气候变化及人类活动对西北干旱区水资源影响研究综述

本文回顾了西北干旱区气候变化事实及其对水资源影响的最新研究进展,从气候变化和人类活动两个角度综述了水资源变化的原因,以及未来西北干旱区水资源变化与适应对策。研究表明：1961年以来西北干旱区呈现明显暖湿化趋势,其中冬季增温最快,夏季降水增加速率最大。伊利河谷、塔城等地区增温趋势最大,北疆降水量增加最多。受气候变暖导致冰雪快速消融和山区降水增加的影响,西北干旱区西部河流黑河、疏勒河、塔里木河出山口径流量显著增加。由于东部河流石羊河径流的补给主要靠降水,降水的减少导致径流呈现下降趋势。不合理人类活动造成石羊河、黑河和开都河中下游径流减少。本文提出了西北干旱区亟待深入研究的任务：极端天气气候事件的变化规律及其对水资源影响;未来气候变化和水资源的预估;气候变化归因研究;气候变化-社会经济活动一体化适应策略选择;水资源科学合理定量分配等。     

未来气候变化对黄河流域水文过程的影响

使用NASA/NCAR有限区域大气环流模型FvGCM结果驱动高分辨率区域气候模式RegCM3 (20 km),进行1961～1990年当代气候模拟(控制试验)和2071～2100年IPCC A2排放情景下未来气候模拟(A2情景模拟试验)。将RegCM3径流模拟结果同大尺度汇流模型LRM [分辨率0.25°(纬度)×0.25°(经度)]相连接,模拟预估未来气候变化对我国黄河流域水文过程的影响。结果表明:相对于当代气候,未来黄河流域呈现气温升高、降水增加(夏季7～8月降水减少)和蒸发增大的趋势,且空间分布极不均匀,造成河川径流在5～10月减少,加剧流域夏季的水资源短缺;未来气温升高使得融雪径流增加,可能导致更早和更大的春季径流,使径流过程发生季节性迁移,引起黄河流域水资源年内分配发生变化。     

中国北方沙尘气溶胶对云和降水影响的数值模拟研究

已有的研究表明中国北方千旱半干旱地区是对流层沙尘气溶胶的主要来源之一,对当地乃至全球气候都有重要的意义.利用数值模拟研究方法探讨不同干燥程度的大气背景环境下,沙尘气溶胶数浓度对混合云形成和发展的可能影响,并采用析因试验讨论了主次影响因素.结果表明:沙尘气溶胶的增加导致降水减少、延长了云在空中存在的时间,改变了云的空间结构和微观结构.析因分析表明干旱半干旱气候背景条件下,混合云的累计降水量对沙尘气溶胶数浓度变化的敏感性要高于对大气环境湿度的敏感性;沙尘气溶胶数浓度增加导致云累计降水量的减少;沙尘气溶胶数浓度和大气环境湿度对云的累计降水量的影响是复杂的,研究结果可以用于指导降水预报业务.

阐述了黄河流域水文要素变化的事实,揭示了黄河流域径流的脆弱性;综述了黄河流域径流对气候变化的敏感性及未来气候变化对黄河流域径流的可能影响的研究现状.目前的研究表明:降水在20世纪80年代后呈弱减少趋势,径流减少明显;径流对降水的敏感程度高于对气温的敏感程度;在未来气候变化情景下,径流总体呈减少趋势,黄河流域未来水资源紧张态势将进一步加剧.依据上述研究成果,提出了黄河流域适应气候变化的对策.诸多气候变化对黄河径流影响的研究中,尚存在不足:气候变化对径流变化影响的机理尚需进一步研究,缺乏极端气候事件对径流的影响研究,气候模型和水文模型中的不确定问题有待解决.     

辽西地区降水农业满足度与干旱发生规律分析

利用1960—2014年辽西葫芦岛和朝阳地区9个气象站的气候观测资料,采用积分湿度指标和湿润指数等气候诊断分析方法,研究辽西地区4—9月农作物生长季降水的变化和降水农业满足度及干旱的发生规律。结果表明:1960—2014年辽西葫芦岛和朝阳地区4—9月农作物生长季降水呈减少的趋势,其中近20 a岭南沿海地区农作物生长季降水减少8.7%,岭北内陆地区农作物生长季降水减少11.1%,降水减少主要集中在7—9月。近55 a辽西地区农作物生长季湿润指数减小,岭南区K的气候倾向率为-0.023/10 a,岭北区K的气候倾向率为-0.015/10 a;干旱发生频率呈增加的趋势,近20 a岭南区干旱发生频率增加了30.0%,岭北区干旱发生频率增加了25.0%。辽西地区中度和重度干旱存在9—11 a的准周期。近55 a辽西地区农作物生长季降水农业满足度下降,近20 a岭南沿海气候区农作物生长季降水农业满足度下降11.8%,岭北内陆气候区农作物生长季降水农业满足度下降11.2%。辽西葫芦岛和朝阳地农业需水满足度下降是由于降水减少造成的,干旱发生频率增加,对正常农业生产造成威胁。因此,应加强水资源管理和应用,提高水资源利用率,适应气候变化调整农业生产结构,以应对干旱灾害造成的损失。     

