南极对流层—平流层下部气候变化特征及其原因

利用南极１６站３０余年地面至３０ｈＰａ１０层月平均气温距平序列资料，采用最大熵功率谱方法，研究了南极对流层至平流层下部气候变化的长期趋势和周期性特征，并讨论了平流层（对流层）气候变化与南极臭氧总量（南半球５００ｈＰａ环流）变化之间的联系。指出：南极气温具有明显的长期趋势和周期性变化；平流层下部显著变冷，对流层增暖，变化最大层高度在１００，７００ｈＰａ，最大降冷速率远大于增暖速率，气层稳定度趋于减弱     

南极气候变化的季节特征

利用1962～1993年南极16站地面至30hPa10个标准层上月平均温度、南极臭氧总量以及2800MHz太阳通量资料,采用最大熵功率谱方法,研究了各季中月南极诸高度气候的线性趋势变化、熵谱特征及其可能原因。结果显示:南极平流层气温(臭氧总量)在各月均呈变冷(减少)趋势,10月100hPa气温(臭氧总量)10年的变率最大达-1.8℃(-14.8%).南极对流层气温(2800MHz太阳通量)在各月均呈显著增暖(增强)趋势,1月500hPa气温(太阳通量)10年的变率高达0.4℃(22.1个单位).各月太阳通量均呈显著的3年及9～10年甚低频-年代际周期变化。而对流层850～500hPa气温变化熵谱仅在7月具有相应的特征,南极对流层顶气温在各季中月均无显著的趋势变化及周期性变化。提出南极春季臭氧的显著减少及夏季太阳通量的增强是平流层显著变冷及对流层变暖的重要原因;南极夏季对流层显著增暖导致南极大陆边缘部分冰雪消融,可能是近年来全球海平面升高的重要原因之一。     

南极对流层-平流层下部气候变化特征及其原因

利用南极16站30余年地面至30hPa10层月平均气温距平序列资料,采用最大熵功率谱方法,研究了南极对流层至平流层下部气候变化的长期趋势和周期性特征,并讨论了平流层(对流层)气候变化与南极臭氧总量(南半球500hPa环流)变化之间的联系。指出:南极气温具有明显的长期趋势和周期性变化;平流层下部显着变冷、对流层增暖,变化最大层高度在100、700hPa,最大降冷速率远大于增暖速率,气层稳定度趋于减弱;30、50hPa气温具有准两年周期,100hPa上下具有显着的年周期,对流层是以3.5年甚低频周期为主;对流层顶气温无显着趋势变化和周期性变化;南极最大臭氧层高度显着变冷与近15年来臭氧层损耗有关。南半球对流层中部极涡及绕极气流减弱是南极对流层气候变暖的直接原因。     

南极海冰与南半球大气环流关系的初步探讨

本文利用１９７３—１９８２年南极海冰北界资料，分析了南极海冰平均北界（海冰范围）的变化及其与南半球大气环流变化间的联系。１９７６年前，南极海冰平均北界偏北（海冰范围扩大），而１９７７年－１９８０年，南极海冰平均北界偏南（海冰范围缩小）。与此相对应，这两个时期的南半球大气环流具有明显不同的特点。在南极海冰平均北界偏北、海冰范围扩大时期，南极高压和绕极低压带偏弱，南半球中高纬度地区槽脊位置偏西，南印度洋和南大晒洋副热带高压偏弱，南太平洋副热带西凤减弱、中纬度西风加强，而南太平洋副热带高压和印度尼西亚低压带发展，南方涛动处于正位相阶段；在南极海冰平均北界偏南、海冰范围缩小时期，则相反。分析表明，南方涛动与南极海冰之间存在相互联系，并以南极海冰超前南方涛动约２个月时的关系最好，其次是南极海冰落后南方涛动４个月。     

南极海冰的年际变化对中国东部夏季降水的影响

根据Hadley中心提供的1969—1998年的南极海冰再分析资料和其它多种观测资料，分析了南极海冰的年际和季节变化，指出南极海冰具有显著的年际变化，但与ENSO的关系则较为复杂。南极海冰维持了南半球高纬地区大气环流的季节持续性，因而对短期气候预测有较大帮助。相关分析和时间序列分析均证实中国东部夏季降水与南极海冰的年际变化有关，当北半球春夏季南极海冰增多时，华北降水增多而华南和东北降水减少。研究还表明，此种雨型分布与南极海冰变化引起的东亚夏季风环流变化有关。     

南极气候与大气环境研究

南极气候与大气环境研究本研究是国家科技攻关项目（８５－９０５－２－５），周秀骥院士为项目主持人。南极地区，包括南极大陆、亚南极岛屿和环绕南极大陆的南大洋，是全球大气研究计划（ＧＡＲＰ）、世界气候研究计划（ＷＣＲＰ）及国际岩石圈－生物圈计划（ＩＧＢＰ）...     

