Jason is investigating the microphysical properties of sulfate aerosols in earth's upper troposphere/lower stratosphere region. This is useful towards understanding the sources and sinks of sulfur species from anthropogenic surface emissions, volcanic eruptions, and possible geoengineering schemes. Jason is using the microphysical sectional model CARMA with the dynamical transport model WACCM to model the entire sulfur cycle (emissions, chemistry, nucleation, coagulation, growth, and deposition) in a 3-D GCM. The impacts of sulfates on climate, long range surface transport, and stratospheric ozone are quantified.
