GEV干旱指数及其在气象干旱预测和监测中的应用和检验

介绍了一种新的基于广义极值分布(Generalized Extreme Value,GEV)的干旱指数的构建过程及其原理。并利用1951—2010年中国地区160个气象台站的逐月降水资料,选择6个代表台站,检验1951—2010年60年间预测的干旱和实际干旱事件发生的吻合程度;利用2009—2010年资料检验GEV指数和实际发生的干旱事件在月尺度上的监测效果。结果表明,利用GEV方法定义的干旱指数能较好地监测干旱事件的发生和发展,与目前广泛使用的Ci指数监测结果较为一致。同时这种指数也能用于某一地区干旱事件的预测和干旱等级的划分。对干旱业务监测和预测有重要的参考意义。但该指数对站点疏密有一定的依赖性,站点稀疏的区域存在着一些误差。

Drought risk assessment in the western part of Bangladesh

Though drought is a recurrent phenomenon in Bangladesh, very little attention has been so far paid to the mitigation and preparedness of droughts. This article presents a method for spatial assessment of drought risk in Bangladesh. A conceptual framework, which emphasizes the combined role of hazard and vulnerability in defining risk, is used for the study. Standardized precipitation index method in a GIS environment is used to map the spatial extents of drought hazards in different time steps. The key social and physical factors that define drought vulnerability in the context of Bangladesh are identified and corresponding thematic maps in district level are prepared. Composite drought vulnerability map is developed through the integration of those thematic maps. The risk is computed as the product of the hazard and vulnerability. The result shows that droughts pose highest risk to the northern and northwestern districts of Bangladesh.     

植被状况指数的改进及在西北干旱监测中的应用

干旱是全球分布最广、发生频率最高、持续时间最长、影响范围最大、造成的经济损失最为严重的一种自然灾害，干旱也是所有自然灾害中影响因子最为复杂、人类了解最少、监测最为困难的一种自然灾害，干旱监测是世界性的难题。干旱可以发生在任何气候带上，但干旱、半干旱地区是全球干旱灾害发生最频繁的地区。干旱发生特征和规律因地区的不同会有很大的差异，不同地区对干旱监测方法不同。目前，世界各国干旱监测主要利用基于气象、水文、农业和卫星遥感等观测资料建立的各种干旱指数开展，已经有150多种干旱指数。植被状况指数VCI是应用最为广泛的一种卫星监测干旱的指数，研究和业务应用结果表明，VCI对全球各地的干旱均有较好的反映，已经应用在美国国家大气海洋局（NOAA）日常干旱监测业务中，中国国家卫星气象中心干旱卫星遥感监测服务产品也是以VCI为基础。 我国干旱半干旱地区主要分布在新疆、甘肃、青海、陕西、宁夏以及内蒙古自治区的中西部，这里降水少且不稳定，降水变率大，是中国干旱发生频率最高的地区。干旱严重制约着当地经济发展和人类生活质量的提高，使本身非常脆弱的生态环境趋于恶化。为了了解条件植被指数VCI对西北地区不同气候区干旱的监测能力，以上述6省（区）为研究区，利用1982—2003年22年NDVI数据，计算了研究区域22年来逐月的VCI，对比分析了不同气候区VCI与降水距平的关系。结果表明，VCI在空间和时间上较好地反映了西北大部分气候干旱发生、发展和空间分布，是干旱监测的较好指标，但在干旱和极端干旱地区，VCI经常出现异常偏高现象，不能反映干旱气候区常年干旱的基本特点。通过对西北不同生态系统之间NDVI特点和各生态系统间NDVI年变化及其年际变化规律的研究，设计了VCI改进方案，提出了改进的条件植被指数RVCI。通过对22年来逐月RVCI与VCI的对比，RVCI客观地反映了干旱气候区常年干旱特点，较VCI有显著改进。      

IPCC AR4多模式对中国地区干旱变化的模拟及预估

使用中国地区温度、降水格点观测数据以及多模式集合平均数据,计算了帕尔默干旱指数(Palmer Drought Severity Index),评估了全球气候模式对中国地区1961—2000年干旱变化特征的模拟能力,预估了SRES A1B情景下在2011—2050年干旱的可能变化.结果表明:对于衡量干旱变化特征的干旱频率、持续时间、干旱面积等几个指标,整个中国地区区域平均的模拟值与观测值较为符合;模式能够模拟再现西北地区的干旱变化特征,模拟的干旱程度在华北地区偏弱、长江以南地区偏强.2011—2050年SRES A1B情景下,中国地区表现为持续的干旱化趋势;总体干旱面积和干旱频率持续增加,其中极度干旱的持续增加占主要作用.从EOF分析结果看,未来40a中国地区以整体干旱分布型为主.     

