京津冀周边秸秆燃烧对PM2.5无机组分影响

华北平原是我国主要农作物产区,田间秸秆焚烧现象普遍存在,选取秋收季节（2014年10月）分析了秸秆燃烧的排放特征,利用区域化学传输模型WRF-Chem模拟研究了燃烧排放对气态前体物及其氧化产物的影响,以及最终导致的PM_2.5中硫酸盐、硝酸盐和铵盐的变化。研究表明:2014年秋收季节,河南和山东等省份的秸秆燃烧排放会在东南风的输送作用下影响京津冀地区;秸秆燃烧排放大量挥发性有机物（VOCs）,导致火点源及周边地区大气中主要氧化剂浓度上升,提升了区域大气氧化能力;当携带大量VOCs的秸秆燃烧烟羽与以化石燃料排放为主的城市气团相混合时,大气氧化性增强会加速城市地区人为源排放的NO_x和SO₂等气态前体物的氧化过程,提高硫酸盐和硝酸盐的形成速率、促进二次无机气溶胶的生成。     

中国的PM2.5和对流层臭氧及污染物排放控制对策的综合分析

本文首先对中国PM2.5和近地面臭氧浓度的观测进行了简要的综述;并利用2010-2013年全球对流层臭氧的卫星观测数据给出了对流层臭氧浓度在全球和中国地区的分布特征,其平均值分别为29.78 DU和33.97 DU。然后,利用一个气溶胶大气化学-全球气候双向耦合模式模拟了中国地区PM2.5的浓度分布和季节变化,其年平均值为0.51×10^-8 kg/m³。在此基础上又分析了5种典型气溶胶对PM2.5总浓度在不同季节的贡献。结合IPCC第五次评估报告（AR5）,讨论了气溶胶和温室气体及其前体物的排放与辐射强迫的联系,以及减排大气臭氧前体物和气溶胶颗粒物质（PM）对气候变化的可能影响。指出减排臭氧前体物对气候的影响还不完全清楚,对短寿命的温室气体和黑碳气溶胶的减排是一种短期（未来50年）的辅助措施;为了保证全球平均温度增长不超过2℃,减少二氧化碳的排放仍是我们需要坚持的长期战略。短期和长期的减排战略对于保护环境和减缓气候变化都是至关重要的。     

Model analysis of secondary organic aerosol over China with a regional air quality modeling system(RAMS-CMAQ)

为了研究我国二次有机气溶胶(SOA)时空分布及其主要组分,更新了RAMS-CMAQ的SOA模块,主要考虑SOA老化,不同NOx浓度下SOA的形成以及异戊二烯和倍半萜烯生成SOA的机制。结果表明,SOA在我国中东部地区浓度较高而在西部则较低。高SOA覆盖两块区域:京津冀到长江中游及四川盆地到我国西南边界,但对有机气溶胶(OA)的贡献不到10%,低SOA主要出现在青藏高原,占OA的20%–30%。值得注意的是,冬季人为源前体物对SOA的贡献显著,在中东部地区可达50%–80%。在北京,人为源SOA主要前体物是甲苯和二甲苯而单萜烯则是生物源SOA主要前体物。SOA的老化部分超过57%,这可能是SOA消光增强的原因。     

典型区域传输过程关键源区减排对天津无机气溶胶及PM2.5的影响研究

利用嵌套网格空气质量数值预报模式NAQPMS探究一次典型区域传输过程关键源区气态前体物减排对天津无机气溶胶(IA)及PM2.5的影响。大尺度区域高精度的IA模拟数据显示,华北平原地区生成了高浓度的IA,向华东地区传输后,按顺时针方向又返回华北平原地区。这一往返式区域传输过程导致天津出现两次污染时段。利用耦合在NAQPMS中的在线污染物来源追踪方法量化了不同源区对天津IA的贡献,识别出华北平原地区是关键源区,日均贡献为57.6%～100%。在天津污染前1天和污染天对华北平原地区SO₂、NH₃和NO_x减排30%分别开展敏感性试验,研究表明NH₃减排导致天津IA和PM2.5最大下降率分别为30.8%和13.3%,是SO₂减排对IA和PM2.5最大下降率的16倍和26.6倍,是NO_x减排情景对IA和PM2.5最大下降率的7倍和6.4倍,成为降低天津污染水平最显著的前体物。SO₂减排造成天津硝酸盐浓度上升,最大增长率为3.5%,根据热动力学平衡...     

