9711号台风Winnie和0010号台风Bills均在中国大陆发生变性,但前者变性后再度加强,而后者变性后减弱消亡。从湿位涡理论出发,对比分析两者的变性过程,结果表明:作为变性台风,Winnie和Bilis均在北上过程中与中纬度西风槽发生作用,但前者与高空槽发生耦合,后者仅接近高空槽底部,没有发生耦合;Winnie变性加强过程表现为一个温带气旋在低层锋区上的强烈发展过程,主要与高层正位涡扰动下传、低层锋区及热带气旋低压环流之间的相互作用有关。Pm湿斜压项增长引起的倾斜涡度发展是登陆热带气旋变性加强的主要因子。在Bills变性过程中,高层无明显的正位涡扰动下传,热带气旋低压环流内无锋区面出现,大气斜压性弱且变化不明显。 相似文献

The paper reveals that the variations in parameters like u*, the scaling velocity and θ*. The scaling tempera-ture during the various phases of monsoon might be linked with subsynoptic features. The rise in u* is mainly connected with the presence of lower tropospheric cyclonic vorticity over a subsynoptic scale of the site. However the variations in θ* is mainly linked with the various phases of monsoon and θ* shows a sharp rise in presence of low level convective cloud.Besides the correlation studies of u and u*, θv and θv* , θv-θv0 and θv* are undertaken. The correlation be?tween θv and θv* is poor. In other two cases correlations are good. Besides u/u* , has shown good coefficient of variation values within the ζ range. 相似文献

By using an f-plane barotropic quasi geostrophic model in the rectangular coordinates with a grid spacing of 5 km,ten experiments whose integration time is 36 hours are performed in order to study the interaction between a typhoon vortex and a mesoscale vortex whose initial center position is located at 2 rm northwest to the typhoon center,where rm is the radius of maximum wind of the typhoon vortex. Results show that the interaction can create a pair of smaller scale vortices or lumps,which extend from the outside region of the typhoon to near its center,resulting in the inward propagation of mesoscale vorticity.In this process,the vorticity concentration of the mesoscale vortex may appear.The coexistence of the propagation and the concentration makes the increase of vorticity in the inside region i.e.a more intensive typhoon.Meanwhile,the intensity of the lump with positive vorticity oscillates with time,with the oscillation period being several hours,the distance from the typhoon center to the lump center also has a similar oscillation period,which reduces the oscillation of typhoon intensity.In the case of stronger circular basic flow,the interaction can make the intensification of typhoon more obviously. In addition,in some parametric conditions,the interaction may break down the continuous vorticity zone,exhibiting a cluster of smaller vorticity lumps. 相似文献

The stability of large-scale horizontal motion in the atmosphere is discussed in this paper by using qualitative analysis theory of non-linear ordinary differential equations. Both the non-linear distribution of basic Zephyr flow and the variation of geostrophic vorticity along the latitude (f=f0 + βδy ) are all included in this paper's mathematical model so as to analogue the background field of large-scale horizontal air motion more really in the rotating reference frame of the earth. Some significant results are drawn out from this paper and the conclusions of Li(1986)'s and Wan et al.(1990)'s are extended widely. 相似文献

We show the relationship between the intermittency of turbulence and the type of stratification for different atmospheric
situations during the SABLES98 field campaign. With this objective, we first demonstrate the scaling behaviour of the velocity
structure functions corresponding to these situations; next, we analyze the curvature of the scaling exponents of the velocity
structure functions versus the order of these functions ( ζ
p
vs. p), where ζ
p
are the exponents of the power relation for the velocity structure function with respect to the scale. It can be proved that
this curve must be concave, under the assumption that the incompressible approximation does not break down at high Reynolds
numbers. The physical significance of this kind of curvature is that the energy dissipation rate increases as the scale of
the turbulent eddies diminishes (intermittency in the usual sense). However, the constraints imposed by stability, preventing
full development of the turbulence, allow the function ζ
p
versus p to show any type of curvature. In this case, waves of high frequency trapped by the stability, or bursts of turbulence caused
by the breaking up of internal waves, may produce a redistribution of energy throughout the scaling range. Due to this redistribution,
the variation with the scale of the energy dissipation rate may be smaller (decreasing the intermittency) and, even in more
stable situations, this rate may diminish (instead of increasing) as the scale diminishes (convex form of the curve ζ
p
vs. p). 相似文献

