闪电与大气层结因子相关性的探讨

众所周知,闪电总是与雷暴等强烈对流性天气的发生相联系在一起的。“闪电造成的总死亡人数,比包括龙卷和台风在内的其他强烈天气现象造成的死亡都多。另一个值得关心的方面是闪电对森林的影响,森林这种自然资源正在失掉其不断增长的趋势”。闪电引起的森林火灾是造成这一现象的主要     

大气环境层结对闪电活动影响的模拟研究

利用一个二维面对称雷暴云起电、放电模式,选取了北京地区3次雷暴过程的环境层结,计算并讨论了不同层结条件下雷暴中动力、微物理过程及其对起电、放电活动的影响.结果表明,上升速度和水汽条件是影响雷暴动力、微物理过程和闪电活动的最重要因子.上升速度的大小决定了雷暴发展到成熟的时间和雷暴的强弱,较强的上升气流有利于雷暴云在较短时间内达到较大的高度.而持续的上升气流和充足的水汽有利于雷暴的成熟期延长从而增强闪电活动.较强的上升速度和充足的水汽可以产生更多的对闪电起电、放电有直接影响的冰相物并能使其持续生成,从而形成较大的电荷浓度.较强的上升速度和不利的水汽条件也可以在某时形成较大的冰相物浓度,但冰相物难以持续生成.而较弱的上升速度和充足的水汽则容易形成暖云过程,对冰相物的生成也有不利影响.上升速度和水汽相互影响,又共同受到环境层结的支配.大气低层潮湿、中层湿度适中,较大的不稳定能量和一定量的对流抑制能量将有利于强闪电活动的发生.表现在大气不稳定参数的取值上,对流性稳定度指数的值小于-10℃(负值表示不稳定),对流有效位能值在1000 J/kg以上,对流抑制能量大于40 J/kg,700 hPa相当位温在340 K以上,700-400 hPa中层平均湿度在35%-85%,有利于强闪电活动的发生.     

大气层结和海气交换作用影响的海面风剖面研究

风速剖面是各类工程结构抗风设计的关键参数。为了准确估算近海各类工程建筑结构承受的风荷载作用,通过在对数风剖面中引入大气稳定度函数和拖曳系数来刻画大气层结和海气交换作用对近海风速剖面的影响并建立相应的模型,最后利用强台风"黑格比"(0814号)的实测数据对模型进行了验证。研究结果表明:大气层结和海气交换作用对台风"黑格比"风速剖面有一定的影响,考虑大气层结和海气交换作用的风速剖面较对数剖面更能准确描述台风过程的风速剖面特征。     

STUDY OF NORTHERN WINTER ATMOSPHERIC ACTIVE CENTERS (AAC) CLIMATE BASE-STATE WITH ITS CLIMATE VARIABILITY AND EFFECTS

The study of low-frequency oscillations is an important part of climate variability research. In view of insufficient efforts spent on multidecadal and ENSO-scale changes of the climate, the present paper undertakes study of > 30 year slowly-varying means, called climate base state (CBS), of northern winter AAC's in the past 100 years and more, with the CBS variability and its temporal evolution investigated, indicating that Aleutian low and Icelandic low (North Pacific high and North American high) experience maximum (minimum) variation in the CBS. The CBS exhibits two modes for its variation. The positive (negative) phase of mode Ⅰ presents a weak (strong) NAO (North Atlantic Oscillation), a weaker (stronger) NPO (North Pacific Oscillation), a robust (feeble) Siberian high and a quite weak (vigorous) Aleutian low whilst the positive (negative) phase of mode Ⅱ reveals a feeble (strong) Aleutian low and a weak (robust) Siberian high. Also, the research shows that the recent CBS of northern circulations is in a remarkably negative phase of mode Ⅰ and a noticeably positive phase of mode Ⅱ, viz., in the background of slowly-varying circulations of an exceptionally weak Siberian high, an extremely vigorous Aleutian low and an intense NAO. The background field is likely to persist for a matter of 30 years such that northern winter temperature is expected to be in such a warm situation for a long period to follow.     

北半球冬季大气活动中心的基本态特征及影响研究

通过研究近100多年北半球全部大气活动中心30年以上的慢变平均值（气候基本态）、气候变率特征及时间演变规律，指出阿留申低压与冰岛低压的基本态改变最大。基本变态变化最小的是北太平洋高压，其次是北美高压。基本态的变化表现为两个基本模态：第一模太为弱（强）的NAO，较弱（强）的NPO，强（弱）的西伯利亚高压物较弱（强）的阿留申低压的特征；第二模态主要表现为弱（强）的阿留申低压及弱（强）的西伯利亚高压的特征。近期北半球环流基本态是处于第一模态明显的负位相，第二模态明显的正位相下，即特别弱的西伯利亚高压、特别强的阿留申低压及强NAO的慢变环充背景下。这种慢变的环流背景场还可能维持30年左右。所以北半球冬委今后还将长期处于气候暖背景下。     

大气稳定度对农田蒸散计算准确性的影响

在运用Ｐｅｎｍａｎ－Ｍｏｎｔｅｉｔｈ公式计算农田蒸散时，综合考虑了大气稳定度的影响。通过引入适应指数公式，检验稳定度修正前后对农田蒸散计算的精度影响。结果表明，修正后的公式计算公式精度明显下降，平均绝对误差增大一倍多，由此证明在计算农田蒸散时不考虑大气稳定度的订正是完全可靠的。此结论与文献［２］的研究结果一致。     

