甘肃夏季特强沙尘暴分析

夏季沙尘暴的气候特征表明,夏季是甘肃省沙尘暴的次多发季节,主要集中在民勤、鼎新、金塔。通过对一次罕见的甘肃省夏季强沙尘暴天气分析发现:高空小槽、切变线、热低压是引发夏季沙尘暴的主要天气系统,而春季沙尘暴一般是大尺度天气系统造成的;夏季沙尘暴发生前期高空急流反映并不明显,急流风速的突然加大和沙尘暴几乎同时发生,这是夏季沙尘暴预报的难点之一;沙尘暴发生前8~12 h的螺旋度场对沙尘暴预报有较好的指示意义,正值越大,沙尘暴越强,但当沙尘暴与强降水同时发生时,沙尘暴区螺旋度值明显小于强降水中心螺旋度值。     

2002年我国沙尘暴天气特征分析

利用逐日8个时次地面天气报告资料，分析了2002年全国沙尘暴的时空分布特征。结果表明：2002年出现的12次沙尘暴过程以3月18～22日的强沙尘暴过程影响范围最广、强度最强；我国北方地区浑善达克沙地及其周边地区的沙尘暴日数最多。另外，2002年我国沙尘暴高频期集中、早春多于晚春。主要原因是前期北方持续气温偏高、降水偏少，3—4月上中旬影响我国的冷空气十分频繁且强度较强，4月下旬—5月上旬我国北方地区出现了几次较大范围降水，5月中下旬影响我国的冷空气势力较弱且位置偏东。

典型沙尘天气过程近地层气象要素演变特征

选取2009年3月至2010年3月期间观测到的3次典型沙尘天气过程,利用大同国家基准气候站的20m气象梯度塔的风速、气温、相对湿度的观测资料,PM10质量浓度资料以及能见度的部分观测资料,分析了近地层气象要素和PM10质量浓度的演变特征。结果表明:风速在沙尘暴、扬沙的发生、发展过程中均较大,浮尘较小。3种沙尘天气条件下,1m、2m、4m、10m高度与20m高度的风速比大致在0.48~0.84和0.41~0.79范围内,局地扬沙过程中近地层风速梯度较大。在浮尘天气过程中,观测到的近地层气温变率与同一季节的昼夜气温变率有较明显差别,反映了沙尘气溶胶的辐射强迫对局地温度变化速率的影响。在沙尘天气过程中,还观测到相对湿度与气温之间的反常变化,反映了来自于沙漠地区干燥气团的可能影响。总体上,沙尘暴、扬沙、浮尘天气条件下的PM10平均质量浓度水平存在依次递减的趋势,但是沙尘天气的PM10平均质量浓度水平并不唯一与风速大小有关,尤其是在沙尘天气持续发展的后期,随着近地面沙尘颗粒尺度谱性质的改变,PM10质量浓度会出现下降,导致能见度、风速变化与PM10质量浓度变化趋势不相一致。

为检验区域气候模式与沙尘模式耦合模式RegCM Dust的性能,以2006年东亚地区一次沙尘暴过程为例,将模拟结果与观测资料进行对比,以检验模式对沙尘天气过程的模拟能力。结果表明：模式对沙尘暴过程的地面风场特征模拟效果较好,总体上重现了大风区的分布;地面沙尘浓度和沙尘光学厚度模拟结果与观测分布总体吻合。模式虽然是区域气候模式与沙尘模式耦合模式,但由于其内核是建立在中尺度数值模式MM4基础上,因此对天气过程尤其是沙尘天气过程具备较好的把握能力,对于沙尘天气过程预测具有良好的应用前景。     

Uncertainty in Dust Budget over East Asia Simulated by WRF/Chem with Six Different Dust Emission Schemes

In this study, the dependence of dust budgets on dust emission schemes is investigated through the simulation of dust storm events, which occurred during 14–25 March 2002, over East Asia, by the Weather Research and Forecasting with Chemistry（WRF/Chem） model coupled with six dust emission schemes. Generally, this model can reasonably reproduce the spatial distribution of surface dust concentration; however, the simulated total dust budget differs significantly with different emission schemes. Moreover, uncertainties in the simulated dust budget vary among regions. It is suggested that the dust emission scheme affects the regional dust budget directly through its impact on the total emitted dust amount; however, the inflow and outflow of dust aerosols simulated by different schemes within a region also depend on the geographical location of the dust emission region. Furthermore, the size distribution of dust particles for a specific dust emission scheme has proven to be important for dust budget calculation due to the dependence of dust deposition amount on dust size distribution.     