从完整的原始方程出发,在导出精确形式的湿位涡方程的基础上,证得绝热无摩擦的饱和湿空气具有湿位涡守恒的特性。并由此去研究湿斜压过程中涡旋垂直涡度的发展。结果表明,在湿等熵坐标中,涡旋的发展与对流稳定度的减少,等熵面上的辐合和潜热的释放有关。由于等熵位涡分析的应用受等熵面倾斜的限制,又进而发展了Z坐标及P坐标中的倾斜涡度发展理论。指出无论是湿对称不稳定或对流不稳定大气,还是湿对称稳定或对流稳定大气,除对流稳定度的影响外,风的垂直切变的增加或水平湿斜压的增加均能因湿等熵面的倾斜而引起垂直涡度的增长。湿等熵面的倾斜越大,这种由干湿斜压性加强所引起的涡旋发展更激烈。在梅雨锋附近及其南侧暖湿区的北端,湿等熵面十分陡立,是涡旋发展及暴雨发生的重要地区。对1991年6月12—15日江淮流域暴雨过程的湿位涡分析表明,湿位涡分析,尤其是等压面上湿位涡量MPV1和MPV2的分析不仅在中高纬有效,在低纬度及低对流层也十分有效,是暴雨诊断和预报的有力工具。 相似文献

Scaling velocities relevant for turbulent flows in the planetary boundary layer are discussed. It is suggested that the scaling parameters should be determined by integrated bulk properties of the respective turbulent production terms. According to this concept, a new velocity scale, replacing the friction velocity u*, is proposed depending on both u* and the geostrophic wind u
g
. The convective velocity scale w* can be determined by the integral of the buoyancy production term and is therefore an appropriate velocity scale. Examination of Minnesota and Kansas data shows that these data do not give the possibility of verifying whether the new scaling velocity is more appropriate than u*. This is because the range of variability of atmospheric stability during the field measurements is too small. However, theoretical considerations based on integrated properties of the turbulence, through the depth of the planetary boundary layer, are given in support of the new scaling velocity. 相似文献

Analyses are made of all terms in the vorticity equation for the atmosphere at low latitudes by using the scale analysis theory, with the result that for synotic-scale motion the baroclinic term, i. e. the twisting term and the vorticity vertical-transport term, approximates in order to the relative-vorticity advection, divergence and β term. With intensified atmospheric disturbance ratios of the β term to others become smaller while the others stay in more or less fixed proportions between them. This statement has been confirmed by the results of 22 typhoons calculated covering a large area in low latitudes. Besides, the baroclinic term for the genesis and development of 6 typhoons over 1979-1980 is calculated and the results ob-tained show that it has significant effect. Finally, the baroclinicity is shown not to be ignored in dealing with synoptics and dynamics of synoptic-scale systems such as typhoons and easterly waves. 相似文献

本文利用一套具有中尺度分辨率的观测资料,对发生在1983年6月下旬的一次长江流域梅雨暴雨过程进行了诊断研究,并比较了该过程的对流降水活跃期和非活跃期的中尺度环境场特征。结果表明,两个时期的动量场存在明显差异,而水热场差异不大,Q 1和Q 2以及涡度收支也存在明显差异。在降水活跃期(暴雨集中期),积云对流对能量和涡度的垂直输送有着重要作用;在水热收支中,起主要作用的是垂直输送项,潜热加热基本上为抬升冷却所平衡,水汽的垂直输送是积云对流的主要水汽源;在涡度收支中,低层散度项和扭转项制造正涡度,并通过积云对流向上输送,无论在低层或高层积累的正涡度都被平流非线性过程所耗损。 相似文献

