厦门地区1995年6月8—9日大暴雨天气成因分析

１９９５年６月８￣９日闽南局部地区大暴雨主要是受南侵的冷空气和９５０２号热带风暴的共同影响而产生。该冷空气来源于整个西北地区和青藏高原东部，范围较大，由于受云贵高原地形的影响，槽在东移过程中表现出如下特点：大槽发生倾斜、断裂，然后又在沿海地区合并；大槽的结构特征为垂直方向同相位；在华南形成中尺度热带云团随西南气流北上影响闽南地区。与此同时，９５０２号热带风暴穿过台湾海峡与槽前云系相互作用。上述原因

Low‐dimensional representation of error covariance

Ensemble and reduced‐rank approaches to prediction and assimilation rely on low‐dimensional approximations of the estimation error covariances. Here stability properties of the forecast/analysis cycle for linear, time‐independent systems are used to identify factors that cause the steady‐state analysis error covariance to admit a low‐dimensional representation. A useful measure of forecast/analysis cycle stability is the bound matrix , a function of the dynamics, observation operator and assimilation method. Upper and lower estimates for the steady‐state analysis error covariance matrix eigenvalues are derived from the bound matrix. The estimates generalize to time‐dependent systems. If much of the steady‐state analysis error variance is due to a few dominant modes, the leading eigenvectors of the bound matrix approximate those of the steady‐state analysis error covariance matrix. The analytical results are illustrated in two numerical examples where the Kalman filter is carried to steady state. The first example uses the dynamics of a generalized advection equation exhibiting non‐modal transient growth. Failure to observe growing modes leads to increased steady‐state analysis error variances. Leading eigenvectors of the steady‐state analysis error covariance matrix are well approximated by leading eigenvectors of the bound matrix. The second example uses the dynamics of a damped baroclinic wave model. The leading eigenvectors of a lowest‐order approximation of the bound matrix are shown to approximate well the leading eigenvectors of the steady‐state analysis error covariance matrix.     

新疆冬春季强降水过程的水汽来源及输送特征分析

利用常规观测资料和6 h一次的NCEP 1°×1°再分析场资料对新疆2015年2月12—14日北疆暴雪过程和2015年5月17—21日南疆暴雨过程的环流形势和主要影响系统进行分析,并基于HYSPLIT模式模拟的后向轨迹分析强降水的水汽来源和输送特征。结果表明:1) 2次强降水过程均发生在高空低槽东移,低层有低涡,地面有锋面气旋,高空有辐散的天气背景下。2)冬季暴雪过程中,北疆水汽主要源自西亚和中亚地区。其中源自西亚地区的干气块下沉到近地面时从下垫面获得水汽,对强降雪的贡献最大;其次是起源于中亚西南部地区近地层的湿气块对强降雪的贡献。3)春季暴雨过程中,南疆的水汽主要来自中亚的哈萨克斯坦。其中来自哈萨克斯坦南部上空的干空气下沉到近地层时从下垫面获得水汽,对强降雨的贡献最大;其次是源自哈萨克斯坦东部和东南部对流层低层的湿气块对强降雨的贡献大。4) 2次强降水过程中水汽主要来自陆地而不是海洋,气块在近地层移动或下沉到近地层时,下垫面水汽蒸发使气块变湿,是强降水的水汽主要贡献者;表明春季和冬季的水汽输送通道与夏季来自阿拉伯海等低纬的水汽通道不同。     

西北太平洋台风频数异常及其与海气通量的关系

利用1984-2002年联合台风预警中心(JTWC)最佳路径台风资料、全球海洋客观分析海气通量(OAFluxes)资料和NCAR/NCEP-2再分析资料,使用SVD等统计方法,对西北太平洋台风频数与低层大气环流及海气通量异常之间的关系进行了研究,结果发现150°E以东的低纬海区是台风频数年际异常变化最显著的区域,台风频数与低层大气环流异常、潜热通量和短波辐射通量变化有着密切的联系:当副热带高压强度减弱(增强)、脊线偏北(南)、主体东移(西伸)时,季风槽加深东进至160°E(西退至140°E),低纬的纬向西风加强(减弱),海洋输送给大气较多(少)潜热通量,盛行的纬向西风携带着季风槽南侧的暖湿水汽与副热带高压南缘偏东气流的水汽输送在150°E以东(以西)的低纬海区辐合,150°E以东辐合上升的暖湿气团吸收的短波辐射偏多(少),有利于(不利于)形成高温高湿的不稳定结构,台风能量不断(不易)积累,在低层强(弱)辐合、高层强(弱)辐散的环境场作用下,有利于(不利于)台风在150°E以东的低纬海区的生成。     

