青藏高原隆升作用于大气临界高度的数值研究

利用Ｐ－σ混合坐标系全球大气环流模式研究了青藏高原隆升作用于大气临界高度问题,通过对数值试验结果的分析进一步证实了在高原隆升的过程中存在着一个临界高度,这个高度在夏季约为１５００～２０００ｍ。当高原总体平均高度超过临界高度后,高原周围地区的气流主要以绕流为主,爬坡气流的速度较小,稳定的高原季风开始形成,高原地区范围内为强大的上升运动区,高原南侧和中国东部地区出现一条明显的雨带,随着高原隆升高度的增高,雨带内的降水量逐渐增加,同时高原西侧附近地区形成一个稳定的感热通量大值带     

CHARACTERISTICS OF 10-DAY MEAN SURFACE LATENT HEAT FLUX VARIATIONS IN THE SCS MONSOON REGION AND POSSIBLE CONNECTIONS WITH THE SCS SUMMER MONSOON ONSET

The temporal and spatial variations of the ten-day mean surface latent heat flux (TMLH) havebeen analyzed in this paper based on the data of NCEP from January of 1979 to December of 1995in the South China Sea (SCS) monsoon region. It is found that there exist maximum centers ofTMLH standard deviation in the northwest Indochina and the Indian Peninsula as well as thewestern Pacific, SCS, the Indian Ocean and the Bay of Bengal, and their locations and strengthschange significantly during the period of SCS monsoon onset. A positive zonal deviation of TMLHoccurs first in the Indochina Peninsula, apparently earlier than that in the Indian Peninsula. Theappearance of maximum positive zonal deviations of TMLH approximately coincides with thesummer monsoon onset. Over the Indochina and Indian Peninsulas, the TMLH increases graduallywith a small amplitude of variation before the onset of summer monsoon, and the rate of increase issignificantly enhanced after the onset of the monsoon; whereas over the ocean, TMLH decreasesbefore the monsoon onset, varies little during the period of monsoon and increases gradually afterthe ending of monsoon. Therefore, it seems that the surface latent heat flux plays an importantrole in the maintenance of the summer monsoon, and its variation is an phenomenon accompanyingthe onset of summer monsoon.     

EFFECTS OF BOUNDARY LAYER PARAMETERIZATION ON THE MONTHLY MEAN SIMULATION

Treatments of the boundary layer in a five-layer primitive equation model with mixed P—σcoordinates are improved by incorporating similarity theory,which is widely used at present.Twokinds of parameterization schemes of the boundary layer are designed,and static test and numericalsimulation are performed.It is found that the iterative scheme can fairly improve the simulation ofthe mean climate field in July.The abnormally strong heat low over the Tibetan Plateau isweakened to some extent.     

温度,盐度和风应力对南海海流模拟的影响

用美国普林斯顿大学海洋模式（ＰＯＭ）对南中国海的年平均海流进行了数值模拟,对温盐结构和风应力在海流形成中的作用进行了较详细的讨论。结果表明,仅有温盐水平不均匀分布也可以驱动海水而生成南海海流,但此种海流的结构较乱,最大流速只有３０～４０ｃｍ·ｓ－１。若温盐无水平结构,则在风应力驱动下,南海海流的结构较为有序,且最大流速可增至６０～７０ｃｍ·ｓ－１。在温盐水平分布不均匀并有风应力的作用时,生成的南海海流与仅有风应力作用时的海流场较相似,说明在南海海流的形成中,风应力的作用更为重要。海面自由高度的分析也证明了上述结论。     

DEVELOPMENT OF A COUPLED REGIONAL AIR-SEA MODEL AND ITS NUMERICAL SIMULATION FOR SUMMER MONSOON IN 1998

A coupled regional air-sea model is developed by using the regional climate model (P-σ RCM)and the regional ocean model (POM),which is used to simulate East Asian monsoon and oceanicelements in East Asian coastal waters.The simulated surface layer oceanic elements are basicallyconsistent with the reality and can reflect the interaction between the monsoon and the surfacelayer currents.The great difference with the reality is “cold drift” of the simulated surfacetemperature.The coupled model has certain ability to simulate the atmosphere geopotential heightfields,precipitation and low-level southwest wind from May to August in 1998.It can display theprocess of summer monsoon onset during the third dekad of May and the evolution features afterthe onset.The differences between the simulation results of the coupled model and that of thesingle P-a RCM are shown mainly in the low-level atmosphere and the model internal regions.     

Numerical Experiments of the Effects of Initial Desert Moisture on the Climate Change

A numerical model with the p-sigma incorporated coordinate system and primitive equations is used to simulate the effect of initial soil moisture in desert areas on the climate change. The results show that the present deserts have a tendency to expand. When the initial soil moisture in the desert regions increases,the desert areas will shrink but can not disappear. The small deserts may not remain any longer when there are sources of water vapour around. Both the land-sea contrast and the topography are the background conditions of the present desert distribution through the mechanism of the downdrafts and the rare precipitation over the desert regions. The increase of the initial desert soil moisture will weaken the summer monsoon circulation and, consequently, the monsoonal precipitation.     

土中和地表温度影响因子的分析

本文用一个土壤和地表温度的计算模式,讨论了土壤物理参数、大气中的云量、大气透明度、土壤模式层厚度以及温度初值给定方法等因子对土壤和地表温度计算结果的影响。表明:土壤密度和比热、土壤导温率越大则地表和土壤内温度日变化越小;但是,土壤内的热量传输越大。云量影响也是显著的,尤其是对土壤内温度的影响,在云量增加时,温度和热量通量均减小。透明度的影响与云量的影响类似。土壤模式层厚度的增加,对地表温度的影响较小,对土壤温度的日振幅影响很大。在夏季,温度初值对地表温度和热通量影响较小,对土壤温度影响较大。     

大气湿位涡影响夏季江淮降水异常的机理分析

利用欧洲中心再分析资料(ERA-40)中1958-2001年气象场资料(世界时00时),分析了降水异常年850 hPa湿位涡及其分量差异的原因.结果表明,降水异常年湿位涡和湿位涡正压部分的差异主要是由水汽的垂直分布差异引起稳定度的变化所致,而相对湿位涡和湿位涡斜压部分的差异,分别主要是由垂直涡度及纬向风的垂直切变和暖湿气流的经向切变所致.另外,还利用湿位涡的正压部分和斜压部分讨论了江淮夏季850 hPa大气性质的变化,结果表明,近50年来,大气对流不稳定减弱,而斜压不稳定增强.     

区域海气耦合模式对我国极端降水模拟分析

使用区域海气耦合模式40年的降水模拟结果,采用百分位的方法定义极端降水事件,分析了耦合模式模拟的夏季中国极端降水事件的特征。结果表明,区域海气耦合模式基本能够模拟出气候平均极端降水阈值的空间分布型及极端降水事件在长江中游、西南部分地区和长江下游局部地区的显著增加、增强趋势,在中西部、华北北部和东北局部的显著减少、减弱趋势。EOF分析发现,模式模拟的极端降水事件几个特征量在我国江南地区长江以南与华南沿海及长江以北的呈反位相变化,这一变化以年代际为主要特征。区域耦合模式基本能够模拟出极端降水量、夏季总降水量、极端降水日数两两间的高时空相关关系。
