Atmospheric and Climate Sciences

Earth system science, climate change, aerosol – biosphere – climate, aerosol – cryosphere interaction, bioaerosol and ecosystem health impact, climate modeling, tropical indian climate, atmospheric dynamics, iris webinar.

The interdependence of atmosphere and climate processes makes it imperative that we study and investigate weather phenomena, atmospheric composition, and climate systems in more niceties. Although much progress has been made in this direction over the last few decades, understanding underlying mechanisms responsible for overall climate change, extreme weather phenomenon, severe air pollution episodes, and changing hydrological cycle, however, remains very limited. Contrary to the global climate system, the Indian climate system is more complex, challenging, and requires much more in-depth research to understand human activities' future implications better. This is partly due to the limited enhancement in the fundamental scientific knowledge about the Indian climate system.

There are many complex processes, which are not clearly understood and raise significant problems like: Indian summer monsoon rainfall (ISMR) system; it is not clearly understood what has caused the recent increase in intensity and frequency of extreme rainfall events? Why are the cyclones in recent times known to have more energy (wind and rainfall) at the times of landfall? How are these cyclones going to respond to future temperature increase; will they be more devastating? While the aerosols are known to affect the rainfall significantly, anthropogenic aerosols' role and impact on ISMR are least understood.

How is the change in ISMR, in turn, going to affect the water resources management over India? First, to comprehend these problems, secondly to clearly outline their potential impacts, and thirdly to devise the strategy to adapt and mitigate, enhancement in the fundamental understanding of atmospheric and climatic processes, over the Indian region, is the focus of this Laboratory for Atmospheric and Climate Sciences (LACS)

Objective 1: Understanding atmospheric and cloud dynamics

Dynamics of MST exchange on a large temporal scale demonstrating the interlinking of atmospheric dynamic from tropical to polar region. Obtained from Atmospheric Dynamic Research Infrastructure in Europe program. Image is only for depiction purpose.

The proposed group has been collaborating with experts from various other institutions to work on this problem and a preliminary progress has already been made in this direction. Further, the tropical cyclone is one of the most important weather phenomena, which regularly affects the coastal Indian region, in particular the eastern coast of India. The accurate prediction of the formation, track, and landfall of these cyclone is extremely important and requires the deeper understanding the tropical climate and atmosphere. While such an expertise is already available with the group, it is also important to investigate how these cyclones are going to respond the future climate change. For example, it is extremely necessary to understand how a past cyclone would behave if it were to occur under 2.5ºC increase in global temperature. This part of research would also form the important share of the coursed, which are being proposed for the masters program of the center. The knowledge gained through the research about atmospheric and cloud dynamics over this particular region in addition to previous knowledge through this objective would greatly subserve the main objective about having a center, which will strive for top quality fundamental research in atmosphere and climate sciences, produce excellent manpower. The top-quality peer reviewed publications in this area enhancing the fundamental understanding of atmosphere and cloud dynamics and also introducing the relevant courses would be primary metrics to evaluate the success of work element . The detailed workplan for this particular objective in two phases is shown in Fig. 3 in terms of the work chart.

Objective 2: Gas phase and aerosol chemistry of the troposphere

Depiction of complex interaction among various human activities, atmospheric composition, chemical and physical processes and collective implication on the climate from global to local scale. (Adopted and modified from DLR-IMF, after WMO-IGACO 2004 only for representation purpose).

mainly due to the lack of long-term systematic observations of toxic pollutants. The measurements of these pollutant should not be only limited to regular monitoring of criteria pollutants but should and must be extended to other important pollutants like HCl, aerosol chemistry, etc. To summarize this objective the major focus would be to national and international field campaigns, laboratory studies of the gas-phase chemistry, and chemical climate modeling. As will be discussed below the atmospheric chemistry would be one of the major subjects for the masters program we are proposing here.

Objective 3: Climate Science and Impacts on the Biosphere

The complex interaction between and among biosphere, land-use, and hydrological cycle and various processes including with human interaction. The complex interaction clearly shows the importance of understanding the climate science in detail over a given region to better understand the impacts.

