CoLM模式在中国温带混交林和亚热带人工针叶林的水热通量模拟性能评估

利用中国陆地生态系统通量观测研究网络(ChinaFLUX)在长白山温带混交林观测站点和千烟洲亚热带人工针叶林观测站点的强化观测资料,考察了一个较为完善的陆面过程模式(Common LandModel,CoLM)在这两种不同植被类型下垫面的模拟性能,特别是其对潜热通量的模拟。模拟结果与强化观测资料的对比表明,CoLM能较好地模拟出实验站点地表能量平衡的基本特征以及潜热通量的日变化和季节变化。其中长白山站和千烟洲站潜热通量日平均的观测值与模拟值的相关系数分别为0.804和0.692,均通过了0.001的显著性水平检验。总体而言,CoLM在长白山站的模拟效果更好一些,模式对不同植被覆盖类型的土壤—植被—大气间水热传输过程的处理可能是造成差别的原因。     

陆面过程模式CoLM和NCAR_CLM3.0对中国典型森林生态系统陆气相互作用的模拟Ⅰ.不同模式模拟结果的初步分析

量为期1年的日均值的模拟为例,COLM和CLM3.0在长白山观测站模拟值和观测值时间序列的相关系数分别为0.80和0.65,在千烟洲站分别为0.69和0.64,均通过了0.01的信度检验;两个模式对全年平均的模拟与观测日平均值的比值在长白山分别为1.21和0.86,在千烟洲分别为0.83和0.60.研究结果表明,这两个陆面过程模式可以作为研究这两种典型森林生态系统陆气交换的基本工具.同时,对模式模拟性能差异的深入分析将有助于进一步改进陆面模式的参数化过程,为相关研究奠定更坚实的基础.     

三个陆面模式对新疆地区陆面过程模拟的对比研究

利用实测的大气观测数据建立陆面模式驱动场, 分别驱动Biosphere-Atmosphere Transfer Scheme（BATS）, Land Surface Model（LSM）, Common Land Model（CoLM）三个陆面模式, 对新疆地区99个测站的陆面热力过程进行了off-line模拟研究, 对比分析了三个模式模拟结果的异同, 并利用观测的土壤温度检验了各个模式的模拟性能。结果表明： 三个模式对所吸收的太阳辐射、 地表感热通量、 地表潜热通量和Bowen比的模拟结果有明显差别, 其中CoLM模拟的太阳辐射、 感热通量和土壤温度比BATS和LSM大。用观测的土壤温度对三个模式模拟性能的检验表明 BATS模拟的土壤温度最接近观测值, 大约偏低1℃, 而LSM和CoLM的模拟结果偏高, CoLM模拟的年际变化趋势与观测值相关性达到0.877, 高于另外两个模式的模拟; BATS在天山以北模拟值偏低, CoLM在天山以南模拟结果偏高, LSM模拟的区域分布状况与实际观测最一致。这些结果为研究陆面模式在新疆地区的应用提供了一些参考, 对于深入了解新疆地区的陆面过程具有重要意义。     

基于FLUXNET数据集对陆面模式CoLM能量通量的单点评估

模式评估是模式发展中的重要一环。本文利用来自FLUXNET2015数据集的30个站点的涡动相关系统观测数据,重点关注能量通量,对通用陆面模式（Common Land Model version 2014,CoLM2014）在不同典型下垫面的模拟能力进行评估。结果表明,模式总体上能抓住感热、潜热和净辐射通量在日、季节和年平均等不同时间尺度上的变化特征,对感热、潜热和净辐射通量都有较好的模拟能力,净辐射的模拟效果最好,潜热通量次之。季节变化模拟中,感热、潜热通量在夏季不同植被型下站点的空间离散程度大于冬季,不同站点间模拟效果相差较大,净辐射多站点标准差变化幅度要小于感热、潜热,不同站点间模拟效果偏差较小。CoLM在常绿针叶林、稀树林地、草地、农田模拟感热、潜热通量的效果相对较好,在永久湿地、落叶阔叶林下模拟感热通量较差。本研究对CoLM2014在未来的改进和发展中提供了有用的参考。     

