1961—2019年黑龙江省冬季气温季节内变化及环流异常特征

利用1961—2019年黑龙江省冬季气温、NCEP再分析资料和环流指数资料,采用多变量经验正交函数分解、合成分析、相关分析等方法,分析黑龙江省冬季气温季节内变化及其环流异常特征,并进一步对比了主要环流因子在冬季气温季节内演变不同模态中的相对贡献。结果表明：季节内变化是黑龙江省冬季气温变化的基本特征。黑龙江省冬季气温存在季节内一致变化、12月和翌年1—2月反位相变化、12月至翌年1月和2月反位相变化三个主要模态。当冬季气温处于第一模态分布一致偏暖(冷)时,环流呈现北极涛动(AO)正(负)位相的分布特征,东亚冬季风(EAWM)偏弱(强)。当冬季气温发生季节内冷暖转换时,季内极涡、高空急流、西伯利亚高压(SH)和EAWM强度、中高纬环流经向度等均有明显调整。第二模态1月和第三模态2月环流场分别呈现类似极地欧亚型(PEA)和东大西洋型(EA)遥相关的分布特征。AO、SH、EAWM、PEA和EA是冬季气温季节内演变的重要影响因子。

华南前汛期典型旱涝年降水的低频特征及其与冷空气的关系

利用国家气象信息中心提供的1961—2010年华南85站逐日降水及NCEP/NCAR逐日再分析资料,选取2004、2010年为华南前汛期降水典型旱、涝年,分别统计旱涝年降水及冷空气低频特征,讨论低频冷空气与低频降水的关系,并揭示低频冷空气信号源地。结果表明:(1)涝年降水存在10～20 d和30～60 d显著低频周期,旱年还存在20～30 d低频周期。无论旱涝年,低频位涡与同频域降水呈显著的正相关关系,其中10～20 d低频位涡与同频域降水的关系最为密切;(2)涝年华南前汛期10～20 d低频冷空气直接源地位于华北至渤海一带,南传特征明显,高层冷空气源地位于平流层低层西西伯利亚地区,高层高位涡空气沿315 K等熵面向低层输送,干侵入为西北路径。旱年对流层低层冷空气传播特征不明显,高层冷空气源地位于平流层低层东北地区,由于高低层位涡传输通道断裂,导致冷空气活动减弱,降水减少,干侵入为东北路径。

Numerical quantification of sources and phase partitioning of chemical species in cloud: application to wintertime anthropogenic air masses at the Puy de Dôme station

The Model of Multiphase Cloud Chemistry M2C2 has recently been extended to account for nucleation scavenging of aerosol particles in the cloud water chemical composition. This extended version has been applied to multiphase measurements available at the Puy de Dôme station for typical wintertime anthropogenic air masses. The simulated ion concentrations in cloud water are in reasonable agreement with the experimental data. The analysis of the sources of the chemical species in cloud water shows an important contribution from nucleation scavenging of particles which prevails for nitrate, sulphate and ammonium. Moreover, the simulation shows that iron, which comes only from the dissolution of aerosol particles in cloud water, has a significant contribution in the hydroxyl radical production. Finally, the simulated phase partitioning of chemical species in cloud are compared with measurements. Numerical results show an underestimation of interstitial particulate phase fraction with respect to the measurements, which could be due to an overestimation of activated mass by the model. However, the simulated number scavenging efficiency of particles agrees well with the measured value of 40% of total number of aerosol particles activated in cloud droplets. Concerning the origin of chemical species in cloud water, the model reproduces quite well the contribution of gas and aerosol scavenging estimated from measurements. In addition, the simulation provides the contribution of in-cloud chemical reactivity to cloud water concentrations.     

Decadal variation of summer rainfall in the yangtzehuaihe river valley and its relationship to atmospheric circulation anomalies over east asia and western north pacific

Decadal variations of summer rainfall during 1951 through 1990 are analyzed by using summer rainfall data of 160 stations in China. Four major patterns of decadal variations are identified. The decadal variations of summer rainfall showed northward shift in the eastern China from South China through the Yangtze-Huaihe River to North China. Summer rainfall in the Yangtze-Huaihe River valley underwent two obvious decadal transitions during the 40 years: one from rainy period to drought period in the end of the 1950’s, the other from drought period to rainy period in the late 1970’s. Correspondingly, the atmospheric circulation over East Asia through the western North Pacific showed two similar obvious transitions. The East Asian/ Pacific (EAP) pattern switched from high index to low index in the end of the 1950’s and from low index to high index in the late 1970’s, respectively. Hence, summer rainfall in the Yangtze-Huaihe River valley is closely associated with the EAP pattern not only in the interannual variation but also in the decadal variation.