Active and passive ocean regimes in a low‐order climate model

A low‐order climate model is studied which combines the Lorenz‐84 model for the atmosphere on a fast time scale and a box model for the ocean on a slow time scale. In this climate model, the ocean is forced strongly by the atmosphere. The feedback to the atmosphere is weak. The behaviour of the model is studied as a function of the feedback parameters. We find regions in parameter space with dominant atmospheric dynamics, i.e., a passive ocean, as well as regions with an active ocean, where the oceanic feedback is essential for the qualitative dynamics. The ocean is passive if the coupled system is fully chaotic. This is illustrated by comparing the Kaplan–Yorke dimension and the correlation dimension of the chaotic attractor to the values found in the uncoupled Lorenz‐84 model. The active ocean behaviour occurs at parameter values between fully chaotic and stable periodic motion. Here, intermittency is observed. By means of bifurcation analysis of periodic orbits, the intermittent behaviour, and the rôle played by the ocean model, is clarified. A comparison of power spectra in the active ocean regime and the passive ocean regime clearly shows an increase of energy in the low frequency modes of the atmospheric variables. The results are discussed in terms of itinerancy and quasi‐stationary states observed in realistic atmosphere and climate models.

Modelling snowdrift sublimation and its effect on the moisture budget of the atmospheric boundary layer

A one‐dimensional atmospheric surface layer model including turbulent diffusion and gravitational settling of suspended snow particles is used to simulate vertical profiles of snowdrift sublimation rates and the associated effects on the humidity and temperature profiles in the lowest 10 m. The simulations show that the thermodynamic feedback effects associated with snowdrift sublimation, i.e., strong increases in humidity and cooling, can significantly reduce the snowdrift sublimation rate, in particular in strong winds when large numbers of particles are being suspended. This negative feedback occurs because snowdrift sublimation depends on the undersaturation and temperature. Mechanisms that take away moisture from the surface layer, such as entrainment or horizontal advection of dry air, tend to weaken this feedback and enhance modelled snowdrift sublimation as the air generally remains undersaturated. Near the surface, however, the thermodynamic feedbacks dominate in strong winds, reducing the upward moisture flux from the surface. Then, snowdrift sublimation is the main contributor to the upward moisture flux at 10 m. Interestingly, in strong winds, the simulated total upward moisture flux in snowdrifting conditions is less than that in similar non‐drifting conditions. Hence, the model results indicate that occurrence of snowdrift sublimation may, counterintuitively, eventually lead to a reduction of the surface‐atmosphere moisture transport.     

2019年11月西北太平洋热带气旋生成频数异常偏多的成因分析

基于1979—2019年NCEP-DOE再分析资料、中国气象局发布的热带气旋(TC)最佳路径数据集和HadISST全球海温资料等,研究了2019年11月西北太平洋TC生成频数异常偏多的可能原因。结果表明:2019年11月西太平洋副热带高压(WPSH)强度偏强、脊线偏北,其南侧偏东气流与越赤道气流交汇形成的西北太平洋热带辐合带偏强偏北、向东延伸,为TC生成创造了低层强的辐合、高层强的辐散、小的风速垂直切变以及对流层中层充足的水汽等有利的大尺度环境条件,导致TC生成频次异常偏多、生成位置偏北偏东。采用EOF方法进行分析,发现11月东亚大槽年际变化的第二模态为南北反位相型分布,对应的第二特征向量(PC2)与WPSH脊线指数具有高度一致性,且与同期西北太平洋上空TC生成频数呈显著的正相关关系。即当11月东亚大槽北部加深而南部变浅时,对应WPSH脊线偏北,TC生成频数偏多,表明深秋季节西风带槽脊活动对西北太平洋TC生成有一定的调制作用。进一步的诊断分析揭示了北太平洋海温异常可能是造成东亚大槽经向偶极子型变异的重要因子。     

