基于LASG/IAP大气环流谱模式的气候系统模式

文章扼要介绍了基于LASG/IAP大气环流谱模式(SAMIL)的气候系统模式的新版本FGOALS-s的发展和结构。出于发展一个在东亚季风模拟方面有一定优势的气候系统模式之目的,FGOALS-s的大气模式分量SAMIL采用了较高的水平分辨率R42,这相当于2.8125°(经度)×1.66°(纬度),高于三角截断T42的分辨率。对FGOALS-s在模拟大气、陆面、海洋和海冰的气候平均态,以及主要的年际变率信号方面的能力进行了检验。分析表明,FGOALS-s成功地控制了气候漂移趋势,能够较为真实地模拟大气、海洋和陆面的气候平均态,特别是受益于大气模式的较高分辨率,由中国西南向东北延伸的夏季风雨带的分布,在模式中得到较为真实的再现,表明该模式在东亚夏季风的模拟上具有较强能力。耦合模式能够成功再现El Ni~no事件的非规则周期变化,但是其年际变化的振幅较之观测要弱。赤道中西太平洋年际变率的强度较之赤道中东太平洋要强。在中高纬度,模式模拟的北大西洋涛动模态,在空间分布上与观测接近。FGOALS-s模式存在的主要问题,是模拟的热带海温偏冷、而中纬度海温则偏暖,原因是模式模拟的云量分布存在偏差,它直接影响到海表的净热通量收支。模式模拟的北大西洋高纬度地区的海温明显偏冷,令该地区的年平均海冰分布的范围明显偏大;然而受南极周边海温偏高影响,南极洲周围的海冰范围则偏少。FGOALS-s的未来工作重点,宜放在大气模式的云过程、海洋模式的经向能量输送过程、以及海洋与大气的淡水通量耦合方案的改进方面。     

气候系统模式FGOALS模拟的南亚夏季风：偏差和原因分析

本文通过与观测和再分析资料的对比,评估了LASG/IAP发展的气候系统模式FGOALS的两个版本FGOALS-g2和FGOALS-s2对南亚夏季风的气候态和年际变率的模拟能力,并使用水汽收支方程诊断,研究了造成降水模拟偏差的原因。结果表明,两个模式夏季气候态降水均在陆地季风槽内偏少,印度半岛附近海域偏多,在降水年循环中表现为夏季北侧辐合带北推范围不足。FGOALS-g2中赤道印度洋"东西型"海温偏差导致模拟的东赤道印度洋海上辐合带偏弱,而FGOALS-s2中印度洋"南北型"海温偏差导致模拟的海上辐合带偏向西南。水汽收支分析表明,两个模式中气候态夏季风降水的模拟偏差主要来自于整层积分的水汽通量,尤其是垂直动力平流项的模拟偏差。一方面,夏季阿拉伯海和孟加拉湾的海温偏冷而赤道西印度洋海温偏暖,造成向印度半岛的水汽输送偏少;另一方面,对流层温度偏冷,冷中心位于印度半岛北部对流层上层,同时季风槽内总云量偏少,云长波辐射效应偏弱,对流层经向温度梯度偏弱以及大气湿静力稳定度偏强引起的下沉异常造成陆地季风槽内降水偏少。在年际变率上,观测中南亚夏季风环流和降水指数与Ni?o3.4指数存在负相关关系,但FGOALS两个版本模式均存在较大偏差。两个模式中与ENSO暖事件相关的沃克环流异常下沉支和对应的负降水异常西移至赤道以南的热带中西印度洋,沿赤道非对称的加热异常令两个模式中越赤道环流季风增强,导致印度半岛南部产生正降水异常。ENSO相关的沃克环流异常下沉支及其对应的负降水异常偏西与两个模式对热带南印度洋气候态降水的模拟偏差有关。研究结果表明,若要提高FGOALS两个版本模式对南亚夏季风气候态模拟技巧,需减小耦合模式对印度洋海温、对流层温度及云的模拟偏差;若要提高南亚夏季风和ENSO相关性模拟技巧需要提高模式对热带印度洋气候态降水以及与ENSO相关的环流异常的模拟能力。     