The fundamental understanding of the climate sciences is extremely important for unravelling the complex interlinks between various processes. For example, the climate change has a strong implication on perturbing the hydrological cycle by means of change in water vapor concentration in the atmosphere. This in turn can greatly affect the biosphere in general through the various terrestrial processes. The biosphere once stressed due to lack of water resources can strongly affect the land use pattern through human interaction, which can further change the response to the climate change. Such a complex interaction is depicted in Fig. 4. It is also important to note that the processes and interactions depicted here are strongly related to other objectives mentioned here. For example, for the improved understanding of the hydrological cycle it is important to understand the role of changing aerosol properties on cloud and precipitation forming processes. This in turn is complimentary and pertinent to develop the schemes and parameterization to be used in the prognostic modeling dealing with prediction of monsoon and monsoon related processes. Another example of strong interlinking of the processes is in terms of impact of changing land use on climate feedback. It has been well established that the changing land use pattern strongly affects the monsoon circulation on regional/local scale thus altering the availability of water quantity, requiring smart and well-planned water resource management policies. The overreaching scientific goal under this objective would be devoted to important aspect related to investigate and enhance our understanding about physical cryosphere – atmosphere interaction processes responsible for perturbing the Asian high mountain snow and ice. One of the key issues in this direction is about the darkening of snow and ice over and glacier mass balance with respect to radiative forcing by global warming over Indian Himalayan Region (IHR). In this objective, we will further elucidate the role of black carbon (BC) emissions and dust loading over the entire IHR by means of the systematic and exclusive road measurement campaign by deploying state-of-the-art instrumentation. The majority of the instruments required for such a study are already available with PIs as a part of proposed center. A recent paper, highlighting the novel approach and importance of this emerging area is published in high impact factor journal Nature Climate Change.

The three objectives pertaining to research proposed here are being researched by the top institutions across the globe including MIT, Harvard University, Max Planck Institute for Chemistry, University of Manchester, Georgia Institute of Technology, California Institute of Technology (CalTech), Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, ETH Zurich, etc. This clearly indicates the importance of this research in global context. We will closely collaborate with all these institutions to bring in the strong international presence for the center by close association in research, teaching, and field measurement campaigns.

Objective 4: Masters program in “Atmospheric and Climate Sciences”

Expected deliverables of the research, publications and visible output, phase – i (1 – 2 years).

During Phase – I for first two years the major deliverables will include: i) Introducing a first of its kind masters course in Atmospheric and Climate Science with extensive courses and practical approach ii) Make sure the curriculum grows further by approaching national research laboratories, industries, etc. iii) Strong capacity building in terms of Atmospheric and Climate Sciences research iv) Publications in high impact factor journals. Note that the PIs have already published papers in journal of high to very high impact factor: Nature Communications, Nature Climate Change, Nature (under review), Nature Geoscience, Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, Environmental Pollution, Scientific Report, Atmospheric Research, Environmental Science and Pollution Research, ACS Earth and Space Chemistry, Journal of Physical Chemistry, Building and Environment, etc. State-of-the-art and most advanced instrumentation facility to study the aerosol properties and atmospheric chemistry for climate, health, biosphere impact. Few of the major equipment for advanced aerosol and gas phase chemistry worth Rs. 12 Crore are available with the PIs. We wish to supplement with some basic equipment in first two year like meteorological stations, microscopes, EC-OC analyzer, etc. This will greatly help to have one of the most advanced Atmospheric and Climate Sciences Laboratories in India. For example, it is important to note that UV-APS instrument, which is used to measure the online and real-time concentration of bioaerosols in high time and size resolutions. Thus, with the procurement of some basic but extremely pertinent and complimentary aerosol and gas-phase instruments we will have advanced atmospheric and climate laboratory of the world. We will regular arrange the colloquiums of the speakers of international reputes from all across the globe. In the beginning we will coordinate and conduct these colloquiums in online mode and slowly move on to inviting people here for long-term visits and conduct classes for our students.

Phase – II (3-5 Years)

During Phase – II for the remaining three years major deliverables will include i) Enhancing the masters curriculum to the Ph.D. level and increase the number of masters seats by means of sponsored candidates, ii) explore the possibility of joint Global masters program with top universities/institutions, where collaborations are already is in place. iii) in third year, International Conference on Atmospheric and Climate Science is proposed with world renowned scientists. We intend to club this with important meetings of Atmospheric and CP Journal Editors, members of the International Global Atmospheric Chemistry (IGAC), World Meteorological Organization (WMO), etc. PI is already in contact with all the members and renowned scientists across the globe for such a world conference to be held at IIT Madras in December 2023, iv) publishing papers in top quality peer reviewed journal will be the top priority of the center, and based on the research direction, which is being proposed the PIs are confident of continuing their current tempo of top quality journal publications, v) throughout the establishment of the center possibility for external funding by means of donor (like Divecha Center in IISc), sponsorship from ministries (like MoES or agencies like DST), joint funding from international partners, etc will be priority. This effort is to make center independent in its masters program, research, and overall administration. vi) During 4th year we will acquire the further high-end instruments, and vii) publication in top quality peer reviewed journal is going to be the main yardstick for performance evaluation .

Manpower development

Internationalization.

The internationalization of the center for the recognition of the world level would be mainly targeted by publishing the research papers in top quality peer reviewed journals. Alternatively following three major efforts will be implemented for the internationalization:

Collaborations: We strongly believe that we probably have one of the best collaborations in the field of atmospheric and climate sciences. PI has been actively collaborating with top institutions like Harvard University, Max Planck Institute for Chemistry, Manchester University, Georgia Tech., etc. This collaboration is at very matured and high-quality stage as evident from PIs yearly visits, student exchange, and top-quality joint publications. We have no hesitation to mention that out top quality active collaboration in the field of atmospheric and climate sciences is unmatched in India and our strongest point. The current PhD students at these institutions have already shown strong interest in YIF program and we are in talk with two recent PhD students form Manchester University and Max Planck Institute. Currently a collaborator from Georgia Tech. has been appointed as Adjunct Faculty in CE department and is jointly guiding MTech students and will soon be appointed as a co-guide for a doctoral student, who is expected to join under IDRP program once the campus is reopened. At the same time PI already an associate researcher at Max Planck Institute for Chemistry actively taking part in their curriculum. Further, PIs application for adjunct faculty at Georgia Tech., and University of Manchester is being considered.

