Traditionally,a delayed(early)onset of the South China Sea summer monsoon(SCSSM)has been observed to follow a warm(cold)El Ni?o-Southern Oscillation(ENSO)event in winter,supporting high seasonal predictability of SCSSM onset.However,the empirical seasonal forecasting skill of the SCSSM onset,solely based on ENSO,has deteriorated since 2010.Meanwhile,unexpected delayed onsets of the SCSSM have also occurred in the past decade.We attribute these changes to the Northwest Indian Ocean(NWIO)warming of the sea surface.The NWIO warming has teleconnections related to(1)suppressing the seasonal convection over the South China Sea,which weakens the impacts of ENSO on SCSSM onset and delays the start of SCSSM,and(2)favoring more high-frequency,propagating moist convective activities,which enhances the uncertainty of the seasonal prediction of SCSSM onset date.Our results yield insight into the predictability of the SCSSM onset under the context of uneven ocean warming operating within the larger-scale background state of global climate change. 相似文献

The role of the Indonesian Throughflow(ITF) in the influence of the Indian Ocean Dipole(IOD) on ENSO is investigated using version 2 of the Parallel Ocean Program(POP2) ocean general circulation model. We demonstrate the results through sensitivity experiments on both positive and negative IOD events from observations and coupled general circulation model simulations. By shutting down the atmospheric bridge while maintaining the tropical oceanic channel, the IOD forcing is shown to influence the ENSO event in the following year, and the role of the ITF is emphasized. During positive IOD events,negative sea surface height anomalies(SSHAs) occur in the eastern Indian Ocean, indicating the existence of upwelling.These upwelling anomalies pass through the Indonesian seas and enter the western tropical Pacific, resulting in cold anomalies there. These cold temperature anomalies further propagate to the eastern equatorial Pacific, and ultimately induce a La Nia-like mode in the following year. In contrast, during negative IOD events, positive SSHAs are established in the eastern Indian Ocean, leading to downwelling anomalies that can also propagate into the subsurface of the western Pacific Ocean and travel further eastward. These downwelling anomalies induce negative ITF transport anomalies, and an El Nio-like mode in the tropical eastern Pacific Ocean that persists into the following year. The effects of negative and positive IOD events on ENSO via the ITF are symmetric. Finally, we also estimate the contribution of IOD forcing in explaining the Pacific variability associated with ENSO via ITF. 相似文献

The relationship between the intensity of the South China Sea summer monsoon (SCSSM) and
the Nino3.4 index and anomalous atmospheric circulation patterns associated with a strong and weak
SCSSM are investigated using the NCEP/NCAR reanalysis data, Extended Reconstructed Sea Surface
Temperature (ERSST) data and Climate Prediction Center Merged Analysis of Precipitation (CMAP) data.
The SCSSM is significantly positively correlated with the Nino3.4 index in the succeeding northern
autumn and winter. In the strong minus weak SCSSM composite, a positive East Asia-Pacific
teleconnection (EAP) pattern and a negative Europe-Asian-Pacific teleconnection (EUP) pattern appear in
the 500 hPa height difference field; low-level cross-equatorial flows are strengthened over the Maritime
Continent (MC) region; positive (negative) precipitation anomalies occur in the South China Sea and
western north Pacific (MC). A possible mechanism through which SCSSM affects ENSO is proposed. A
strong (weak) SCSSM strengthens (weakens) cross-equatorial flows over the MC. The anomalous
cross-equatorial flows cool (warm) the SST around the MC through enhanced (reduced) surface latent heat
fluxes. The cooling (warming) further leads to suppressed (enhanced) convection over the MC, and causes
the anomalous westerly (easterly) in the equatorial western Pacific, which favors the onset of El Ni?o (La
Ni?a) through modulating the positive air-sea feedback process. 相似文献