Motivated primarily by its application to understanding tropical-cyclone intensification and maintenance, we re-examine the concept of buoyancy in rapidly rotating vortices, distinguishing between the buoyancy of the symmetric balanced vortex or system buoyancy, and the local buoyancy associated with cloud dynamics. The conventional definition of buoyancy is contrasted with a generalized form applicable to a vortex, which has a radial as well as a vertical component. If, for the special case of axisymmetric motions, the balanced density and pressure distribution of a rapidly rotating vortex are used as the reference state, the buoyancy field then characterizes the unbalanced density perturbations, i.e. the local buoyancy. We show how to determine such a reference state without approximation.The generation of the toroidal circulation of a vortex, which is necessary for vortex amplification, is characterized in the vorticity equation by the baroclinicity vector. This vector depends, inter-alia, on the horizontal (or radial) gradient of buoyancy evaluated along isobaric surfaces. We show that for a tropical-cyclone-scale vortex, the buoyancy so calculated is significantly different from that calculated at constant height or on surfaces of constant σ ( σ = ( p − p*)/( ps − p*), where p is the actual pressure, p* some reference pressure and ps is the surface pressure). Since many tropical-cyclone models are formulated using σ-coordinates, we examine the calculation of buoyancy on σ-surfaces and derive an expression for the baroclinicity vector in σ-coordinates. The baroclinic forcing term in the azimuthal vorticity equation for an axisymmetric vortex is shown to be approximately equal to the azimuthal component of the curl of the generalized buoyancy. A scale analysis indicates that the vertical gradient of the radial component of generalized buoyancy makes a comparatively small contribution to the generation of toroidal vorticity in a tropical cyclone, but may be important in tornadoes and possibly also in dust devils.We derive also a form of the Sawyer–Eliassen equation from which the toroidal (or secondary) circulation of a balanced vortex may be determined. The equation is shown to be the time derivative of the toroidal vorticity equation in which the time rate-of-change of the material derivative of potential toroidal vorticity is set to zero. In analogy with the general case, the diabatic forcing term in the Sawyer–Eliassen equation is shown to be approximately equal to the time rate-of-change of the azimuthal component of the curl of generalized buoyancy.Finally, we discuss the generation of buoyancy in tropical cyclones and contrast the definitions of buoyancy that have been used in recent studies of tropical cyclones. We emphasize the non-uniqueness of the buoyancy force, which depends on the choice of a reference density and pressure, and note that different, but equivalent interpretations of the flow dynamics may be expected to arise if different reference quantities are chosen. 相似文献

An intensive measurement campaign within and above a maize row canopy was carried out to investigate flow characteristics within this vegetation. Attention was given to finding adequate scaling parameters of the within-canopy windspeed and air temperature profiles under above-canopy stable stratification.During clear and calm nights the within-canopy condition differs considerably from the abovecanopy state. In contrast to the daytime, the windspeed and temperature profiles do not scale with the above-canopy friction velocity, u
*
, and the scaling temperature, T
*
, respectively. A free convection flow regime is generated, forced by the soil heat flux at the canopy floor and by cooling at the top of the canopy. However, the windspeed and temperature profiles appear to scale well with the free convective velocity scale, w
*
, and the free convective temperature scale, T
f
, respectively. The free convective state within the canopy agrees well with the free convection criterion Gr>16Re 2( u
*
), where Gr is the Grashof number and Re( u
*
) the Reynolds number, a criterion often used in technical flow problems. Also it is shown that under within-canopy free convection, there is a unique relation between the Grashof number, Gr, and the Reynolds number if the latter is based on the free convective velocity scale.Under within-canopy free convective conditions, it appears that within the canopy the fluxes of heat and water vapour can be estimated well with the relatively simple variance technique. Under these conditions, the Grashof, or Rayleigh number, represents a measure for the kinetic energy of the turbulence within the canopy. 相似文献