不同陆面过程模式对半干旱区通榆站模拟性能的检验与对比

随着全球气候变化和伴随而来的日益严重的干旱化问题,干旱/半干旱地区的陆气相互作用引起了越来越多的重视。利用国际协同强化观测期(CEOP)观测资料对3个不同的陆面过程模式BATS、LSM和CoLM在半干旱区通榆站进行了模拟检验与对比,考察了不同陆面过程模式对半干旱地区的模拟性能。结果表明,3个模式都可以较好地模拟出半干旱地区地气间的能量通量的季节和日变化,但模拟性能存在较大差异。对于地表温度和出射长波辐射的模拟,BATS表现最优;而对于感热和潜热通量的模拟,CoLM和LSM要好于BATS,其中CoLM的表现最好。各模式的模拟性能随着季节不同存在着很大的差异,夏季的模拟要好于冬季,3个模式都不能很好地模拟冬季该地区的潜热通量,说明对半干旱地区冬季地表过程的刻画还有待进一步提高。     

基于陆面模式基准平台ILAMB对陆面模式CoLM的评估

模式评估是模式发展中不可或缺的重要一环。本文利用最新版陆面模式评估软件—ILAMB（International Land Model Benchmarking）对通用陆面模式 (The Common Land Model, CoLM)进行客观评估,并与NCAR陆面模式CLM5(Community Land Model version 5)结果进行比较。作为一个陆面模式评估软件,ILAMB能对参与评估的模式变量自动生成诊断图形并对模式性能进行评分。评估结果表明,CoLM总体性能良好,模拟结果与基准数据较为接近。与CLM5相比,CoLM在总初级生产力及水文方面的表现略微逊色,在辐射方面则表现相当,对部分变量如地表向上长波辐射、地表净辐射等的模拟甚至优于CLM5。通过对比CRUNCEPv7和GSWP3v1两种强迫资料发现,它们在气候平均态上具有一定的差异,模式在GSWP3v1强迫下的表现相对较好。CoLM和CLM5在CRUCNEPv7强迫下模拟的潜热通量在亚马逊平原、亚洲东部和南部地区以及北美东部一带正偏差显著,而在GSWP3v1强迫下的模拟则有明显改善。这两个模式对感热通量的模拟在非洲北部、亚洲中部一带均明显偏高。在辐射方面,CoLM模拟的地表向上短波辐射在全球以偏高为主,这在一定程度上造成了地表净辐射的模拟偏低。各组试验模拟的地表向上长波辐射得分相差不大,但在具体的空间分布上有一定的差别。     

三个陆面过程模式在西北半干旱区的模拟性能对比

利用NOAH(The Community Noah Land Surface Model)、SHAW(Simultaneous Heat and Water)和CLM(Community Land Model)3个不同的陆面过程模式及兰州大学(Semi-Arid Climate Observatory and Laboratory,SACOL)2007年的观测资料,对黄土高原半干旱区的陆面过程进行了模拟研究。通过与观测值间的对比,考察不同陆面过程模式在半干旱区的适用性。研究结果表明:3个模式在半干旱区的模拟性能有较大差异。其中,CLM模式模拟的20 cm以上的浅层土壤温度最优,SHAW模式模拟的深层土壤温度最优;SHAW模式模拟的土壤含水量与观测值最为接近,而NOAH和CLM模式模拟值有较大偏差;3个模式均能较好地模拟地表反射辐射,其中SHAW模式模拟值与观测值的偏差最小;对地表长波辐射的模拟,CLM模式的模拟最优;3个模式均能较好地反映感热、潜热通量的变化趋势,其中CLM模式对感热的模拟性能优于其他两个模式,在有降水发生后的湿润条件下,CLM模式对潜热的模拟性能最优,而无降水的干燥条件下,CLM模式的模拟偏差最大,NOAH模式对冬季潜热的模拟最优。总体而言,CLM模式能够更好地再现半干旱区地气之间的相互作用,但模式对土壤含水量及干燥条件下的潜热通量的模拟较差,模式对半干旱区陆气间的水文过程还有待进一步的研究和改进。     

青藏高原西部冻融期陆面过程的模拟分析

利用CAMP/Tibet中CEOP-EOP3改则站2002年10月—2003年9月的观测资料作为强迫场,运用陆面过程模式CoLM(Common Land Model),对青藏高原西部陆面特征的模拟研究表明,在高原西部地表能量平衡过程中,冬半年,感热通量占主要地位,潜热通量较小;尤其在冻结期,潜热通量几乎等于零。但在高原西部的融冻期,潜热通量有显著变化。在干季向湿季转化时段的5月中下旬,表层土壤由于融冻而引起的频繁水分相变,使得潜热通量随之变化并开始增加,Bowen比由大变小。地表有效通量的变化与降水及土壤表层频繁的冻结—消融相联系。     