FGOALS-g3模拟的南亚夏季风:气候态和年际变率

南亚夏季风的变化决定着印度半岛的旱涝状况,气候系统模式则是研究南亚夏季风变化规律的重要工具。本文基于观测和JRA55再分析资料,系统评估了FGOALS-g3模式模拟的南亚夏季风气候态和年际变率,并重点关注FGOALS-g3与FGOALS-g2以及是否考虑海气相互作用的模拟差异。结果表明,由于局地海温模拟的变化,相比于FGOALS-g2,FGOALS-g3模拟的南亚夏季风在气候态热带印度洋信风和El Ni?o期间沃克环流下沉支上有明显改进。同时,由于对流层系统性冷偏差持续存在并且中心位于副热带300 hPa附近,造成气候态上经向温度梯度减弱,使季风环流减弱,导致FGOALS-g3中陆地季风槽的水汽辐散偏差和降水干偏差仍然存在;在年际变率上,FGOALS-g3模拟的El Ni?o期间赤道西太平洋海温冷异常偏弱,印度洋偶极子偏强,导致印度半岛下沉运动减弱,FGOALS-g3中ENSO—印度降水负相关关系也依然偏弱。研究表明,耦合过程导致的气候态海温偏差通过改变环流和水汽输送,有效补偿了大气模式中印度半岛中部和中南半岛的降水湿偏差;在年际变率上,耦合模式由于考虑了海温—降水—云短波辐射的负反馈过程,能够减小大气模式模拟偏差的强度,但印太暖池区海温模拟偏差导致沃克环流下沉支偏西,使得印度半岛的降水响应出现更大的湿偏差。     

GOALS/LASG模式对气候平均态的模拟

中国科学院大气物理研究所LASG最近发展了全球海洋 大气 陆面耦合气候模式系统 (GOALS)的新版本 ,实现了全球大气环流谱模式 (R42L9)与海洋环流模式 (T63L3 0 )在 40°S～ 40°N之间的开洋面上海 气通量交换的完全耦合。该模式系统已积分了 40a ,基本上不存在明显的气候漂移。文中通过对所模拟的后 3 0a平均的热带、副热带地区海温、海表风应力、洋面净通量和降水等的气候平均态与多种实测资料的对比分析 ,结果表明 ,GOALS模式基本上模拟再现了当今气候的一些主要特征 ,对热带气候平均态已具有一定的模拟能力 ,但也注意到 ,与观测相比 ,区域性差异是明显存在的 ,比如沿赤道西太平洋“暖池”区和靠近南美沿岸的东太平洋海域以及印度洋海表温度明显偏高约 2℃ ,所模拟的赤道东太平洋海温冷舌西伸明显 ,造成赤道中太平洋海温明显偏冷等偏差。这些模拟误差 ,与模式中海表风应力和洋面所得到或释放的净热通量有密切的关系。SST的模拟误差反过来也影响到对降水的模拟     

赤道东太平洋海温异常期间印度洋偶极子对东亚季风区影响的数值模拟

利用中科院大气所的IAP AGCM-Ⅱ大气环流模式，模拟了在存在和没有赤道东太平洋海温异常影响下，印度洋偶极子对东亚季风区天气气候的影响。结果表明：后者东亚地区西南季风的爆发偏晚，南海夏季风增强，此时我国大陆降水偏多；而前者西南季风的爆发将更偏晚，南海夏季风减弱，此时华北降水偏少；赤道东太平洋海温异常和印度洋偶极子有协同作用。     