An Observational and Numerical Study on the Topographic Influence on Dust Transport in East Asia

Based on observations and numerical simulations, the topographic impacts on dust transport in East Asia were studied. Two regions frequently attacked by dust storms have been confirmed： one is the western part of Inner Mongolia and the southern Mongolia （namely the Mongolia Plateau）, and the other is the Tarim Basin. The most frequent dust storm occurrence area within the first region appears in its hinterland while that of the second one lies in its southern boundary. Moreover, the region from the northeastern edge of the Tibetan Plateau （TP） to the Loess Plateau is attacked by dust storms second frequently. The dust storms frequently occurring over the Mongolia Plateau axe related not only to the abundant sand and dust sources, but also to the special topographic conditions of East Asia. The most significant factor that influences the dust storms forming in the hinterland of the Mongolia Plateau is the canyon low level jet （CLLJ）, which dominates around the southern areas of the Altay-Sayan Mountains with an east-west direction in the beginning of its formation, and is accompanied by significantly enhanced surface wind afterwards. Due to the obstructive effects of the CLLJ, a lot of dust particles carried by the southward down-slope cold air mass would pile up over the southern slope of the Sayan Mountains. Meanwhile, uneven surface conditions are favorable for the dust particles to go up into the upper atmosphere. With the dust particles piling up continuously, a dust layer is formed in the troposphere and can be recognized as a ＇!dust accumulating container＂, which provides abundant dust particles to be transported later to the downstream areas. Additionally, the topographic features of East Asia also exert a great influence on dust transport. Generally, the easterly CLLJ enhances the easterly dust transport. The down-slope air current over the southern Sayan Mountains and the air flow surrounding the TP near its northeastern edge enhance the southward dust transport. Lastly, weather system influences are also examined. The weathers associated with cold fronts frequently appear over the areas of Mongolia and North China in springtime. The cold front system, in general, carries the sand and dust southwards. Among all topographic influencing elements, the rounding effect of the TP is the strongest. Under the combined influences of the cold front and the rounding effect of topography, most sand and dust particles are transported and then deposited over the Loess Plateau.     

Impact of Long-range Desert Dust Transport on Hydrometeor Formation over Coastal East Asia

Model simulations and hydrological reanalysis data for 2007 are applied to investigate the impact of long-range desert dust transport on hydrometeor formation over coastal East Asia.Results are analyzed from Hong Kong and Shanghai,which are two representative coastal cities of East Asia.Long-range desert dust transport impacts mainly spring and summer clouds and precipitation over coastal East Asia.In spring,clouds and precipitation come mainly from large-scale condensation and are impacted mainly by dust from the Gobi,Sahara,and Thar deserts.These desert dusts can participate in the precipitation within and below the clouds.At lower latitudes,the dust particles act mainly as water nuclei.At higher latitudes,they act as both water nuclei and ice nuclei.The effect of Gobi,Sahara,and Thar dust on large-scale clouds and precipitation becomes stronger at higher latitudes.In summer,clouds and precipitation over coastal East Asia come mainly from convection and are impacted mainly by dust from the Taklamakan,Arabian,and Karakum-Kavir deserts.Most Taklamakan dust particles can participate in precipitation within convective clouds as ice nuclei,while Arabian and Karakum-Kavir dust particles participate only as water nuclei in precipitation below the clouds.The effect of Taklamakan dust on convective clouds and precipitation becomes stronger at lower latitudes.Of all the desert dusts,that from the Gobi and Taklamakan deserts has the relatively largest impact.Gobi dust impacts climate change in coastal East Asia by affecting spring water clouds at higher latitudes.     

中国北方春季沙尘暴的变化与ENSO的关系

根据中国北方春季沙尘暴频率变化的特点,对南方涛动指数（SOI）、NINO3区海表温度与我国北方春季沙尘暴的发生频率做相关分析,并对ENSO事件与我国北方春季沙尘暴发生频率的关系进行探讨。结果表明：我国北方地区1957－2002年春季沙尘暴发生频率在总体上呈下降趋势,同时存在明显的年际和年代际差异。春季SOI与滞后1～2 a的春季沙尘暴发生频率、夏季SOI与滞后2 a的春季沙尘暴发生频率有较好的相关,但春季沙尘暴与NINO3区海表温度的相关不如与SOI的好。ENSO暖事件可能会使未来1～2 a内春季沙尘暴发生次数减少,而ENSO冷事件则有可能使其增多。

Numerical Investigation of the Influence of Mineral Dust on the Tropospheric Chemistry of East Asia

An investigation of the influence of mineral dust ontrace gas cycles in the troposphere is carried out inthis study. A 3D regional scale atmospheric chemistrymodel (STEM-III) which includes aerosol processes isused for the numerical simulations for May 1987.Heterogeneous interactions between gaseous species(SO₂, N₂O₅, HNO₃, HO₂andH₂O₂) and the dust particles are considered.Emissions of dust behind convective cold fronts aremodeled. The transport and distribution of mineraldust predicted from the model is compared withsatellite measurements (aerosol index from TOMS). Themodel is shown to capture the synoptic variability inthe observed aerosol index. Calculations show twomajor dust events in May 1987, during which thedust levels close to the source reach more than500 g/m³. The transport of dust is mostlyrestricted towards the north, with the net continentaloutflow of 6 Tg for the entire month. Results showthat the presence of mineral aerosol can greatlyimpact sulfate and nitrate distributions. Averagedover the month of May, the presence of dust isestimated to increase particulate sulfate and nitratelevels in east Asia by 40%. Furthermore, the sulfateand nitrate on the dust particles are predicted to beassociated with the coarse mode (3–5 m particlediameter), consistent with observations over Japan.The influence of mineral dust on the photochemicaloxidant cycle is also investigated. For the entiremonth, a5–10% decrease in boundary layer ozone ispredicted by the model closer to regions of higherdust levels. The ratio of nitric acid to NO_x overmarine regions is reduced by a factor between 1 and 2in the boundary layer to more than 2 in the freetroposphere as a result of aerosol processes.