陆面过程模式TBLSHAW的设计及其在黄土高原地区的模拟研究

为了改善陆面过程模式在半干旱地区的模拟能力,在SHAW(Simultaneous Heat and Water Model)模式和CoLM(Common Land Surface Model)模式参数化方案基础上,结合黄土高原SACOL站(Semi-Arid Climate and Environment Observatory of Lanzhou University)得到的部分土壤和近地层的研究结果,利用SHAW模式的动力框架,发展了一个新的陆面过程模式TBLSHAW(Two-Big-Leaf-SHAW)。该模式由一层植被、多层土壤和湍流边界层构成。在植被层主要采取双大叶模型计算能量平衡;土壤层利用水热耦合传输模型计算土壤温度和湿度,并包含了冻融、蒸发及降水渗透等物理过程;湍流边界层采取莫宁—奥布霍夫理论计算湍流通量。最后利用SACOL站获取的观测资料,对TBLSHAW模式进行了模拟检验。结果表明,TBLSHAW模式能够合理地模拟半干旱地区各项陆面过程特征的变化趋势;模拟的土壤温度和土壤湿度与观测值的偏差较小,模式效率和相关系数较高;模拟的净短波辐射及向上长波辐射较好;但是模拟的感热通量、潜热通量与观测值偏差较大,这可能与该地区的能量闭合度较低有关,还有待进一步研究。     

城市陆面模式设计及检验

针对城市冠层模式(Urban Canopy Model,UCM)的各种局限性,本文首次提出整体城市陆面模式(Bulk Urbanized Land Surface Model,BULSM)的概念,即在现有先进的陆面模式的基础上直接构建城市陆面模式。本文在通用陆面模式(Common Land Model,CoLM)基础上构建整体城市陆面模式,根据城市的特点对CoLM进行了发展和重新参数化。模式采用高分辨率地表分类数据;改进了模式的地表能量平衡方程与水分平衡方程;对反照率、城市地表粗糙度、城市大气廓线、城市人为热、不透水面水分蒸发及积水深度等进行了重新参数化。模式保留了CoLM在自然下垫面的全部特性,加强了CoLM在城市或人为下垫面的模拟和预报能力。区域验证以及与CoLM对比结果表明整体城市陆面模式模拟结果能够显示出北京城区各参数的空间精细化分布情况,能够反映出地表分类对模拟结果的影响。单站点验证以及与CoLM和高分辨率城市陆面同化系统(u-HRLDAS)对比结果表明整体城市陆面模式地表温度模拟结果与CoLM相比有很大提高;和u-HRLDAS相比大部分站点地表温度模拟结果也有一定的改进。     

基于三种WRF陆面过程方案的东南亚毁林增温响应研究

选取东南亚中南半岛地区作为模拟区域,基于高分辨率的遥感观测森林变化数据和WRF数值模式,设计毁林前后的两种情景对旱季气候进行模拟,评估NoahMP、CLM和Noah mosaic三种陆面过程方案对热带毁林增温响应的模拟能力。结果表明,CLM方案在模拟历史气温中有着更好的表现,Noah mosaic方案的结果存在明显低估。然而,对比毁林前后两种情景的模拟结果,本文发现,只有采用了"次格网"方式的Noah mosaic方案较好地模拟出毁林增温响应特征。在格网尺度采用"主导类型"计算方式的NoahMP方案没有合理地呈现出森林损失对区域气候的影响。理论上,CLM模式在计算中同时考虑格网内所有植被类型,然而本文发现CLM方案在主导类型不变的格网对森林损失比例不敏感,而且对毁林反馈的模拟结果与NoahMP方案的结果更接近。据此推测,在WRF模式耦合CLM方案的过程中,格网内参数处理方式可能产生了错误,实际采用的是"主导类型"方式。在模拟土地覆盖类型变化对气候的影响时,本文推荐使用Noah mosaic方案。同时,建议在未来版本的WRF模型中修正目前耦合的CLM方案关于次格网方法的处理方式,提供更合理的水热通量模拟。     

基于MODIS地表覆盖(LC)的森林火灾识别方法

通过分析MODIS多光谱地表覆盖产品,证明MODIS本身具有精确识别包括5种森林在内的IGBP 17种地表类型的能力,完全可以满足识别森林火灾的实际需要.在此基础上提出基于MODIS地表覆盖的森林火点识别方法,探讨使用MODIS地表覆盖数据识别森林火灾的数据处理操作过程.应用该森林火点识别方法,MODIS实时广播接收站可以建立一套由MODIS火点侦测模块和MODIS森林火点识别模块构成的完全基于自身数据的森林火灾监测系统.5种森林地表整体平均识别误差为3.5%,可以满足卫星遥感森林火灾监测系统要求.     