北京地区2013–2017年细颗粒物爆发增长事件的演变特征及气象成因分析（英文）

本文详细分析了2013–2017年北京地区细颗粒物爆发增长事件的演变特征,并结合气态前体物和常规气象要素对3种事件类型(3h, 6h和9h事件)的污染来源及其气象成因进行了探讨。北京地区细颗粒物爆发增长事件呈逐年下降趋势,且多发生在秋冬季;事件的生消过程中NO_2的增长速率远高于SO_2,表明移动源的贡献要高于固定源。风向-风速-PM_(2.5)的polar Plot结果表明,来自北京东南方向气团的污染物输送对于3h事件有较大影响, 9h事件受主要受局地排放及二次转化的影响, 6h事件则源于局地排放和区域传输的共同贡献。     

南京冬季持续性强浓雾天气中三级分档雾水的理化特性分析

2013年12月7—9日南京出现持续性强浓雾天气过程。利用观测试验中获取的三级分档雾水和分粒径气溶胶的水溶性离子浓度,气溶胶数浓度谱、雾滴谱以及自动气象站获取的气象要素等资料,通过对比研究浓雾过程中4—16 μm（3级）、16—22 μm（2级）、>22 μm（1级）3个粒径范围雾滴（雾水）与分粒径气溶胶的微物理特征和化学特性,探讨不同粒径气溶胶粒子吸湿增长对雾滴的贡献以及气溶胶离子组分对不同尺度雾滴化学性质的影响。结果表明,在强浓雾天气中,能见度为50 m左右,短波辐射减弱形成稳定逆温层,有助于污染气溶胶的累积并吸湿增长向雾滴转化。雾滴的增加主要集中在小滴范围, 直径在0.5—1 μm的气溶胶粒子对其贡献最大。各粒径段气溶胶中阴离子NO₃-和SO₄2-均表现出较高值,阳离子中Ca2+浓度最高。三档雾水中各阴、阳离子浓度均在4—16 μm小滴雾水中最高,16—22 μm中滴雾水和>22 μm大滴雾水的阴、阳离子浓度没有明显的高低之分。阳离子中Ca2+的浓度在第1级小滴雾水中最高,2级和3级雾水中NH₄+的浓度最高,阴离子中NO₃-和SO₄2-在各级雾水中浓度相差不大。雾水pH值2.7—6.9,呈酸性,小雾滴酸性更强。

解析北京郊区一次典型臭氧污染的物理化学过程

臭氧污染是我国当前面临的重要大气环境问题,其不仅取决于大气化学反应过程,而且会受大气物理过程和各气象要素的影响,因此需要从化学和物理两个方向来研究近地面臭氧污染问题。本研究结合外场观测和欧拉光化学模式,解析了2022年秋季北京怀柔城区的一次光化学污染周期内的物理和化学过程。给出了温度、湿度和风速等气象因子,以及臭氧及其前体物挥发性有机物(VOCs)和氮氧化物(NO_x,x=1、2)在此期间的日变化特征。通过源解析得到VOCs主要来源为交通排放(46%)、植物源(25%)、溶剂挥发(23%)和燃烧源(9%)。通过欧拉光化学模式确定了区域传输和本地VOCs对臭氧的贡献,结果显示强北风天气条件下,怀柔区臭氧以外来水平输送为主(贡献超过70%);当以弱的南风或东南风为主时,天气处于稳定状态,臭氧主要来自VOCs和NO_x的二次转化。根据VOCs的臭氧潜势,在所有VOCs中对臭氧贡献最大的物质为烯烃,其贡献为67%,其次为芳香烃(16%)。通过敏感度分析,发现臭氧生成对物理因子中的光强、温度和边界层高度最敏感;在臭氧前体物中,活性较强的烯烃类物质的敏感度最...     