南海夏季风爆发的大气热源特征及其爆发迟早原因的探讨

利用ECMWF(1979～1993年)的再分析资料分析了南海夏季风爆发前后的大气热源演变特征,并由此确定了南海夏季风爆发的大气热源判据。将该判据应用于1979~1993年总共15年的平均场,可判定南海夏季风平均于28候(5月第4候)爆发。而且,对于逐年南海夏季风爆发,该判据也有较好的指示意义。本文还发现,南海夏季风爆发的迟早与4月份40 S纬圈平均的大气热源垂直积分有着非常密切的联系,由此得到的南海夏季风爆发时间的前期判定指标能较好地判断南海夏季风的爆发时间。南海夏季风爆发迟早的原因,及其与4月份40 S纬圈平均之间的联系,可以通过南北半球哈得莱环流的变化得到解释。

一种改进后的交叉相关法(COTREC)在降水临近预报中的应用

利用多普勒雷达资料,采用一种改进后的交叉相关法(COTREC)建立了一种降水临近预报方法。COTREC法的基本原理是对传统交叉相关法(TREC)反演的风场进行水平无辐散处理,得到COTREC风场,用新的风场外推得出的回波能够保持平滑连续的形状。但是这种方法也存在缺陷,由于采用水平无辐散限制,使得外推反演得到的风场在不同程度上受到削弱,从而外推后的回波略慢于实况观测的回波。通过引入数值预报平均风场作为TREC风场背景场,较好地解决了TREC风场受到削弱的问题,并用该方法对2007年6月23—24日强雷雨天气和2007年台风“圣帕”两次降水过程进行了预报试验,试验结果表明：采用改进后的交叉相关方法的降水临近预报与雷达实际观测比较一致,可作为台风、强对流等灾害性天气的降水临近预报方法之一。     

台风“海棠”特大暴雨数值模拟研究

在福建中北部登陆的台风,往往会严重影响浙江,尤其值得注意的是台风引起特大暴雨经常会发生在浙江东南沿海的南雁荡山区和北雁荡山区,2005年在福建省连江黄歧登陆的台风"海棠"(0505)对浙江东南沿海造成严重影响,是这类台风比较典型个例。文中利用非静力模式MM5模拟"海棠"台风在浙东南沿海造成的特大暴雨,模拟结果与实况对比分析表明,模式较好地模拟了台风降水强度和分布,特别是成功模拟出南雁荡山区特大暴雨中心(南部暴雨区)和雁荡山区特大暴雨中心(北部暴雨区);运用高时空分辨率模拟资料对特大暴雨成因进行诊断分析表明,南部暴雨区涡度低层到高层向西倾斜结构和北部暴雨区高低空强辐散辐合的耦合结构有利于形成暴雨区强烈上升运动,环境风场垂直切变产生次级环流进一步加强暴雨区上升运动;暴雨区持续不稳定层结和特殊水汽输送通道为特大暴雨提供热力条件和水汽条件。最后对浙南闽北地形对台风特大暴雨影响进行数值敏感性试验表明,温州南、北雁荡山脉地形等高线与台风水汽输送路径正交是造成特大暴雨的重要原因,地形使暴雨增幅明显,地形越高对暴雨增幅越明显,降水分布更加不均匀。比较台风造成南、北特大暴雨条件,发现两者既有环境风场垂直切变产生次级环流进一步加强暴雨区上升运动、持续不稳定层结以及地形对暴雨增幅作用等相同之处,又有动力结构、维持持续不稳定层结条件以及水汽输送等不同之处。     

STUDY ON THE GENESIS OF ASYMMETRICAL DISTRIBUTION CHARACTERISTICS OF PRECIPITATION ASSOCIATED WITH THE TYPHOON HAITANG (2005) FROM THE VIEW OF ATMOSPHERIC FACTOR

The distribution of precipitation field from the typhoon Haitang (2005) during its landing on Fujian province shows obvious asymmetric feature. Based on the NCEP/NCAR FNL (Final Analysis) data, this study reveals the contributions of atmospheric factor to the asymmetrical distribution characteristics of precipitation associated with the typhoon, through the analysis of water vapor condition, vertical ascending motion condition, the calculation of the dry Q vector and its decomposition, and adiabatic heating in the air column of 1000hPa -600hPa (lower atmosphere) and 500hPa-100hPa (upper atmosphere). The results are as follows: (1) In the lower atmosphere, the humidity on both sides of typhoon path can be equivalent, while it is more wet on the right side than left in the upper atmosphere, which obviously presents asymmetric distribution characteristics. (2) Both range and intensity of the vertical motion on the right side are wider and stronger than counterparts on the left side no matter in the lower or upper atmosphere. (3) In the upper atmosphere, forcing role of atmosphere in vertical upward motion on the right side of typhoon path is the same as that on the left, while it is significantly different in the lower atmosphere, which is significantly broader in scope and stronger in the intensity, along with obvious asymmetric distribution characteristics. In addition, the further analysis of the Q vector decomposition indicates that the forcing effect of mesoscale weather systems on vertical upward motion is stronger than that of large scale weather systems in the lower atmosphere. (4) The adiabatic heating always exists on both lower and upper atmosphere, and the range and intensity of the adiabatic heating forcing showed asymmetric distribution on both lower and upper atmosphere. (5) In a summary, the upper atmosphere humidity conditions, the forcing role of lower atmosphere in vertical upward motion, especially, to mesoscale weather system, and adiabatic heating in the lower atmosphere, all show similar asymmetric distribution characteristics to that of precipitation field from the typhoon Haitang (2005), that is to say, the atmospheric factors as mentioned above are all contributed to genesis of the asymmetric distribution characteristics of precipitation.