LARGE-SCALE CIRCULATION CONDITIONS AFFECTINGTHE TYPHOON FORMATION OVER THENORTHWEST PACIFIC

A contrasting study of the large-scale circulation features responsible for months with many typhoons and months with tew typhoons has revealed that the frequency of typhoon formation over the Northwest Pacific is related to the following conditions:Over the Northwest Pacific, a well-defined ITCZ (Intertropical Convergence Zone) extending eastward to 160°E was displaced to 20°N. At 200 mb, an extensive anomalous anticyclonic circulation prevails over the western and central Pacific. The condition characteristic of a break in the monsoon prevailed in India. The monsoon trough at 500 mb and at the surface over the Indian Peninsula was relatively weak and was accompanied by higher-than-normal rainfall in the northern part of India and lower-than-normal rainfall over the peninsula. In addition, the polar vortex tends to be weak and move to the side of the Northern Hemisphere, opposite to the North Pacific. Finally, abnormally warm water was observed over the Central and Eastern Pacific and abnormally cold     

A troposphere–stratosphere–mesosphere general circulation model with parameterization of gravity waves: climatology and sensitivity studies

The climatology of the troposphere–stratosphere–mesosphere model of the Institute for Numerical Mathematics (INM) with the uppermost level at 0.003 hPa is presented. This model is vertically extended from the upper level of 10 hPa for the earlier version, and a drag parameterization due to internal gravity waves (GW) is included. The model describes the main features of the mesospheric circulation: decreasing and reversion of westerly and easterly winds, equatorward shift of the westerly wind maximum with height and reversal of the meridional temperature gradient in the upper mesosphere. The model underestimates to some extent the amplitude of wave number 1 for stationary waves in the winter hemisphere. The same holds for the internal low‐frequency variability in the winter stratosphere. The sensitivity of the model climate is studied with respect to the inclusion of orographic gravity wave drag and the variation of the source height of internal gravity waves.     

南海-西北太平洋季风槽中热带气旋群发的研究 Ⅰ.热带气旋群发的基本特征

应用1979—2005年西北太平洋热带气旋(TC)资料和NCEP/DOE AMIP-Ⅱ逐日再分析资料,在逐年分析南海-西北太平洋季风槽中TC(简称MTTC)生成及其群发的基础上,揭示季风槽中MTTC群发的基本特征,得到几点结论:(1)年平均MTTC群发过程3~4次,8月是MTTC群发最多的月份,占30%,9月次之,而5月份最少,仅占4%;(2)MTTC群发异常偏少年MTTC生成海区范围较常年偏小,位置较正常年份偏南、偏西;而异常偏多年MTTC生成海区范围较大,位置较常年偏北、偏东;(3)MTTC群发主要形成于4种季风槽环流模态中,即季风槽东伸型、反向季风槽型、三气流型、西太平洋季风槽型,其中,季风槽东伸型是MTTC群发的主要环流模态,占60.0%,西太平洋季风槽出现MTTC群发最少,仅占4.8%;(4)季风槽强度和形态的异常可能造成MTTC群发异常,而MTTC群发异常致使MTTC年频数异常。     

相似天气背景下深圳两次前汛期降水过程对比分析

在高空槽和低层切变线配合的相似环流背景下,2019年4月11日深圳出现短时暴雨(简称"2019年过程"),2020年4月11日以稳定性弱降水为主(简称"2020年过程"),利用ERA5再分析数据等对深圳这两次前汛期降水过程进行了对比分析。结果表明,2019年过程,温湿层结等对流条件和高空辐散条件较好,低空辐合动力条件相对较弱,在边界层辐合线触发下产生明显的中尺度对流系统(mesoscale convective system,MCS)活动,导致深圳出现短时强降水和雷暴大风。2020年过程,低层辐合等动力条件较好,但对流条件相对较弱,降水以稳定性降水为主。对比分析说明,温度和湿度层结条件较动力条件对华南前汛期MCS生成作用更为明显,强对流发生前12 h深圳等珠三角地区Q矢量辐合明显,对MCS活动以及强对流发生有较好的指示意义。

Temporal evolution of innovation and residual statistics in the ECMWF variational data assimilation systems

The temporal evolution of innovation and residual statistics of the ECMWF 3D‐ and 4D‐Var data assimilation systems have been studied. First, the observational method is applied on an hourly basis to the innovation sequences in order to partition the perceived forecast error covariance into contributions from observation and background errors. The 4D‐Var background turns out to be ignificantly more accurate than the background in the 3D‐Var. The estimated forecast error variance associated with the 4D‐Var background trajectory increases over the assimilation window. There is also a marked broadening of the horizontal error covariance length scale over the assimilation window. Second, the standard deviation of the residuals, i.e., the fit of observations to the analysis is studied on an hourly basis over the assimilation window. This fit should, in theory, reveal the effect of model error in a strong constraint variational problem. A weakly convex curve is found for this fit implying that the perfect model assumption of 4D‐Var may be violated with as short an assimilation window as six hours. For improving the optimality of variational data assimilation systems, a sequence of retunes are needed, until the specified and diagnosed error covariances agree.     