一个适用于地球系统模式(CAS-ESM)的在线气溶胶与大气化学分量模式(IAP-AACM)的发展与评估

地球系统模式是研究全球气候与生态环境变化问题的重要工具，气溶胶与大气化学模式负责为其中的大气环流模式提供与气候效应有关的气态化学物质和气溶胶成分。本文在全球嵌套网格空气质量预报模式系统的基础上发展了一个适用于中国科学院地球系统模式（CAS-ESM）耦合计算的气溶胶与大气化学分量模式（IAP-AACM），采用简化的气相化学机制，不仅考虑了人为气溶胶，同时考虑了海盐、沙尘和二甲基硫等自然气溶胶及其前体物的在线排放。评估结果表明，IAP-AACM氧化剂插值计算可靠，采用简化机制和碳键机制（CBM-Z）模拟的差异较小。和观测的对比表明，得益于CAS-ESM的气溶胶双向反馈作用，简化版能够较好地抓住气溶胶及其前体物的空间分布，为IAP-AGCM提供可靠的气溶胶模拟。另外，简化版能大幅提升计算效率，满足CAS-ESM耦合长期积分的需求。为了在全球气候变化的研究中提供更完善的气溶胶模拟，未来考虑在IAP-AACM中增加氮化学和臭氧平流层化学机制。     

京津冀一次重度雾霾天气能见度及边界层关键气象要素的模拟研究

本文利用GRAPES_CUACE大气化学模式对京津冀地区2015年12月重度雾霾过程进行了模拟和评估。京津冀地区能见度和PM_2.5模拟值与观测值的对比表明:该模式能较好地模拟京津冀地区能见度和PM_2.5的逐日变化情况,但模式存在对伴随着重污染发生的低能见度模拟偏高的问题。以12月5~10日的重度雾霾过程为重点,针对地面风速、边界层高度、相对湿度、PM_2.5及其对能见度的影响进行了详细分析,研究结果表明:污染过程中大部分地区过程平均风速低于2 m s-1,边界层平均高度低于600 m,相对湿度较高。模式低能见度模拟偏高可能因为:（1）模式模拟重雾霾时段的PM_2.5极大值浓度偏低。（2）模拟相对湿度存在系统性偏低的误差,这一误差对能见度的影响表现为两方面,一是相对湿度会通过影响可溶性气溶胶的吸湿增长过程影响气溶胶质量浓度,导致气溶胶消光系数的计算偏低;二是目前模式中采用的能见度的参数化公式考虑了相对湿度对气溶胶吸湿增长的影响,没有考虑雾滴的直接消光作用。     

CHARACTERISTICS AND TRENDS OF CLIMATIC EXTREMES IN CHINA DURING 1959–2014

The spatial and temporal variations of daily maximum temperature(Tmax), daily minimum temperature(Tmin), daily maximum precipitation(Pmax) and daily maximum wind speed(WSmax) were examined in China using Mann-Kendall test and linear regression method. The results indicated that for China as a whole, Tmax, Tmin and Pmax had significant increasing trends at rates of 0.15℃ per decade, 0.45℃ per decade and 0.58 mm per decade,respectively, while WSmax had decreased significantly at 1.18 m·s~(-1) per decade during 1959—2014. In all regions of China, Tmin increased and WSmax decreased significantly. Spatially, Tmax increased significantly at most of the stations in South China(SC), northwestern North China(NC), northeastern Northeast China(NEC), eastern Northwest China(NWC) and eastern Southwest China(SWC), and the increasing trends were significant in NC, SC, NWC and SWC on the regional average. Tmin increased significantly at most of the stations in China, with notable increase in NEC, northern and southeastern NC and northwestern and eastern NWC. Pmax showed no significant trend at most of the stations in China, and on the regional average it decreased significantly in NC but increased in SC, NWC and the mid-lower Yangtze River valley(YR). WSmax decreased significantly at the vast majority of stations in China, with remarkable decrease in northern NC, northern and central YR, central and southern SC and in parts of central NEC and western NWC. With global climate change and rapidly economic development, China has become more vulnerable to climatic extremes and meteorological disasters, so more strategies of mitigation and/or adaptation of climatic extremes,such as environmentally-friendly and low-cost energy production systems and the enhancement of engineering defense measures are necessary for government and social publics.     

