西太平洋热带地区大气能量收支分析——中美西太平洋海-气合作考察观测事实之二

依据1986年2月8—14日中美西太平洋海气合作考察资料,计算了西太平洋热带海域(140—160°E,18°N—14°S)内的大气能量收支。结果表明,该区域的能量是由外界向区域内输送的。在东、南、西、西北四个边界积上以能量输到为主,只有在东北边界上,以输出为主。该区内的能量输送是以平均输送为主,扰动输送的数量级较小。考察期间,该区域内大气有明显的增温现象。     

1986年冬季热带西太平洋区域性大气总能量收支

本文采用中美海-气合作考察第一次航程(1986.1.9—15,2.1—14)和若干站点的海洋气象资料,计算了热带西太平洋不同区域的大气湿静力能量的水平输送和局地变化、大气非绝热加热诸分量以及各区域海面与大气的热交换项。分析指出,在考察期间热带西太平洋上空,西部区是大气能量水平输送的能汇区,而东、中部区则反之。同时,热带西太平洋上空大气和海洋下垫面是个热源区,尤以西部区最为明显。由此可知,热带西太平洋大气能量收支具有明显的区域性差异,其西部区是较强的大气和海洋下垫面的热源区域,是热量、能量积存最多的地区。     

热带西太平洋大气非绝热加热的初步分析——中美西太平洋海-气合作考察观测事实之四

本文利用1986年2月8—14日中美海-气考察船上的气象资料以及其它海洋气象站的报告,计算了热带西太平洋大气加热的诸分量,如辐射加热项、凝结加热项,感热加热项等。最后诊断出冬季考察时期该区域的大气加热场是个热源,其大气总加热强度为0.57℃/天。     

热带西太平洋海面的热量收支——中美西太平洋海-气合作考察观测事实之三

本文根据1986年2月8—14日中国“向阳红14号”考察船以及其它的船泊水文气象观测资料,计算了西太平洋热带海面(140—160°E、18°S—14°N)的能量收支各分量。计算结果表明,这个期间内该海面所获得的热量净收入的大小与赤道辐合带低值系统的增强或减弱有关;海面向大气输送的热量主要是以潜热通量输送方式进行的;考察海域内相当部分海面,供给大气能量大于它从大气接收的能量,其中最明显的地区出现在西太平洋热带地区(10°N附近),而不是在赤道地区。     

热带西太平洋秋季低空大气温度层结的基本特征

本文利用现场考察资料,分析了热带西太平洋低空大气温度层结基本特征。发现其边界层内往往有多个弱逆温层存在,在2000—3000m之间也常有弱逆温层存在。     

热带西太平洋区域性大气能量收支的初步分析

本文探讨了中美西太平洋海-气相互作用合作考察期间，热带海洋不同海域上空大气能量的水平输送和局地变化。我们把热带西太平洋划分成三个多边形（东、中和西部区），分别计算了1986年1月9—15日、2月1—14日逐日三个海区上感热、潜热和位能的平均、扰动输送项、局地变化项以及各边界面上大气能量的输送。得出西太平洋西部海域上空大气柱内能量的平均输送是由外界向区内输送，而中、东部海域则相反。这表明西太平洋西部热带海洋上大气柱内增温明显，而中、东部则不然。另外，大气能量局地变化的区域性差异，其量值比输送项值要小些。     

热带西太平洋边界层大气的多逆温层特征

本文主要利用第四航次“中美热带西太平洋海气相互作用联合调查”所获得的海洋水文气象及低空大气温度探测资料,分析了热带西太平洋暖水区边界层大气层结特征,指出春季热带西太平洋边界层大气具有多逆温层的层结特征。逆温层个数大多为4个左右,厚度多在30m以上,最厚336m。这一研究结果是关于热带大洋边界层结构观测研究的重要补充。      

