flashes of light that occur very high in the atmosphere above large thunderstorms. Instead of discharging toward the earth like lightning, sprites soar upward above a thunderstorm and occur immediately following strong lightning strokes. University of Houston physics professors Edgar Bering and James Benbrook, along with their students, collected sprite data during a balloon campaign in the summer of 1999 when several balloons equipped with special detectors flew high into the atmosphere around 20 miles up over Texas and Iowa. The experiments were intended to study the electromagnetic signature of the lightning strokes that produce sprites.

The group has field stations on the summit of Great Den Fell in Cumbria and Holme Moss in the south Pennines. The group also supervises the new BAE 146 aircraft which is the major UK platform for airborne atmospheric research. In addition, we have our own Cessna light aircraft for studies in the atmospheric boundary layer. A number of the major research areas are listed below but there is considerable overlap in the use of equipment and personnel. Many of the projects involve fieldwork both in the UK and abroad. Aerosol Physics and Chemistry The major thrust of this work is to investigate the ageing processes of pollution aerosol in the atmosphere, its interaction with cloud and its wet and dry deposition. This work is applied both to the health effects of atmospheric aerosol and more especially to its role in regulating climate change through the direct and indirect radiative forcing. This work is based around state of the art aerosol mass spectrometry.

Extractions: As atmospheric physicists stand at the door to the next century, what do they see? William Cooper, a scientist at the National Science Foundation (NSF)-funded National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colorado, will give a preview on Tuesday, May 30, at the American Geophysical Union's spring meeting at the Baltimore Convention Center. Whether predicting climate change over the next century, forecasting the week's weather, or warning an airplane of icing ahead, atmospheric scientists are eager to improve their computer models. To do so, they first must solve key problems of atmospheric physics. "Even when the underlying physics is clear," explains Cooper, "it's the complex interaction between these key problem areas that will make predictions difficult and create the greatest challenges in the years ahead." Following is his list of the main problems facing atmospheric physicists in the coming years. Key Problem Areas: · Radiation: As scientists study to what extent solar energy is reflected off or absorbed by water, chemicals, dust, and other components in the earth's atmosphere, they are still finding surprises. A particular goal of current research is to find ways of representing in computer models the effects of clouds and aerosols on the earth's radiation budget.

Extractions: Find a Paper Comment on a Paper Submit a Manuscript Subscription and Charges ... Special Issues Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics (ACP) is an international scientific journal dedicated to the publication and discussion of high quality studies investigating the Earth's atmosphere and the underlying chemical and physical processes. ACP has an innovative two-stage publication process which involves a scientific discussion forum and exploits the full potential of the internet to In the first stage, papers that pass a rapid access peer-review are immediately published on the Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics Discussions (ACPD) website. They are then subject to interactive public discussion, during which the referees' comments (anonymous or attributed), additional short comments by other members of the scientific community (attributed) and the authors' replies are also published in ACPD. In the second stage, the peer-review process is completed and final revised papers are published in ACP. To ensure publication precedence for authors, and to provide a lasting record of scientific discussion, ACPD and ACP are both ISSN-registered, permanently archived and fully citable.