Could the Recent Taal Volcano Eruption Trigger an El Ni?o and Lead to Eurasian Warming?

正The Taal Volcano in Luzon is one of the most active and dangerous volcanoes of the Philippines. A recent eruption occurred on 12 January 2020(Fig. 1a), and this volcano is still active with the occurrence of volcanic earthquakes. The eruption has become a deep concern worldwide, not only for its damage on local society, but also for potential hazardous consequences on the Earth's climate and environment.     

VARIABILITY OF INTER-ANNUAL RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN INDIAN OCEAN DIPOLE AND HUAXI REGION’S AUTUMN PRECIPITATION

The moving-window correlation analysis was applied to investigate the relationship between autumn Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) events and the synchronous autumn precipitation in Huaxi region, based on the daily precipitation, sea surface temperature (SST) and atmospheric circulation data from 1960 to 2012. The correlation curves of IOD and the early modulation of Huaxi region’s autumn precipitation indicated a mutational site appeared in the 1970s. During 1960 to 1979, when the IOD was in positive phase in autumn, the circulations changed from a “W” shape to an ”M” shape at 500 hPa in Asia middle-high latitude region. Cold flux got into the Sichuan province with Northwest flow, the positive anomaly of the water vapor flux transported from Western Pacific to Huaxi region strengthened, caused precipitation increase in east Huaxi region. During 1980 to 1999, when the IOD in autumn was positive phase, the atmospheric circulation presented a “W” shape at 500 hPa, the positive anomaly of the water vapor flux transported from Bay of Bengal to Huaxi region strengthened, caused precipitation ascend in west Huaxi region. In summary, the Indian Ocean changed from cold phase to warm phase since the 1970s, caused the instability of the inter-annual relationship between the IOD and the autumn rainfall in Huaxi region.     

ANALYSIS OF “BIMODAL PATTERN” STORM ACTIVITY CHARACTERISTICS OF THE BAY OF BENGAL

Storms that occur at the Bay of Bengal (BoB) are of a bimodal pattern, which is different from that of the other sea areas. By using the NCEP, SST and JTWC data, the causes of the bimodal pattern storm activity of the BoB are diagnosed and analyzed in this paper. The result shows that the seasonal variation of general atmosphere circulation in East Asia has a regulating and controlling impact on the BoB storm activity, and the “bimodal period” of the storm activity corresponds exactly to the seasonal conversion period of atmospheric circulation. The minor wind speed of shear spring and autumn contributed to the storm, which was a crucial factor for the generation and occurrence of the “bimodal pattern” storm activity in the BoB. The analysis on sea surface temperature (SST) shows that the SSTs of all the year around in the BoB area meet the conditions required for the generation of tropical cyclones (TCs). However, the SSTs in the central area of the bay are higher than that of the surrounding areas in spring and autumn, which facilitates the occurrence of a “two-peak” storm activity pattern. The genesis potential index (GPI) quantifies and reflects the environmental conditions for the generation of the BoB storms. For GPI, the intense low-level vortex disturbance in the troposphere and high-humidity atmosphere are the sufficient conditions for storms, while large maximum wind velocity of the ground vortex radius and small vertical wind shear are the necessary conditions of storms.     