气候系统模式FGOALS-s1.1对热带降水年循环模态的模拟

文中评估了中国科学院大气物理研究所大气科学和地球流体力学数值模拟国家重点实验室（LASG/IAP）新一代耦合气候模式Fgoals-s1.1对热带降水年循环模态的模拟能力。通过与观测表层海温（SST）强迫的大气模式SAMIL试验结果比较,分析了海气耦合过程对年循环模态模拟效果的影响。结果表明Fgoals-s1.1能合理再现热带地区降水年循环模态的基本特征。Fgoals-s1.1模拟出了年平均降水场中的主要降水中心,但模拟的赤道和南太平洋降水偏多,而北太平洋降水则偏少。Fgoals-s1.1的季风模态降水呈现与观测一致的关于赤道反对称的特征,其模拟偏差大部分来自大气分量,尤其是在赤道外。Fgoals-s1.1的主要缺陷在于它对春秋非对称模态模拟能力低于单独大气模式,这主要是由于耦合模式模拟的SST距平的年循环位相与观测相反。SST纬向梯度的位相偏差使得太平洋沃克环流和印度洋的反沃克环流在春季强于秋季,最终导致模拟的春秋非对称模态的偏差。Fgoals-s1.1模拟的季风区范围接近观测,存在的问题在于模拟的西北太平洋季风区、东亚季风区都偏小。本文结果表明,大气模式偏差仅是Fgoals-s1.1在降水年循环模态模拟上的偏差的部分来源,改进模式模拟的SST,特别是赤道地区SST季节循环,是今后Fgoals-s1.1发展过程中急需解决的问题。     

耦合模式FGOALS_s模拟的东亚夏季风

本文评估了中国科学院大气物理研究所大气科学和地球流体力学数值模拟国家重点实验室的海气耦合模式FGOALS_s对东亚夏季风的模拟能力, 并通过与观测海温强迫下单独大气模式SAMIL试验结果的比较, 分析了海气耦合过程对模式性能的影响。结果表明, FGOALS_s基本能够模拟出东亚夏季风系统的气候态分布及其演变过程, 但也存在明显偏差, 主要表现为模拟的温度场在对流层中上层一致性偏冷, 导致模式中环流系统强度偏弱; 而温度经向梯度模拟的不足, 直接影响到东亚副热带西风急流的模拟。通过与观测海温强迫下SAMIL模拟结果的对比发现, SAMIL模拟的温度场、 环流场以及风场较之耦合模式结果更接近观测, 但也存在与FGOALS_s类似的模式偏差。因此, 大气模式固有的偏差对耦合模式的模拟偏差有重要影响。分析发现, 对于西太平洋降水的模拟而言, 耦合模式结果更加合理, 表明海气相互作用过程对模式性能有重要影响。本文的结果表明, 大气模式自身的误差是导致耦合模式误差的主要原因。通过更新云－辐射模块改进大气模式模拟的温度场, 应是FGOALS_s后续发展的首要工作。     

海气耦合模式FGOALS-s2模拟东亚气候的能力分析

该文采用FGOALS-s2模式两个20 a积分试验的结果,一个是海气自由耦合的控制试验,另一个是由控制试验产生的月平均海温强迫大气的海温强迫试验,通过比较两个试验结果的气候态和标准差,研究海气耦合模式FGOALS-s2模拟东亚气候变率的能力。结果表明:FGOALS-s2模式控制试验能够很好的再现降水和大气环流场的气候特征。与海温强迫试验相比:耦合模式能更好的模拟东亚地区气候态,200~500 h Pa垂直积分的气温整体偏低,850 h Pa上的东亚夏季风和南亚夏季风均偏弱,青藏高原附近的降水显著偏少,阿拉伯海、孟加拉湾、南海区域降水偏多,副高减弱偏南;耦合模式模拟的东亚气候标准差,在青藏高原上空200~500 h Pa上垂直积分气温变率偏大,阿拉伯海、孟加拉湾以及南海和西北太平洋降水变率均偏少;两种试验均能较好地模拟中国雨带从华南到长江流域再到华北的季节演变过程,控制试验模拟的降水北进过程中雨带偏南,而南退过程缓慢。     

