近20年华北地区干旱期大气环流异常特征

利用NCAR/NCEP再分析资料和中国气象局整编的中国160站气温、降水月平均资料, 计算并分析了1951年1月-2000年10月中国华北地区Palmer drought severity index (PDSI)。研究表明:近50年来华北干旱有显著的年际和年代际变化。从20世纪80年代以来, 华北出现了持续性严重干旱现象; 另外, 华北地区干旱持续时间一般都在两年以上。华北夏季典型干旱年的前期 (冬季和春季) 及同期环流特征是:北半球中高纬度500hPa高度距平场出现EU型遥相关分布, 华北地区长期处于大陆暖高压控制下。     

江淮流域旱涝与大气遥相关经向波列路径特征的相关关系

本文研究了江淮流域旱涝的影响系统及其演变特征,揭示了江淮流域旱涝前期的环流异常及遥相关现象。本文提出了江淮流域旱涝与北半球遥相关经向波列路径、位相有内在联系,即江淮降水前期遥相关波主要表现为EU(欧亚型)、PNA(太平洋北美型)两种类型的交替增强现象。另外,江淮梅期各阶段(6～8月)关键影响系统相关程度的变化亦反映出EU与PNA型遥相关波列各自增强与衰弱的过程,且江淮流域降水与同期北半球500hPa高度场各阶段相关特征可较清晰地描述出梅雨期不同阶段关键环流系统相互配置的变化关系及其中高纬冷、暖空气的活动规律的图象。     

中国东部夏季不同雨带类型的海洋和环流特征差异

利用1951-2009年NCEP/NCAR再分析资料、UKMO HADISST1全球月海表温度及中国东部地区120站的月降水量资料,首先定义出能够客观表征中国东部夏季3种雨带类型的指数,然后分析了3种雨带分布类型海洋和大气环流特征的主要差异,并进一步分析了前期海洋背景的差异特征对夏季东亚环流关键系统的预测蕴示.结果表明:(1)3种雨带类型对应的前期冬季海洋信号比当年夏季强,其差异主要表现在:多雨带出现在北方地区的Ⅰ型对应的是北太平洋海温呈显著的正距平、暖池及东澳暖流为负距平、南太平洋西风漂流区为正距平;多雨带出现在黄淮地区的Ⅱ型对应的海温分布则与Ⅰ型完全相反;多雨带出现在长江及其以南地区的Ⅲ型对应的海温分布在北太平洋海域与Ⅰ型基本一致;(2)3种雨带类型对应的环流及水汽输送特征的差异主要表现在:Ⅲ型与Ⅰ型具有几乎完全相反的环流及水汽输送特征,当出现Ⅲ型时,东亚中高纬度有强盛的阻塞形势发展和维持,中高纬度的经向环流异常加强,同时西太平洋副热带高压偏强,位置偏西、偏南,该地区呈反气旋性距平环流,西太平洋副热带纬向水汽输送加强,而出现Ⅰ型时则相反;Ⅱ型与Ⅰ型的环流及水汽输送特征更接近,两者的主要差异是:当出现Ⅱ型时,西太平洋副热带地区呈反气旋性距平环流,而出现Ⅰ型时该地区呈气旋性距平环流;(3)前期冬季赤道中东太平洋海温和南太平洋西风漂流区的海温异常变化可以作为夏季西太平洋副热带高压预报的重要前兆信号.     

北半球冬季大气环流遥相关型的非线性特征

利用NCEP/NCAR再分析500 hPa高度场资料,采用EOF和非线性主成分分析(NLPCA,Nonlinear Principal Component Analysis),研究了北半球冬季大气环流遥相关型的非线性特征,并将两种分析的结果与实际观测相比较,结果表明:NLPCA在提取资料场序列的低维非线性相关结构方面比传统EOF有明显的优越性.北半球冬季大气环流的遥相关型有明显的非线性结构特征,特别是EU型和PNA型,当非线性主成分NLPC取正负极值时,EU和PNA型并不是呈现完全的反位相结构.NLPC取负极值时,EU型的活动中心位置比NLPC取正极值时位置偏西,特别是欧亚大陆中部的距平中心,负中心比正中心偏西,强度更强;PNA型的4个距平中心在NLPC取正极值时比负极值时更集中,副热带太平洋的正中心、北太平洋的负中心比NLPC取负极值时的反符号中心偏东,强度更强.     