Reconstructions of spring/summer precipitation for the Eastern Mediterranean from tree-ring widths and its connection to large-scale atmospheric circulation

This study represents the first large-scale systematic dendroclimatic sampling focused on developing chronologies from different species in the eastern Mediterranean region. Six reconstructions were developed from chronologies ranging in length from 115 years to 600 years. The first reconstruction (1885–2000) was derived from principal components (PCs) of 36 combined chronologies. The remaining five, 1800–2000, 1700–2000, 1600–2000, 1500–2000 and 1400–2000 were developed from PCs of 32, 18, 14, 9, and 7 chronologies, respectively. Calibration and verification statistics for the period 1931–2000 show good levels of skill for all reconstructions. The longest period of consecutive dry years, defined as those with less than 90% of the mean of the observed May–August precipitation, was 5 years (1591–1595) and occurred only once during the last 600 years. The longest reconstructed wet period was 5 years (1601–1605 and 1751–1755). No long term trends were found in May–August precipitation during the last few centuries. Regression maps are used to identify the influence of large-scale atmospheric circulation on regional precipitation. In general, tree-ring indices are influenced by May–August precipitation, which is driven by anomalous below (above) normal pressure at all atmospheric levels and by convection (subsidence) and small pressure gradients at sea level. These atmospheric conditions also control the anomaly surface air temperature distribution which indicates below (above) normal values in the southern regions and warmer (cooler) conditions north of around 40°N. A compositing technique is used to extract information on large-scale climate signals from extreme wet and dry summers for the second half of the twentieth century and an independent reconstruction over the last 237 years. Similar main modes of atmospheric patterns and surface air temperature distribution related to extreme dry and wet summers were identified both for the most recent 50 years and the last 237 years. Except for the last few decades, running correlation analyses between the major European-scale circulation patterns and eastern Mediteranean spring/summer precipitation over the last 237 years are non-stationary and insignificant, suggesting that local and/or sub-regional geographic factors and processes are important influences on tree-ring variability over the last few centuries.     

东亚夏季风的年际到年代际变化及其与全球大气环流和海表温度的联系

The East Asian summer monsoon (EASM) underwent an interdecadal variation with interannual variations during the period from 1958 to 1997, its index tended to decline from a higher stage in the mid-1960＇s until it reached a lower stage after 1980＇s. Correlation analysis reveals that EASM is closely related with the global atmospheric circulation and sea surface temperature (SST). The differences between the weak and strong stage of EASM shows that, the summer monsoon circulation over East Asia and North Africa is sharply weakened, in the meantime, the westerlies in high latitudes and the trade--wind over the tropical ocean are also changed significantly. Over the most regions south of the northern subtropics, both air temperature in the lower troposphere and SST tended to rise compared with the strong stage of EASM. It is also revealed that the ocean-atmosphere interaction over the western Pacific and Indian Ocean plays a key role in interannual to interdecadal variation of EASM, most probably, the subtropical Indian Ocean is more important. On the other hand, the ENSO event is less related to EASM at least during the concerned period.

A study of weather types at Athens and Thessaloniki and their relationship to circulation types for the cold-wet period, part II: discriminant analysis

A discriminant analysis is applied in order to determine the relationships between circulation types in the middle troposphere and prevailing weather types over two major Greek cities, Athens and Thessaloniki. In order to describe the synoptic conditions, an automatic classification scheme for the Greek region is used. For each circulation type identified (14 in total), several meteorological parameters at the 500 hPa level are calculated such as geopotential heights and their anomalies, temperature and relative vorticity. Weather group-types that reflect the conditions at the surface, were previously defined using a two-step cluster analysis. These types result from a combination of five meteorological parameters—maximum temperature, precipitation amount, relative humidity, wind velocity and sunshine duration. The study period is 43 years long (1958–2000) and is restricted to the cold and wet period of the year, from December until March. For Athens, six weather types are developed, whereas for Thessaloniki five are produced. By means of a stepwise discriminant analysis (DA) model, the most important variables from the 500 hPa level are found and are used to generate the necessary functions that can discriminate weather types over the two stations. The aim of the present study is first to discriminate weather types effectively and to identify the most important discriminating variables, and second, to connect these weather types to elements of the prevailing synoptic pattern, through mathematical functions provided by DA. The results of the evaluation of the aforementioned procedure are considered to be very satisfactory.     