Summary A global ECMWF data set comprising ten years of daily routine T63 analyses is employed for the derivation of regional and
temporal tropopause fold statistics. Due to the small scale of folds relative to grid resolution it was found to be convenient
to identify them by joint occurrences of potential vorticity maxima and upper tropospheric Q-vector divergences as indicators.
The applicability of the proposed method is shown by diagnostic studies of episodic mesoscale model simulations, with 40–50 km
resolution as a basis for reference and comparison with the global data set. Tropopause folds are a frequent and rather uniformly
occurring phenomenon of the extratropics pole-ward of 30° latitude. On the global scale, and based on daily counting, there
are about 11 000 tropopause fold days per year. In order to account for the different folding depth and intensity a four step
classification is proposed to define a tropopause fold activity by weighted sums, in terms of four intensity classes. Tropopause
fold activity in the Northern Hemisphere is nearly twice as high and less homogeneously distributed as in the Southern Hemisphere, where
only 62% of the tropopause fold frequency is estimated. The frequency of tropopause folds is significantly smaller in the
summer than in the other seasons.

Profiles of wind and turbulence over an urban area evolve with fetch in response to surface characteristics. Sodar measurements,
taken on 22 April 2002 during the Salford Experiment in the UK (Salfex), are here related to upstream terrain. A logarithmic
layer up to z = 65m was observed in all half-hour averaged profiles. Above this height the profile showed a different vertical gradient,
suggesting a change in surface cover upstream. The drag coefficient varied by a factor of two over only a 20° direction change.
Turbulence intensity ( σ
x
) for each wind component ( x) decreased with height, but the ratio suggested an underestimate of σ
u
compared to previous results. Mean urban and suburban cover fraction within the source area for each height decreased sharply
between z = 20 and 50m, increasing slightly above. The near-convergence of cover fractions thus occured for source areas of minimum
length ≈ 2,200 m. In comparison, the mean length scale of heterogeneity L
P was calculated from surface cover data to be 1,284 m, and the corresponding mean blending height h
b was 175 m. Finally, the mean streamline angle, α, was negative and the magnitude decreased with height. An exponential fit
to α for z ≤ 65m gave an e-folding height scale of 159 m. A simple relationship between this height scale and L
P was assumed, giving L
P ≈ 1,080 m, which is in reasonable agreement with the estimate from surface cover type. The results suggest that more emphasis
is required on modelling and measuring surface-layer flow over heterogeneous urban canopies. 相似文献

We describe laboratory experiments on the instability and later evolution of a front in a two-layer rotating fluid. In particular, we focus on the influence of a nearby boundary on instability growth and eddy formation. The front is produced through the adjustment of a buoyant fluid initially confined within a bottomless cylinder. Typically a front in quasi-cyclostrophic balance establishes after two rotation periods, after which it becomes unstable. Measurements of the velocity and vorticity fields at the surface are made which provide detailed information on the evolution of the front as the instability grows to finite amplitude. We focus on the time evolution of the vorticity and distinguish between the cyclonic and anticyclonic components. The spatial averages of the cyclonic and anticyclonic vorticity first grow exponentially. This growth saturates when eddies form and are advected across the front. The growth rate depends upon two nondimensional parameters: the width W of the upwelling region in units of the internal radius of deformation and the depth ratio δ between the two layers. Measurements of the growth rates for the average of the cyclonic and anticyclonic vorticity are compared to the values inferred from a simplified model for baroclinic instability. A good agreement is obtained when the front develops far from the boundary (i.e. W1). However, the agreement is only qualitative when the front is near the boundary (i.e. W1). We find that, as W decreases, the growth of cyclonic eddies consisting of dense—“coastal”—water is enhanced compared to that of anticyclonic vorticity consisting of buoyant—“off-shore”—water. This crucial effect of the boundary with respect to the instability of the front has significant impact on exchanges across the front. 相似文献

