地形驻波与地形瞬变波

本文用二层准地转截断谱模式,解析地指出,在一定的条件下,地形强迫作用能够激发出地形驻波或地形瞬变波.给出了地形驻波的表达式并初步讨论了地面摩擦、垂直向及水平向内摩擦在地形驻波形成中的作用.地形瞬变波振荡频率的解析表达式及有关计算表明,两周左右的中期波振荡,就其动力学性质而言,有些是自由的斜压波,有些是受地形强迫影响的地形瞬变波.Charney曾解析地讨论了正压大气中一种地形驻波的稳定性,本文将此扩展到斜压的情况,所得的结果基本上是一致的.     

包括大地形作用的大气环流模式的长时期性状

本文用一个两层斜压原始方程模式研究了包含大地形作用的大气环流模式的长时期性状.首先以刚体旋转为初值条件,用绝热无摩擦的两层斜压模式作了一个月的数值积分,研究了模式大气对纯粹地形强迫的响应.结果发现积分至第15天以后,中纬度西风渐弱,使得积分前期由地形强迫产生的槽脊难以辨认.本文通过不同模式之间的比较,对500hPa高度场上的球谐分析以及对动量方程的诊断,认为它是一种确定的动力学现象,而不是计算紊乱.在模式中引入纬向对称型加热和地面摩擦过程后,即使将模式积分长达5个月以上,由地形强迫激发的扰动所形成的槽脊仍可长久地维持,但它不是简单意义下的定常波,位相分析表明只有二波分量近似驻波,与转盘实验结果相似.     

大气环流的不连续振荡和指数循环

本文利用两层斜压准地转模式,在低谱简化下,得到一个热力强迫波,瞬变波与纬向气流相互作用的非线性方程组。在近共振和弱斜压不稳定的假定下,利用多尺度方法和不连续振动分析方法,详细讨论了相空间中解的性质。初步讨论了大气环流非均匀指数循环的物理机制。     

旋转流体物理实验中见到的大气环流特征

在合适的实验参数下(热力Rossby数R_(OT)=0.1,Taylor数T_a=2.2 ×10~7),在旋转斜压流中,大尺度地形强迫造成低频振荡以及大气环流中的“阻塞”流型。这是由于地形强迫造成的准静止波与行进波的相互作用及共振引起的。地形把波数单一的流动变成多波数的流动。地形强迫使波数减少。     

模式大气对于非绝热加热场的线性响应

本文利用一个包含了Newton冷却、Rayleigh摩擦以及▽~4型水平扩散等耗散作用的定常、斜压、线性初始方程三维谱模式,研究了热带和中纬度理想热源以及1979年1月北半球平均非绝热加热场对于冬季行星尺度的大气定常波的影响。数值试验结果表明,热力强迫作用的重要性可以与北半球大地形的动力强迫作用相比拟。利用1979年1月平均加热场作为强迫函数计算得到的强迫扰动,主要表现为纬向波数为2的行星波,并具有明显的斜压结构。热带地区纬向非均匀热源所激发的近似地沿大园路径传播的Rossby波列,对于热带区域与中、高纬大气之间的遥相关现象提供了一种可能的解释,同时,热带外区域的加热场对于整个半球范围内定常波的维持有着更显著的贡献。     

关于大气环流型季节特征形成的物理因子的数值试验

本文着重研究大气环流季节特征的成因问题。模式试验中将牛顿强迫项的平衡温度斜压结构作类似冬夏气候特征的变化,且加入南北半球大地形强迫作用,研究大气环流型对冬夏全球热力结构特征以及南北半球大地形强迫效应的响应。     

经圈环流在大气对SSTA强迫响应中的作用

本文建立了一个包括经向Hadley环流作用的简单半谱模式并从1982年欧洲中心的客观分析资料中得到全球纬向平均场。经一系列数值实验发现，当SSTA处于赤道地区时，由它强迫产生的波动可以同时向南北半球传播。但若考虑经向Hadley环流（υ）的作用，波传播的空间位相和振幅就有比较明显的变化，并更接近于实际大气环流异常情况。当非绝热加热源位于偏离赤道的南北半球时，实验结果表明，如果不考虑Hadley环流，南北半球的非绝热加热很难在另一半球产生强的大气响应；考虑了Hadley环流后，则非绝热加热产生的波动可向另一半球传播。数值实验结果还表明，夏季当非绝热加热源的位置改变时，大气对其改变的响应不明显，而冬季大气对非绝热加热源的纬向位置的响应却非常敏感。     