北半球月平均环流异常与我国夏季月降水量异常之间关系的时空综合EOF分析

本文利用一种时空综合的经验正交函数（ＥＯＦ）方法探讨了我国夏季降水场与同期及前期北半球５００ｈＰａ环流场之间的关系。这种方法能够同时给出降水场的距平分布及其对应的同期和前期环流场距平分布型。分析了前三个特征向量场的空间结构，得到了三种不同降水异常分布型及其与之相应的同期和前期５００ｈＰａ环流异常型。结果发现，前期（冬季）５００ｈＰａ高度距平场在中高纬度地区有着同夏季几乎完全相反的分布特征，在这一特征下，我国东部夏季降水场有较一致的距平分布，此外，当前期冬季５００ｈＰａ出现ｗｐ型环流异常时，我国长江流域夏季降水会出现显著异常。     

2010年11月大气环流和天气分析

2010年11月大气环流主要特征是:北半球高纬度地区为单一极涡,极涡中心位于新地岛以北,强度比常年略偏强.中高纬环流呈三波型分布,其中欧洲大槽较常年同期偏强,东亚大槽强度接近常年同期.亚洲以正高度距平为主,只有西伯利亚地区呈现负距平,表明冷空气势力较常年同期偏弱.西北太平洋副热带高压面积接近常年同期,强度略偏弱,脊线位...     

近50年华北干旱的年代际和年际变化及大气环流特征

利用1948～2000年NCEP/NCAR再分析逐日及月平均位势高度、风、温度、垂直速度等物理量和中国气温、降水资料,分析近50年中国华北地区干旱的年代际、年际变化及其环流特征,并探讨1999和2000年华北地区持续干旱环流型及其成因.研究指出:20世纪80年代以来华北地区降水持续偏少,干旱强度有所增加,这与夏季200 hPa矢量风距平场亚洲中纬度西风环流加强,850 hPa风矢量距平场中国东部110～120°E范围内偏南气流比气候平均状况偏弱有关.夏季华北降水偏少的一种主要大气环流型是:500hPa位势高度场上40～50°N的欧亚大陆位势高度偏高并叠加欧亚(EU)遥相关型,华北大部分地区受高压控制.1999和2000年夏华北地区持续严重干旱的主要环流特征是:亚洲大陆高压持续发展、长期维持并相当稳定,华北地区上空受闭合暖性高压控制,高空暖性高压气流强烈下沉,引起空气绝热增温,近地面感热增加使得干旱区气温升高,下垫面非绝热强迫作用与大陆暖高压加强形成正反馈过程.     

大气环流异常对山东雨季降水的影响

利用1958～2003年NCEP/NCAR再分析资料,对山东旱涝年500hPa高度距平、高(200hPa)低(925hPa)层散度距平、OLR距平分布以及115～123°E山东东西边界范围内的平均垂直速度进行合成分析,并与华北旱涝年大气环流的分布特征进行了对比。结果发现:(1)北半球500hPa夏季存在的东亚-太平洋遥相关型(EAP)对山东夏季降水产生重要影响,山东涝年夏季500hPa呈现出EAP型,旱年呈负EAP型。(2)山东涝年,鄂霍茨克海高压春季偏强、夏季偏弱,山东上游易维持低压槽区,副高偏北,热带地区对流活动加强,Hadley和Walker环流加强,山东上空盛行上升运动。旱年与涝年的特征基本相反,只是鄂霍茨克海高压在春季和夏季均较常年偏强。(3)不同旱年(涝年)的500hPa特征与旱年(涝年)平均情况相似,只是有时距平中心位置和强度不同。特别是涝年,冷空气强度、入侵路径以及副高的位置均有差别。(4)华北旱涝年500hPa高度距平与山东不同。华北旱年500hPa欧亚大陆中高纬度呈现出EU遥相关分布,且华北涝年夏季鄂霍茨克海和朝鲜-日本地区位势高度变化不显著。(5)影响山东夏季降水的热带强迫源区主要位于热带印度洋、南海-热带西太平洋,两者实现遥相关的可能机制是热带强迫所激发的大尺度准定常Rossby波列的传播。     

