A composite analysis of Northern Hemisphere’s mid-winter tropospheric anomalies under the conditions of strong and weak stratospheric polar vortex was performed on NCEP/NCAR reanalysis data from 1948 to 2013 considering, as additional grouping criteria, the coincidental states of major seasonally relevant climate phenomena, such as El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), Quasi Biennial Oscillation and strong volcanic eruptions. The analysis reveals that samples of strong polar vortex nearly exclusively occur during cold ENSO states, while a weak polar vortex is observed for both cold and warm ENSO. The strongest tropospheric and near-surface anomalies are found for warm ENSO and weak polar vortex conditions, suggesting that internal tropospheric circulation anomalies related to warm ENSO constructively superpose on dynamical effects from the stratosphere. Additionally, substantial differences are found between the continental winter warming patterns under strong polar vortex conditions in volcanically-disturbed and volcanically-undisturbed winters. However, the small-size samples obtained from the multi-compositing prevent conclusive statements about typical patterns, dominating effects and mechanisms of stratosphere-troposphere interaction on the seasonal time scale based on observational/reanalysis data alone. Hence, our analysis demonstrates that patterns derived from observational/reanalysis time series need to be taken with caution as they not always provide sufficiently robust constraints to the inferred mechanisms implicated with stratospheric polar vortex variability and its tropospheric and near-surface signature. Notwithstanding this argument, we propose a limited set of mechanisms that together may explain a relevant part of observed climate variability. These may serve to define future numerical model experiments minimizing the sample biases and, thus, improving process understanding. 相似文献

Analyses of proxy based reconstructions of surface temperatures during the past 330 years show the existence of a distinct
oscillatory mode of variability with an approximate time scale of 70 years. This variability is also seen in instrumental
records, although the oscillatory nature of the variability is difficult to assess due to the short length of the instrumental
record. The spatial pattern of this variability is hemispheric or perhaps even global in scale, but with particular emphasis
on the Atlantic region. Independent analyses of multicentury integrations of two versions of the GFDL coupled atmosphere-ocean
model also show the existence of distinct multidecadal variability in the North Atlantic region which resembles the observed
pattern. The model variability involves fluctuations in the intensity of the thermohaline circulation in the North Atlantic.
It is our intent here to provide a direct comparison of the observed variability to that simulated in a coupled ocean-atmosphere
model, making use of both existing instrumental analyses and newly available proxy based multi-century surface temperature
estimates. The analyses demonstrate a substantial agreement between the simulated and observed patterns of multidecadal variability
in sea surface temperature (SST) over the North Atlantic. There is much less agreement between the model and observations
for sea level pressure. Seasonal analyses of the variability demonstrate that for both the model and observations SST appears
to be the primary carrier of the multidecadal signal.

Interannual variability of the winter stratospheric polar vortex in the Northern Hemisphere and their relations to QBO and ENSO 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We investigated the interannual variations of the winter stratospheric polar vortex in this paper.
EOF analysis shows that two modes of variability dominate the stratospheric polar vortex on interannual
timescales. The leading mode (EOF1) reflects the intensity variation of the polar vortex and is characterized
by a geopotential height seesaw between the polar region and the mid-latitudes. The second one (EOF2) exhibits
variation in the zonal asymmetric part of the polar vortex, which mainly describes the stationary planetary
wave activity. As the strongest interannual variation signal in the atmosphere, the QBO has been shown to
influence mainly the strength of the polar vortex. On the other hand, the ENSO cycle, as the strongest
interannual variation signal in the ocean, has been shown to be mainly associated with the variation of
stationary planetary wave activity in the stratosphere. Possible influences of the stratospheric polar
vortex on the tropospheric circulation are also discussed in this paper. 相似文献

