赤道太平洋西风异常与El Ni(n～)o的关系

分析了1980年以来赤道太平洋西风异常观测资料,并利用 POM海洋模式模拟了赤道太平洋海温对不同类型西风异常的响应.分析和数值模拟试验结果都表明,赤道太平洋上的西风异常可以引起赤道中东太平洋海温升高,但是El Ni(n～)o事件是否能发生,则与西风异常的位置、强度和东移有关.只有当赤道中太平洋(160°E～160°W)出现一定强度的西风异常并较快东移,才有利于El Ni(n～)o发生.     

赤道太平洋西风异常与El Nio的关系

分析了1980年以来赤道太平洋西风异常观测资料,并利用 POM海洋模式模拟了赤道太平洋海温对不同类型西风异常的响应.分析和数值模拟试验结果都表明,赤道太平洋上的西风异常可以引起赤道中东太平洋海温升高,但是El Nio事件是否能发生,则与西风异常的位置、强度和东移有关.只有当赤道中太平洋(160°E～160°W)出现一定强度的西风异常并较快东移,才有利于El Nio发生.     

Indices of El Nio and El Nio Modoki:An Improved El Nio Modoki Index

In recent years, El Nio Modoki (a type of pseudo-El Nio) has been distinguished as a unique large-scale ocean warming phenomenon happening in the central tropical Pacific that is quite different from the traditional El Nio. In this study, EOF analysis was used to successfully separate El Nio and El Nio Modoki. The abilities of the NINO3 index, NINO3.4 index, NINO1+2 index and NINO4 index in characterizing El Nio were explored in detail. The resulting suggestion was that, comparatively, NINO3 is the op...     

El Nio事件大气-洋流异常与暖海温传播机理研究

利用1971~2000年逐月SODA(Simple Ocean Data Assimilation)同化资料(Carton等,2004)、1980~2000年逐月NCEP/NCAR再分析资料(Kalnay等,1996)探讨中部型(暖海水首先出现在120°W以西)和东部型(暖海水首先出现在120°W以东)El Nino事件赤道纬向风应力及洋流的异常变化与暖海水信号的传播特征。研究指出:(1)中部型和东部型El Nio事件发生时,太平洋上赤道海表最大西风应力距平在西太平洋地区都有显著的东传现象,但中部型El Nio事件西风应力距平强度强,造成西太平洋赤道表层的东向流可达东太平洋地区,这类El Nio事件强度偏强。(2)中部型El Nio事件,赤道表层洋流辐合区及其下沉运动由西太平洋向东太平洋传播,辐合下沉运动抑制了深层冷海水上翻,西太平洋暖水能够传到东太平洋与西太平洋赤道表层洋流辐合区及其下沉运动的东移有关。(3)东部型El Nio事件西太平洋赤道表层洋流辐合区及其下沉运动没能直接传到东太平洋地区,东太平洋暖水形成与局地(120°W以东)辐合下沉运动抑制深层冷海水上翻有关;东部型El Nio事件暖池次表层的暖水,不是沿着西太平洋赤道次表层向东传播到东太平洋地区,而是由南太平洋西边界流将暖池海水带到40°S左右的西风漂流区,再由西风漂流平流到东太平洋。     

两类El Nio对中国东部春季降水的影响

采用1951—2012年我国160站降水资料、NCEP/NCAR再分析资料以及NOAA提供的海表温度、Nio3.4指数等资料,运用EOF分析方法和合成分析等方法分析了两类El Nio(传统El Nio和El Nio Modoki)对我国东部春季降水的影响。结果表明:传统的El Nio和第二类厄尔尼诺El Nio Modoki对我国华南地区广东一带春季降水影响较大,传统厄尔尼诺年(第二类厄尔尼诺年)广东地区降水偏多(少)。它们的影响机制与菲律宾反气旋、西太平洋副热带高压位置的偏移有关,传统厄尔尼诺年(第二类厄尔尼诺年)副热带高压位置偏南(北),华南地区对流增大(小),降水偏多(少)。     

热带太平洋地区风场异常和与El Nio有关的年际变化

利用1964~1993年NCEP/NCAR再分析风应力资料和中国科学院大气物理研究所发展的14层热带太平洋环流模式(OGCM),对热带太平洋与El Ni~no有关的年际变化进行了研究。首先,分析了西太平洋暖池次表层海温异常(SOTA)与Ni~no 3区海表温度异常(SSTA)的年际变化关系,发现在El Ni~no事件之前,暖池的次表层海温都有明显正异常出现,它的东传导致了El Ni~no的发生,并且SOTA的传播随纬度变化,沿赤道东传,在赤道外西传。然后,选取了20世纪70年代和80年代两次最强的El Ni~no事件讨论了引起这种机制的可能原因———西风异常的作用。最后,对1964~1993所有的El Ni~no年的风场、次表层海温和海表温度的异常进行了综合分析。     