10个CMIP5模式对亚澳季风环流及其变率的模拟

利用参加第五次耦合模式比较计划(Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5,简称CMIP5)的10个海气耦合模式的输出结果,比较了这些模式对6种季风指数年际变化的模拟能力,并从季风区大气环流场的气候态以及海表温度异常(SSTA)与季风的相关关系两个方面对季风指数的模拟差异原因进行了讨论。得到结论:CMIP5模式对于季风指数年际变化模拟的结果与观测资料差异较大,其中对南亚季风指数(Webster- Yang index)模拟最好,模式集合会显著改进对南亚季风指数的模拟效果;不同模式基本可以描述出各个季风区大气环流场的气候态分布特征;耦合模式对南亚季风指数模拟的关键可能在于对SSTA的年际变化以及SSTA与季风相关关系的准确模拟。

Low-frequency climate variability of an aquaplanet

The long-term variability of an aquaplanet climate is analyzed with a coupled atmosphere–ocean–sea ice general circulation model. The main result of the 20,000 years simulation is a very dominant low-frequency oscillation with a period of approximately 700 years. All compartments of the aquaplanet (atmosphere, ocean, and sea ice) are involved as the climate alternates between warmer and colder states. Comprehensive time series analyses, as well as a comparison between mean states of cold and warm phases, give a detailed picture of the life cycle of the low-frequency oscillation. The warm phases are characterized by ice-free polar waters and a weaker meridional overturning circulation. During cold phases, the poles are completely covered by sea ice (down to 65^° N/S) and the overturning cells in the ocean are stronger. The climate state changes throughout atmosphere and ocean; however, surface areas in high latitudes are especially affected due to the changing sea ice cover. The meridional energy transport in atmosphere and ocean alternates with the climate regime, since the ocean is more efficient in transporting heat poleward when the poles are ice-free.     

Numerical Simulation of Atmosphere-Ocean-Sea Ice Interaction During Interannual Cycle in High Northern Latitudes

The interannual atmosphere-ocean-sea ice interaction （AOSI） in high northern latitudes is studied with a global atmosphere-ocean-sea ice coupled model system, in which the model components of atmosphere and land surface are from China National Climate Center and that of ocean and sea ice are from LASG, Institute of Atmospheric Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences. A daily flux anomaly correction scheme is employed to couple the atmosphere model and the ocean model with the effect of inhomogenity of sea ice in high latitudes is considered. The coupled model system has been run for 50 yr and the results of the last 30 years are analyzed. After the sea level pressure （SLP）, surface air temperature （SAT）, sea surface temperature （SST）, sea ice concentration （SIC）, and sea surface sensible heat flux （SHF） are filtered with a digital filter firstly, their normalized anomalies are used to perform the decomposition of combined complex empirical orthogonal function （CCEOF） and then they are reconstructed with the leading mode. The atmosphere-ocean-sea ice interactions in high northern latitudes during a periodical cycle （approximately 4 yr） are analyzed. It is shown that： （1） When the North Atlantic Oscillation （NAO） is in its positive phase, the southerly anomaly appears in the Greenland Sea, SAT increases, the sea loses less SHF, SST increases and SIC decreases accordingly; when the NAO is in its negative phase, the northerly anomaly appears in the Greenland Sea, SAT decreases, the sea loses more SHF, SST decreases and SIC increases accordingly. There are similar features in the Barents Sea, but the phase of evolution in the Barents Sea is different from that in the Greenland Sea. （2） For an average of multi-years, there is a cold center in the inner part of the Arctic Ocean near the North Pole. When there is an anomaly of low pressure, which is closer to the Pacific Ocean, in the inner part of the Arctic Ocean, anomalies of warm advection appear in the region near the Pacif     

