金塔绿洲小气候效应的数值模拟

使用美国NCAR新版MM5V3．6非静力平衡模式,采用三重嵌套的降尺度方法,模拟研究了夏季金塔绿洲小气候效应特征。绿洲的存在改变了沙漠地区原有的环流结构和湿度分布;绿洲边界层低,沙漠边界层较高,绿洲较低的边界层结构实际上是一个保护层,使得绿洲大气中水分保存在较低边界层中,对绿洲生态系统的发展起到了保护作用;绿洲地区感热通量小,潜热通量大;沙漠地区感热通量大,潜热通量小。通过能量和水分的非均匀分布驱动了绿洲环流,使沙漠区域产生上升气流,绿洲区域产生下沉气流。     

不同尺度绿洲环流和边界层特征的数值模拟

使用美国NCAR新版MM5V3．4非静力平衡模式,通过三重嵌套,模拟研究了西北地区不同尺度绿洲环流及边界层特征,发现不同绿洲系统地面能量和水分的输送是不同的,尺度较小的绿洲其地面潜热大,感热相对小。R度在15km以上的绿洲可以形成绿洲一沙漠环流和绿洲的小气候,有较低的边界层,同时在绿洲边缘的沙漠形成湿气柱。尺度在儿公里的绿洲不能形成绿洲一沙漠环流和绿洲边缘的湿气柱。尺度较大的绿洲形成的温度和湿度边界层结构和环流配合,使绿洲形成具有自我保护的绿洲小气候环境,有利于绿洲生态的发展。     

青藏高原夏季大气边界层高度与地表能量输送变化特征分析

利用NCEP-FNL大气边界层高度资料和NCEP/DOE(NECP2)的地面感热、潜热通量再分析格点资料,分析了2000-2016年夏季青藏高原(下称高原)地区的大气边界层高度及感热、潜热的基本气候特征、年际变化及空间分布,地表能量输送对大气边界层高度的影响机理,并分析了影响大气边界层高度与地表能量输送的主要影响因子。结果表明:夏季高原整体呈大气边界层高度显著下降,潜热通量显著上升,感热通量先增后降的变化趋势。2009年是高原大气边界层高度的气候突变时间点,其他物理量的变化趋势也在2009年发生了转折变化。大气边界层高度和地表能量输送的线性变化趋势分布具有明显的区域差异,以91°E为界将高原分为东、西两部分,东部与西部地区的变化特征明显不同;东部、西部地区的变化特征2009年前后也有很大差异。影响西部地区大气边界层高度和地表热通量的主要因子是0～10 cm土壤含水率和10 m风速;影响东部地区大气边界层高度和地表热通量的主要因子则是云量。在2009年气候突变时间前、后,各影响因子的影响程度有很大变化。夏季高原低层热低压辐合、高层南亚高压辐散的环流形式,为地表能量输送影响高原大气边界层发展提供了动力条件,有利于上升运动。上升运动的气流能将水汽相变中释放的凝结潜热输送至对流层上层,有利于形成潜热通量和南亚高压的正反馈。     

敦煌绿洲夏季边界层特征的数值模拟

使用美国NCAR新版MM5V3．6非静力平衡模式,采用三重嵌套方法,模拟研究了沙漠绿洲的环流及边界层特征。并且与无绿洲试验进行了比较。结果表明：沙漠中的绿洲在夏季是一个冷源,地面感热通量和潜热通量与周围的沙漠地区存在较大差异。在绿洲区,感热通量小,潜热通量大;在沙漠区,感热通量大,潜热通量小。绿洲边界层顶低,沙漠边界层顶高。绿洲可以改变沙漠地区的大气稳定度,使得原来大气层结不稳定的沙漠地区出现较稳定的大气层结。沙漠绿洲改变了原有沙漠地区的环流结构及温、湿场的分布,使得在绿洲上空大气下沉,沙漠上空大气上升,从而产生了绿洲上空大气干冷,沙漠上空大气暖湿的边界特征。绿洲边缘的沙漠形成的较大的湿气柱围绕着绿洲,起到了保护绿洲的作用。沙漠绿洲低空呈现辐散气流,使得绿洲上风方的沙漠地区风速减小,绿洲下风方的沙漠地区风速增大。     

黄河源区生态环境变化对湖泊效应影响的数值模拟

利用中尺度气象模式WRF,设计了陆地生态环境好转、维持现状和退化3种情境下的模拟试验,分析了夏季黄河上游鄂陵湖湖泊效应的特征和生态环境变化对该湖泊效应的影响。结果表明,夏季晴天中午至傍晚,鄂陵湖有显著的湖风环流;白天湖面感热和潜热较小,昼(夜)表现出明显的冷(暖)湖效应;湖区低层全天呈现出"湿岛"效应;受湖风作用影响,环湖陆上白天形成"湿墙"和感热高值区;随着陆地生态环境由好转到退化,湖风环流加强,环湖"湿墙"增高,湖陆边界层高度差增大,陆面感热和潜热变化显著大于湖面;陆面边界层中下部的气温和比湿主要受下垫面影响,环境退化后分别升高和减小,而在边界层顶部由于受湖风环流的作用,两者变化趋势与中下部相反。     