Research Progress and Prospect of Integrated Drought Monitoring Based on Multi-source Information

At present, drought monitoring has changed from single factor to multi-factor comprehensive direction. In order to better promote the development of comprehensive drought monitoring theory and related models, the conceptual connotation of comprehensive drought monitoring was comprehensively and systematically analyzed, and the construction methods of comprehensive drought monitoring model were sorted out, which were divided into fiveWater balance model method, linear model combination method, multi-variable joint distribution function method, principal component analysis method and multi-source information data mining method. Furthermore, in view of the current challenges and shortcomings of integrated drought monitoring, the direction of future development of integrated drought monitoring model was put forward, that is, at the theoretical level: The first is to study the internal mechanism of drought and its occurrence and development process, clarify the relationship among the factors affecting drought, and construct a comprehensive quantitative drought monitoring model integrating multiple factors; The second is to enhance the pertinence of drought monitoring model, develop suitable drought monitoring model according to different regions, underlying surface, growing season, etc.;The third is to construct the precision verification index system of comprehensive monitoring model for drought in view of the difficulty of model validation. At the technical level, the integration and fusion of drought-related multi-source information is studied to improve its comprehensive utilization level and provide abundant data support and technical support for drought monitoring.

中国旱灾农业承灾体脆弱性诊断与评价

旱灾是世界上影响面最广、造成农业损失最大的自然灾害类型，世界近一半的国家干旱严重。中国旱灾频繁，每年旱灾损失占各种自然灾害损失的15%以上，随着人口和农业的快速发展，农业承灾体脆弱性对灾情的放大也在增加。基于灾害系统理论，从致灾因子和耕地承灾体的区域组合角度，在旱灾频发高值区，选择雨养农业、灌溉农业和水田农业为主要承灾体类型，构建了农业旱灾脆弱性生产压力和生活压力，灾前—灾中易损性和灾中—灾后适应性等农业旱灾承灾体脆弱性诊断指标体系。提出脆弱性评价的区域模型，即：雨养农业的易损—适应模型（兴和）、灌溉农业的生产—生活压力模型（邢台）和水田农业的需水—灌水模型（鼎城）。基于农业承灾体脆弱性评价，提出制定适应降水变化的波动土地利用结构调整区域政策、建立农业生态—生产范式、建立“水银行”管理机制、建立用水效益和开源节流的评估体系以及加强“截水—抽水—控水”为一体的灌溉系统工程建设，提高灌溉应急能力等对策，以期为农业旱灾的防御和区域粮食安全决策提供科学依据。

采用标度变换法对陇中地区1368—1948年(明代至新中国建立前)各等级干旱灾害及旱季序列的时间分维值进行测算。并深入讨论了各旱灾序列时间分维与其线性特征之间的关系,以及分维随时间演进的变化趋势。对4个干旱等级、4个旱季序列的分维值进行研究,发现:①干旱灾害具有客观的分形结构,其时间序列是具有自组织性质的,干旱灾害是自组织系统;②各等级干旱灾害有自己的时间重演律,干旱灾害越轻,无标度区越宽,分维值越高,短周期更明显;③各旱季分维值与其发生频次成正比;④整个时期的动态总体上表现为:各旱灾序列(旱灾、大旱灾、中度干旱、春旱及伏旱)分维值逐渐增大,旱灾发生趋向混沌无序,旱灾系统趋向平衡态,稳定性减小;⑤分形分析法与常规统计方法之间有着内在联系。     

An Operational Agricultural Drought Risk Assessment Model for Nebraska, USA

Drought is a common occurrence in Nebraska and agriculture is the primary economic sector affected. Because of repeated and widespread severe drought impacts, more emphasis on drought risk management is warranted. This study develops an agricultural drought risk assessment model using multivariate techniques. The model is specific to corn and soybeans and is able to assess real-time agricultural drought risk associated with crop yield losses at critical phenological stages prior to and during the growing season. The assessment results are presented in a Geographic Information System to provide a better visualization. This model provides information in a timely manner about potential agricultural drought risks on dryland crop yield to decision makers ranging from agricultural producers to policy makers from local to national levels.