Modeling land use and cover as part of global environmental change

Land use and cover changes are important elements of the larger problem of global environmental change. Landuse patterns result in landcover changes that cumulatively affect the global biosphere and climate. We describe efforts to analyze the driving forces behind land transformations and to create land use models that can be linked to other types of global change models. Two efforts to model land use in the U.S. are reviewed. One projects aggregate agricultural, forest, and range land, and the other attempts to model forest land use change at the parcel scale in two mountain landscapes. We conclude with suggestions for new approaches that could clarify the role of land use/cover change in global change and in natural resources management.     

RegCM3.0与RegCM4.0对中国区域多雨年夏季气候模拟的对比分析

采用RegCM3.0和RegCM4.0模式,利用NCEP/DOE Reanalysis II数据、NOAA的周平均海温资料以及BATS、CLM3.5两种陆面过程方案,对我国4个典型多雨年(1998、2003、2007、2010年)的夏季气候进行模拟试验。结果表明,RegCM4-BATS1e模拟的降水量和雨带位置都与观测事实更为接近,尤其是对东南沿海地区强降水带的模拟,模式两个版本对湿润区的降水模拟均偏少,对干旱半干旱、湿润半湿润区的降水模拟则偏多;对于气温的模拟,其模拟结果均存在负偏差,但都能够模拟出位于东南沿海及新疆沙漠地带的温度高值区,RegCM4-CLM3.5模拟温度的量值更准确,而RegCM4-BATS1e模拟的温度空间分布型态与实际最为接近。     

Effects of Crop Growth and Development on Land Surface Fluxes

In this study, the Crop Estimation through Resource and Environment Synthesis model (CERES3.0) was coupled into the Biosphere-Atmosphere Transfer Scheme (BATS), which is called BATS CERES, to represent interactions between the land surface and crop growth processes. The effects of crop growth and development on land surface processes were then studied based on numerical simulations using the land surface models. Six sensitivity experiments by BATS show that the land surface fluxes underwent substantial changes when the leaf area index was changed from 0 to 6 m2 m-2. Numerical experiments for Yucheng and Taoyuan stations reveal that the coupled model could capture not only the responses of crop growth and development to environmental conditions, but also the feedbacks to land surface processes. For quantitative evaluation of the effects of crop growth and development on surface fluxes in China, two numerical experiments were conducted over continental China: one by BATS CERES and one by the original BATS. Comparison of the two runs shows decreases of leaf area index and fractional vegetation cover when incorporating dynamic crops in land surface simulation, which lead to less canopy interception, vegetation transpiration, total evapotranspiration, top soil moisture, and more soil evaporation, surface runoff, and root zone soil moisture. These changes are accompanied by decreasing latent heat flux and increasing sensible heat flux in the cropland region. In addition, the comparison between the simulations and observations proved that incorporating the crop growth and development process into the land surface model could reduce the systematic biases of the simulated leaf area index and top soil moisture, hence improve the simulation of land surface fluxes.     

Illicit Drivers of Land Use Change: Narcotrafficking and Forest Loss in Central America

Illegal activity, such as deforestation for illicit crops for cocaine production, has been inferred as a cause of land change. Nonetheless, illicit activity is often overlooked or difficult to incorporate into causal inference models of land change. Evidence continues to build that narcotrafficking plays an important, yet often unreported, role in forest loss. This study presents a novel strategy to meet the challenge of estimating the causal effect of illicit activity in land change using consolidated news media reports to estimate the relationship between drug trafficking and accelerated forest loss in Central America. Drug trafficking organizations engage in illegal land transactions, money laundering, and territorial control that can manifest as forest conversion to agriculture or pasture land uses. Longitudinal data on 50 sub-national units over a period of 16 years (2001-2016) are used in fixed effects regressions to estimate the role of narcotrafficking in forest loss. Two narcotrafficking activity proxies were developed as explanatory variables of forest loss: i) an “official” proxy from drug seizures data within 14 sub-national units; and, ii) an “unofficial” proxy developed from georeferenced news media accounts of narcotrafficking events. The effect of narcotrafficking was systematically compared to the other well-known causes of forest loss, such as rural population growth and other conventional drivers. Both proxies indicate narcotrafficking is a statistically significant (p<0.01) contributor to forest loss in the region, particularly in Nicaragua (p<0.05, official proxy), Honduras (p<0.05, media proxy), and Guatemala (p<0.05, media proxy). Narcotrafficking variables explain an additional 5% (media proxy) and 9% (official proxy) of variance of forest loss not captured by conventional models. This study showed the ability of news media data to capture the signal of illicit activity in land use changes such as forest loss. The methods employed here could be used to estimate the causal effect of illicit activities in other land and environmental systems. Our results suggest that current drug policy, which concentrates drug trafficking in remote areas of very high cultural and environmental value, has helped to accelerate the loss of Central America's remaining forests.