The El Ni?o-Southern Oscillation(ENSO) is traditionally regarded as the most important factor modulating the interannual variation of the South China Sea summer monsoon(SCSSM) onset. A preceding El Ni?o(La Ni?a) usually tends to be followed by a delayed(an advanced) monsoon onset. However, the close relationship between ENSO and SCSSM onset breaks down after the early-2000 s, making seasonal prediction very difficult in recent years. Three possible perspectives have been proposed to explain the weakening linkage between ENSO and SCSSM onset, including interdecadal change of the ENSO teleconnection(i.e., the Walker circulation), interferences of other interannual variability(i.e., the Victoria mode), and disturbances on intraseasonal time scales(i.e., the quasi-biweekly oscillation). By comparing the epochs of 1979–2001 and 2002–19, it is found that the anomalous tropical Walker circulation generated by ENSO is much weaker in the latter epoch and thus cannot deliver the ENSO signal to the SCSSM onset. Besides, in recent years, the SCSSM onset is more closely linked to extratropical factors like the Victoria mode, and thus its linkage with ENSO becomes weaker. In addition to these interannual variabilities, the intraseasonal oscillations like the quasi-biweekly oscillation can disrupt the slow-varying seasonal march modulated by ENSO. Thus, the amplified quasi-biweekly oscillation may also contribute to the weakening relationship after the early-2000 s. Given the broken relationship between ENSO and SCSSM onset, the extratropical factors should be considered in order to make skillful seasonal predictions of SCSSM onset, and more attention should be paid to the extended-range forecast based on intraseasonal oscillations. 相似文献

One of the fundamental questions concerning the nature and prediction of the oceanic states in the equatorial eastern Pacific is how the turnabout from a cold water state (La Ni?na) to a warm water state (El Ni?no) takes place, and vice versa. Recent studies show that this turnabout is directly linked to the interannual thermocline variations in the tropical Pacific Ocean basin. An index, as an indicator and precursor to describe interannual thermocline variations and the turnabout of oceanic states in our previous paper (Qian and Hu, 2005), is also used in this study. The index, which shows the maximum subsurface temperature anomaly (MSTA), is derived from the monthly 21-year (1980–2000) expendable XBT dataset in the present study. Results show that the MSTA can be used as a precursor for the occurrences of El Ni?no (or La Ni?na) events. The subsequent analyses of the MSTA propagations in the tropical Pacific suggest a one-year potential predictability for El Ni?no and La Ni?na events by identifying ocean temperature anomalies in the thermocline of the western Pacific Ocean. It also suggests that a closed route cycle with the strongest signal propagation is identified only in the tropical North Pacific Ocean. A positive (or negative) MSTA signal may travel from the western equatorial Pacific to the eastern equatorial Pacific with the strongest signal along the equator. This signal turns northward along the tropical eastern boundary of the basin and then moves westward along the north side of off-equator around 16N. Finally, the signal returns toward the equator along the western boundary of the basin. The turnabout time from an El Ni?no event to a La Ni?na event in the eastern equatorial Pacific depends critically on the speed of the signal traveling along the closed route, and it usually needs about 4 years. This finding may help to predict the occurrence of the El Ni?no or La Ni?na event at least one year in advance. 相似文献

In this study, two possible persistent anomalies of the Madden-Julian Oscillation mode (MJO) are found in the summer season (persistently Pacific active and Indian Ocean active), and an index is set to define the intensity of the two modes. They are proved to have high statistical correlations to the later ENSO events in the autumn and winter seasons: When persistent anomaly of MJO happens in the Pacific Ocean in summer, El Ni?o events are often induced during the autumn and winter seasons of that year. However, during the other MJO mode when the summer persistent anomaly of MJO occurs in the Indian Ocean, La Ni?a events often follow instead. The analysis of the atmospheric circulation field indicates that persistent anomaly of MJO can probably affect the entire Equatorial Pacific circulation, and results in wind stress anomalies. The wind stress anomalies could excite warm or cold water masses which propagate eastwards at the subsurface ocean. The accumulation of warm or cold subsurface water in the Equatorial Eastern Pacific Ocean may eventually lead to the formation of an ENSO. 相似文献

Weak ENSO Asymmetry Due to Weak Nonlinear Air–Sea Interaction in CMIP5 Climate Models 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
State-of-the-art climate models have long-standing intrinsic biases that limit their simulation and projection capabilities.Significantly weak ENSO asymmetry and weakly nonlinear air–sea interaction over the tropical Pacific was found in CMIP5(Coupled Model Intercomparison Project, Phase 5) climate models compared with observation. The results suggest that a weak nonlinear air–sea interaction may play a role in the weak ENSO asymmetry. Moreover, a weak nonlinearity in air–sea interaction in the models may be associated with the biases in the mean climate—the cold biases in the equatorial central Pacific. The excessive cold tongue bias pushes the deep convection far west to the western Pacific warm pool region and suppresses its development in the central equatorial Pacific. The deep convection has difficulties in further moving to the eastern equatorial Pacific, especially during extreme El Ni o events, which confines the westerly wind anomaly to the western Pacific. This weakens the eastern Pacific El Ni o events, especially the extreme El Ni o events, and thus leads to the weakened ENSO asymmetry in climate models. An accurate mean state structure(especially a realistic cold tongue and deep convection) is critical to reproducing ENSO events in climate models. Our evaluation also revealed that ENSO statistics in CMIP5 climate models are slightly improved compared with those of CMIP3. The weak ENSO asymmetry in CMIP5 is closer to the observation. It is more evident in CMIP5 that strong ENSO activities are usually accompanied by strong ENSO asymmetry, and the diversity of ENSO amplitude is reduced. 相似文献