Relationship between South Asia High Low Frequency Oscillation and the Drought and Flood in the Middle and Lower Reaches of the Yangtze River

Based on the NCEP/NCAR daily reanalysis data and the daily rainfall data of ground observation at 164 weather stations in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River from 1960 to 2013, the relationship between South Asia high low frequency oscillation and the drought and flood in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River were analyzed using a composite analysis, wavelet analysis and band-pass filtering analysis method. The results indicated that in the typical drought and flood years, the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau 200 hPa atmosphere u, v low-frequency primary cycle and the summer rainfall cycle over the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River were the same. In more summer rainfall, from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau to east China and west Pacific coast, there existed a cycle-anticyclone-cycle low frequency wave train. Low-frequency anticyclone controlled eastern China and the low-frequency cyclone controlled the northern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. In drought years, results were opposite. In flood years, the precipitation of low frequency over the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and that of 200 hPa atmospheric low frequency change of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau was closely related. When the northerly wind in the northeast part of the the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River was strong, and Lake Baikal southerly wind was strong, there was more precipitation. On the contrary, precipitation was less. The low frequency oscillation wave train was mainly spread from the northeast of China and Japan's southern to China’s southwest. However, in drought years, the relationship between them was not clear and needed to be further studied.     

论气候变暖背景下干旱和干旱灾害风险特征与管理策略简

The drought is a most severe natural disaster worldwide, which leads to great risk in human being. The drought disaster and risk have more prominent because of obvious climatic warming in the last hundred years. At present, the understanding of the internal laws of the occurrence of drought and drought risk is not comprehensive, and the recognition of the characteristics of the drought and drought risk under climatic warming is obscure. In this paper, we summarized systematically the domestic and overseas research progress of the drought and drought disaster risk, introduced the principle of the drought disaster transfer process and the essential features of drought disaster, analyzed synthetically the main characteristics and interactions among the key factors of the drought disaster risk, discussed the effect of climatic warming on drought and drought disaster risk, and probed into the basic requirement of drought disaster risk management. Above all, we provide the main protective measurements of the drought disaster and the main strategy of drought disaster risk management.     

Drought, vegetation change, and human history on Rapa Nui (Isla de Pascua, Easter Island)

Stratigraphic records from lake sediment cores and slope deposits on Rapa Nui document prehistoric human impacts and natural environmental changes. A hiatus in sedimentation in Rano Raraku suggests that this lake basin dried out sometime after 4090-4410 cal yr BP and refilled only decades to centuries before AD 1180-1290. Widespread ecosystem changes caused by forest clearance by Polynesian farmers began shortly after the end of this drought. Terrestrial sections show a chronology of burning and soil erosion similar to the lake cores. Although changing sediment types and shifts in the pollen rain suggest that droughts occurred earlier in the Holocene, as yet there is no evidence for droughts occurring after AD 1180-1290. The timing of the agricultural colonization of Rapa Nui now seems well established at ca. AD 1200 and it was accompanied by rapid deforestation that was probably exacerbated by the island's small size, its droughty climate, and the rarity of primeval fires. Detailed records of a large interval of Rapa Nui's ecological history remain elusive due to the drought hiatus in the Rano Raraku sediment record. We find no evidence for a “rat outbreak impact” on Rapa Nui's vegetation preceding anthropogenic forest clearance.     

Drought in the Sahel

The Sahel region of West Africa is well known as a region of environmental degradation. The reported incidence of desertification has been challenged but persistent and widespread drought is still widely accepted. Drought, defined solely as a function of rainfall, is believed to have commenced in the early 1970s and continued through to the present. It is usually defined as a meteorological phenomenon and standardised rainfall anomalies are employed to indicate the severity of negative departures from the ‘norm’. There are several difficulties with this approach. The period of standardising rainfall has changed from 1931–1960 to 1961–1990 but the impacts on drought occurrence have not been fully determined. The spatial aggregation of rainfall anomalies may mask important local variation and the purely statistical approach to defining drought takes little account of human impact. The first two issues, averaging period and spatial aggregation, are investigated through an analysis of rainfalls in Continental Sahel (Bukina Faso, Mali and Niger). A new classification of drought classes is suggested. Despite the clear evidence of negative rainfall anomalies for rainfalls aggregated across the Sahel region, it is found that the averaging period has a significant impact on our perceptions of the occurrence of what can be considered to be meteorological drought according to the definition employed and that there is significant spatial variation. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.