南极臭氧的短期气候变化特征

利用1957～1992年南极地区大气臭氧总量地面观测站资料，对南极地区臭氧的时空变化特征进行了研究。结果表明，虽然近35年来南极地区的大气臭氧有较明显的减小趋势，但在不同地区、时段和季节，其变化趋势也不同。近年来南极地区大气臭氧的显著亏损，主要是由南极臭氧洞的形成和发展所造成的。南极地区的大气臭氧存在明显的年振荡、准20个月和准30个月的振荡周期。臭氧变化与天文日照、平流层温度场、平流层冰晶云及人类活动排放到大气中的氟氯烃和溴化烃等污染物质有关。     

中国南极考察的业务天气预报

中国南极考察活动的业务天气服务始于１９８４年，这种天气服务包括为南极长城站、中山站以及南大洋考察提供天气预报及服务。中国气象人员在南极现场利用南极气象中心发出的传真天气图（实况和预报），极轨气象卫星云图，并考虑当地单站气象要素演变及统计预报结果进行天气预报，为中国南极考察活动作出了贡献。     

近20年中国南极科学考察的气象业务进展

近20年来，中国南极科学考察的气象业务取得了长足进展。1985年在南极半岛建立了中国长城气象站；1989年在南极大陆建成了中国中山气象台；2001年与澳大利亚南极局合作在距中山站160km的南极冰盖上安置了LGB-69自动气象站(AWS)。在长城和中山两站开展了常规地面气象观测、站区天气预报服务、气象卫星高分辨率图像传输资料(HRPT)接收等业务；在中山站进行Brewer大气臭氧和紫外辐射(UV-B)等要素的观测；在赴南极考察的航渡期间进行气象观测和预报服务。南极常规气象业务已为研究南极在全球气候变化中的作用积累了丰富资料，为航渡和站区考察项目的实施提供的气象服务保障，为我国南极科学考察和研究事业作出了重要贡献。进一步提高南极气象业务水平，拓展气象业务和大气科学考察研究领域，是今后极地大气科学考察和研究的重要任务。     

南极涛动异常与2006年我国东部夏季降水形势预测

南极涛动是南半球中高纬主要的气候变率模态，反映了南半球中高纬大气环流反位相的变化及质量交换的实质。南极涛动强，表示南半球绕极低压加深和中高纬西风加强弱，反之亦然。作者近年的研究表明了南极涛动是一个重要的气候因子，能够影响东亚的冬春气候和我国北方的沙尘频次以及华北、长江中下游的夏季降水。根据作者已有的研究结果，可以依据3—4月南极涛动指数的变化，尝试预测2006年我国东部夏季降水形势，进而考察南极涛动异常信号对我国东部夏季降水形势的预测价值。     

COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF VARIOUS DATA OF AIR–SEA TEMPERATURE DIFFERENCE AND ITS VARIATION ACROSS SOUTH CHINA SEA IN THE PAST 35 YEARS

Using the International Comprehensive Ocean-Atmosphere Data Set(ICOADS) and ERA-Interim data, spatial distributions of air-sea temperature difference(ASTD) in the South China Sea(SCS) for the past 35 years are compared,and variations of spatial and temporal distributions of ASTD in this region are addressed using empirical orthogonal function decomposition and wavelet analysis methods. The results indicate that both ICOADS and ERA-Interim data can reflect actual distribution characteristics of ASTD in the SCS, but values of ASTD from the ERA-Interim data are smaller than those of the ICOADS data in the same region. In addition, the ASTD characteristics from the ERA-Interim data are not obvious inshore. A seesaw-type, north-south distribution of ASTD is dominant in the SCS; i.e., a positive peak in the south is associated with a negative peak in the north in November, and a negative peak in the south is accompanied by a positive peak in the north during April and May. Interannual ASTD variations in summer or autumn are decreasing. There is a seesaw-type distribution of ASTD between Beibu Bay and most of the SCS in summer, and the center of large values is in the Nansha Islands area in autumn. The ASTD in the SCS has a strong quasi-3a oscillation period in all seasons, and a quasi-11 a period in winter and spring. The ASTD is positively correlated with the Nio3.4 index in summer and autumn but negatively correlated in spring and winter.     

Could the Recent Taal Volcano Eruption Trigger an El Ni?o and Lead to Eurasian Warming?

正The Taal Volcano in Luzon is one of the most active and dangerous volcanoes of the Philippines. A recent eruption occurred on 12 January 2020(Fig. 1a), and this volcano is still active with the occurrence of volcanic earthquakes. The eruption has become a deep concern worldwide, not only for its damage on local society, but also for potential hazardous consequences on the Earth's climate and environment.     