西太平洋热带海域的水汽和云的变化特性

本文依据1987年9—11月西太平洋热带海域海洋大气综合考察中双波长微波辐射计观测系统和红外窗区辐射计所得到的观测资料,分析研究了考察海域的水汽和云的变化特性,得到了一些有意义的结果。双波长微波辐射计观测系统可以获得水汽场的动态变化和云中液态水的演变;西太平洋海域的个例显示出辐合区的垂直气柱水汽含量比非辐合区的明显大的特征;用红外亮度温度可以近似估计晴空大气垂直气柱水汽含量。     

西太平洋热带海域水汽和云中液态水含量的统计特征

利用船载双通道(1.35cm和8.6mm)微波辐射计两次(1985年12月—1986年1月,1986年10月—12月)对西太平洋热带海域的大气可降水和云中液态水含量进行了实地考察,本文根据考察结果,首次分析并给出了该海域大气可降水和云的各种统计特征。     

热带西太平洋边界层的多层结构分析

本文主要利用第一次“中美热带西太平洋海气相互作用联合调查”所获得的海洋水文、气象及大气探测资料,分析了热带西太平洋暖水区边界层大气层结特征,指出热带西太平洋边界层大气具有多层结构和多层送温现象,边界层内各层厚度及气温、位温、混合比随高度的变化趋势如下:超绝热层位于地面以上50m左右,气温、位温、混合比迅速减小,系绝热不稳定层;第一层为混合层,平均厚度为351m,位温、混合比变化不明显;混合层上又是逆温层大多为30—100m厚,位温迅速增大,混合比迅速减小,系绝对稳定层;700—1000m为浅对流云活跃层,     

黄土高原塬区地表辐射和热量平衡观测与分析

利用2005年夏季黄土高原塬区陆面过程野外试验(LOPEX05)的观测资料,初步分析了甘肃平凉黄土高原塬区地表辐射收支和热量平衡特征。结果显示,黄土高原塬区地面长波辐射大于大气长波辐射,典型晴天、阴天和雨天情况下两者平均差值分别为65,25和8 W.m-2;对于地气能量交换各个分量而言,黄土高原塬上和塬下在相同下垫面下的差别不大,但裸地和有植被的下垫面差别很明显;在白天,潜热在净辐射中所占的比重较大,其次是感热,最后是土壤热通量。对能量平衡中的储存项如热通量板上层土壤的热存储和植被冠层存储进行了估算,结果表明,土壤的热储存项在-30~70W.m-2之间,而植被的热能储存项在-10~25 W.m-2之间。在考虑估算的存储项之后,能量平衡散布图斜率由0.68提高到0.79,相关系数R由0.90提高到0.93,两者分别提高了11.0%和3.0%,并对能量不平衡有明显的改进,说明能量储存项在地表能量闭合中必须考虑。     

The transfer of physical quantities in QDPO and its relation to the interaction between the NH and SH Circulations

Based on the 1979 FGGE Level III b data, calculation is made of the transfer of sensible and latent heat and momentum due to a quasi-40-day periodic oscillation (QDPO) on a cross-equatorial meridional ver-tical cross-section, and analysis is done of the characteristics of the transfer at all phases of QDPO, with the following results obtained:1) During the monsoon’s QDPO activation and break phases, a strong transfer of sensible heat to the SH is felt in the upper troposphere over the Asian monsoon region; the conversion of perturbation effective potential into its kinetic energy attains its maximum at 500-300 hPa (15oN), serving as the source of kinetic energy for the quasi-40-day periodic perturbation; an intense transfer of potential energy is found above 200 hPa from the monsoon area to the SH to maintain the QDPO at the tropical latitudes;2) During the QDPO activation-break (and reverse) transitional phase the conversion of perturbation effective potential into kinetic energy reaches its maximum in the middle and lower troposphere over the SH middle latitudes and an appreciable lower transfer of potential energy occurs towards the SH tropical latitudes and the NH.3) The upper-tropospheric powerful transfer of westerly momentum caused by QDPO is discovered from the SH tropical latitudes to the NH, and the resulting momentum divergence and convergence are unfavorable for the maintenance of the seasonal mean fields of the NH tropical easterly and SH subtropical westerly winds.Finally possible synoptical processes responsible for QDPO are discussed together with its relation to the interaction between the circulations of both the hemispheres. It is found that QDPO is both the result of and medium for the interaction.     

