夏季绿洲气候效应的观测和数值模拟

利用“金塔绿洲能量水分循环观测试验”的资料和中尺度数值模式对绿洲小气候效应进行了17天较长序列的研究,在模拟过程中每天替换土壤湿度。研究结果表明：在分析时段内2004年7月6目前和9日后分别盛行西北风和东风两种背景风;白天,绿洲低层相对沙漠是一个冷源,随着高度的增加逐渐转为暖中心,温度场在600～700hPa之间转变。当背景风较大时,绿洲上空的温度中心会偏向绿洲中心下游。白天绿洲低层风场平均态为在东风背景场的基础上向南北两侧辐散,随着高度的增加风场逐渐由辐散转为向绿洲的辐合,转变高度在700hPa以下,且低于温度场的转变高度。白天绿洲上以下沉运动为主,绿洲风次级环流是绿洲上夏季晴天长期存在的平均态。当背景风较小时绿洲低层可形成向四周辐散的风场,当背景风场过大时,无绿洲环流生成。绿洲为高湿场,在绿洲边缘沙漠上存在的逆湿和高水汽柱,既阻止沙漠上干热气流侵入绿洲,又防止绿洲上水汽的流失。白天沙漠、绿洲的地表能量通量差异较大,绿洲上以潜热为主,沙漠上以感热为主,二者量级相当。绿洲上的边界层高度低于沙漠的,对绿洲生态系统起一定的保护作用。     

夏季金塔绿洲风环流的数值模拟及结构分析

利用中尺度数值模式MM5，替换了模式第三重嵌套模拟域中金塔绿洲及周围地区与实际不符的植被类型，对2004年7月5日金塔绿洲效应进行了较为成功的模拟。模拟结果显示：白天绿洲是一冷源，这一现象可维持到3000m左右，临近地面沙漠绿洲温差最大，冷中心强度由低层向高层逐渐减弱；气压距平场低层为沙漠低，绿洲高，较高层则反之，转变发生在1300m。低层绿洲风盛行，随高度增加，辐散风渐弱；750hPa以上转为以背景风为主，存在向绿洲中心辐合的趋势；距平风场低层为辐散风，高层为辐合风，绿洲中部风速较小，越远离风场辐散（辐合）中心，风速越大；沙漠上为上升气流，绿洲基本上全为下沉运动所控制，但剖面图上显示绿洲上并不是只有一个闭合中心，且绿洲上、下沉运动的顶部高度也不一致，绿洲中心最低，两侧逐渐增高。最大下沉运动出现在绿洲边缘；绿洲低层分布着强度均匀的辐散区，而沙漠上则为零散辐合区，750hPa辐合区开始侵入绿洲，700hPa时绿洲基本为辐合区，绿洲边缘辐合最强，沙漠以辐散为主，分布少许辐合中心。比湿同湿位温具有相似特征，在一定高度以上，在下沉气流的作用和西风背景场的影响下等值线形成低槽形状，低槽中心从高层向低层、由西向东偏移。     

环境场条件对雷暴传播运动影响实例分析

通过对一个明显后向传播雷暴和一个无明显传播特征雷暴的环境场进行对比,分析环境场条件对雷暴传播运动的影响。结果表明：二者高空均受冷涡后部西北气流控制,有中空急流,低层受暖温度脊影响,气温较高,傍晚前后受短波槽影响,在鲁西北地区产生对流天气;后向传播雷暴的环境场水汽条件较好,大气斜压特征明显,近地面层高温高湿,θse锋区位于对流层中层,中层干空气与低层冷空气入侵,二者共同作用是雷暴的产生机制;无明显传播特征雷暴的环境场水汽条件较差,θse锋区位于850 hPa以下,对流层低层干冷空气与暖湿空气交绥是雷暴的产生机制;雷暴易发生在水汽通量散度中心北侧梯度较大的区域,主回波后部大气为不稳定层结且具有辐合中心、相对湿度较大的特征,这是产生新对流单体的关键;若雷暴区有湿平流,雷暴的下游方向有水汽辐合中心,且辐合中心具有斜压特征,有利于雷暴新生,反之,则不利于雷暴新生。     

一次暴雨过程预报的多模式NWP产品与物理参数的综合分析应用

对照常规天气图实况资料,检验几种常用NWP产品对2008年7月5日山东一次强降水过程的形势场预报和降水预报,并对其物理量场进行诊断分析.结果表明,暴雨落区与诸多物理量场的配置紧密相关;暴雨区出现在低层水汽辐合中心移动路径上,位于与水汽通量散度强辐合中心和强上升运动中心接近处;暴雨区移动方向与水汽通量大值中心、△θse(500-850)负值中心长轴方向一致,水汽通量散度低层辐合、高层辐散两者均满足时有利于强降水发生;200 hPa高空辐散的抽吸作用远比仅有低层辐合更有利于上升运动发展;地面强降水区出现在200 hPa强辐散中心所在处.     