Analyzing the anomalous field of SST over the tropical Pacific for two kinds of ENSO events after 1956. we find that in the preceding year before the eastern pattern of El Nino event there is the La Nina event and large negative anomalies of SST in the tropical central and eastern Pacific; the preceding year before the eastern pattern of La Nina event witnesses the prevalence of the El Nino event and large positive anomalies of SST in the same waters: the preceding year before the central patterns of the El Nino (La Nina) events are generally marked by significant positive (negative) SST anomalies in central/western (eastern) tropical Pacific. The fields are just the opposite for two patterns of ENSO events. For waters in the warm pool in the western tropical Pacific, the central (eastern) pattern of El Nino event is with a warm (cool) preceding year of the pool. The warmer conditions in the western Pacific warm pool are a necessity for the occurrence of the central pattern of El Nino event. 相似文献

REGIONAL DIFFERENCES OF TEMPORAL-SPATIAL CHARACTERISTICS OF AIR-SEA INTERACTIONS IN TROPICAL OCEANS 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The singular value decomposition (SVD) of air-sea interaction in the tropical western,central,and eastern Pacific,and the tropical Atlantic and Indian Oceans has been conducted by using theNCEP/NCAR 40-year reanalysis 1000 hPa monthly wind field and COADS monthly sea surfacetemperature (SST).Comparisons of the results suggest that these areas can be divided into threetypes from the viewpoint of air-sea interaction:tropical central-eastern Pacific belongs to monistictype,in which ENSO is the sole important process;tropical western Pacific and Indian Oceansbelong to dualistic type,in which in addition to ENSO.there should be an another importantprocess;tropical Atlantic Ocean belongs to pluralistic type,in which the process is complicatedand the ENSO cycle is not evident. 相似文献

The sea surface temperature(SST) in the Indian Ocean affects the regional climate over the Asian continent mostly through a modulation of the monsoon system.It is still difficult to provide an a priori indication of the seasonal variability over the Indian Ocean.It is widely recognized that the warm and cold events of SST over the tropical Indian Ocean are strongly linked to those of the equatorial eastern Pacific.In this study,a statistical prediction model has been developed to predict the monthly SST over the tropical Indian Ocean.This model is a linear regression model based on the lag relationship between the SST over the tropical Indian Ocean and the Ni o3.4(5°S-5°N,170°W-120°W) SST Index.The predictor(i.e.,Ni o3.4 SST Index) has been operationally predicted by a large size ensemble El Ni o and the Southern Oscillation(ENSO) forecast system with coupled data assimilation(Leefs_CDA),which achieves a high predictive skill of up to a 24-month lead time for the equatorial eastern Pacific SST.As a result,the prediction skill of the present statistical model over the tropical Indian Ocean is better than that of persistence prediction for January 1982 through December 2009. 相似文献

It has been suggested that a warm(cold) ENSO event in winter is mostly followed by a late(early) onset of the South China Sea(SCS) summer monsoon(SCSSM) in spring. Our results show this positive relationship, which is mainly determined by their phase correlation, has been broken under recent rapid global warming since 2011, due to the disturbance of cold tongue(CT) La Ni?a events. Different from its canonical counterpart, a CT La Ni?a event is characterized by surface meridional wind divergences in the central-eastern equatorial Pacific, which can delay the SCSSM onset by enhanced convections in the warming Indian Ocean and the western subtropical Pacific. Owing to the increased Indian-western Pacific warming and the prevalent CT La Ni?a events, empirical seasonal forecasting of SCSSM onset based on ENSO may be challenged in the future. 相似文献