Numerical simulations of the tropical air-sea planetary boundary layer

A one-dimensional numerical model of the planetary boundary layer was used to investigate thermal and kinetic energy budgets. The simulation experiments were based on two sets of data. The first set was based on a ‘typical’ June with climatological data extracted for the oceanic region slightly northeast of Barbados. The second set used data from the third phase of project BOMEX, for approximately the same area and time of year as the first set. Comparison with observations of three simulated elements (viz., sea surface temperature and wind and humidity at 6 m) which are important in determining the near-interface energy transports shows that:

1. the model is capable of realistic simulations of both ‘typical’ conditions, and conditions for a specific four-day period;
2. the model is capable of realistically simulating the differences between prevailing values of these parameters in the two cases (‘typical’ and specific four-day period).

The simulated interface fluxes are those of incoming and outgoing short- and long-wave radiation; transmitted radiation at -0.5 m in the ocean, sensible heat transfer into the ocean and air, and latent heat flux of evaporation. Comparison with observational analyses shows that the diurnal variations in net radiation and heat storage in the mixed layer are realistically simulated. The simulated values of evaporation are consistent with other estimates for both ‘typical’ conditions and specific conditions during this four-day period. The rate of heat storage varies between +51 and -37 percent of the diurnal maximum incoming radiation, and the evaporation varies between +16% and -13% of this term. The non-dimensional transfer coefficients (C _D, C_T, C_q) computed from the model show general agreement with the coefficients calculated from observations in the simulated region (Pondet al., 1971). The simulated vertical profiles of temperature are in general agreement with observed profiles, except in the uppermost portions of the atmospheric boundary layer where deviations of approximately 1.5C occur. Simulated vertical profiles of wind speed are generally consistent with observed profiles, with the largest deviations appearing to be of the order of 0.5 m s^-1. Simulated vertical profiles of the eddy fluxes of sensible heat, water vapor, and momentum are generally consistent with Bunker's (1970) aircraft-based measurements of these quantities. The time averages of these simulated profiles show regular decreases with height, while simulated profiles for specific hours of the day show intermediate maxima and minima, which are also seen in the measured profiles. The vertically integrated kinetic energy budgets of the modelled atmospheric layer are presented through the four terms of the kinetic energy budget, viz., the upper and the lower boundary drags, dissipation, and potential-to-kinetic conversion. The dominant terms in the atmospheric energy budgets are the production and dissipation terms, with kinetic energy being exported both to the overlying atmospheric layer and to the underlying oceanic layer at rates of about 2 to 6% of the production, respectively. Comparisons between the climatological and BOMEX simulations are presented. The vertically integrated humidity budgets are presented for the two simulation experiments. Under ‘typical’ conditions, the humidity budget reveals an upper boundary flux of about +29% of the lower boundary flux with the vertically integrated advective flux being -59% of the lower flux. For the specific four-day simulation, the upper boundary flux and advection are about +28 and -70%, respectively, of the lower boundary flux.     

