Aerosol chemistry, transport and climatic implications during extreme biomass burning emissions over Indo-Gangetic Plain

Abstract: 13The large-scale emissions of airborne particulates from burning of agricultural residues particularly 14 over the upper Indo-Gangetic Plain (IGP) have often been associated with frequent formation of haze, 43Atmos. Chem. Phys. Discuss., https://doi

“…The IGP is accompanied with more UV‐absorbing aerosols (spatial mean: 0.74), especially over the upper IGP (>0.75), whereas no such dominance in absorbing aerosols is noted over SEA (spatial mean: 0.07). Presence of absorbing aerosols over upper part of the IGP overlaps well with the region that accounts for the emissions of carbonaceous aerosols from burning of crop residues (Jethva et al., 2019; Singh et al., 2018; Vinjamuri et al., 2020). Spatial variations in AAOD, a reliable indicator of absorbing aerosols, are not evident across IGP and SEA as both the regions account for a low spatial mean (0.06) during haze dominated period.…”

“…However, it should be noted that atmospheric haze was not defined here on a daily basis constrain by the fact that we did not account for ground‐level PM 2.5 concentration and visibility data, and CALIPSO has a revisit period in each 16 days. Across IGP, there are evidences of greater incidence of hazy days with very high aerosol concentration during October to November (Thomas et al., 2019), influenced mainly by the burning of agricultural residues (Jethva et al., 2019; Singh et al., 2018). From December to February, haze episodes are mostly accompanied with the burning of biomass/waste/refuse, that are frequently practiced for residential heating and cooking purposes (Singh et al., 2021b).…”

“…This fully-coupled model represents a significant advancement over the offline WRF-CMAQ system (Byun and Schere, 2006). That is mainly because the former expands to encompass aerosol-radiation interactions to which OBB and OCSB should be closely related Huang et al, 2016;Baró et al, 2017;Li et al, 2017b;Singh et al, 2018;Malavelle et al, 2019). In addition, the newly developed coupler helps to improve the consistency between WRF and CMAQ with regard to meteorological 140 characteristics (Wong et al, 2012).…”

“…The AAI is calculated using a ratio of satellite-observed top-of-atmosphere radiances at two UV wavelengths to observe the spectral contrast created by aerosol absorption. Past studies have applied the AAI to study biomass burning (e.g., Singh et al, 2018;Vadrevu et al, 2015;Zhuravleva et al, 2017) and dust aerosols (e.g., Badarinath et al, 2010;Huang et al, 2010;Zhang et al, 2017). While the AAI is primarily a measure of aerosol absorption, scattering aerosols cause a net decrease in the AAI.…”