A scaling factor, S, is derived to account for the difference in path-weighted measurement heights of a combined system consisting of a large-aperture
scintillometer (LAS) and a millimetre-wave scintillometer (MWS), operating at wavelengths of 0.88 μm and about 3 mm respectively,
and designed to determine the area-averaged latent heat flux. This work extends an earlier derivation of Z
ef
, the effective height for the LAS yielding the area-averaged sensible heat flux. The LAS and MWS have different path-weighting
functions, therefore, in general, it is expected that the path-weighted beam heights are different, for paths other than with
the beam parallel to the land surface. Their difference will depend on the detail of the experimental set-up. The objective
is to introduce a scaling factor that transforms the MWS refractive-index structure parameter measurement to the same path-weighted
height of the LAS measurement. By applying S as a prelude to the calculation of the temperature and humidity structure parameters, and the sensible and latent heat fluxes,
these quantities are made representative of the same measurement height, thus simplifying the application of two-wavelength
scintillometry. The equations presented here enable the analysis of LAS-MWS paths such that they can be selected to optimize
S towards its ideal value of unity. For this purpose we provide a new analytical approximation of the LAS path-weighting function.
The importance of accounting for S is demonstrated by example applications over varying topography as well as for slanted beams. 相似文献

Concentration fluctuation data from surface-layer released smokeplumes have been investigated with the purpose of finding suitable scaling parametersfor the corresponding two-particle, relative diffusion process.Dispersion properties have been measured at downwind ranges between 0.1 and 1 km from a continuous, neutrally buoyant ground level source. A combinationof SF 6 and chemical smoke (aerosols) was used as tracer. Instantaneous crosswind concentration profiles of high temporal (up to 55 Hz) and spatialresolution (down to 0.375 m) were obtained from aerosol-backscatter Lidar detectionin combination with simultaneous gas chromatograph (SF 6) reference measurements. The database includes detailed crosswind concentration fluctuation measurements. Each experiment, typically of 1/2-hour duration, containsplume mean and variance concentration profiles, intermittency profiles andexceedence and duration statistics. The diffusion experiments were accompanied by detailed in-situ micrometeorological mean and turbulence measurements. In this paper, a new distance-neighbour function for surface-released smoke plumes is proposed, accompanied by experimental evidence in its support. The new distance-neighbour function is found to scale with the surface-layer friction velocity,and not with the inertial subrange dissipation rate, over the range of distance-neighbour separations considered. 相似文献

The reduction in variance of concentration fluctuations due to line averaging is estimated assuming that the process is influenced by the integral distance scale, y
I
, of ambient turbulence and the scaling width, W, of the time-averaged plume. An analytical formula is derived for the line-averaged variance for situations where the autocorrelogram is exponential and the point variance decreases exponentially with distance from plume centerline. Predictions of concentration fluctuation variance are compared with water tank and field data, with the result that the decrease of variance with averaging distance is well-simulated if the model parameters y
I
and W are carefully chosen. 相似文献

Linear and nonlinear barotropic vorticity model frameworks are constructed to understand the formation of the monsoon trough in boreal summer over the western North Pacific. The governing equation is written with respect to specified zonal background flows, and a wave perturbation is prescribed in the eastern boundary. Whereas a uniform background mean flow leads no scale contraction, a confluent background zonal flow causes the contraction of zonal wavelength. Under linear dynamics, the wave contraction leads to the development of smaller scale vorticity perturbations. As a result, there is no upscale cascade. Under nonlinear dynamics, cyclonic (anticyclonic) wave disturbances shift northward (southward) away from the central latitude due to the vorticity segregation process. The merging of small-scale cyclonic and anticyclonic perturbations finally leads to the generation of a pair of large-scale cyclonic and anti-cyclonic vorticity gyres, straddling across the central latitude. The large-scale cyclonic circulation due to nonlinear upscale cascade can be further strengthened through a positive convection-circulation feedback. 相似文献
