2 Radiative Forcing of Climate, 1750-Present: Important Contributions from Methane and Ozone IPCC [2001] Level of scientific understanding

4 Observations indicate historical increase in background ozone; IPCC scenarios project future growth Ozone at European mountain sites [Marenco et al., 1994] Change in 10-model mean July surface O 3 [Prather et al., 2003] 2100 SRES A Attributed mainly to increases in methane and NO x [Wang et al., 1998; Prather et al., 2003]
5 Pre-industrial background Rising background O 3 has implications for attaining air quality standards Europe seasonal new CA standard 8-hr avg Current background WHO/Europe 8-hr average U.S. 8-hr average O 3 (ppbv) Analyses of surface O 3 from North American and European monitoring sites indicate increasing background in recent years [Lin et al., 2000; Jaffe et al., 2003, 2005; Vingarzan, 2004; EMEP/CCC-Report 1/2005 ]
6 Impacts of O 3 precursor reductions on global surface O 3 Steady-state change in 8-hr daily maximum surface O 3 averaged over 3-month O 3 season from 20% reductions in global anthropogenic emissions NO x NMVOC ppbv CO CH 4 MOZART-2 model (2.8 x 2.8 ) West et al., submitted

8 Impacts of O 3 Precursor Reductions on U.S. Summer Afternoon Surface O 3 Frequency Distributions GEOS-Chem Model Simulations (4 x5 ) West & Fiore, ES&T, 2005
9 Contributions from precursor emissions to the tropospheric O 3 burden also add linearly Decrease in global tropospheric O 3 inventory (Tg) in GEOS-Chem model (4 x5 ) from 50% global reductions in anthropogenic emissions CO VOC CH 4 NO x NO x + VOC ALL Anthropogenic emissions of NO x and methane have the largest impact on tropospheric O 3 Fiore et al., GRL, 2002
10 Global observations of atmospheric CH 4 NOAA/GMD cooperative network of background sampling sites (1983-present) e.g. Dlugokencky et al., 2005 SCIAMACHY Column-averaged CH 4 volume mixing ratio (Aug-Nov 2003) Frankenberg et al., Science, 2005 Space-based observations may provide new constraints on the CH 4 budget
11 Estimates of current CH 4 emissions Total CH 4 source ~600 Tg yr -1, ~60% anthropogenic [IPCC TAR] >25% uncertainty in present-day CH 4 sources anthropogenic c/o Michael Raupach, CSIRO, Australia; studies cited in IPCC TAR, AR-4 Methane sink (OH) also ~30% uncertain [Stevenson et al., 2006]
12 Methane (ppb) Emission estimates for the past decade are fairly consistent with surface CH 4 observations Transient, full-chemistry simulations with MOZART-2 (1.9 x 1.9 ) driven by NCEP OBS[NOAA/GMD] BASE VARY BASE (constant emissions): captures observed rise, then flattening meteorologically-driven (OH & T) VARY (increasing EDGAR time-varying wetland emissions) improves: Global mean surface concentration Interhemispheric gradient High N latitude seasonal cycle Fiore et al., GRL, in press
13 Atmosphere gradually responds to decreases in CH 4 emissions following the CH 4 perturbation lifetime (~12 years) Change in methane and ozone in MOZART-2 model (1.9 x 1.9 ) when global anthrop. CH 4 emissions are reduced by 30% Surface Methane Concentration (ppb) Model approaches new steady-state after 30 years of simulation Does the spatial pattern of the O 3 decrease depend on CH 4 source location? Tropospheric Ozone Burden (Tg)
14 Change in global July surface O 3 mainly independent of CH 4 source location Results from 11 th year of transient simulation beginning in 1990 (met. year 2000) Zero anth. CH 4 emis. from Asia 30% decrease in global anth. CH 4 emis. ppbv Zero Asia global 30% ppbv Slightly larger response in source region Stronger response in high-no x and downwelling regions MOZART-2 model (1.9 x 1.9 )
15 Tropospheric O 3 responds approximately linearly to anthropogenic CH 4 emission changes across models X MOZART-2 (this work) TM3 [Dentener et al., ACP, 2005] GISS [Shindell et al., GRL, 2005] GEOS-CHEM [Fiore et al., GRL, 2002] IPCC TAR [Prather et al., 2001] Anthropogenic CH 4 contributes: ~50 Tg (~15%) to tropospheric O 3 burden ~5 ppbv to surface O 3
16 Will methane continue to increase in the future? Anthropogenic CH 4 emissions (Tg yr -1 ) Dentener et al., ACP, 2005
17 Future CH 4 controls complement reductions in other O 3 precursors Change in mean surface O 3 in TM3 model (7.5 x 10 ) CO,NO x,nmvoc controls only CH 4 controls only + O 3 change from controls on all precursors O 3 changes from all precursor reductions add approximately linearly Dentener et al., ACP, 2005
18 Conclusions: Abating O 3 pollution with CH 4 controls Anthropogenic CH 4 contributes ~5 ppb to surface O 3 ; ~50 Tg to tropospheric burden O 3 responds approximately linearly to CH 4 reductions, and to combined changes in CH 4 and other precursors CH 4 controls complement NO x and NMVOC controls CH 4 source location has little influence on O 3 production; heterogeneities arise from NO x distribution and transport Target cheapest CH 4 controls worldwide Reducing CH 4 emissions decreases surface O 3 everywhere and lowers radiative forcing (decadal time scale) CH 4 controls could offset positive forcing from NO x controls Remaining challenges: Better constraints on emissions, anthropogenic vs. natural Role of global change on future atmospheric CH 4 Unpublished work funded by NOAA, NASA and Luce Foundation (with CATF)