A New Approach for Classifying Two Types of El Nio Events

正In recent decades, the typical El Nio events with the warmest SSTs in the tropical eastern Pacific have become less common, and a different of El Nio with the warmest SSTs in the central Pacific, which is flanked on the east and west by cooler SSTs, has become more fre-quent. The more recent type of El Nio was referred to as central Pacific El Nio, warm pool El Nio, or dateline El Nio, or the El Nio Modoki. Central Pacific El Nio links to a different tropical-to-extratropical teleconnection and exerts different impacts on climate, and several classification approaches have been proposed. In this study, a new classification approach is proposed, which is based on the linear combination (sum or difference) of the two leading Empirical Orthogonal Functions (EOFs) of tropical Pacific Ocean sea surface temperature anomaly (SSTA), and the typical El Ni o index (TENI) and the central El Nio index (CENI) are able to be derived by projecting the observed SSTA onto these combinations. This classification not only reflects the characteristics of non-orthogonality between the two types of events but also yields one period peaking at approximate two to seven years. In particular, this classification can distin-guish the different impacts of the two types of events on rainfall in the following summer in East China. The typical El Nio events tend to induce intensified rainfall in the Yangtze River valley, whereas the central Pacific El Nio tends to induce intensified rainfall in the Huaihe River valley. Thus, the present approach may be appropriate for studying the impact of different types of El Nio on the East Asian climate.     

Connections Between Different Types of El Nio and Southern/Northern Oscillation

It has long been acknowledged that there are two types of El Nio events, i.e., the eastern Pacific El Nio (EE) and the central Pacific El Nio (CE), according to the initial position of the anomalous warm water and its propagation direction. In this paper, the oceanic and atmospheric evolutions and the possible mechanisms of the two types of El Nio events were examined. It is found that all the El Nio events, CE or EE, could be attributed to the joint impacts of the eastward advection of warm water from the western Pacific warm pool (WPWP) and the local warming in the equatorial eastern Pacific. Before the occurrence of CE events, WPWP had long been in a state of being anomalous warm, so the strength of eastward advection of warm water was much stronger than that of EE, which played a major role in the formation of CE. While for the EE events, most contribution came from the local warming of the equatorial eastern Pacific. It is further identified that the immediate cause leading to the difference of the two types of El Nio events was the asynchronous variations of the Southern Oscillation (SO) and the Northern Oscillation (NO) as defined by Chen in 1984. When the transition from the positive phase of the NO (NO+) to NO- was prior to that from SO+ to SO-, there would be eastward propagation of westerly anomalies from the tropical western Pacific induced by NO and hence the growth of warm sea surface temperature anomalies in WPWP and its eastward propagation. This was followed by lagged SO-induced weakening of southeast trade winds and local warming in the equatorial eastern Pacific. These were conducive to the occurrence of the CE. On the contrary, the transition from SO+ to SO- leading the transition of NO would favor the occurrence of EE type events.     

热带太平洋经向风应力异常与El Nio的发生——(Ⅱ)动力学分析(英文)

第一部分（Ｚｈａｎｇ ｅｔ ａｌ，２００１）的资料分析表明，Ｅｌ Ｎｉｏ事件发生之前在赤道中东太平洋存在着显著的异常经向风应力辐合、为了分析这种超前的辐合经向风应力距平在其后的ＥｌＮｉｏ事件发生中的动力作用，本文利用简单热带海洋动力学模式，从动力学上研究了热带海洋对关于赤道辐合的理想经向风应力强迫的响应，指出赤道东太平洋出现在Ｅｌ Ｎｉｏ事件之前的辐合经向风应力异常有利于Ｅｌ　Ｎｉｏ事件的发生。辐合的经向风应力强迫作用于热带海洋，会激发出西传的Ｒｏｓｓｂｙ波，使得赤道附近的海洋混合层变厚。由于耗散的影响，最大的增厚区位于强迫区域。当这个强迫作用于赤道东太平洋时，这将有利于以 Ｎｌ　Ｎｉｏ事件发生；另一方面，Ｒｏｓｓｂｙ波响应在赤道及其附近使得表层海水向西流动，中东太平洋表层水的不断向西输送有利于表层水在西太平洋堆积，为后来暖事件的发生累积能量。