Summary The authors perform an exploratory analysis on the effect of the timing of the stratospheric vortex breakup in the occurrence
of cut-off low systems (COLs) in the Northern Hemisphere. The first multidecadal Northern Hemisphere COLs database (Nieto
et al, 2005) covering a 41 year-long period (1958–1998) was used in the analysis. The dates of stratospheric vortex breakup
were obtained using two different approaches recently purposed in literature based in potential vorticity and zonal winds.
An analysis of differences of COLs occurrences for the five earlier (later) breakup years showed that, at latitudes lower
than 45° N, COLs are more frequent for earlier vortex years during the following spring and summer. The monthly analysis showed
that, in general, the significant differences start in May lasting until September, being especially relevant for the European
sector, the area with the highest rates of COLs occurrence in the Northern Hemisphere. 相似文献

本文采用1979—2014年NCEP/NCAR月平均再分析资料、CMAP和GPCP月平均降水资料,分析了北半球平流层极涡崩溃早晚的环流特征及其与南亚降水的关系。结果表明,北半球平流层极涡崩溃时间存在明显的年际变化特征。极涡崩溃偏早(偏晚)年,自3月开始异常信号从平流层向下传播,之后的4月,从平流层到对流层高层极区温度异常偏高(偏低),极涡异常偏弱(偏强),极夜急流异常偏弱(偏强)。结果还表明,5月南亚降水异常与平流层极涡崩溃时间的早晚存在显著相关,5月南亚降水异常与平流层极涡崩溃早晚年平流层异常信号的下传有关。当平流层极涡崩溃偏晚年,4月平流层极区表现为位势高度异常偏低,而中纬度则位势高度场异常偏高,并伴随位势高度异常场的向下传播,5月该位势高度异常场下传至阿拉伯海北部大陆上空对流层顶,形成有利于降水的环流场,导致南亚降水偏多。反之,则相反。 相似文献

利用NCEP/NCAR再分析月平均高度场资料,计算了1948/1949-2009/2010年北半球冬季500~10 hPa的极涡环流指数,包括面积指数S、强度指数P和中心位置指数(λc,φc).分析了北半球冬季极涡在垂直高度上(共12层)的季、月气候态和异常态变化规律.结果表明:极涡面积和强度在不同高度上的大小变化不同,最大值出现的时间也存在差异,二者相关性不好,为两个相对独立的指数.极涡面积和强度的年代际变化趋势在上下层上也不一样,异常变化规律复杂;极涡中心位置上下层变化规律相同,主要在东半球80°N以北范围变化,在极点附近经度变化大,纬度变化小,纬度指数年代际变化明显,近10 a极涡明显偏南.从整体上看,极涡中心位置从500 hPa到10hPa形态上为逆时针、半径越向上越大的旋转变化. 相似文献

平流层极涡振荡与ENSO热带海温异常的时空联系 总被引:3,自引:3,他引:3
利用一个在等熵位涡坐标下建立的平流层极涡振荡(Polar Vortex Oscillation)指数,以及NCEP/NCAR再分析资料和NOAA_OISST_V2逐周海温资料,研究了月尺度以上热带海温异常与平流层极涡振荡的时间和空间联系,通过相关、回归以及合成分析发现,两者的显著联系主要发生在3—5年的年际时间尺度上,表现为ENSO型海温异常与极涡振荡年际趋势之间的时空关联。首先,两者的关系并不表现在同期相关上,而是当ENSO海温异常超前极涡振荡年际异常9—11个月时,两者具有最大的负相关关系。当前期热带海温偏暖(冷)时,9—11个月后极涡振荡的年际趋势为负(正)的异常,即极涡偏弱(强)或负(正)振荡事件为主。统计合成结果进一步证实,前期热带ENSO海温暖事件背景下,后期极涡振荡负事件的发生比正事件更多,强度更强,持续时间也更长,反之亦然;另外,前期热带ENSO暖海温背景下,极涡正、负振荡事件的发生均更频繁。研究连接热带ENSO海温异常与平流层极涡振荡的过程发现,热带海温异常不仅可在热带地区引起大气温度的异常响应,而且可以引发从平流层热带到极区的一系列温度异常同时向下和向极区的传播过程,并与9—11个月以后发生在极区的极涡振荡异常相联系。表明与热带海温异常相联系的极涡振荡年际异常,可能存在与季节尺度极涡振荡中类似的全球质量环流的异常变化。 相似文献

