Trends in graded precipitation in China from 1961 to 2000

Daily precipitation rates observed at 576 stations in China from 1961 to 2000 were classified into six grades of intensity, including trace （no amount）, slight （≤ 1 mm d^-1）, small, large, heavy, and very heavy. The last four grades together constitute the so called effective precipitation （〉 1 mm d^-1）. The spatial distribution and temporal trend of the graded precipitation days are examined. A decreasing trend in trace precipitation days is observed for the whole of China, except at several sites in the south of the middle section of the Yangtze River, while a decreasing trend in slight precipitation days only appears in eastern China. The decreasing trend and interannual variability of trace precipitation days is consistent with the warming trend and corresponding temperature variability in China for the same period, indicating a possible role played by increased surface air temperature in cloud formation processes. For the effective precipitation days, a decreasing trend is observed along the Yellow River valley and for the middle reaches of the Yangtze River and Southwest China, while an increasing trend is found for Xinjiang, the eastern Tibetan Plateau, Northeast China and Southeast China. The decreasing trend of effective precipitation days for the middle- lower Yellow River valley and the increasing trend for the lower Yangtze River valley are most likely linked to anomalous monsoon circulation in East China. The most important contributor to the trend in effective precipitation depends upon the region concerned.     

重庆极端高温的变化特征及其对区域性增暖的响应

利用重庆1961-2006年31个站逐日最高温度资料,统计出年极端高温发生频次、年极端高温强度、年极端最高温度,分析了它们近46年来的变化情况.结果表明:近46年来重庆年极端高温发生频次呈西减东增的趋势,但增加/减少趋势并不显著.年极端高温的强度和年极端最高气温均在不断增强.年极端高温发生频次的增加对于重庆区域增暖的响应最显著,而年极端最高温度的升高比年极端高温频次的增加对重庆区域性增暖的响应偏弱,但又比年极端高温强度的增强对重庆区域性增暖的响应程度要偏强.     

一次对流降水过程增雨催化时机的模拟分析和雷达识别

为加深对对流云增雨催化机制的理解,避免催化指标的随意性,通过三维积云数值模拟和雷达加密探测资料分析相结合的方法,对发生在湖北省西北部多山地区的一次对流降水过程进行了增雨催化时机的分析和识别.首先运用三维积云模式,通过催化模拟敏感试验,得出对流云增雨催化存在时间窗,最佳的催化时机应该为对流云发展的早期,催化后关键是增加雨和冰晶冻结后碰并霰增长这一冰相微物理过程的产量.根据模式分析结果,结合雷达观测资料分析,发现对流回波在生成及发展上表现出一些规律性,可以作为通过雷达观测识别增雨催化的时机和潜力区域的指标.     

2007年7月皖苏北部龙卷风初步分析

2007年7月3日0840-1000(UTC)先后在安徽天长-江苏高邮和江苏兴化等局部地区发生了多个龙卷风,成为本年度的极端天气事件之一.利用高频次的FY-2C、2D等静止气象卫星资料、南京站多普勒天气雷达资料和常规天气资料对这次龙卷风天气系统的活动与演变进行了分析,得到以下认识:叠加在梅雨锋切变线上的高空短波槽线,及槽后强干冷空气平流与低空暖湿平流在垂直方向迭合,并与200hPa青藏高压东西向脊线北侧的辐散场重合,为强对流天气系统的发展提供了动力和热力条件;0400(UTC)之后,在鄂豫皖苏交界区形成了两条中尺度对流云带.一条是与梅雨锋切变线相对应的弱对流云带,另一条是位于其南面的在上述干冷空气前沿迅速发展的飑线云带.切变线弱对流云带整体缓慢向南移动,构成云带的对流云块沿着云带缓慢向东移动.强对流飑线云带则由西北西向东南东方向移动,构成飑线云带的强对流云团则沿着云带由西南西向东北东方向移动.龙卷风就发生在上述两条中尺度对流云带的云团相交合并处.     

