为了考察探空资料随高度的漂移对高分辨率数值预报模式的影响, 充分发掘探空资料的应用价值, 根据探空资料的探测原理, 设计定位方案, 计算出了各气压层上探空气球所处的实际位置。对位置订正前后的资料分别用3D-VAR系统进行同化, 将同化结果作为WRF模式的初始场进行数值预报并对预报效果进行对比分析。结果表明:探空气球在施放过程中的漂移距离远远超过目前数值模式可取的水平分辨率; 所设计的探空气球定位方案对水平分辨率为10 km ×10 km的数值预报模式基本是可用的; 总的来讲, 位置订正对分析增量场的改变与原分析增量场相比小一个量级。模式预报结果显示, 探空资料的定位使降水预报效果得到了改善。研究表明, 将各气压层上探空资料订正到实际位置对高分辨率数值预报模式的预报效果有一定程度的正面影响, 但仍需要更多的个例来验证。     

探空气球漂移位置订正对一次大风降温过程的模拟研究

应用改进后的MM5模式,采用包含有实际探空气球在各个气压层上精确的经纬度信息的新型探空资料,研究探空资料对高分辨率中尺度数值模式的影响.通过对一次中尺度大风降温天气过程的模拟分析,可以看出:位置订正对初始气象要素场的改变虽然总体上有低层较小,高层较大的特征,但是在500hPa以下大气运动剧烈的情况下,低层气象要素场的改变量也会较大,甚至会超过高层相应的气象要素场的变化,速度场的改变尤为明显;位置订正使得模拟结果在数值和影响范围上都有效地减小了误差,更加接近实况;位置订正后,模式较准确的模拟出了该次向南推进的大风降温过程的移动变化,尤其是模拟的大风前沿位置与实况的对应关系较好,温度场的变化与速度场的变化有较好的一致性.

以一次发生在长江流域的暴雨过程为例,设计了几种数值试验方案,并进行模拟。结果表明,MM5伴随模式同化系统能有效改善初始场与模式的协调能力,提高模式对于降水场和其它要素场的预报;使用云导风资料修正初始场后直接模拟的效果比未使用时直接模拟的效果要好,对部分区域的强降水预报精度有一定程度的改善;使用伴随模式同化系统后,加入云导风资料的同化试验对其它要素的改善与直接同化常规资料的效果相比,改善优势不明显,但从各要素的误差来看,对于风场的改善最好。     

卫星云图资料反演的质量控制及变分同化数值试验

该文针对数值化的GMS红外卫星云图资料的特点,利用改进的统计反演方法分别求出温度和湿度估计场,设计了几种订正方案对反演出的温度和湿度进行质量控制;控制后的反演场再与常规观测资料进行变分同化,最后用MM4模式进行了模拟对比试验.结果显示,在合理的泛函设计的基础上,质量控制的好坏直接影响预报结果.用分析场格点值进行订正效果优于用测站值直接订正,加上对云图反演的值进行系统误差订正后,有效提高了降水预报准确率.值得指出的是,加进云图资料后,明显改善了模式降水预报的强度和区域,与仅用常规探空资料相比更接近于实况.     

中国L波段探空湿度观测资料的质量评估及偏差订正

L波段探空观测资料无论在天气预报还是数值预报中均为最基本和最重要的一类数据,而其湿度观测资料的质量对同化分析及降水预报有直接影响。通过用L波段探空湿度观测资料与不同类型的其他观测反演的湿度资料互校及与NCEP、GRAPES、EC等不同模式分析场为背景的湿度场比较,评估中国L波段探空湿度观测资料的质量状况,对探空湿度资料的质量有了新的认识,为更好地使用该资料提供依据。研究发现中国L波段探空湿度观测资料存在偏干的现象,特别是当背景场湿度大于60%时,观测湿度偏低更加明显。通过分析其偏差特征,找出了适合中国L波段探空湿度观测资料偏差特点的分段函数订正方法。个例试验表明,对探空湿度观测资料的偏差订正后,观测偏差明显减小,订正效果非常显著;模式降水强度预报能力有一定的提高。从连续试验检验的降水预报评分(TS)和预报偏差(Bias)看,中雨和暴雨的预报在探空湿度观测偏差订正后都表现出正效果。     

不同资料同化对登陆台风菲特(2013)短时预报的影响研究

为定量评估地面、探空、飞机报、卫星辐射亮温、雷达反射率及径向风等不同观测资料同化对台风预报性能的影响,本文以2013年严重影响我国的登陆台风菲特为例,利用WRF模式与GSI-3DVAR同化系统开展观测系统试验(OSE)研究,探讨了不同类型资料同化对"菲特"(2013)路径、强度、形势场和降水短时预报的相对贡献及可能影响机理。结果表明:(1)不同类型资料同化对模拟结果贡献程度有明显差别,其中探空、雷达反射率和飞机报对模拟结果有较大影响,分别"拒绝"这三种资料后模式模拟的高空各要素均方根误差分别上升约54.8%~62.0%、9.2%~16.5%和6.1%~6.4%。(2)对于不同的台风预报效果评估参数,各类资料的贡献率大小排序不同。对高空场和台风路径模拟影响较大的是探空和飞机报,对台风强度模拟影响较大的依次是雷达径向风、反射率、探空和飞机报,而对降水模拟影响较大的依次是雷达反射率、探空和飞机报。(3)各类资料对降水模拟的贡献率随时间变化不同。雷达反射率资料对降水的贡献随着模式积分时间明显下降,而飞机报、探空资料等对降水的贡献在模式积分3 h之后开始出现。(4)资料同化对降水模拟的改进与其对台风路径、水物质及强度模拟改进有关,因此影响高空场、台风路径和强度较大的雷达反射率、探空和飞机报资料,也是对降水模拟贡献较大的资料。

利用地面自动站降水资料、ERA5再分析资料、广西壮族自治区气象台降水落区和ECMWF模式预报数据对1415号台风"海鸥"在广西暴雨预报偏差进行了分析,并开展了地形降水订正研究.结果 表明,对"海鸥"强降水落区预报准确,但大暴雨以上量级降水明显偏弱,大暴雨和特大暴雨漏报严重.降水经地形订正后,大暴雨以上降水TS(BS)评分由0.19(0.27)大幅度提升到0.35(0.53)且暴雨及以下量级降水评分无明显改变,但地形降水订正方法对特大暴雨仍无明显订正技巧;偏南风、东北风及偏东风在广西复杂地形下均会产生地形降水,实际业务预报中应加以考虑,有助于提升对强降水开始时间的预报效果.     

定量降水预报技术进展

四川盆地地形地貌复杂,强降水预报难度大,对模式降水预报产品进行订正,是提升强降水预报质量的重要手段。本文选取2018—2019年发生在四川盆地的35次强降水过程,对ECMWF、CMA_MESO和SWC_WARMS三种模式的24 h强降水预报采用常规评分和空间平移两个方法进行检验,并利用最优评分、多模式集成和位移订正三种方法进行订正试验。结果表明: 最优评分订正方法可以有效改善各模式降水预报的强度,而多模式集成订正法可以改进降水落区和极值预报,在此基础上计算位移偏差,根据最优的位移偏差值对降水预报进行位移订正,可以进一步改进强降水落区预报效果。然后利用2020—2021年强降水过程进行订正效果验证,结果显示：经订正后的降水极值预报更接近实况,各量级降水预报评分明显优于单一模式,暴雨和大暴雨预报的TS评分提高率较最优单模式分别可达24.3%和42.8%,订正后空报率基本维持,漏报率显著下降,订正效果良好。

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.