地形和非绝热加热共同强迫的流型突变

本文用低谱模式,研究了地形和非绝热加热共同强迫的准地转气流的突变。在一定的参数集合,随着外部热力强迫参数的渐变,激发出了谱系数与西风急流位置的突变。 与单纯非绝热加热强迫的情况相比,地形引入后,改变了流型多平衡态的参数范围和流型突变的参数临界点的位置,并使平衡态流型的经向度加大。由夏至冬转换期间突然建立的南支急流的形态也更为接近观测事实。     

热力强迫对湿斜压大气中南亚高压平衡态的影响

本文基于Lorenz的湿模式,引入地形效应并进行适当简化,在低谱近似下得到了描述大气运动的非线性耗散系统。讨论了在热力强迫与大气环流的非线性相互作用下,湿、斜压大气在参数空间的平衡态与南亚高压的流型分布及其东西摆动。结果表明:南亚高压典型的平衡态流型是西部型、东部型和带状高压,而且东西部流型的转换并非高压中心的连续位移,而是表现为一个高压中心消失后经过流场上的调整重新建立新的高压中心的过程。     

亚洲夏季风环流结构与热带印度洋偶极型海温异常

使用T42L28大气环流模式就夏季风时期大气对印度洋海温偶极子型异常的响应进行了数值试验研究,结果表明,印度洋偶极子型海温异常可以引起感热和潜热加热异常并进而形成异常辐合辐散,导致热带印度洋及其邻近地区夏季降水异常。同时此热带扰动可激发或造成中纬度异常波列。通过改变季风区温度场分布,偶极子型海温强迫可以影响大气的正／斜压环流结构和斜压性强弱。强的纬向风垂直切变趋向于靠近海洋异常偏暖的地区。不论是正偶极子型强迫或负偶极子型强迫,西太平洋暖池和东亚地区的大气环流均出现异常并激发出中纬度的异常波列,但异常类型并未显著反相。

Comparing the theoretical versions of the Beaufort scale, the T-Scale and the Fujita scale

2005 is the bicentenary of the Beaufort Scale and its wind-speed codes: the marine version in 1805 and the land version later. In the 1920s when anemometers had come into general use, the Beaufort Scale was quantified by a formula based on experiment. In the early 1970s two tornado wind-speed scales were proposed: (1) an International T-Scale based on the Beaufort Scale; and (2) Fujita's damage scale developed for North America. The International Beaufort Scale and the T-Scale share a common root in having an integral theoretical relationship with an established scientific basis, whereas Fujita's Scale introduces criteria that make its intensities non-integral with Beaufort. Forces on the T-Scale, where T stands for Tornado force, span the range 0 to 10 which is highly useful world wide. The shorter range of Fujita's Scale (0 to 5) is acceptable for American use but less convenient elsewhere. To illustrate the simplicity of the decimal T-Scale, mean hurricane wind speed of Beaufort 12 is T2 on the T-Scale but F1.121 on the F-Scale; while a tornado wind speed of T9 (= B26) becomes F4.761. However, the three wind scales can be uni-fied by either making F-Scale numbers exactly half the magnitude of T-Scale numbers [i.e. F′half = T / 2 = (B / 4) − 4] or by doubling the numbers of this revised version to give integral equivalence with the T-Scale. The result is a decimal formula F′double = T = (B / 2) − 4 named the TF-Scale where TF stands for Tornado Force. This harmonious 10-digit scale has all the criteria needed for world-wide practical effectiveness.     