The Amplitude-Duration Relation of Observed El Nio Events

The authors demonstrate that the El Ni o events in the pre-and post-1976 periods show two ampli-tude-duration relations. One is that the stronger El Ni o events have longer durations, which is robust for the moderate El Ni o events; the other is that the stronger El Ni o events have shorter durations but for strong El Nio events. By estimating the sign and amplitude of the nonlinear dynamical heating (NDH) anomalies, the authors illustrate that the NDH anomalies are negligible for moderate El Nio events but large for strong El Nio events. In particular, the large NDH anomalies for strong El Nio events are positive during the growth and mature phases, which favor warmer El Nio events. During the decay phase, however, the negative NDH anomalies start to arise and become increasingly significant with the evolution of the El Nio events, in which the negative NDH anomalies dampen the sea surface temperature anomalies (SSTA) and cause the El Nio events to reach the SST normal state earlier. This pattern suggests that the nonlinearity tends to increase the intensities of strong El Nio events and shorten their duration, which, together with the previous results showing a positive correlation between the strength of El Nio events and the significance of the effect of nonlinear advection on the events (especially the suppression of nonlinearity on the SSTA during the decay phase), shows that the strong El Nio events tend to have the amplitude-duration relation of the stronger El Nio events with shorter durations. This result also lends support to the assertion that moderate El Nio events possess the amplitude-duration relation of stronger El Nio events with longer durations.     

Sensitivity Difference in the Extratropical Atmosphere to Two Types of El Nio Events

A comparison of sensitivity in extratropical circulation in the Northern Hemisphere(NH)and Southern Hemisphere(SH)is conducted through observational analyses and diagnostic linear model experiments for two types of El Nio events,the traditional El Nio with the strongest warmth in the eastern tropical Pacific(EP El Nio)and the El Nio Modoki with the strongest warmth in the central tropical Pacific(CP El Nio).It is shown that CP El Nio favors the occurrence of a negative-phase Northern Annular Mode(NAM),while EP El Nio favors that of the Pacific-North American(PNA)pattern.In SH,both EP and CP El Nio induce a negative phase Southern Annular Mode(SAM).However,the former has a greater amplitude,which is consistent with the stronger sea surface temperature(SST)warmth.The difference in the two types of El Nio events in NH may originate from the dependence of heating-induced extratropical response on the location of initial heating,which may be associated with activity of the stationary wave.In SH,the lack of sensitivity to the location of heating can be associated with weaker activity of the stationary wave therein.

两类El Ni?o事件对华南前汛期降水异常的影响

利用观测资料及模式结果探讨了EP/CP El Ni?o事件对华南前汛期（4—6月）降水异常的影响。结果发现,EP和CP型相关的华南前汛期降水异常分布之间存在明显月际差异,表现为4、5月EP（CP）型相关的降水异常以偏多（少）为主;6月则相反,EP（CP）型的降水呈负（正）异常分布。分析表明,EP型相关的4、5月偏强的副热带高压与850 hPa上西北太平洋反气旋异常相配合,有利于水汽从海洋向陆地输送,且两广地区水汽辐合,降水异常偏多;而6月相关的500 hPa异常场上对应偏强的东亚大槽,不利于水汽输送,且广东地区处于水汽辐散区,对应降水偏少。CP型相关的4、5月对应500 hPa上东亚大槽偏强,不利于水汽往陆地输送,且华南为水汽辐散,降水偏少;6月的500 hPa上呈现“+-+”的东亚-太平洋遥相关波列（EAP）型,华南地区为明显的水汽辐合,降水偏多。GFDL模式较好地再现了EP /CP型的4、5月降水异常分布及大气环流形势,但是对6月的模拟存在一定偏差。      

El Nio事件对其衰减阶段夏季中国降水季节内演变的影响及其机理

利用1979—2007年NOAA重建海温逐月资料和中国160站夏季降水资料,使用扩展奇异值分解(extended singular value decomposition,ESVD)方法,研究了冬季热带太平洋海温异常与次年夏季中国降水异常季节内演变型之间的关系,指出前冬El Nio事件是与次年夏季中国降水季节内变化相联系的最重要的热带太平洋海温异常模态。相应的降水异常季节内变化情况为:6月在长江以南为正异常,江淮流域有负异常;7月在华南沿海有负降水异常,而正异常北进到长江流域,华北地区也出现正降水异常;8月在长江南北分别为少雨和多雨。进一步研究前冬El Nio事件与次年春夏印度洋、太平洋海温异常、对流层低层风场异常以及副热带高压等的联系,结果表明:El Nio事件发生的次年春夏,热带西太平洋周边存在东负西正的海温异常分布;西太平洋反气旋异常较强;副高在6月、7月偏西偏北,但在8月迅速南退。虽然与El Nio事件相联系的6月与7月、8月的降水型不同,但是西太平洋反气旋异常带来的充沛水汽造成7月长江流域雨季多雨,8月副高迅速南退带来的又一次长江流域降水,造成了El Nio事件发生次年夏季长江流域涝而华南...