VARIABILITY OF INTER-ANNUAL RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN INDIAN OCEAN DIPOLE AND HUAXI REGION’S AUTUMN PRECIPITATION

The moving-window correlation analysis was applied to investigate the relationship between autumn Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) events and the synchronous autumn precipitation in Huaxi region, based on the daily precipitation, sea surface temperature (SST) and atmospheric circulation data from 1960 to 2012. The correlation curves of IOD and the early modulation of Huaxi region’s autumn precipitation indicated a mutational site appeared in the 1970s. During 1960 to 1979, when the IOD was in positive phase in autumn, the circulations changed from a “W” shape to an ”M” shape at 500 hPa in Asia middle-high latitude region. Cold flux got into the Sichuan province with Northwest flow, the positive anomaly of the water vapor flux transported from Western Pacific to Huaxi region strengthened, caused precipitation increase in east Huaxi region. During 1980 to 1999, when the IOD in autumn was positive phase, the atmospheric circulation presented a “W” shape at 500 hPa, the positive anomaly of the water vapor flux transported from Bay of Bengal to Huaxi region strengthened, caused precipitation ascend in west Huaxi region. In summary, the Indian Ocean changed from cold phase to warm phase since the 1970s, caused the instability of the inter-annual relationship between the IOD and the autumn rainfall in Huaxi region.     

IMPACT OF ATMOSPHERIC LOW-FREQUENCY OSCILLATION ON THE IMMIGRATION OF NILAPARVATA LUGENS(STL) IN HUNAN AND JIANGXI PROVINCES

Various features of the atmospheric environment affect the number of migratory insects, besides their initial population. However, little is known about the impact of atmospheric low-frequency oscillation(10 to 90 days) on insect migration. A case study was conducted to ascertain the influence of low-frequency atmospheric oscillation on the immigration of brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens(Stl), in Hunan and Jiangxi provinces. The results showed the following:(1) The number of immigrating N. lugens from April to June of 2007 through 2016 mainly exhibited a periodic oscillation of 10 to 20 days.(2) The 10-20 d low-frequency number of immigrating N. lugens was significantly correlated with a low-frequency wind field and a geopotential height field at 850 h Pa.(3) During the peak phase of immigration, southwest or south winds served as a driving force and carried N. lugens populations northward, and when in the back of the trough and the front of the ridge, the downward airflow created a favorable condition for N. lugens to land in the study area. In conclusion, the northward migration of N. lugens was influenced by a low-frequency atmospheric circulation based on the analysis of dynamics. This study was the first research connecting atmospheric low-frequency oscillation to insect migration.     

A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF ATMOSPHERIC AND OCEANIC CONDITIONS BEFORE THE OCCURRENCE OF TWO TYPES OF EL NIO EVENTS

The atmospheric and oceanic conditions before the onset of EP El Ni?o and CP El Ni?o in nearly 30 years are compared and analyzed by using 850 hPa wind, 20℃ isotherm depth, sea surface temperature and the Wheeler and Hendon index. The results are as follows: In the western equatorial Pacific, the occurrence of the anomalously strong westerly winds of the EP El Ni?o is earlier than that of the CP El Ni?o. Its intensity is far stronger than that of the CP El Ni?o. Two months before the El Ni?o, the anomaly westerly winds of the EP El Ni?o have extended to the eastern Pacific region, while the westerly wind anomaly of the CP El Ni?o can only extend to the west of the dateline three months before the El Ni?o and later stay there. Unlike the EP El Ni?o, the CP El Ni?o is always associated with easterly wind anomaly in the eastern equatorial Pacific before its onset. The thermocline depth anomaly of the EP El Ni?o can significantly move eastward and deepen. In addition, we also find that the evolution of thermocline is ahead of the development of the sea surface temperature for the EP El Ni?o. The strong MJO activity of the EP El Ni?o in the western and central Pacific is earlier than that of the CP El Ni?o. Measured by the standard deviation of the zonal wind square, the intensity of MJO activity of the EP El Ni?o is significantly greater than that of the CP El Ni?o before the onset of El Ni?o.

Retrieval of outgoing longwave radiation from COMS narrowband infrared imagery

Hourly outgoing longwave radiation(OLR) from the geostationary satellite Communication Oceanography Meteorological Satellite(COMS) has been retrieved since June 2010. The COMS OLR retrieval algorithms are based on regression analyses of radiative transfer simulations for spectral functions of COMS infrared channels. This study documents the accuracies of OLRs for future climate applications by making an intercomparison of four OLRs from one single-channel algorithm(OLR12.0using the 12.0 μm channel) and three multiple-channel algorithms(OLR10.8+12.0using the 10.8 and 12.0 μm channels; OLR6.7+10.8using the 6.7 and 10.8 μm channels; and OLR All using the 6.7, 10.8, and 12.0 μm channels). The COMS OLRs from these algorithms were validated with direct measurements of OLR from a broadband radiometer of the Clouds and Earth's Radiant Energy System(CERES) over the full COMS field of view [roughly(50°S–50°N, 70°–170°E)] during April 2011.Validation results show that the root-mean-square errors of COMS OLRs are 5–7 W m-2, which indicates good agreement with CERES OLR over the vast domain. OLR6.7+10.8and OLR All have much smaller errors(～ 6 W m-2) than OLR12.0and OLR10.8+12.0(～ 8 W m-2). Moreover, the small errors of OLR6.7+10.8and OLR All are systematic and can be readily reduced through additional mean bias correction and/or radiance calibration. These results indicate a noteworthy role of the6.7 μm water vapor absorption channel in improving the accuracy of the OLRs. The dependence of the accuracy of COMS OLRs on various surface, atmospheric, and observational conditions is also discussed.