准两年振荡对大气中微量气体分布的影响

NCAR的包含化学、辐射、动力相互作用的两维模式（SOCRATES）移植回国后进行了初步的模拟试验,用以研究某些对环境问题重要的微量气体的化学、辐射、动力传输过程。在不考虑极地平流层云和气溶胶表面非均相化学等情况下,模式积分多年,计算结果稳定,模拟的风场、温度场显示出正常的季节变化,模拟的微量气体分布与卫星实测资料对照,结果也比较一致。为了探讨热带平流层风场的准两年周期振荡（QBO）对平流层微量气体分布的影响,我们做了QBO强迫的数值试验,即在模式中加入QBO强迫,并与不考虑QBO强迫的模拟结果对比。结果表明,QBO与其相关的次级环流所引起动力输送的变化,使平流层微量气体分布发生变化。     

Quantifying the uncertainty of the annular mode time scale and the role of the stratosphere

The impact of high resolution modern vegetation cover on the West African climate is examined using the International Centre for Theoretical Physics Regional Climate Model implementing the NCAR Community Land Model. Two high resolution 25 km long-term simulations driven by the output from a coarser 50-km resolution simulation are performed for the period 1998–2010. One high resolution simulation uses an earlier and coarser-resolution version of plant functional type distribution and leaf area index, while the other uses a more recent, higher-quality, and finer-resolution version of the data. The results indicate that the new land cover distribution substantially alters the distribution of temperature with warming in Central Nigeria, northern Gulf of Guinea and part of the Sahel due to the replacement of C4 grass with corn; and cooling along the coastlines of the Gulf of Guinea and in Central Africa due to the replacement of C4 grass with tropical broadleaf evergreen trees. Changes in latent heat flux appear to be largely responsible for these temperature changes with a net decrease (increase) in regions of warming (cooling). The improved land cover distribution also results in a wetter monsoon season. The presence of corn tends to favor larger precipitation amounts via more intense events, while the presence of tropical broadleaf evergreen trees tends to favor the occurrence of both more intense and more frequent events. The wetter conditions appear to be sustained via (1) an enhanced soil moisture feedback; and (2) elevated moisture transport due to increased low-level convergence in regions south of 10N where the most substantial land cover differences are present. Overall the changes induced by the improved vegetation cover improve, to some extent, the performance of the high resolution regional climate model in simulating the main West African summer monsoon features.

On the forecast of the onset and end of the convective season in the Amazon

Summary ?Some features of the climate system that can be considered predictors of the onset and end of the convective season over the Amazon were identified using one-month lag correlations and field composites. The fields analyzed were sea surface temperature (SST), outgoing long-wave radiation (OLR), vertical velocity and upper tropospheric winds. Warm (cold) anomalies in the SST in the tropical North Atlantic and the Caribbean Sea tend to be associated with delayed (early) onsets. Likewise, there is a tendency towards a delayed (early) end of the convective season with cold (warm) anomalies in these ocean regions. In addition, the SST in the cold tongue region of the equatorial Pacific is negatively, though weakly correlated with the onset date. The signal of this SST is more evident in the case of the end date, which is earlier with respect to its mean date in most of El Ni?o cases. The convective activity intensity itself conditions the onset and the end of the convective season, as it is evidenced by the behavior of the OLR and the vertical velocity fields. The more (less) intense the convective activity over South America during the preceding month, the earlier the onset and the later the end of the convective season on the Amazon region. The prediction of the onset and end dates of the convective season in the Amazon region was explored using a simple multiple regression technique based on the variables that have shown precursor signals with respect to these dates. The correlation coefficient between the predicted and the observed onset date is 0.81, and in the case of the end date, it is 0.76. The skill to predict early, delayed and normal categories was high, since in more than two thirds of the cases the category was successfully predicted, and there were no predictions of categories opposed to those observed.

Analysis of the Characteristics of the Low-level Jets in the Middle Reaches of the Yangtze River during the Mei-yu Season

Here, we analyze the characteristics and the formation mechanisms of low-level jets(LLJs) in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River during the 2010 mei-yu season using Wuhan station radiosonde data and the fifth generation of the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts(ERA5) reanalysis dataset. Our results show that the vertical structure of LLJs is characterized by a predominance of boundary layer jets(BLJs) concentrated at heights of 900–1200 m.The BLJs occur most frequently at 230...