LOW-FREQUENCY CIRCULATION AND EXTENDED-RANGE FORECAST IN CONNECTION WITH AUTUMN EXTREME HEAVY RAINFALL PROCESS IN HAINAN

Observed daily precipitation data from the National Meteorological Observatory in Hainan province and daily data from the National Centers for Environmental Prediction/National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCEP/NCAR) reanalysis-2 dataset from 1981 to 2014 are used to analyze the relationship between Hainan extreme heavy rainfall processes in autumn (referred to as EHRPs) and 10–30 d low-frequency circulation. Based on the key low-frequency signals and the NCEP Climate Forecast System Version 2 (CFSv2) model forecasting products, a dynamical-statistical method is established for the extended-range forecast of EHRPs. The results suggest that EHRPs have a close relationship with the 10–30 d low-frequency oscillation of 850 hPa zonal wind over Hainan Island and to its north, and that they basically occur during the trough phase of the low-frequency oscillation of zonal wind. The latitudinal propagation of the low-frequency wave train in the middle-high latitudes and the meridional propagation of the low-frequency wave train along the coast of East Asia contribute to the ‘north high (cold), south low (warm)’ pattern near Hainan Island, which results in the zonal wind over Hainan Island and to its north reaching its trough, consequently leading to EHRPs. Considering the link between low-frequency circulation and EHRPs, a low-frequency wave train index (LWTI) is defined and adopted to forecast EHRPs by using NCEP CFSv2 forecasting products. EHRPs are predicted to occur during peak phases of LWTI with value larger than 1 for three or more consecutive forecast days. Hindcast experiments for EHRPs in 2015–2016 indicate that EHRPs can be predicted 8–24 d in advance, with an average period of validity of 16.7 d.     

AN ATTRIBUTION ANALYSIS OF CHANGES IN POTENTIAL EVAPOTRANSPIRATION IN THE BEIJING–TIANJIN–HEBEI REGION UNDER CLIMATE CHANGE

Based on the measurements obtained at 64 national meteorological stations in the Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei (BTH) region between 1970 and 2013, the potential evapotranspiration (ET0) in this region was estimated using the Penman–Monteith equation and its sensitivity to maximum temperature (Tmax), minimum temperature (Tmin), wind speed (Vw), net radiation (Rn) and water vapor pressure (Pwv) was analyzed, respectively. The results are shown as follows. (1) The climatic elements in the BTH region underwent significant changes in the study period. Vw and Rn decreased significantly, whereas Tmin, Tmax and Pwv increased considerably. (2) In the BTH region, ET0 also exhibited a significant decreasing trend, and the sensitivity of ET0 to the climatic elements exhibited seasonal characteristics. Of all the climatic elements, ET0 was most sensitive to Pwv in the fall and winter and Rn in the spring and summer. On the annual scale, ET0 was most sensitive to Pwv, followed by Rn, Vw, Tmax and Tmin. In addition, the sensitivity coefficient of ET0 with respect to Pwv had a negative value for all the areas, indicating that increases in Pwv can prevent ET0 from increasing. (3) The sensitivity of ET0 to Tmin and Tmax was significantly lower than its sensitivity to other climatic elements. However, increases in temperature can lead to changes in Pwv and Rn. The temperature should be considered the key intrinsic climatic element that has caused the "evaporation paradox" phenomenon in the BTH region.     

Revisiting the Concentration Observations and Source Apportionment of Atmospheric Ammonia

正While China’s Air Pollution Prevention and Control Action Plan on particulate matter since 2013 has reduced sulfate significantly, aerosol ammonium nitrate remains high in East China. As the high nitrate abundances are strongly linked with ammonia, reducing ammonia emissions is becoming increasingly important to improve the air quality of China. Although satellite data provide evidence of substantial increases in atmospheric ammonia concentrations over major agricultural regions, long-term surface observation of ammonia concentrations are sparse. In addition, there is still no consensus on     