中国南方冬季持续性温湿异常事件的分类和特征分析

利用1981-2010年中国测站逐日气温和降水异常序列,将中国南方冬季持续性异常事件分为冷湿、冷干、暖湿和暖干4类持续性异常事件,并用NCEP-DOE逐日再分析资料对各类持续性异常事件的环流特征进行了分析。结果表明,欧亚大陆中高纬度上空"北高南低"的异常环流形势使得温带急流减弱、副热带急流增强,有利于冷空气向南爆发;而中纬度地区"东高西低"的异常环流则对应西太平洋副热带高压增强北移和南支西风槽的活跃,有利于偏南风水汽输送达到中国南方地区,中国南方降水偏多。受南北异常环流的共同影响,中国南方冬季经常出现持续性异常天气,冷湿（低温雨雪冰冻）事件正是在上述两种异常环流型影响下发生的。因此,考虑与冷湿事件相联系的关键环流系统可能有助于提高中国南方冬季低温雨雪冰冻事件的预报能力。      

Changes in Mean and Extreme Temperature and Precipitation over the Arid Region of Northwestern China:Observation and Projection

This paper reports a comprehensive study on the observed and projected spatiotemporal changes in mean and extreme climate over the arid region of northwestern China, based on gridded observation data and CMIP5 simulations under the RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios. The observational results reveal an increase in annual mean temperature since 1961, largely attributable to the increase in minimum temperature. The annual mean precipitation also exhibits a significant increasing tendency. The precipitation amount in the most recent decade was greater than in any preceding decade since 1961. Seasonally,the greatest increase in temperature and precipitation appears in winter and in summer, respectively. Widespread significant changes in temperature-related extremes are consistent with warming, with decreases in cold extremes and increases in warm extremes. The warming of the coldest night is greater than that of the warmest day, and changes in cold and warm nights are more evident than for cold and warm days. Extreme precipitation and wet days exhibit an increasing trend, and the maximum number of consecutive dry days shows a tendency toward shorter duration. Multi-model ensemble mean projections indicate an overall continual increase in temperature and precipitation during the 21 st century. Decreases in cold extremes, increases in warm extremes, intensification of extreme precipitation, increases in wet days, and decreases in consecutive dry days, are expected under both emissions scenarios, with larger changes corresponding to stronger radiative forcing.

Characteristics of Temperature Change in China over the Last 2000 years and Spatial Patterns of Dryness/Wetness during Cold and Warm Periods

This paper presents new high-resolution proxies and paleoclimatic reconstructions for studying climate changes in China for the past 2000 years. Multi-proxy synthesized reconstructions show that temperature variation in China has exhibited significant 50–70-yr, 100–120-yr, and 200–250-yr cycles. Results also show that the amplitudes of decadal and centennial temperature variation were 1.3℃ and 0.7℃, respectively, with the latter significantly correlated with long-term changes in solar radiation, especially cold periods, which correspond approximately to sunspot minima. The most rapid warming in China occurred over AD 1870–2000, at a rate of 0.56°± 0.42℃(100 yr)~(-1); however, temperatures recorded in the 20 th century may not be unprecedented for the last 2000 years, as data show records for the periods AD 981–1100 and AD1201–70 are comparable to the present. The ensemble means of dryness/wetness spatial patterns in eastern China across all centennial warm periods illustrate a tripole pattern: dry south of 25°N, wet from 25°–30°N, and dry to the north of 30°N. However, for all centennial cold periods, this spatial pattern also exhibits a meridional distribution. The increase in precipitation over the monsoonal regions of China associated with the 20 th century warming can primarily be attributed to a mega El Nino–Southern Oscillation and the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation. In addition, a significant association between increasing numbers of locusts and dry/cold conditions is found in eastern China. Plague intensity also generally increases in concert with wetness in northern China, while more precipitation is likely to have a negative effect in southern China.     

