Abstract

The radiative forcing of black carbon aerosol (BC) and its effects on the climate of East Asia still have significant uncertainties.Moreover, little attention has been paid to the ocean in the study of climate effects of BC.In order to quantitavely analyze the direct radiative forcing of BC and its effect on East Asia summer monsoon through the sea air interactions, here the sensitivity experiments of the off-line simulation of BC was carried out by using the regional air sea coupling model.The results of sensitivity experiments show that the clear sky net direct radiative forcing under clear-sky conditions over East Asia is 1.58 W·m-2 at the top of atmosphere (TOA) and -2.75 W·m-2 at the surface in spring respectively, and 1.68 W·m-2 on TOA and -2.62 W·m-2 on the surface in summer respectively.Effected by the radiative effects of BC, the atmosphere gets warmer, the thermal stability of atmosphere increases, while the cloud cover decreases.In spring, the “Elevated Heat Pump” effect of BC causes the increased precipitation over the South China (SC) and the advanced summer monsoon.In summer, the radiative effects of BC cause a cooling effect on the Bengal Bay and then reinforce the South Trough, which results in the increased precipitation over SC; Furthermore, the increased meridional temperature gradient around the middle latitude can enhance the force of cold air and the divergence of water vapor, which can induce the decreasing of the precipitation over the North China (NC).The positive anomaly of the precipitation over SC and the negative anomaly of the precipitation over NC favor the "southern flood and northern drought".The radiative effects of BC can raise the tropical sea surface temperature (SST) while decrease the meridional SST gradient and the sea land thermal contrast through the sea air interactions, that will lead to a weak summer monsoon.In addition, the radiative effects of BC can also enhance the local Hadley circulation and the northerly wind, and then weaken the summer monsoon.