夏季青藏高原与热带西太平洋下垫面热源异常对中国短期气候的影响

本文利用一个两层全球大气环流格点模式进行了控制试验、青藏高原地表反照率增加及热带西太平洋海温升高等三个数值试验,以研究夏季这两个地区下垫面热源异常对短期气候变化的影响。结果表明,高原地面热源减弱将造成海平面气压场上亚洲大陆低压减弱;高原及其以西地区500 hPa高度下降,黄河以北地区高度升高;同时高原地区、江淮流域以及黑龙江流域降水减少,但从北疆、内蒙到辽河流域以及我国西南局部和东南沿海地区降水增加。热带西太平洋海温异常带来的变化与此不同.文中还就下垫面热源异常在短期气候预测方面的可能应用等问题进行了讨论。     

青藏地区地球轨道变化对地形依赖性的数值模拟研究

利用美国大气研究中心(NCAR)的公用气候系统模式(CCSM2.01)进行了一组改变青藏高原地形高度和地球轨道(岁差)参数的数值模拟试验,以探讨青藏地区地球轨道和地形变化对高原气候的影响。结果表明:同样的岁差强迫,青藏地区与湿度相关的各种气候要素(如降水、地表径流、降雪和积雪深度)在高地形情况下的响应要比在低地形情况下的响应强烈得多。当近日点的时间由现代的1月份变为7月份时(如距今约1万年前的全新世初期),会造成高原中南部及高原南侧夏季降水和径流显著增加,冬季高原西北部降雪增加,但高原中南部的冬季降雪却会明显减少。上述区域气候变化特征与岁差强迫下大气环流的改变密切相关。这些数值模拟结果也有助于理解该地区相关地质气候记录中青藏高原隆升过程对轨道尺度气候变率的调制作用。     

植被对云南气候要素影响的敏感性试验

利用MM5模式对云南两个具有代表性的强降水过程进行高分辨率模拟,通过下垫面植被的敏感性试验,考察云南气候要素(降水、温度、湿度、风等)对下垫面植被状况的敏感性,从而达到了解自然环境及人类活动在云南天气、气候及气候变化中的作用与影响,以期提高对未来天气、气候变化、环境变化及其对人类社会发展影响的预测和评估能力。试验结果表明,下垫面植被状况的改变对云南气候要素值的影响非常明显,这种影响一般在近地面至700 hPa之间;下垫面植被覆盖率的锐减,使云南降水范围、降水量、空气湿度急剧减小,温度、风力、蒸发能力、干旱指数迅速增大,加剧了云南的干旱化和沙漠化,最终将导致云南的天气气候和环境生态系统偏离本来的平衡状态和演变过程。但下垫面植被状况的改变对降水中心、冷(暖)中心、干(湿)中心位置影响不大。

气候波动和人类活动对南水北调中线工程典型流域径流影响的定量评估

以南水北调中线工程典型流域汉江上游流域和滦河流域为研究对象,采用敏感性分析法、降水?径流双累积曲线法、累积量斜率变化率比较法定量评估了气候波动和人类活动对流域径流变化的影响。结果表明：汉江上游流域和滦河流域变异Ⅰ/Ⅱ期年均径流深相对于基准期分别减少了29.5% / 19.1%和49.8% / 70.0%;对于汉江上游流域,1991-1999年（变异Ⅰ期）气候波动是径流减少的主要影响因素,2000-2008年（变异Ⅱ期）人类活动则是径流减少的主要影响因素,且人类活动对汉江上游流域径流减少的影响逐步增加;对于滦河流域,1980-2010年（变异Ⅰ/Ⅱ期）人类活动一直是径流减少的主要影响因素,且气候波动和人类活动对径流减少的影响贡献率基本保持不变。     

NUMERICAL SIMULATION ON THE RESPONSE OF LAND SURFACE TO SEVERE WEATHER*

A coupled model of RAMS3b(Regional Atmospheric Modeling System,Version 3b) and LSPM(a land surface process model),in which some basic hydrological processes such as precipitation,evapotranspiration.surface runoff,infiltration and bottom drainage are included,has been established.With the coupled model,we have simulated the response of soil to the sever eweather process which caused the disastrous flood in north italy during 4-7.November,1994,simultaneously compared with the observation and the original RAMS3b,which has a soil and vegetation parameterization scheme(hereafter,SVP) emphasizing on the surface energy fluxes,while some hydrological processes in the soil are not described clearly.The results show that the differences between coupling LSPM and SVP exist mainly in the response of soil to the precipitation.The soil in the SVP never saturates under the strong input of precipitation,while the newly coupled model seems better,the soil has been saturated for one day or more and causes strong surface runoff,which constitutes the flood.Further sensitivity experiments show that the surface hydrological processes are very sensitive to the initial soil moisture and soil type when we compared the results with a relatively dry case and sandy soil.The coupled model has potentiality for simulation on the interaction between regional climate and land surface hydrological processes,and the regional water resources research concerning desertification,drought and flood.     

