- W177598169 abstract "During the year covered by this proposal we conducted work on several different topics, as reflected by our publications listed below. One major activity was to work with a group of about 10 scientists from around the country to prepare a science-planning document (Tropical Composition, Cloud and Climate Coupling Experiment (TC4)) that outlined the rationale, locations, strategy to accomplish the goals, and possible payloads for a set of three tropical missions. We also prepared background materials for various NRAs being prepared at NASA Headquarters for missions in Costa Rica, Darwin and Guam. Unfortunately budgetary constraints prevented these missions from moving forward. In conjunction with the group NASA Ames we built a new numerical model for deep convection and have applied that model to simulate the CRYSTAL isotope data. Our goal in particular has been to better understanding how convection distributes water vapor isotopes. CRYSTAL observations of water isotopes are very different from those suggested by previous workers who assumed the isotopes would obey Rayleigh fractionation. The water isotope study has several implications. First it is a check on the realism of the deep convection model. Second, the isotopes are a measure of the precipitation removal in the atmosphere. Hence they provide a constraint on a parameter that is difficult to otherwise measure. Finally it has been suggested that isotopes may be the key to unraveling the water transport into the stratosphere and upper troposphere. Such transport is critical both for the radiation balance and for stratospheric chemistry. Ours is the first model that is able to treat this transport. Our initial results are now in press in Geophys. Res. Lett. Essentially we are able to explain the vertical profiles of isotopes in the tropical tropopause transition layer. We are also able to account for stratospheric humidity ana isotope abundances with this model. The data suggest that isotopes do not provide a clear constraint on the mechanism by which water enters the stratosphere- whether by convection, or by slow ascent. Our work is relevant for the water isotope comparison experiments recently done by NASA. We are conducting numerical experiments related to this project to help understand that data." @default.
