TRANSCRIPT
Modul: Strahlung und Fernerkundung / Atmospheric Radiation and Remote Sensing
Qualifikationsziele: Vermittlung der Grundlagen der atmosphärischen Strahlung und Fernerkundung. Nach erfolgreicher Absolvierung des Moduls sollen die Studierenden mit den Strahlungsprozessen in der Atmosphäre vertraut sein und die Fähigkeit besitzen, grundlegende Strahlungsgrößen berechnen zu können. Inhalte: Schwarzkörperstrahlung, Plancksches Strahlungsgesetz, solare und terrestrische Strahlung, Absorption atmosphärischer Gase, Rayleigh- und Mie-Streuung, Strahlungsbilanz des Systems Erde-Atmosphäre, Fernerkundung atmosphärischer Größen (Moleküle, Aerosole, Wolken, Niederschlag).

Globale Strahlungsbilanz
Radiation Budget
Radiation Budget
• Atmospheric loss ~ -100 Wm-2
• Largely balanced by latent heating → precipitation ~ + 90 Wm-2
• Atmospheric loss is thus a measure of global hydrological cycle
• Factors that affect atmospheric loss will affect the global hydrological cycle - water vapor & clouds (vertical profiles)

A Paleoclimatic Perspective
Paleoclimate information supports the interpretation that the warmth of the last half century is unusual in at least the previous 1300 years. The last time the polar regions were significantly warmer than present for an extended period (about 125,000 years ago), reductions
in polar ice volume led to 4 to 6 metres of sea level rise.

CO2, CH4 and N2O Concentrations
- far exceed pre-industrial values - increased markedly since 1750 due to human activities
Relatively little variation before the industrial era
Human and Natural Drivers of Climate Change
IPCC WG1, 2007
The atmospheric concentration of CO2 and CH4 in 2005 exceeds by far the natural range of the last 650,000 years

Volcanic aerosols
Eruptions are episodic and aerosol effects transitory (1-2 years) IPCC WG1, 2007
Global-average radiative forcing estimates and ranges
IPCC WG1, 2007
Human and natural drivers of climate change
• Annual fossil CO2 emissions increased from an average of 6.4 GtC per year in the 1990s, to 7.2 GtC per year in 2000-2005
• CO2 radiative forcing increased by 20% from 1995 to 2005, the largest in any decade in at least the last 200 years
---------------------------------------------------------------------- • Changes in solar irradiance since 1750 are estimated to
have caused a radiative forcing of +0.12 [+0.06 to +0.30] Wm-2
IPCC WG1, 2007
Human and Natural Drivers of Climate Change
The understanding of anthropogenic warming and cooling influences on climate has improved since the Third Assessment Report (TAR), leading to very high confidence that the globally averaged net effect of human activities since 1750 has been one of warming, with a radiative forcing of +1.6 [+0.6 to +2.4] W m-2.