长江中下游冬季两类冷空气活动事件的环流差异及其与急流的关系

利用1981—2020年台站观测的降水和最低气温资料,从长江中下游地区冬季冷空气活动事件中分出"降温有降水"和"降温无降水"两类事件(简称为"冷湿"和"冷干"事件),结合再分析资料,分析两类事件的冷暖空气活动特征和大气环流差异,进而探讨其与急流的联系。结果发现,长江中下游冷空气活动事件发生频次逐年减少,其中冷干事件发生频次逐年减少,冷湿事件发生频次显著增加,且冷湿事件的降温幅度大于冷干事件。冷湿事件发生时,高层副热带急流北移、极锋急流偏弱,中层存在倾斜槽脊、副热带高压偏西,低层西伯利亚高压增强,有来自西南的暖湿气流在长江中下游地区辐合上升;冷干事件发生时,高层副热带急流偏弱、极锋急流偏强,中层槽脊倾斜程度偏弱、副热带高压偏东,低层西伯利亚高压南移,有来自北方的偏干气流在长江中下游地区辐散下沉。此外,与冷湿事件相比,冷干事件过程中急流强度指数和经向风位置指数的波动更加频繁,冷空气活动持续时间更短。     

Multicentury reconstruction of the Canadian Drought Code from eastern Canada and its relationship with paleoclimatic indices of atmospheric circulation

Inter-annual and -decadal scale variability in drought over the Abitibi Plains ecoregion (eastern Canada) was investigated using a 380-year dendroclimatic reconstruction of the Canadian Drought Code (CDC; July monthly average) i.e., a daily numerical rating of the average moisture content of deep organic layers. Spectral analyses conducted on the reconstructed CDC indicated a shift in spectral power after 1850 leading toward a reduction in interdecadal variability and an increase in interannual variability. Investigation on the causes for this shift suggested a decrease in North Pacific forcing after the mid-nineteenth century. Cross-continuous wavelet transformation analyses indicated coherency in the 8–16 and 17–32-year per cycle oscillation bands between the CDC reconstruction and the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) prior to 1850. Following 1850, the coherency shifted toward the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO). Principal component analysis conducted over varying time windows reaffirmed that the Pacific forcing was restricted to the period about 1750–1850. Prior to and after this period, the CDC was correlated with the NAO. The shift around 1850 could reflect a northward displacement of the polar jet stream induced by a warming of the sea surface temperature along the North Pacific coast. A northward displacement of the jet stream, which inhibits the outflow of cold and dry Arctic air, could have allowed the incursion of air masses from the Atlantic subtropical regions.     

A study of weather types at Athens and Thessaloniki and their relationship to circulation types for the cold-wet period, part I: two-step cluster analysis

This paper presents a method for grouping weather types that occur over an area, which combines meteorological parameters, reflecting air mass characteristics at the surface, with synoptic conditions prevailing over an area. Five quantitative meteorological parameters are used in the procedure: temperature, precipitation, relative humidity, wind velocity and sunshine duration. In addition, two qualitative variables related to the prevailing circulation type and whether it is cyclonic or anticyclonic are also included. The study period is 43 years (1958–2000) and is restricted to the cold and wet sub-period of the year, December–March. Weather types are defined using a relatively new method of cluster analysis, two-step cluster analysis, which allows the simultaneous use of both quantitative and qualitative variables. The aim of the present study is to distinguish primary weather patterns so that the investigation into the relationship between weather patterns and circulation types will be more effective. For Athens, six weather types are created, whereas for Thessaloniki five are produced. For both stations, only two weather types are related to anticyclonic situations. The majority of the identified weather types correspond to a distinctive and well-defined synoptic situation. Each weather type differs from the others, not only in terms of the circulation conditions referring to it, but also with reference to meteorological variables such as temperature and precipitation. The results of the evaluation of the aforementioned procedure are considered to be highly satisfactory.