北半球高纬地区年际尺度循环过程中的气-海-冰相互作用关系

基于一个全球气-海-冰耦合模式数值模拟结果,对北半球高纬度地区年际尺度的气-海-冰相互作用进行了分析.在所使用的全球气-海-冰耦合模式中,大气环流模式和陆面过程模式来自国家气候中心,海洋环流模式和海冰模式来自中国科学院大气物理研究所大气科学和地球流体力学数值模拟国家重点实验室.采用一种逐日通量距平耦合方案实现次网格尺度海冰非均匀条件下大气环流模式和海洋环流模式在高纬地区的耦合.只对50 a模拟结果中的后30 a结果进行了分析.在分析中,首先对滤波后的北半球高纬度地区海平面气压、表面大气温度、海表面温度、海冰密集度及海表面感热通量的标准化距平做联合复经验正交函数分解,取第一模进行重建,然后讨论了在一个循环周期(约4 a)中北半球高纬度地区气-海-冰的作用关系.结果表明(1)当北大西洋涛动处于正位相时,格陵兰海出现南风异常,使表面大气温度升高,海洋失去感热通量减少,海洋表面温度升高,海冰密集度减小;当北大西洋涛动处于负位相时,格陵兰海出现北风异常,使表面大气温度降低,海洋失去感热通量增多,海洋表面温度降低,海冰密集度增加.巴伦支海变化特点与格陵兰海相似,但在时间上并不完全一致.(2)多年平均而言,北冰洋内部靠近极点区域为冷中心.当北冰洋内部为低压异常时,因异常中心偏向太平洋一侧,使北冰洋内部靠近太平洋部分为暖平流异常,靠近大西洋一侧为冷平流异常.伴随着暖、冷平流异常,这两侧分别出现暖异常和冷异常,海表面给大气的感热通量分别偏少和偏多,上述海区海表面温度分别偏高和偏低,海冰密集度分别偏小和偏大.当北冰洋内部为高压异常时特点正好与上述相反.由上述分析结果可知,在海洋、大气年际循环中,大尺度大气环流变率起主导作用,海洋表面温度和海冰密集度变化主要是对大气环流变化的响应.     

NAO–ocean circulation interactions in a coupled general circulation model

The interplay between the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and the large scale ocean circulation is inspected in a twentieth century simulation conducted with a state-of-the-art coupled general circulation model. Significant lead–lag covariance between oceanic and tropospheric variables suggests that the system supports a damped oscillatory mode involving an active ocean–atmosphere coupling, with a typical NAO-like space structure and a 5 years timescale, qualitatively consistent with a mid-latitude delayed oscillator paradigm. The two essential processes governing the oscillation are (1) a negative feedback between ocean gyre circulation and the high latitude SST meridional gradient and (2) a positive feedback between SST and the NAO. The atmospheric NAO pattern appears to have a weaker projection on the ocean meridional overturning, compared to the gyre circulation, which leads to a secondary role for the thermohaline circulation in driving the meridional heat transport, and thus the oscillatory mode.     

The Annual Modes of Tropical Precipitation Simulated by the LASG/IAP Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere Model FGOALS_s1.1

This paper evaluates the performance of a coupled general circulation model FGOALS_s1.1 developed by LASG/IAP in simulating the annual modes of tropical precipitation.To understand the impacts of air-sea coupling on the annual modes,the result of an off-line simulation of the atmospheric component of FGOALS_s1.1,i.e.,LASG/IAP atmospheric general circulation model SAMIL,is also analyzed.FGOALS_s1.1 can reasonably reproduce major characteristics of the annual mean precipitation.Nonetheless,the coupled model shows overestimation of precipitation over the equatorial Pacific and tropical South Pacific,and underestimation of precipitation over the northern equatorial Pacific.The monsoon mode simulated by FGOALS_s1.1 shows an equatorial anti-symmetric structure,which is consistent with the observation.The bias of the coupled model in simulating monsoon mode resembles that of SAMIL,especially over the subtropics.The main deficiency of FGOALS_s1.1 is its failure in simulating the spring-fall asymmetric mode.This is attributed to the false phase of sea surface temperature anomaly (SSTA) annual cycleover the equatorial central-castern Pacific and Indian Ocean,which leads to the bias of the Walker circulation over the equatorial Pacific and the anti-Walker circulation over the Indian Ocean in boreal spring and fall.In addition,the domains of the western North Pacific monsoon and Indian monsoon simulated by the coupled model are smaller than the observation.The study suggests that the bias of the fully coupled oceanatmosphere model can only be partly attributed to the bias of the atmospheric component.The performance of FGOALS-s1.1 in simulating the annual cycle of equatorial SST deserves further improvement.     

