提高地球反照率:海洋中的Köhler方程

Increasing the Earth's Albedo: The Köhler Equation at Sea

J. I. Katz

AI总结:

本研究将Köhler方程应用于海洋边界层小液滴,计算含溶解离子液滴的平衡尺寸,发现海水液滴达平衡前半径大幅收缩,为通过造海洋霾云提高地球反照率、抵消温室效应提供理论参考。

摘要:

增加海洋霾和云已被视为提高地球反照率的一种可能途径。这将减少太阳加热和全球变暖,抵消人为温室气体增加带来的影响。人们提出的一种实现方法是向海洋边界层注入小海水液滴或凝结核,以制造人工霾和云。这类液滴的平衡尺寸由Köhler(科勒)方程描述,该方程包含了根据拉乌尔定律由溶质导致的蒸气压降低,以及根据开尔文定律由表面张力导致的小液滴蒸气压升高。本文将这一经典结论应用于海洋边界层中的小液滴——由于与含盐海洋处于平衡状态,这里的水蒸气分压低于平衡蒸气压。我们计算了含溶解离子的液滴的平衡尺寸,发现海水液滴的半径在达到平衡前会大幅收缩。

英文摘要:

Increasing marine haze and clouds has been considered as a possible means of increasing the Earth's albedo. This would reduce Solar heating and global warming, counteracting the effects of the anthropogenic increase in greenhouse gases. One proposed method of doing so would inject small droplets of seawater or condensation nuclei into the marine boundary layer, creating artificial haze and cloud. The equilibrium size of such droplets is described by the Köhler equation that includes the vapor pressure reduction attributable to the solute according to Raoult's law and the vapor pressure increase of a small droplet as a result of surface tension according to Kelvin. Here we apply this classic result to small droplets in the marine boundary layer, where the partial pressure of water vapor is less than the equilibrium vapor pressure because it is in equilibrium with the saline ocean. We calculate the equilibrium size of a droplet containing dissolved ions and find that the radius of a droplet of seawater shrinks greatly before it achieves equilibrium.