信风张弛对赤道东、西太平洋斜压扰动的影响研究

利用一个斜压两层海洋模式解析地研究了赤道东、西太平洋对信风张弛的响应特征.研究表明:当赤道上空偏东信风张弛或转为西风时,由于打破了海洋原来的平衡关系,结果在赤道东、西太平洋的温跃层附近产生了扰动并开始传播.西太平洋温跃层附近的扰动向东传播的速度远大于东太平洋扰动向西传播的速度,而且与东太平洋温跃层扰动向西传播的狭窄范围和小振幅相比,西太平洋温跃层扰动向东传播的范围和强度均很大.这与最近几次强厄尔尼诺增暖事件暖水从赤道西太平洋向赤道中、东太平洋的迅速传播特征是一致的.     

2022年夏季中国高温的环流异常特征

基于美国国家海洋和大气管理局(National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration,NOAA)全球范围扩展重建海面温度资料第5版本(Extended Reconstructed Sea Surface Temperature version 5,ERSSTv5),以及美国国家环境预报中心和国家大气研究中心NCEP(National Centers for Environmental Prediction)/NCAR(National Center for Atmospheric Research)逐月全球再分析资料,采用相关、回归、合成及物理量诊断等方法,对2022年夏季中国大范围高温相关环流异常的可能成因进行了分析。结果表明:(1)2022年夏季南亚高压偏强并分别向东、西方向扩展,西太平洋副热带高压(以下简称“副高”)异常偏强西伸。2022夏季为拉尼娜(La Niña)年,但热带大西洋垂直上升环流相对西太平洋更强,且热带印度洋到西太平洋热带垂直上升环流异常也偏强。(2)2022年热带大西洋、印度洋到西太平洋上空垂直环流异常和La Niña共同作用,使得夏季南亚高压和西太平洋副高极端异常。La Niña和印度洋到西太平洋垂直环流异常有利于南亚高压和西太平洋副高的偏强西伸;热带大西洋环流异常则既有利于南亚高压的加强及东扩,也有利于西太平洋副高偏强西伸。(3)印度洋到西太平洋垂直环流主要通过局地经向哈得来(Hadley)环流影响青藏高原到中国东部的环流异常,表现为青藏高原到中国东部中低层为显著的辐散异常;热带大西洋则通过引起纬向风异常(急流异常),激发遥相关波列并向下游传播,进而影响青藏高原到中国东部地区的环流异常。     

东亚冬季气温的年际变化特征及其与海温和海冰异常的关系

通过谐波分析的方法,对东亚31个冬季(1980—2010年)的气温提取年际变化分量(周期小于8a部分)进行EOF分析。结果发现:在年际变化的时间尺度上,东亚冬季气温表现为高纬模态和低纬模态2个主要模态,它们一起可以解释总方差73%的变化。进一步分析表明,在年际变化尺度上,与气温变化的高纬模态相联系的大气环流表现为显著的北极涛动(AO)负位相分布,海平面气压场上西伯利亚高压和阿留申低压北移,对流层中层东亚大槽西移,高层西风急流向西北方向移动;副热带北太平洋和阿拉斯加湾的海表面温度(SST)变化呈偶极子振荡分布,这种准两年的周期振荡对这一模态的出现有一定的预示意义。而与气温变化的低纬模态相联系的大气环流表现为类AO正位相分布,与之相关的西伯利亚高压和阿留申低压南移,对流层中层东亚大槽东移,高层的西风急流则是向东南方向移动;赤道东太平洋的SST异常可能对这一模态的形成有一定的作用,而东亚近海的SST则更多是被动地改变。此外,海冰异常变化与东亚冬季气温变化的联系主要体现在:在前夏和前秋,东西伯利亚海-波弗特海海冰异常减少(增加)对应着随后东亚冬季气温变化的高纬模态(低纬模态),而冬季东亚气温变化的高纬模态(低纬模态)又与后期春季北极东半球的海冰异常增加(减少)具有较好的相关性,此外白令海和鄂霍次克海的海冰异常变化是伴随东亚冬季气温变化产生的。