Long-term Stability and Oceanic Mean State Simulated by the Coupled Model FGOALS-s2

We describe the long-term stability and mean climatology of oceanic circulations simulated by version 2 of the Flexible Global Ocean-Atmosphere-Land System model(FGOALS-s2).Driven by pre-industrial forcing,the integration of FGOALS-s2 was found to have remained stable,with no obvious climate drift over 600 model years.The linear trends of sea SST and sea surface salinity(SSS) were 0.04°C(100yr)-1 and 0.01 psu(100yr)-1,respectively.The simulations of oceanic temperatures,wind-driven circulation and thermohaline circulation in FGOALS-s2 were found to be comparable with observations,and have been substantially improved over previous FGOALS-s versions(1.0 and 1.1).However,significant SST biases(exceeding 3°C) were found around strong western boundary currents,in the East China Sea,the Sea of Japan and the Barents Sea.Along the eastern coasts in the Pacific and Atlantic Ocean,a warm bias(>3°C) was mainly due to overestimation of net surface shortwave radiation and weak oceanic upwelling.The difference of SST biases in the North Atlantic and Pacific was partly due to the errors of meridional heat transport.For SSS,biases exceeding 1.5 psu were located in the Arctic Ocean and around the Gulf Stream.In the tropics,freshwater biases dominated and were mainly caused by the excess of precipitation.Regarding the vertical dimension,the maximal biases of temperature and salinity were located north of 65°N at depths of greater than 600 m,and their values exceeded 4°C and 2 psu,respectively.     

FGOALS耦合模式对赤道太平洋海温和降水年循环的模拟评估

本文评估了中国科学院大气物理研究所大气科学和地球流体力学数值模拟国家重点实验室（LASG/IAP）研发的全球气候系统模式（FGOALS）的4个版本（FGOALS-g2、s2、g3、f3-L）对赤道太平洋地区的海温、降水气候态和季节循环的模拟能力。本文从海气耦合机制和热量收支的角度对耦合模式结果和相应的大气模式比较计划试验（AMIP）进行了对比分析,探讨了造成这一地区海温和降水模拟偏差的原因。结果显示,上一代模式g2和s2的海表温度均方根误差大于2°C,新一代模式g3和f3-L模拟的均方根误差降低50%,为1°C左右。因为新版本中赤道太平洋地区的净短波辐射平均态误差的减小,海洋上层热量动力输送过程的改善和净短波辐射与海温回归关系改进,赤道太平洋地区海温的平均态,南北温度和降水的不对称性都更加接近观测。f3-L比g3在上述方面改进更多,海温也更加合理。但是新一代版本模拟的降水均没有显著改进,赤道北侧ITCZ的降水偏大4 mm d?1。对流降水带来的凝结潜热释放加强了南北非绝热加热梯度,越赤道南风偏差抵消了一部分因为短波辐射偏大带来的海温偏暖,这说明海温平均态的改善是模拟误差相互抵消的结果。在季节循环的模拟方面也存在类似的现象,f3-L和g3中的海温年循环有所改进但较观测振幅仍旧偏弱。这是因为f3-L和g3模拟的经向风和潜热的年循环振幅比前版本要偏强,误差加大的同时也更大地抵消短波辐射的年循环偏差。g2和s2模拟的海温在赤道东太平洋则存在一个虚假半年循环分量,这主要是由潜热通量半年循环偏差所引起的。
