[Arcsix] 2024 AGU Fall Meeting session on Remote Sensing of the Planetary Boundary Layer from Ground, Air, and Space

[Nehrir, Amin R. (LARC-E304)]

Dear ARCSIX team, please consider submitting to this AGU session focused on improved remote sensing and modeling techniques of the global PBL-

A broad and thought-provoking AGU Fall meeting session for remote sensing and modeling of the planetary boundary layer (PBL)  is open for abstract submissions until July 31, 2024. Please consider submitting an abstract for approaches to model and observe PBL thermodynamics and air-quality from space, air, and ground-based perspectives, towards enabling a global PBL observing system that spans relevant spatial and temporal scales:

A123 - Remote Sensing of the Planetary Boundary Layer from Ground, Air, and Space

Session Description:

The planetary boundary layer (PBL) serves as the mediating layer between the troposphere and surface where complex exchange processes are critical to weather, air-quality, and climate systems. Models inaccurately capture these processes across scales leading to uncertainty in short- and long-term predictions. The PBL remains a challenge to observe from space due to the lack of spatial and temporal resolution and low information content. From airborne and surface platforms, high resolution and accurate observations of thermodynamics is achieved, but statistical sampling due to lack of spatiotemporal coverage remains a challenge.   As such, global, systematic measurements of PBL thermodynamics remains an unmet challenge, and one which is being considered by the NASA PBL Incubation program.  In this session we encourage presentations on recent advances to observe and model PBL thermodynamics from space, air, and ground-based perspectives, serving as a platform to discuss the optimal architecture to measure the PBL across scales.