黄淮海地区植被覆盖变化驱动力与驱动机制研究

基于1982-2003年GIMMS NDVI遥感资料、气候资料和社会经济统计资料,利用主成分分析、逐步回归等方法,对黄淮海地区植被覆盖变化的驱动力和驱动机制进行了研究,从气候、社会经济两方面分析了区内6种植被类型区植被覆盖变化的驱动机制。结果发现,不同植被类型区,其驱动机制差别很大,但总体来说,区内各类植被类型区植被覆盖变化大都受到气候和人类活动的共同驱动,主要驱动力为气候因素,人类活动在局部区域能够产生较大作用,而大范围区域植被NDVI(归一化植被指数)的变化或改变,主要受气候变化的影响。在此基础上,分别建立了6种植被类型区年均NDVI变化驱动力模型。

土壤湿度异常对区域短期气候影响的数值模拟试验

用区域气候模式 (RegCM_NCC) 对江淮流域地区春季初始土壤湿度异常导致的区域气候效应进行了数值模拟分析, 结果表明:土壤湿度异常变化对区域降水的影响非常显著, 土壤湿度的正异常使得异常区域内降水增大, 地面空气增湿、蒸发加大, 与此相应, 地表气温迅速降低, 土壤湿度的负异常有与之相反的结果, 这种区域气候响应是通过改变地表辐射平衡及地-气系统能通量而实现的; 区域土壤湿度异常对短期气候的影响在一个月之内较明显, 它的影响可持续至以后的几个月, 但强度逐渐减弱; 区域土壤湿度异常的气候响应不仅仅局限于异常区域内部, 而且可以通过次级环流影响到其他区域的降水、温度等变化。     

Atmosphere-land cover feedbacks alter the response of surface temperature to CO2 forcing in the western United States

In order to test the sensitivity of regional climate to regional-scale atmosphere-land cover feedbacks, we have employed a regional climate model asynchronously coupled to an equilibrium vegetation model, focusing on the western United States as a case study. CO₂-induced atmosphere-land cover feedbacks resulted in statistically significant seasonal temperature changes of up to 3.5°C, with land cover change accounting for up to 60% of the total seasonal response to elevated atmospheric CO₂ levels. In many areas, such as the Great Basin, albedo acted as the primary control on changes in surface temperature. Along the central coast of California, soil moisture effects magnified the temperature response in JJA and SON, with negative surface soil moisture anomalies accompanied by negative evaporation anomalies, decreasing latent heat flux and further increasing surface temperature. Additionally, negative temperature anomalies were calculated at high elevation in California and Oregon in DJF, MAM and SON, indicating that future warming of these sensitive areas could be mitigated by changes in vegetation distribution and an associated muting of winter snow-temperature feedbacks. Precipitation anomalies were almost universally not statistically significant, and very little change in mean seasonal atmospheric circulation occurred in response to atmosphere-land cover feedbacks. Further, the mean regional temperature sensitivity to regional-scale land cover feedbacks did not exceed the large-scale sensitivity calculated elsewhere, indicating that spatial heterogeneity does not introduce non-linearities in the response of regional climate to CO₂-induced atmosphere-land cover feedbacks.     

气候与植被覆盖变化对中国西南亚高山区流域碳水循环的影响模拟

正确认识气候变化对流域森林植被和水文的影响对于林业经营管理与流域生态修复具有重要意义。为了揭示气候与植被覆盖变化对西南亚高山区流域碳水循环过程的影响,用生物物理/动态植被模型SSiB4/TRIFFID（Simplified Simple Biosphere model version 4, coupled with the Top-down Representation of Interactive Foliage and Flora Including Dynamics model）与流域地形指数水文模型TOPMODEL（Topographic Index Model）的耦合模型（以下记为SSiB4T/TRIFFID）模拟了不同气候情景下西南亚高山区的梭磨河流域植被演替和碳水循环过程。结果表明,所有试验流域植被经历了从C3到苔原灌木最后到森林的变化;控制试验流域蒸散在流域植被主要为苔原灌木时达到最大而径流深最小;增温5 ℃并且增雨40%试验[记为T+5, (1+40%) P试验]流域蒸散在流域为森林覆盖时达到最大而径流深最小。随着温度增加,森林蒸腾、冠层截留蒸发和蒸散的增加幅度明显大于草和苔原灌木,导致森林从控制试验的增加径流量变为减小径流量。从控制试验到T+5, (1+40%) P试验,温度增加使森林净初级生产力有所增加,但对草和苔原灌木的净初级生产力影响很小;植被水分利用效率随温度增加明显减小。西南山区随着海拔高度降低（温度升高）,森林从增加径流量转变为减少径流量,植被水分利用效率也相应明显减小。西南山区气候的垂直地带性对森林—径流关系和水分利用效率的空间变化有着重要的影响。     

