- W4205619399 abstract "<strong class=journal-contentHeaderColor>Abstract.</strong> Although a remarkable reduction in the frequency of sand and dust storms (SDSs) in the past several decades has been reported over northern China (NC), two unexpected mega SDSs occurred on 15â20 and 27â29 March 2021 (abbreviated as the â3.15â and â3.27â SDS events), which has reawakened widespread concern. This study characterizes the optical, microphysical, and radiative properties of aerosols and their meteorological drivers during these two SDS events using the Sun photometer observations in Beijing and a comprehensive set of multiple satellite (including MODIS, VIIRS, CALIOP, and Himawari-8) and ground-based observations (including the CMA visibility network and AD-Net) combined with atmospheric reanalysis data. Moreover, a long-term (2000â2021) dust optical depth (DOD) dataset retrieved from MODIS measurements was also utilized to evaluate the historical ranking of the dust loading in NC during dust events. During the 3.15 and 3.27 events, the invasion of dust plumes greatly degraded the visibility over large areas of NC, with extreme low visibility of 50 and 500âm recorded at most sites on 15 and 28 March, respectively. Despite the shorter duration of the 3.27 event relative to the 3.15 event, sun photometer and satellite observations in Beijing recorded a larger peak AOD (<span class=inline-formula>â¼2.5</span>) in the former than in the latter (<span class=inline-formula>â¼2.0</span>), which was mainly attributed to the short-term intrusion of coarse-mode dust particles with larger effective radii (<span class=inline-formula>â¼1.9</span>â<span class=inline-formula>µm</span>) and volume concentrations (<span class=inline-formula>â¼2.0</span>â<span class=inline-formula>µm<sup>3</sup>âµm<sup>â2</sup></span>) during the 3.27 event. The shortwave direct aerosol radiative forcing induced by dust was estimated to be <span class=inline-formula>â</span>92.1 and <span class=inline-formula>â</span>111.4â<span class=inline-formula>Wâm<sup>â2</sup></span> at the top of the atmosphere, <span class=inline-formula>â</span>184.7 and <span class=inline-formula>â</span>296.2â<span class=inline-formula>Wâm<sup>â2</sup></span> at the surface, and <span class=inline-formula>+</span>92.6 and <span class=inline-formula>+</span>184.8â<span class=inline-formula>Wâm<sup>â2</sup></span> in the atmosphere in Beijing during the 3.15 and 3.27 events, respectively. CALIOP observations show that during the 3.15 event the dust plume was lifted to an altitude of 4â8âkm, and its range of impact extended from the dust source to the eastern coast of China. In contrast, the lifting height of the dust plume during the 3.27 event was lower than that during the 3.15 event, which was also confirmed by ground-based lidar observations. The MODIS-retrieved DOD data registered these two massive SDS events as the most intense episode in the same period in history over the past 2 decades. These two extreme SDS events were associated with both atmospheric circulation extremes and local meteorological anomalies that favored enhanced dust emissions in the Gobi Desert (GD) across southern Mongolia and NC. Meteorological analysis revealed that both SDS events were triggered by an exceptionally strong Mongolian cyclone generated at nearly the same location (along the central and eastern plateau of Inner Mongolia) in conjunction with a surface-level cold high-pressure system at the rear, albeit with differences in magnitude and spatial extent of impact. In the GD, the early melting of spring snow caused by near-surface temperature anomalies over dust source regions, together with negative soil moisture anomalies induced by decreased precipitation, formed drier and barer soil surfaces, which allowed for increased emissions of dust into the atmosphere by strongly enhanced surface winds generated by the Mongolian cyclone." @default.