全球贸易隐含碳变化及其影响分析

基于最新的GTAP8 (Global Trade Analysis Project）数据库,使用投入产出法,分析了2004年到2007年全球贸易变化下南北集团贸易隐含碳变化及对全球碳排放的影响。结果显示,随着发展中国家进出口规模扩张,全球贸易隐含碳流向的重心逐渐向发展中国家转移。2004年到2007年,发达国家高端设备制造业和服务业出口以及发展中国家资源、能源密集型行业及中低端制造业出口的趋势加强,该过程的生产转移导致全球碳排放增长4.15亿t,占研究时段全球贸易隐含碳增量的63%。未来发展中国家的出口隐含碳比重还将进一步提高。贸易变化带来的南北集团隐含碳流动变化对全球应对气候变化行动的影响日益突出,发达国家对此负有重要责任。     

COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF VARIOUS DATA OF AIR–SEA TEMPERATURE DIFFERENCE AND ITS VARIATION ACROSS SOUTH CHINA SEA IN THE PAST 35 YEARS

Using the International Comprehensive Ocean-Atmosphere Data Set(ICOADS) and ERA-Interim data, spatial distributions of air-sea temperature difference(ASTD) in the South China Sea(SCS) for the past 35 years are compared,and variations of spatial and temporal distributions of ASTD in this region are addressed using empirical orthogonal function decomposition and wavelet analysis methods. The results indicate that both ICOADS and ERA-Interim data can reflect actual distribution characteristics of ASTD in the SCS, but values of ASTD from the ERA-Interim data are smaller than those of the ICOADS data in the same region. In addition, the ASTD characteristics from the ERA-Interim data are not obvious inshore. A seesaw-type, north-south distribution of ASTD is dominant in the SCS; i.e., a positive peak in the south is associated with a negative peak in the north in November, and a negative peak in the south is accompanied by a positive peak in the north during April and May. Interannual ASTD variations in summer or autumn are decreasing. There is a seesaw-type distribution of ASTD between Beibu Bay and most of the SCS in summer, and the center of large values is in the Nansha Islands area in autumn. The ASTD in the SCS has a strong quasi-3a oscillation period in all seasons, and a quasi-11 a period in winter and spring. The ASTD is positively correlated with the Nio3.4 index in summer and autumn but negatively correlated in spring and winter.     

Retrieval of outgoing longwave radiation from COMS narrowband infrared imagery

Hourly outgoing longwave radiation(OLR) from the geostationary satellite Communication Oceanography Meteorological Satellite(COMS) has been retrieved since June 2010. The COMS OLR retrieval algorithms are based on regression analyses of radiative transfer simulations for spectral functions of COMS infrared channels. This study documents the accuracies of OLRs for future climate applications by making an intercomparison of four OLRs from one single-channel algorithm(OLR12.0using the 12.0 μm channel) and three multiple-channel algorithms(OLR10.8+12.0using the 10.8 and 12.0 μm channels; OLR6.7+10.8using the 6.7 and 10.8 μm channels; and OLR All using the 6.7, 10.8, and 12.0 μm channels). The COMS OLRs from these algorithms were validated with direct measurements of OLR from a broadband radiometer of the Clouds and Earth's Radiant Energy System(CERES) over the full COMS field of view [roughly(50°S–50°N, 70°–170°E)] during April 2011.Validation results show that the root-mean-square errors of COMS OLRs are 5–7 W m-2, which indicates good agreement with CERES OLR over the vast domain. OLR6.7+10.8and OLR All have much smaller errors(～ 6 W m-2) than OLR12.0and OLR10.8+12.0(～ 8 W m-2). Moreover, the small errors of OLR6.7+10.8and OLR All are systematic and can be readily reduced through additional mean bias correction and/or radiance calibration. These results indicate a noteworthy role of the6.7 μm water vapor absorption channel in improving the accuracy of the OLRs. The dependence of the accuracy of COMS OLRs on various surface, atmospheric, and observational conditions is also discussed.