WRF模式对金塔绿洲效应的数值模拟

利用美国NCAR中心的天气研究与预报模式WRF,对金塔绿洲的温度场、环流场、能量场的结构及其日变化特征进行了较为细致的模拟研究。结果表明,WRF模式能较好地模拟出非均匀下垫面上绿洲和戈壁的近地面温度、风场、净辐射、感热和潜热等要素的变化特征及日变化规律,较为完整地呈现出绿洲"冷岛效应",模拟的近地面风向和观测值吻合较好。通过对能量场的时空分析,发现下垫面的植被类型、土壤类型和土壤湿度对绿洲白天感热、潜热、土壤热通量和净辐射等有很大影响,绿洲白天净辐射峰值比戈壁大,潜热通量比感热通量大;白天大气向地面传输热量,绿洲地表获得的热通量大;而夜间地表向上传递热量,绿洲释放的热通量比戈壁大。更加细致地研究这些现象对深入了解绿洲气候的形成和维持机理具有重要的意义。     

云贵高原洱海湖泊效应的数值模拟

采用耦合湖泊模型的WRF_CLM模式模拟山谷盆地中洱海的湖泊效应,并利用陆面(农田)和湖面的站点观测资料对模式进行了验证和校验。基于数值模式的模拟结果,分析了季风和非季风期间,洱海存在与否对山谷盆地局地环流及大气边界层结构的影响。发现非季风期湖泊对局地环流及大气边界层影响显著。相对于陆地,湖泊白天湍流通量输送少,湍流发展弱,大气边界层高度低。如果湖泊不存在,白天苍山山谷风只能上升至约200 m的高度,没有明显的山谷风环流形成;夜间则山风较强,两侧山风共同作用在山谷,环流高度约600 m。季风期,受降水天气影响,局地环流发展不充分。白天湖面辐散以及夜间湖泊南部的气旋式环流弱,湖泊作用没有非季风期明显。云的形成导致边界层高度较低。夜间,湖泊增强释放潜热、感热作用明显;此时湍流发展,夜间边界层反而比白天高。     

不同土壤湿度条件下绿洲边界层特征的敏感性试验

应用NCAR的非静力平衡中尺度数值模式MM5V3．6,设计了三种不同土壤湿度对金塔绿洲边界层的特征影响的敏感性试验。结果表明：土壤灌溉后地表温度和气温升温率较灌溉前有所减小。土壤湿度越大,绿洲温度越低,绿洲的“冷岛效应”越显著。绿洲灌溉后地面感热通量较灌溉前偏低,潜热通量比灌溉前高;土壤湿度越大,这种差异越显著。土壤湿度为0．35时,绿洲能够很好地表现绿洲特性,维持其自身的发展。绿洲边界层高度在灌溉前后有很大的变化。随着土壤湿度的增加,绿洲的边界层高度逐渐降低。这种较低的边界层对绿洲起到了保护作用,它将绿洲的能量与水分保存任较低的边界层中,促进了绿洲的进一步维持和发展。     

张掖绿洲—荒漠区域近地层微气象与水热交换特征

利用张掖2012年5-9月"非均匀下垫面地表蒸散发的多尺度观测试验:通量观测矩阵"数据,结合同步观测的航空和卫星遥感图像,分析了绿洲-荒漠区域近地层气象要素、辐射和能量收支特征。结果表明:(1)相对于荒漠,绿洲表现出冷、湿、风屏、增雨等"绿洲效应"。在不同的天气背景下,绿洲与荒漠及绿洲内不同田块之间存在不同尺度的相互作用过程;平流发生时,绿洲近地层出现逆温,且湿度上升,临近戈壁的近地层湿度也上升;绿洲灌溉后气温达峰值的时间滞后;在大风天,绿洲、荒漠的风向比较一致,而小风天则受到局地环流影响,绿洲内、外风向不一致。绿洲降水量大于荒漠。绿洲土壤水分明显大于荒漠,且绿洲为灌溉控制型,荒漠为降水控制型。(2)绿洲与荒漠的太阳总辐射一致;绿洲的大气逆辐射稍大;荒漠地表反射辐射和地表长波辐射明显偏大,净辐射则偏小。(3)绿洲潜热通量远大于荒漠,土壤热通量和感热通量小于荒漠;绿洲的能量输送以潜热通量为主;荒漠以感热通量为主。晴天下午绿洲经常出现感热通量为负,潜热通量超过净辐射的现象-平流/局地环流。由于风场以及绿洲-荒漠水热条件差异程度不同,绿洲不同站点平流出现的时间及强度不同。     

南亚夏季风爆发前后青藏高原地表热通量的长期变化特征分析

青藏高原作为世界第三极,其热力强迫作用不仅对亚洲季风系统的发展和维持十分重要,也会对大气环流场产生深远影响。利用欧洲中期天气预报中心（ECMWF）的ERA-Interim中1979-2016年3-10月青藏高原及其周边地区的地表热通量月平均再分析资料,通过分析得出以下结论:3-5月青藏高原主体由感热占据,感热强度快速上升且呈西高东低的分布态势,潜热强度较小但随时间而增强。季风爆发后的6-8月,青藏高原感热强度减弱,潜热强度迅速增强且呈东高西低的分布特征。季风消退后的9-10月,感热与潜热强度相当,但感热呈现出西高东低的分布特征。过去38年,青藏高原地表感热总体呈现微弱下降趋势,潜热呈较弱上升趋势。青藏高原西部地区感热呈微弱下降趋势,潜热呈上升趋势。东部感热呈较为明显的下降趋势且近年来变化趋势增强,东部潜热通量则呈现较为明显的上升趋势,分析结论与近期全球变暖条件下青藏高原气候变暖变湿这一变化状况一致,通过对青藏高原地表热通量的变化分析为下一步运用第三次青藏高原大气科学试验所获资料分析青藏高原上空大气热源的变化以及地表加热场如何影响大气环流奠定基础。      

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.     

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.     

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.
