SWAN系统中QPE产品的应用评估

“灾害天气短时临近预报系统”(SWAN)在我国气象预报业务中已得到广泛应用。文章介绍其中雷达定量降水估算QPE算法 (RASIM方法)的技术与特点,选取湖北省6部S波段多普勒天气雷达在2012年探测的暴雨天气过程资料,系统性评估了SWAN系统中QPE产品实用性,初步分析了产生估算误差的原因。评估表明：整体而言该方法在湖北省使用效果较好,平均绝对误差率小于30%;探测距离的增加对S波段雷达QPE精度影响不大;各雷达对30 mm以上降水的估算平均绝对误差率较小,但估算结果较实况偏弱,随着雨量（雨强）增大,低估的比例也增大。就单部雷达而言,宜昌雷达估算降水误差最大,武汉雷达受附近建筑遮挡影响次之,恩施雷达估算降水误差最小。     

CAMS多普勒天气雷达探测能力的估算

本文根据CAMS多普勒天气雷达实测参数对雷达的探测能力进行了估算。CAMS 多普勒天气雷达对降水强度的探测能力将比国内目前应用的713、714天气雷达更强,在200公里处能探测到的最小降水强度为0.08毫米/小时。它还具有较强的晴空探测能力,在低仰角探测时,有可能探测到50公里范围内的晴空回波,从而进行风暴前的流场研究。采用 VAD 方式可获取3公里以下晴空大气的风剖面廓线,与美国强风暴实验室(NSSL)的 NRO 多普勒天气雷达的晴空探测能力相近。由系统的相位噪声估算出测速精度为0.1米/秒左右。潜在的地物对消能力达—41db。

相控阵天气雷达与多普勒雷达的探测精度与探测能力对比研究

相控阵技术应用到大气探测领域是一项崭新的课题,国外已开展了此项研究.为了研究相控阵天气雷达在大气探测领域的探测能力和探测精度,使用美国相控阵天气雷达与多普勒天气雷达同步探测的两次强天气资料,分析比较了两部不同扫描体制雷达的径向探测精度、切向探测精度、扫描时间、灵敏度以及在探测强风暴反射率因子特征、径向速度和超级单体的演变过程.结果表明:电扫描雷达的探测精度会随着波束指向角的变化而变化,而多普勒雷达在整个扫描范围内不随扫描方向角的改变而改变.相控阵天气雷达的切向分辨率比多普勒雷达低,提出了在方位上采用窄波束、俯仰方向上采用宽波束扫描,同时在接收时采用多个窄波束覆盖发射波束的接收方法.将存在模糊的速度场恢复为连续的速度场然后再对速度数值进行调整的退模糊方法也能剔除波束多路转换扫描方式下的速度模糊现象.

雷达回波大地坐标的参考定位计算方法

随着现代空间技术发展和国家大地坐标系CGCS2000的全面启用,精确的点位坐标得到了广泛地应用。库长小于百米的高分辨率天气雷达的业务化应用,提高了回波点位表达的准确性要求。在本研究中,定义了雷达“参考定位球”,利用CGCS2000的三维地心坐标,在参考定位球和地球椭球体之间建立数学联系,通过大地坐标、参考坐标和雷达观测坐标之间的相互转换,实现了雷达回波大地坐标的精确计算。在此基础上对目前普遍采用的地球圆球体近似方法进行了误差分析:其误差以水平偏离为主,偏离程度与雷达观测坐标和雷达纬度位置有关,高纬度雷达和低纬度雷达的偏离程度要大于中纬度雷达;最大偏离随距离增加而增加,探测距离50~400 km的最大偏离与探测距离之比在2‰~5‰之间,一般情况下可忽略,在坐标精度要求较高时需要考虑误差带来的影响。     

平面相控阵脉冲压缩的雷达气象方程

在低发射功率条件下,相控阵多普勒天气雷达为了增加探测距离和提高分辨率,需要采用脉冲压缩技术.由于采用相控阵技术,波束扫描过程中,在平面阵非法线方向上会产生波束展宽,引起波束内功率下降,需要在计算雷达气象方程时弥补功率下降的误差.平面相控阵天气雷达在探测远距离目标时,使用宽脉冲发射,经脉冲压缩处理以提高分辨率,因此需要建立适用的雷达气象方程.首先讨论了脉冲压缩低峰值功率的平面相控阵多普勒天气雷达的结构、线性调频脉冲压缩的距离(多普勒测量)、调频波形的耦合问题以及目标距离的测量;然后给出了适用于脉冲压缩的平面相控阵雷达气象方程,此方程同时也适用于一维线性阵的脉冲压缩的天气雷达.

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.