TEMPERATURE,RAINFALL VARIATIONS AND THEIR ANOMALIES OVER CHINA UNDER THE COLD-WARM BACKGROUND IN THE 20TH CENTURY

In this study,the climate trend of the annual average air temperature and total annual rainfall inChina in the present century has been examined.It is noted that in the Northwest,the Northeast andNorth China the climate has become notably warmer this century but the rainfall trend has not beenevident,mainly negative.In the 1980s China's rainfall and temperature showed noticeable regionalfeatures: warm and dry in North China,cold and dry in the Southwest,warm and wet in theNortheast,cold and wet in the middle-lower reaches of the Changjiang River.Besides,the fourinterdecadal climate change features and ranges of this century have been studied.It is found that onthe scale of several decades there was considerably less rainfall in the most part of China in the warmbackground than in the cold background.The increase of temperature which started from the 1970smainly happened in the Northwest and Northeast,while to the south of the Huanghe River thetemperature increase did not even as great as in 1940s.The corresponding rainfall feature is that mostareas experienced much less rainfall except the area to the south of the Huanghe River and over theChangjiang and Huaihe River basin.     

Temperature and Precipitation Changes in China During the Holocene

We review here proxy records of temperature and precipitation in China during the Holocene, especially the last two millennia. The quality of proxy data, methodology of reconstruction, and uncertainties in reconstruction were emphasized in comparing different temperature and precipitation reconstruction and clarifying temporal and spatial patterns of temperature and precipitation during the Holocene. The Holocene climate was generally warm and wet. The warmest period occurred in 9.6-6.2 cal ka BP, whereas a period of maximum monsoon precipitation started at about 11.0 cal ka BP and lasted until about 8.0-5.0 cal ka BP. There were a series of millennial-scale cold or dry events superimposed on the general trend of climate changes. During past two millennia, a warming trend in the 20th century was clearly detected, but the warming magnitude was smaller than the maximum level of the Medieval Warm Period and the Middle Holocene. Cold conditions occurred over the whole of China during the Little Ice Age （AD 1400-AD 1900）, but the warming of the Medieval Warm Period （AD 900-AD 1300） was not distinct in China, especially west China. The spatial pattern of precipitation showed significant regional differences in China, especially east China. The modern warm period has lasted 20 years from 1987 to 2006. Bi-decadal oscillation in precipitation variability was apparent over China during the 20th century. Solar activity and volcanic eruptions both were major forcings governing the climate variability during the last millennium.

In this study,the climate trend of the annual average air temperature and total annual rainfall in China in the present century has been examined.It is noted that in the Northwest,the Northeast and North China the climate has become notably warmer this century but the rainfall trend has not been evident,mainly negative.In the 1980s China's rainfall and temperature showed noticeable regional features:warm and dry in North China,cold and dry in the Southwest,warm and wet in the Northeast,cold and wet in the middle-lower reaches of the Changjiang River.Besides,the four interdecadal climate change features and ranges of this century have been studied.It is found that on the scale of several decades there was considerably less rainfall in the most part of China in the warm background than in the cold background.The increase of temperature which started from the 1970s mainly happened in the Northwest and Northeast,while to the south of the Huanghe River the temperature increase did not even as great as in 1940s.The corresponding rainfall feature is that most areas experienced much less rainfall except the area to the south of the Huanghe River and over the Changjiang and Huaihe River basin.     

