冰-气反馈对大气特性的依赖性

The dependence of the ice-albedo feedback on atmospheric properties

摘要:

冰-陆反馈对类地行星的气候具有潜在的重要的去稳定作用。它是基于地面温度下降、冰雪覆盖增加和行星覆盖度相关增加之间的正反馈,然后进一步降低地面温度。最近的一项研究表明,对于M星,冰-冰反馈的强度降低了。这项研究调查了大气(在表面压力和大气成分方面)对这种反馈的影响。本文采用平行平面辐射转移模式计算行星的辐射。我们改变了CO2分压以及大气中的H2O,CH 4和O3含量的行星绕太阳和M型恒星。结果表明,与类太阳恒星周围的行星相比,M恒星周围的行星的冰-冰效应显著降低。包括大气层的影响进一步抑制了对冰丘效应的敏感性。大气的关键特性,如表面压力,以及大量的辐射性痕量气体,都可以大大改变冰-气反馈的强度。对于数巴到数十巴的稠密二氧化碳大气,大气而不是表面特性开始主导行星辐射预算。在高CO2压力下,M恒星周围的行星的冰反馈强烈减少。大气中微量的H2O和CH 4的存在也削弱了这两种恒星类型的冰-水效应。对于类太阳恒星周围的行星,在高CO2压力下,O3也可能导致冰-水反馈非常强烈的减少。(节略)

英文摘要:

The ice-albedo feedback is a potentially important de-stabilizing effect for the climate of terrestrial planets. It is based on the positive feedback between decreasing surface temperatures, an increase of snow and ice cover and an associated increase in planetary albedo, which then further decreases surface temperature. A recent study shows that for M stars, the strength of the ice-albedo feedback is reduced This study investigates the influence of the atmosphere (in terms of surface pressure and atmospheric composition) for this feedback. A plane-parallel radiative transfer model is used for the calculation of planetary albedos. We varied CO2 partial pressures as well as the H2O, CH4, and O3 content in the atmosphere for planets orbiting Sun-like and M-type stars. Results suggest that for planets around M stars, the ice-albedo effect is significantly reduced, compared to planets around Sun-like stars. Including the effects of an atmosphere further suppresses the sensitivity to the ice-albedo effect. Atmospheric key properties such as surface pressure, but also the abundance of radiative trace gases can considerably change the strength of the ice-albedo feedback. For dense CO2 atmospheres of the order of a few to tens of bar, atmospheric rather than surface properties begin to dominate the planetary radiation budget. At high CO2 pressures, the ice-albedo feedback is strongly reduced for planets around M stars. The presence of trace amounts of H2O and CH4 in the atmosphere also weakens the ice-albedo effect for both stellar types considered. For planets around Sun-like stars, O3 could also lead to a very strong decrease of the ice-albedo feedback at high CO2 pressures. (abridged)