空气热储存和垂直平流对干旱均匀裸土地表能量平衡的影响

利用"内蒙古微气象观测蒸发试验"的数据,估算了我国西北干旱区典型均匀裸土下垫面条件下的空气热储存和垂直平流输送,并分析了空气热储存项和垂直平流输送项对干旱区地表能量不闭合的影响。研究发现:由于干旱区温度梯度大,热力抬升作用较强,即使在均匀下垫面条件下也存在可观的垂直平流输送。在地表能量平衡方程中引入空气热储存项和垂直平流输送项之后,二者对能量不闭合的平均补偿分别达到1.0 W/m2和7.1 W/m2,闭合度分别提高2%和14%,地表能量不平衡残差平均值由26.4 W/m2减小到18.2 W/m2,地表能量闭合度由82%提升到98%,干旱区地表能量平衡有明显改善。     

盛夏我国东部地区热量平衡的个例计算

本文选取1959年7月23—26日4天正当高空副热带高压控制我国大陆时,对我国东部地区计算了能量方程中各项数值,以及各边界上的能量输送。计算表明,这个地区为能源区城,向外输送热量和水汽。至于在东、西、南、北四个边界上输送的情况有很大的差异,南界以输入为主;东界低层为输出,高层为输入。这种输送是由这个地区低空为大陆热低压,高空为副热带高压的环流特点所决定的。在热量输送中,扰动输送比平均输送为重要。在能量平衡中,支出项主要为平流输送和辐射冷却,而收入项主要是由下垫面向上输送感热和水汽潜热,大气本身的热量和水汽含量的变化在能量平衡中作用较小。湍流感热输送约为蒸发潜热输送的1.84倍。     

Heat transfer coefficients for leaves on orchard apple trees

The coefficient for heat transfer from apple tree leaves was measured from the energy balance of leaves which were prevented from transpiring by applying Vaseline (petroleum jelly). Vaseline had negligible effect on the absorption of short-wave radiation by the leaves. The Nusselt number (Nu) describing heat flux from a leaf in terms of its average temperature was related to Reynolds numbers (Re) in the range 10³ to 10⁴ by Nu = 0.46 Re^0.54 Pr^0.33, where Pr is the Prandtl number. This supports Landsberg and Powell's (1973) wind-tunnel results for transfer from leaves subject to mutual interference.     

Heat transport coefficients for constant energy flux models of broad leaves

Experimental determinations of the local heat transfer by forced convection from model leaves heated by a constant energy flux were made in the laboratory under laminar and turbulent flow conditions.The results are expressed in a logarithmic dimensionless plot of the local Nusselt number, Nu _d , against the local Reynolds number, Re _d . For the laminar case, Nu _d was only a linear function of Re _d ^1/2 downwind from the leading edge regions, although this relationship departed from that predicted theoretically due to the finite size and thickness of the model. For the turbulent case, a simple relationship between Nu _d and Re _d was found over a wide range of Reynolds numbers. The enhancement of heat transfer in the turbulent case depends primarily on the scale of turbulence rather than on the turbulent intensity.Past workers have discussed their results in relation to a factor , defined as the ratio between the heat transfer predicted by the Polhausen equation, and that measured. The results suggest that is not a unique parameter and may not be useful in describing the overall turbulent transfer process.     

中国西北干旱区戈壁下垫面夏季的热力输送

以敦煌戈壁站2004年6月和2008年8月的常规观测和超声观测为例,分析了西北干旱区戈壁下垫面夏季热力输送的一般过程及特征。首先评价了湍流通量的观测质量以及仪器观测的地表能量通量闭合问题,结果表明敦煌戈壁站的观测在白天总体较好。夏季地表能量通量的平均日变化显示,潜热通量整天都很小,可以忽略,白天到达地表的短波辐射以及地表向上的长波辐射非常强,地表净辐射主要转化为感热输送（敦煌戈壁站在中午时平均分别达380W·m-2以上和250W·m-2以上）;夜间土壤释放热量以平衡地表的辐射冷却,感热通量略低于0。白天时地表大气经常触发自由对流活动,影响动量通量的观测质量,并有效输送地表热力至上层大气中,有助于形成超厚大气边界层。分析了戈壁下垫面的动量粗糙度特征和热力粗糙度特征（敦煌戈壁站动量粗糙度约为0．6mm）,热力粗糙度基本小于动量粗糙度一个量级,这符合目前对干旱区戈壁下垫面热力输送特征的初步认识。