植被覆盖变化对区域气候影响的研究进展

陆面植被覆盖变化作为全球及区域气候变化的重要影响因素之一，在近几十年来逐渐受到科学家们的关注，特别是通过大量的数值模拟研究了不同陆面覆盖状况对大气和气候变化的影响，取得了重要进展。研究结果普遍认为，植被覆盖变化通过改变地表反照率、粗糙度和土壤湿度等地表属性，从而影响辐射平衡、水分平衡等过程，最终可以导致区域降水、环流形势及大气温度、湿度等气候变化。总结了近十年国内外的相关研究及初步成果，尤其是植被变化对中国区域气候的影响，大部分研究认为，大范围植被退化使我国地表温度升高，东亚夏季风环流减弱，降水减少，使华北干旱加剧。同时指出了研究中存在问题及今后的工作重点。     

Mid-Century Ensemble Regional Climate Change Scenarios for the Western United States

To study the impacts of climate change on water resources in the western U.S., global climate simulations were produced using the National Center for Atmospheric Research/Department of Energy (NCAR/DOE) Parallel Climate Model (PCM). The Penn State/NCAR Mesoscale Model (MM5) was used to downscale the PCM control (20 years) and three future(2040–2060) climate simulations to yield ensemble regional climate simulations at 40 km spatial resolution for the western U.S. This paper describes the regional simulations and focuses on the hydroclimate conditions in the Columbia River Basin (CRB) and Sacramento-San Joaquin River (SSJ) Basin. Results based on global and regional simulations show that by mid-century, the average regional warming of 1 to 2.5 °C strongly affects snowpack in the western U.S. Along coastal mountains, reduction in annual snowpack was about70% as indicated by the regional simulations. Besides changes in mean temperature, precipitation, and snowpack, cold season extreme daily precipitation increased by 5 to 15 mm/day (15–20%) along theCascades and the Sierra. The warming resulted in increased rainfall at the expense of reduced snowfall, and reduced snow accumulation (or earlier snowmelt) during the cold season. In the CRB, these changes were accompanied by more frequent rain-on-snow events. Overall, they induced higher likelihood of wintertime flooding and reduced runoff and soil moisture in the summer. Changes in surface water and energy budgets in the CRB and SSJ basin were affected mainly by changes in surface temperature, which were statistically significant at the 0.95 confidence level. Changes in precipitation, while spatially incoherent, were not statistically significant except for the drying trend during summer. Because snow and runoff are highly sensitive tospatial distributions of temperature and precipitation, this study shows that (1) downscaling provides more realistic estimates of hydrologic impacts in mountainous regions such as the western U.S., and (2) despite relatively small changes in temperature and precipitation, changes in snowpack and runoff can be much larger on monthly to seasonal time scales because the effects of temperature and precipitation are integrated over time and space through various surface hydrological and land-atmosphere feedback processes. Although the results reported in this study were derived from an ensemble of regional climate simulations driven by a global climate model that displays low climate sensitivity compared with most other models, climate change was found to significantly affect water resources in the western U.S. by the mid twenty-first century.     

Possible climatic impacts of tropical deforestation

Large-scale conversion of tropical forests into pastures or annual crops will likely lead to changes in the local microclimate of those regions. Larger diurnal fluctuations of surface temperature and humidity deficit, increased surface runoff during rainy periods and decreased runoff during the dry season, and decreased soil moistrue are to be expected.It is likely that evapotranspiration will be reduced because of less available radiative energy at the canopy level since grass presents a higher albedo than forests, also because of the reduced availability of soil moisture at the rooting zone primarily during the dry season. Recent results from general circulation model (GCM) simulations of Amazonian deforestation seem to suggest that the equilibrium climate for a grassy vegetation in Amazonia would be one in which regional precipitation would be significantly reduced.Global climate changes probably will occur if there is a marked change in rainfall patterns in tropical forest regions as a result of deforestation. Besides that, biomass burning of tropical forests is likely adding CO₂ into the atmosphere, thus contributing to the enhanced greenhouse warming.