利用热带太平洋地区 2层区域海洋模式和再分析资料探讨了大气 /海洋的季节背景对ENSO时间尺度上海温异常的增幅或减幅作用。结果表明 :不论什么季节背景下 ,就海洋变化而言 ,El Nino/La Nina事件均可存在 ,说明 El Nino/La Nina事件的存在和维持并没有季节性选择 ;模式海洋的西太平洋赤道地区次表层海水温度异常变化位相明显超前于东太平洋SSTA且在空间上自西向东传播 ,同时有位相超前的量还包括模式第 1层厚度异常及热容量异常 ,这些对 ENSO的预测和机制研究具有重要意义。 SSTA的振幅在不同的季节背景下可受到不同的调节。以春季为背景 ,同样的异常风应力作用于海洋 ,可使 NINO3区 SSTA较正常季节背景下该区的 SSTA振幅明显增大 ;而在冬季背景下可使 SSTA受到一定程度的减幅 ,这说明 El Nino/L a Nina现象的发生和消亡有季节选择倾向。与春季背景下 NINO 3区SSTA的增幅倾向相反 ,模式第 1层厚度异常的振幅则受到削弱。而西太平洋赤道地区 ,模式海洋混合层的厚度异常则有所增强。这种与 SSTA增 /减幅反相关的现象需要进一步研究 相似文献

The impacts of diurnal atmosphere–ocean (air–sea) coupling on tropical climate simulations are investigated using the SNU
coupled GCM. To investigate the effect of the atmospheric and oceanic diurnal cycles on a climate simulation, a 1-day air–sea
coupling interval experiment is compared to a 2-h coupling experiment. As previous studies have suggested, cold temperature
biases over equatorial western Pacific regions are significantly reduced when diurnal air–sea coupling strategy is implemented.
This warming is initiated by diurnal rectification and amplified further by the air–sea coupled feedbacks. In addition to
its effect on the mean climatology, the diurnal coupling has also a distinctive impact on the amplitude of the El Nino-Southern
Oscillation (ENSO). It is demonstrated that a weakening of the ENSO magnitude is caused by reduced (increased) surface net
heat fluxes into the ocean during El Nino (La Nina) events. Primarily, decreased (increased) incoming shortwave radiation
during El Nino (La Nina) due to cloud shading is responsible for the net heat fluxes associated with ENSO. 相似文献

利用1955-2000年热带、副热带太平洋地区次表层温度距平资料,构造了温度距平极值深度分布曲面图,它很接近20°温度面的深度分布,因此有理由认为这一深度曲面很接近热带温跃层的深度面。在温度距平极值深度曲面上,分析了20世纪60年代后期以来所有El Nino/La Nina事件正/负海温距平信号的分布和传播“轨迹”,发现如果以暖池次表层作为起点,则一般来说,暖水或冷水先是沿赤道极值深度面向东、向上传播或运动,到达赤道东太平洋海盆边界附近后,在那里停留几个月,然后转北运动,在北纬10度左右再折向西运动到西太平洋转向南返回到暖池,即在赤道北侧形成闭合回路。温度距平运动一圈需时2-4年。如果暖(冷)水的温度距平都很强,就会在2-4年的时间上出现两次相邻的El Nino(La Nina)事件,但可能是由于大气或海洋环境条件不合适,温度距平的强度在运动过程中有时会减弱,就不能形成El Nino(La Nina)事件,但暖(冷)水运动的“轨迹”仍可辨认。由于暖、冷水绕环路的运动交替出现,El Nino(La Nina)爆发前,在赤道西太平洋出现正(负)距平信号的同时,在东太平洋北纬10度左右会有负(正)距平信号出现,并且当正(负)距平信号向东传播时,负(正)距平信号向西传播,在赤道上表现为2-4年间隔的El Nino(La Nina)交 相似文献

热带太平洋年代际平均气候态变化与ENSO循环 总被引:20,自引:0,他引:20
文中用观测的热带太平洋海表温度资料、风应力资料和OLR资料,通过多时间尺度分析,将与ENSO有关的变化分为3个主要的分量,一是2~7a的ENSO循环尺度,二是8~20a的年代际尺度,三是20a以上的平均气候态变化。讨论了热带太平洋这种平均气候态变化的主要特征以及与ENSO循环的关系,并用耦合模式的数值试验来研究平均气候态的变化对ENSO循环的影响。结果表明热带太平洋的平均气候态在20世纪70年代后期发生了一次由冷态向暖态的变化,主要增暖区是沿赤道以及热带东太平洋的,海表温度变化最大中心可以达到0.6℃。伴随着海表温度的变化,赤道西太平洋的西风距平加强,赤道东太平洋的东风距平也加强,在赤道中太平洋形成了一个加强的辐合中心。年代际平均气候冷暖态的变化对ENSO最直接的线性影响是使ElNio位相增加,而形成ENSO冷位相和暖位相的不对称。另一方面较暖的平均气候态可能引起海洋和大气之间的耦合加强,导致ENSO循环振荡有所加强。 相似文献