2015年12月新疆极端暴雪天气过程分析*

2015年12月10-12日新疆大面积暴雪是欧洲脊发展衰退、乌拉尔低槽东移南下环流形势下的极端强天气过程,环流形势、高低空系统配置与新疆强降水研究成果[1-3]吻合,高低空三支急流是大尺度上升运动维持和水汽输送、辐合的重要系统。暴雪过程中存在3条水汽输送路径,水汽长时间向暴雪区输送且输送厚度较厚,水汽辐合从低层发展、东移时层次抬升强度增强,水汽输送和辐合主要出现在低层700-850hPa,当水汽输送层和辐合层降低、强度减弱后最强降水开始。天山地形强迫抬升作用明显,低层水汽在天山北坡聚集抬升,低层冷垫有利于中层西南暖湿气流向北输送。环流经向度大和槽前偏南风强、天山地形的强迫抬升和上升运动维持以及水汽持续输送和3条中尺度云带的持续影响是此次新疆极端暴雪形成的重要机制。     

华南锋面和季风降水环流特征及加热结构对比分析

选取华南2017年5月15日两段不同系统影响的典型个例降水,基于ERA Interim分析资料和地面、雷达等观测资料,从两类降水的大尺度环境及中尺度特征方面探讨了两类降水系统的差异,并利用模式潜热廓线订正方案对两类降水个例的潜热进行反演。结果表明,季风降水主要受偏南风影响,边界层内强辐合、高温高湿,中高层（600~150 hPa）较强辐散,而锋面降水受低层锋面系统影响,对流层低层强辐合,800~300 hPa较强辐散,水汽输送深厚,斜压性结构明显,且垂直运动剧烈。除两者的辐合辐散中心、正涡度的中心以及水汽通量辐合中心和垂直运动大值中心所在的层次明显不同外,其强度也差别较明显,就垂直运动而言,锋面降水的最大值达-1.2 hPa/s,远远大于季风降水（-0.2 Pa/s）。两者的中尺度特征和加热结构也存在显著差异,季风降水中尺度雨团沿海岸线自西向东移动发展,潜热加热中心为单峰值,位于5~6 km;锋面降水中尺度雨团在一条西南-东北走向的雨带上不断向东南方向合并发展,潜热加热中心有两个,分别位于1~2 km和6~7 km。      

地形高度对暴雨过程的热力和水汽条件影响数值模拟试验

利用NCEP再分析资料和WRF模式,对2014年8月31日重庆市云阳县特大暴雨进行形势分析和数值模拟,针对重庆地区地形设计了三组地形敏感性试验,分析地形改变对暴雨过程热力条件和水汽条件的影响。结果表明:低纬地区不稳定能量大量积聚并向北传播,在地形和急流的垂直扰动触发下,对流强烈发展;850 h Pa低空急流将来自南海的水汽输送至重庆地区,水汽低层辐合、高层辐散形成的抽吸作用引发水汽的垂直输送。大巴山高度降低后,不稳定厚度减小导致对流强度明显降低;阻挡作用降低不利于水汽在暴雨区的汇聚;水汽辐合、辐散的强度降低导致水汽的垂直输送强度明显减弱。齐岳山高度降低后,低空急流所引起的垂直扰动位置偏南导致高能舌和对流活动位置偏南;水汽输送中心南压,水汽通道变宽导致暴雨区上空水汽输送减弱;低空急流位置偏南导致其所引起的水汽辐合时间偏晚。     

“尼伯特”台风暴雨过程中温州北部和南部降水差异的成因分析

利用温州地面自动气象站资料和日本0.5°×0.5°分析资料,对2016年7月8—9日"尼伯特"台风暴雨过程中温州北部与南部降水差异的成因进行分析。结果表明:1)北部东南气流较弱,降水小;南部受东南低空急流影响时间较长,有利于产生强降水。2)北部水汽辐合弱,提供的水汽有限;南部水汽辐合强,提供的水汽充足。3)南部的SWEAT指数高于北部,强降水的不稳定条件优于北部。4)北部低层辐合弱,高层辐散弱,低层非地转湿Q矢量辐合小,上升运动弱,降水也弱;南部低层辐合强,中低层和高层辐散强,低层非地转湿Q矢量辐合大,上升运动强,有利于产生强降水。     

2013年6月23日江淮地区梅雨锋暴雨的发展和维持机制

利用WRF模式对2013年6月23日江淮地区的梅雨锋暴雨过程进行了数值模拟,并利用模式输出的细网格资料进行诊断分析。结果表明：地面梅雨锋、高低空急流耦合、低层辐合高层辐散以及中层短波槽的配置有利于暴雨的发生发展;暴雨主要由两个中尺度对流系统的发展、维持、合并造成;低层辐合、高层辐散为暴雨提供了动力条件;高温高湿环境为暴雨提供水汽及热力条件。水汽及凝结潜热的诊断分析表明,高空槽的抽吸作用与潜热反馈的配合表现为两个方面,一是向中层输送水汽,使最大凝结发生在中层,加强低层的正涡度中心,二是向高层输送源源不断的热量,避免凝结潜热在中层堆积,有利于不稳定形势和上升运动的维持,从而影响中尺度对流系统的移动和发展。     

冬季登陆我国的0428和7427号台风过程的冷空气作用和水汽特征

应用NCEP/NCAR再分析资料,对冬季登陆我国的0428和7427号台风过程的冷空气作用和水汽特征进行了研究,结果表明：在初冬季节,东亚大槽引导的冷空气可以到达热带洋面的台风外围;台风与出海高压相向而行, 外围气压梯度增强对台风强度的加强和维持起作用;弱冷空气在低层侵入仍在温暖海面上的台风,气旋扰动加强使台风加强;当强冷空气侵入台风中心中层时会破坏其暖心结构,使其填塞消亡。台风生成于水汽通量辐合带内,其生成和发展引起水汽汇合的扰动,加强水汽的辐合,使水汽辐合带加强;一旦台风脱离水汽辐合带后,不能继续获取大量水汽,则会逐渐减弱消亡;冬季台风过程没有强的水汽输送带。     

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.
