Variability of TTL water vapor A filtered CFH climatology and MLS water vapor for Ticosonde/Costa Rica Rennie Selkirk, NASA GSFC/GESTAR Mark Schoeberl, STC Rennie Selkirk, NASA GSFC/GESTAR Mark Schoeberl, STC ATTREX Science Team Meeting NCAR – 24 October 2013

Sonde processing Objectives: – Highlight the large seasonal variability in TTL WV – Need to remove CFH noise in at scale of ~100 m Approach: – Low-pass filter – with attention to data gaps – Apply to all variables – Calculate seasonal climo on data from – Will soon add 2012 and 2013

Water Vapor vs Ozone DJF JJA

MLS water vapor intecomparisons Long-term average data – MLS WV, version 3, interpolated via MERRA to San Jose and in potential temperature – Can be used to compare to CFH seasonal climatology MLS RDFs: – Back-trajectory-based product – Synthetic high-vertical resolution water vapor (and ozone) profiles – Use to infer day-to-day variability at a sounding location

Sondes vs. MLS v.3 Winter composite (36 sondes) Summer composite (60 sondes)

MLS SJO Summer 2007

MLS RDFs vs CFH * * * * * * * MLS RDF profile (previous slide)

Summary Strong seasonal cycle of water vapor in UTLS at Costa Rica Low-pass filtering of CFH data – Tape recorder prominent Low-pass filtering reduces instrumental noise – But may reduce frequency of high RH in TTL too strongly Seasonal average fields consistent with MLS, v.3 MLS RDFs promising technique for reproducing vertical structure seen in sondes