International education program: There is a strong possibility and option for an international masters program in Atmospheric and Climate Science. Max Planck Institute for Chemistry, Harvard University, University of Manchester, and Georgia Institute of Technology, et. al. will be the international partners for joint masters program. The program goals and possible outcomes are as follow:

Goal: Assist the students in internationalizing their degree at IIT Madras to broaden their global exposure and perspective

Outcome: develop cross-cultural skillset and understanding among students; possibility to build global network; development of internationally recognizable skills; interpret multiple perspectives.

Program structure: To start with the MTech/MS student will get an opportunity to spend one semester of their last two project semesters at one of the aforementioned institutions. All the institutions have extended a support letter to cover their research cost whereas the other financial support has been provisioned in the budget proposed for this center. Thus, as mentioned in Chart 1 as a part of masters thesis student will spent 6-8 weeks at the institutions mentioned above.

• Employment opportunity: One of the most relevant and effective job options would be getting PhD positions in top institutions. At this moment there is no such a dedicated curriculum is available at masters level in India. At this moment the students from non-core areas like Physics, Chemistry, Environmental Sciences, Earth Sciences, etc. are given the preferences due to the scarcity of trained and specialized students in atmospheric and climate sciences. Also, lots of national laboratories and agencies like IMD, IITM, NARL, ISRO, SPL, etc. do required technical assistants in such a background. Further, various non-governmental organizations, working in areas like climate policies, sustainability, awareness and assessment about climate change, environmental impact assessment consultant, etc. are the potential job opportunities.

International conferences: Right from the date of sanction of the center we wish to start preparation for organizing an International conference on “Atmospheric Chemistry and Climate Impacts”. We have actually been planning for such a conference for a longtime but could not due to the lack of funding. We intend to organize this conference in January 2023 in association with WMO, IGAC, iLEAPS, ACPC, and WCRP (World Climate change Research Program). The possible Themes are as follow:

Aerosol and Gas phase Chemistry (with following sub-themes)

• Aerosol – cloud interaction
• Aerosol radiative forcing and glacier impact
• Gas phase measurements under varying environments
• Bioaerosols and ecosystem health interaction
• Urban climate change and pollution
• Aerosol and health exposure – outdoor and indoor
• Satellite observations of gases and aerosols

Atmospheric and cloud dynamics (with following sub-themes)

• Boundary layer meteorology
• Micrometeorology
• Cloud dynamic and related simulations
• Cyclone: Observations and modeling
• Satellite remote sensing for atmosphere, climate, and ocean
• Balloon measurements of the atmosphere

Atmospheric Chemistry and Climate Modelling

• Modeling the tropospheric chemistry
• Aerosol: satellite remote sensing and numerical modeling
• Air quality modelling
• Aerosol – cloud – precipitation interaction: DNS modeling
• Radar observations and modeling

Sustenance statement :

Component and representation of sustenance plan for three major components of the center; faculty, research, and funding. Each component is strongly interrelated and have bearing on the overall performance of the center.

international institutions, which will be other than the collaborators of the faculty group. Further, at this moment we together have more than worth Rs. 20 crores of advanced and state-of-the-art instrumentation either obtained through external funding and long-term loan under collaborations. These instruments are currently being supported from external funding and under collaborations. When we obtain the other advanced instrumentation under CoE we intend to undertake joint research with international partners; since the research would be a joint venture our international patterns have already agreed to support the maintenance and further operational cost of the high-end equipment. This is more because the measurement data obtained under various environments would be jointly used for joint publications in top quality peer reviewed journals. The role, responsibilities, and roadmap for faculty, research, and funding is framed for easy and effective understanding in Chart 4. We are aware that their various foundations (for example, * Sloan foundation, Ford foundation, Ayrshire foundation, Bancker-William foundation, Barr foundation, Bloomberg philanthropies, Caldera foundation, etc.). Based on PIs past experience in dealing with one of the foundations for funding to one of the American universities we are very confident and hopeful that based on good curriculum, top quality peer reviewed publications, and a systematic approach with our world class collaborator we stand a good chance for getting a donor for the center. Thus, after second year, along with our international partner as an international group we intend to get in touch with various foundations for establishing (taking CoE forward) on IIT Madras campus. One of the reasons for such a support is India will be a key player in coming years for climate change related studies for multiple reasons including exerting largest pressure on climate to providing the potential climate change solutions to the world.