辽宁地区暖区和锋面暴雨个例对比分析

2013年7月1—2日,辽宁地区出现了持续时间较长的暴雨天气过程,此次过程可以分为3个阶段,其中包括两次暖区降水和一次冷锋锋面与暖区降水共存的过程,第一阶段的暖区降水和第三阶段的锋面降水形成了西北雨带,第二阶段的暖区降水形成了东南雨带。利用NCEP再分析资料、常规自动站观测资料、加密自动站观测资料和卫星资料,详细分析了此次过程中各阶段降水产生的机制以及锋面降水和暖区降水的主要物理差异。结果表明:暖区强降水主要出现在干线冷湿气团一侧或地面辐合线附近,并且由于暖区高温、高湿的特点,其产生的降水通常比锋面附近强,同时暖区降水与锋面降水在触发机制、中尺度环境条件、动力、热力结构等方面也存在着差异。     

2008年初南方雨雪冰冻期间降水过程的温湿异常

2008年1月10日—2月2日我国中南部地区发生了严重的低温雨雪冰冻灾害。该文分析此次过程的冷空气活动和水汽输送,比较两者在降水形成中的相对重要性。利用文中定义的两个参量,可以直接比较水汽和温度这两个量在降水中所起的作用,并比较两者作用的相对重要性。结果表明:在低层 (850 hPa及以下),我国中南部地区温度偏低、水汽偏少,但温度偏低对降水偏多的正贡献大于水汽偏少的负贡献,两者的净贡献为正,因此,冷空气活动主导降水。在较高层 (600 hPa及以上),中南部地区水汽偏多、温度偏高,但水汽偏多对降水的正贡献大于温度偏高的负贡献,因此,水汽输送主导降水。在中层 (700 hPa),干冷空气和暖湿空气混合导致,中南部地区水汽偏多、温度偏低,两者均有利于空气饱和,对降水均起正作用;计算结果显示,水汽的贡献略强于温度的贡献。     

基于树轮资料的天山和阿尔泰山历史气候变化序列集成重建研究

为了解天山和阿尔泰山长期气候变化特征，利用基于树轮资料的25条历史气候序列，集成重建了天山和阿尔泰山近150 a的年降水量和夏季气温变化情况。结果显示：20世纪上半叶是天山区域极端气候年份频现时期，而阿尔泰山极端气候年份在20世纪上下半叶分布数量相当且在19世纪下半叶相对较少。两个山系极端低值气候年份的一致性更好,且与部分历史记录吻合。天山在过去150 a内大致经历了5个偏干时期和5个偏湿时期，以及3个偏冷时期和3个偏暖时期；阿尔泰山则经历了5个偏干时期和6个偏湿时期，以及4个偏冷时期和4个偏暖时期。此外，除均存在2～6 a左右的变化周期外，天山年降水量重建序列存在27～30 a和38～39 a的变化周期，夏季平均气温重建序列存在10.5 a、53.5 a和63.7 a的变化周期；阿尔泰山夏季均温存在12.6 a的变化周期。分析表明，ENSO对天山和阿尔泰山年降水量有显著影响，而太阳黑子数与阿尔泰山夏季气温呈滞后负相关关系。     

An inter-comparison of regional climate models for Europe: model performance in present-day climate

The analysis of possible regional climate changes over Europe as simulated by 10 regional climate models within the context of PRUDENCE requires a careful investigation of possible systematic biases in the models. The purpose of this paper is to identify how the main model systematic biases vary across the different models. Two fundamental aspects of model validation are addressed here: the ability to simulate (1) the long-term (30 or 40 years) mean climate and (2) the inter-annual variability. The analysis concentrates on near-surface air temperature and precipitation over land and focuses mainly on winter and summer. In general, there is a warm bias with respect to the CRU data set in these extreme seasons and a tendency to cold biases in the transition seasons. In winter the typical spread (standard deviation) between the models is 1 K. During summer there is generally a better agreement between observed and simulated values of inter-annual variability although there is a relatively clear signal that the modeled temperature variability is larger than suggested by observations, while precipitation variability is closer to observations. The areas with warm (cold) bias in winter generally exhibit wet (dry) biases, whereas the relationship is the reverse during summer (though much less clear, coupling warm (cold) biases with dry (wet) ones). When comparing the RCMs with their driving GCM, they generally reproduce the large-scale circulation of the GCM though in some cases there are substantial differences between regional biases in surface temperature and precipitation.