Performance of the WRF model to simulate the seasonal and interannual variability of hydrometeorological variables in East Africa: a case study for the Tana River basin in Kenya

This study investigates the ability of the regional climate model Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) in simulating the seasonal and interannual variability of hydrometeorological variables in the Tana River basin (TRB) in Kenya, East Africa. The impact of two different land use classifications, i.e., the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) and the US Geological Survey (USGS) at two horizontal resolutions (50 and 25 km) is investigated. Simulated precipitation and temperature for the period 2011–2014 are compared with Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM), Climate Research Unit (CRU), and station data. The ability of Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) and Climate Research Unit (CRU) data in reproducing in situ observation in the TRB is analyzed. All considered WRF simulations capture well the annual as well as the interannual and spatial distribution of precipitation in the TRB according to station data and the TRMM estimates. Our results demonstrate that the increase of horizontal resolution from 50 to 25 km, together with the use of the MODIS land use classification, significantly improves the precipitation results. In the case of temperature, spatial patterns and seasonal cycle are well reproduced, although there is a systematic cold bias with respect to both station and CRU data. Our results contribute to the identification of suitable and regionally adapted regional climate models (RCMs) for East Africa.

     

A New Approach for Parameter Optimization in Land Surface Model

In this study,a new parameter optimization method was used to investigate the expansion of conditional nonlinear optimal perturbation (CNOP) in a land surface model (LSM) using long-term enhanced field observations at Tongyu station in Jilin Province,China,combined with a sophisticated LSM (common land model,CoLM).Tongyu station is a reference site of the international Coordinated Energy and Water Cycle Observations Project (CEOP) that has studied semiarid regions that have undergone desertification,salination,and degradation since late 1960s.In this study,three key land-surface parameters,namely,soil color,proportion of sand or clay in soil,and leaf-area index were chosen as parameters to be optimized.Our study comprised three experiments:First,a single-parameter optimization was performed,while the second and third experiments performed triple-and six-parameter optimizations,respectively.Notable improvements in simulating sensible heat flux (SH),latent heat flux (LH),soil temperature (TS),and moisture (MS) at shallow layers were achieved using the optimized parameters.The multiple-parameter optimization experiments performed better than the single-parameter experminent.All results demonstrate that the CNOP method can be used to optimize expanded parameters in an LSM.Moreover,clear mathematical meaning,simple design structure,and rapid computability give this method great potential for further application to parameter optimization in LSMs.     

珠海凤凰山陆气相互作用与碳通量观测塔的基本观测及晴天主要观测量的日变化特征

珠海凤凰山地处北回归线以南,森林植被覆盖率达90%,植被类型为南亚热带常绿阔叶林群落,是岭南地区典型的城市或村庄周边的再生森林,我们选择在凤凰山麓森林冠层较为平缓的低矮坡地建立了陆-气相互作用和碳通量的观测铁塔塔站。本文详细介绍了观测塔的地理环境、初步的仪器布设和基本观测,并利用已获得的资料分析了旱季典型晴天主要观测量的日变化特征。太阳总辐射及其分光辐射和反射辐射的日变化都是比较常规的中午最高的对称结构;冠层接收到的长波辐射比向上长波辐射低;气温日变化的峰值比太阳辐射滞后,白天达到最高值前的气温是低层高于高层,达到最高值后到落日前气温陡然下降,夜晚的气温是低层低于高层。相对湿度凌晨最大,下午最小,夜晚是低层相对偏湿,白天正好相反;11月份,珠海地区盛行旱季的偏北季风,有明显的海陆风的作用,白天的海风较强,夜晚的陆风较弱;森林冠层向大气释放的感热和潜热的量值基本相当,潜热基本为正;感热白天为正,夜晚基本为负;森林冠层吸收的二氧化碳的最高值出现在午后,此时空气中水汽浓度达到最低,向大气释放的二氧化碳在日出后的清晨最大,此时空气中的二氧化碳浓度达到最大,同时空气密度也最大;由于森林冠层高、密度大,土壤湿度基本没有日变化;表层土壤温度日变化的振幅随土壤深度加深而变小,土壤热流的变化是下午高,清晨低。本文还发现了一些值得深入探讨的现象,需要以后根据充沛的资料分析论证。
