Impacts of a Large-scale Adaptive Blending Scheme for CMA-MESO on Regional Forecasts-A Case Study of Typhoon Haima

Large-scale atmospheric information plays an important role in the regional model for the forecasts of weather such as tropical cyclone (TC). However, it is difficult to be fully represented in regional models due to domain size and a lack of observation data, particularly at sea used in regional data assimilation. Blending analysis has been developed and implemented in regional models to reintroduce large-scale information from global model to regional analysis. Research of the impact of this large-scale blending scheme for the Global / Regional Assimilation and PrEdiction System (CMA-MESO) regional model on TC forecasting is limited and this study attempts to further progress by examining the adaptivity of the blending scheme using the two-dimensional Discrete Cosine Transform (2D-DCT) filter on the model forecast of Typhoon Haima over Shenzhen, China in 2016 and considering various cut-off wavelengths. Results showed that the error of the 24-hour typhoon track forecast can be reduced to less than 25 km by applying the scale-dependent blending scheme, indicating that the blending analysis is effectively able to minimise the large-scale bias for the initial fields. The improvement of the wind forecast is more evident for u-wind component according to the reduced root mean square errors (RMSEs) by comparing the experiments with and without blending analysis. Furthermore, the higher equitable threat score (ETS) provided implications that the precipitation prediction skills were increased in the 24h forecast by improving the representation of the large-scale feature in the CMA-MESO analysis. Furthermore, significant differences of the track error forecast were found by applying the blending analysis with different cut-off wavelengths from 400 km to 1200 km and the track error can be reduced less than by 10 km with 400 km cut-off wavelength in the first 6h forecast. It highlighted that the blending scheme with dynamic cut-off wavelengths adapted to the development of different TC systems is necessary in order to optimally introduce and ingest the large-scale information from global model to the regional model for improving the TC forecast. In this paper, the methods and data applied in this study will be firstly introduced, before discussion of the results regarding the performance of the blending analysis and its impacts on the wind and precipitation forecast correspondingly, followed by the discussion of the effects of different blending scheme on TC forecasts and the conclusion section.     

纤维加筋高钙地聚物固化高黏尾砂的强度特性及机制分析

高黏尾砂固化处理是其资源化利用的重要手段之一。以高黏铁尾砂为对象,开展了高钙地聚物固化尾砂的强度特性试验,分析了玄武岩纤维掺量和干湿循环对固化体强度的影响。围绕固化体的微观胶结行为、无侧限抗压强度、干湿侵蚀响应参数（强度、质量损失、电化学指标）展开讨论,试验发现：（1）纤维加筋增大了强度,0.5%为最优掺量（强度提升29.1%）,相当于降低约2%的固化剂用量;（2）纤维-水化产物-尾砂以胶结和摩擦咬合作用相结合,适量纤维导致颗粒间产生微细孔隙,微孔隙的存在增加了持水能力;（3）干湿循环破坏胶结作用,6级循环后达到稳定,纤维对提升固化体抗干湿性不显著。以上成果为弄清固化尾砂强度演化机制及耐久性提供了理论支撑和方法借鉴。     

铬矿石中绿泥石的鉴定特征

铬矿床的产出专属于幔源超Mg-Fe岩浆Si-O系统。岩浆贫Al,Al的含量仅为Si-O系统的0.1%左右,不可能出现铝硅酸盐类矿物。而在经过热液改造的铬矿体中,绿泥石类矿物常见于矿石中,并与造矿矿物铬尖晶石紧密共生。这类绿泥石矿物,肉眼和单偏光镜下与蛇纹石无异,难以鉴别。笔者对内蒙     

玄武湖“五大门”趣话

南京的古城门之多,恐怕与南京古城墙之长一样,要数“世界之最”了。明代有“里十三、外十八”计31座城门,近代以来又陆续增辟几座,总计达到43座。而这其中,就包括玄武湖公园的大部分出入口。 作为南京著名游览胜地的玄武湖,面积有473公顷,水面有368公顷,周长约10公里,每天都有成千上万的中外游客通过它的五座大门涌入园内。而这五座大门,细细考究起来,又都具有一定的历史文化价值,成为玄武湖历史名胜的组成部分。     

《数理统计天气预报文集》出版

当出现悬球状(过去称乳房状)高积云(包括蔽光高积云、复高积云和双层高积云,以下简称悬球状Ac)时,常据此预报未来24小时或12小时内有降水。但实践证明,悬球状Ac的出现,一般表现为天气的“十字路口”。它对未来天气的指示性,不但与当时所处的冷暖区、天气系统部位有关,而且还与特殊云系的活动有关。现就地处云贵高原东南坡的某地情况归纳如下。 1.在暖区(暖气团)内,如果悬球状Ac是从Ci

塔里木盆地塔河油田主体区海西早期岩溶台面划分及洞穴层对比*

在现代岩溶地质考察中,岩溶区因多期次幕式构造抬升运动而形成多级岩溶台面,每级岩溶台面的排泄基准面(潜水面)控制一期洞穴发育。塔河油田海西早期形成了复杂的碳酸盐岩岩溶洞穴系统,纵向上呈现多层性特征,是油气勘探的重点。因此,为了深入认识和阐述洞穴层发育机制,以现代岩溶理论为指导,基于三维地震资料,采用水系汇流点法、侵蚀阶地法、上超终止法并结合地貌特征,对塔河油田主体区海西早期岩溶台面进行划分,并在岩溶台面约束下进行洞穴层对比。研究结果表明:(1)塔河油田主体区发育4级岩溶台面。岩溶台面1形成时代最早,台面3面积最大。(2)主要发育3套洞穴层,具有明显的层状分布特征,台面3的洞穴层规模最大。3套洞穴层在垂向上并不构成大范围重叠,仅台面3控制的洞穴溯源侵蚀穿越台面向上游发育,说明洞穴层形成时的构造稳定期长。其他台面洞穴层并未穿跨台面发育,说明洞穴层形成时的构造稳定期短,潜水面控制下洞穴溯源侵蚀范围比较有限。