2007年淮河流域大洪水的雨情、水情分析

利用淮河流域实测降水资料和水文资料,分析了2007年夏季淮河流域大洪水期间的降水时空分布、气候统计特征以及水情特征,并与历史同期进行了比较.结果表明,2007年淮河流域汛期强降水过程集中在6月29日至7月26日,强降水主要分为四个时段,淮河干流四次洪峰对应着4个强降水阶段,累积降水量越大,相应的流量越大,洪峰水位也越高.2007年汛期淮河流域平均降水量少于1954年,和2003年基本持平,但淮河中上游降水集中,降水强度大,持续时间长,从而导致了淮河流域出现1954年以来最大的洪水.

“经济大国能源与气候论坛”进展及前景展望

"经济大国能源与气候论坛"在推动全球主要国家就应对气候变化主要议题达成一致方面取得了进展,已初步显示出其作为联合国气候谈判晴雨表的特征。该论坛的实质是主要发达国家为转移减排责任和压力,降低减排成本,绑架主要发展中国家在全球应对气候变化领域实施的集体强权政治。论坛的核心目标在于推动全球量化减排,目的是借全球量化减排,营造低碳和气候友好技术的广大市场,使得具有技术优势的这些经济大国拥有新的主导全球经济的力量。我国应坚持"共同但有区别的责任"原则,联合与会发展中国家强调气候变化的历史责任,反对为全球温室气体排放设限等不公平提议,团结广大发展中国家,同时抓住论坛力推低碳经济和低碳技术发展的机遇,使我国站在全球新一轮技术革命的前沿。     

黄山大气气溶胶微观特性的观测研究

根据2008年4—7月黄山大气气溶胶观测资料,研究了气溶胶粒子的数浓度、谱分布特征及其与气象因子的关系,探讨了雾天和非雾天气溶胶颗粒物时间和尺度分布特点。分析发现,黄山光明顶春、夏季大气气溶胶数浓度的平均值分别为3.14×103个/cm3和1.80×103个/cm3,其中超细粒子(粒径小于0.1μm的粒子)在春夏季分别约占总粒子数浓度的79%和68%;高数浓度值集中在粒径0.04～0.12μm;积聚模态气溶胶粒子(0.1～1.0μm)在体积浓度分布和表面积分布中占很大比例。结合气象资料比较了雾天与非雾天气溶胶分布的差异,发现细粒子浓度非雾天大于雾天,而气溶胶数浓度与温度呈正相关,与相对湿度成反相关。结果还发现,黄山在春季以西北风和偏南风为主,西北风时气溶胶数浓度较高,在夏季主要以偏南风,特别是西南风为主,但是气溶胶数浓度的高值多发生在偏东风的条件下。     

An overview of dry-wet climate variability among monsoon-westerly regions and the monsoon northernmost marginal active zone in China

Climate in mainland China can be divided into the monsoon region in the southeast and the westerly region in the northwest as well as the intercross zone, i.e., the monsoon northernmost marginal active zone that is oriented from Southwest China to the upper Yellow River, North China, and Northeast China. In the three regions, dry-wet climate changes are directly linked to the interaction of the southerly monsoon flow on the east side of the Tibetan Plateau and the westerly flow on the north side of the Plateau from the inter-annual to inter-decadal timescales. Some basic features of climate variability in the three regions for the last half century and the historical hundreds of years are reviewed in this paper. In the last half century, an increasing trend of summer precipitation associated with the enhancing westerly flow is found in the westerly region from Xinjiang to northern parts of North China and Northeast China. On the other hand, an increasing trend of summer precipitation along the Yangtze River and a decreasing trend of summer precipitation along the monsoon northernmost marginal active zone are associated with the weakening monsoon flow in East Asia. Historical documents are widely distributed in the monsoon region for hundreds of years and natural climate proxies are constructed in the non-monsoon region, while two types of climate proxies can be commonly found over the monsoon northernmost marginal active zone. In the monsoon region, dry-wet variation centers are altered among North China, the lower Yangtze River, and South China from one century to another. Dry or wet anomalies are firstly observed along the monsoon northernmost marginal active zone and shifted southward or southeastward to the Yangtze River valley and South China in about a 70-year timescale. Severe drought events are experienced along the monsoon northernmost marginal active zone during the last 5 centuries. Inter-decadal dry-wet variations are depicted by natural proxies for the last 4--5 centuries in several areas over the non-monsoon region. Some questions, such as the impact of global warming on dry-wet regime changes in China, complex interactions between the monsoon and westerly flows in Northeast China, and the integrated multi-proxy analysis throughout all of China, are proposed.