Observational evidence of the delayed response of stratospheric polar vortex variability to ENSO SST anomalies 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The temporal and spatial relationship between ENSO and the extratropical stratospheric variability in the Northern Hemisphere is examined. In general, there exists a negative correlation between ENSO and the strength of the polar vortex, but the maximum correlation is found in the next winter season after the mature phase of ENSO event, rather than in the concurrent winter. Specifically, the stratospheric polar vortex tends to be anomalously warmer and weaker in both the concurrent and the next winter season following a warm ENSO event, and vice versa. However, the polar anomalies in the next winter are much stronger and with a deeper vertical structure than that in the concurrent winter. Our analysis also shows that, the delayed stratospheric response to ENSO is characterized with poleward and downward propagation of temperature anomalies, suggesting an ENSO-induced interannual variability of the global mass circulation in the stratosphere. Particularly, in response to the growing of a warm ENSO event, there exist warm temperature and positive isentropic mass anomalies in the midlatitude stratosphere since the preceding summer. The presence of an anomalous wavenumber-1 in the concurrent winter, associated with an anomalous Aleutian high, results in a poleward extension of warm anomalies into the polar region, and thus a weaker stratospheric polar vortex. However, the midlatitude warm temperature and positive isentropic mass anomalies persist throughout the concurrent winter till the end of the next summer. In comparison with the concurrent winter, the strengthening of poleward heat transport by an anomalous wavenumber-2 in the next winter results in a much warmer and weaker polar vortex accompanied with a colder midlatitude stratosphere. 相似文献

The stratospheric ozone layer protects life on earth by preventing solar ultraviolet radiation from reaching the surface. Owing to the large population in the Northern Hemisphere and extreme ozone loss in the Arctic, changes in Arctic stratospheric ozone (ASO) and their causes have attracted broad attention recently. Using monthly mean data during the period 1980–2020 from MERRA-2, the relationship between the stratospheric polar vortex (SPV) and ASO, along with the relative contributions of chemical and dynamic processes associated with the SPV to changes in ASO, were examined in this study. Results showed that the ASO in March has a strong out-of-phase link with the strength of the SPV in March, with no obvious lead–lag correlations, i.e., an increase (decrease) in ASO corresponds to a weakened (strengthened) SPV. Further analysis suggested that the strong out-of-phase link between the SPV and ASO is related to changes in Brewer–Dobson circulation (BDC). Strong SPV events, accompanied by a low temperature condition and weakened upward propagation of planetary waves over the Arctic in the stratosphere, result in weakened BDC. The weakened downwelling at high latitudes tends to transport less ozone-rich air in the upper stratosphere at lower latitudes into the lower stratosphere at high latitudes, facilitating a decrease in ASO. The BDC's vertical velocity plays the dominant role in modulating ASO.摘要利用1980–2020年MERRA-2资料, 分析了平流层极涡 (Stratospheric polar vortex, SPV) 和北极臭氧 (Arctic stratospheric ozone, ASO) 的关系, 评估了与SPV相关的化学, 动力过程在其中的相对作用. 结果表明, 3月份ASO与同期SPV强度反相关最大. SPV-ASO二者反相关与平流层剩余环流 (Brewer-Dobson circulation, BDC) 变化密切相关. 强SPV伴随的北极平流层低温条件和行星波向上传播减弱, 导致BDC减弱, 减弱的BDC下沉支将低纬度平流层上层臭氧含量较低的空气输送到北极平流层低层, 从而导致ASO减少. BDC垂直速度在其中起主导作用. 相似文献

Summary Recent secular variations in the January circumpolar vortex over the Northern Hemisphere are examined by digitizing the latitude at which the 546 dam isoheight at 50 kPa crosses every 10° meridian from 1947–90. A statistically significant expansion of the vortex is detected from 1966–90. Most of the expansion occurred over the North Pacific Ocean in the vicinity of the Aleutian Low and a less dramatic but significant expansion also occurred over eastern Canada and northern New England. The only region where the vortex contracted significantly is over the western United States. The trough in the western Pacific expanded eastward across the International Date Line in the past quarter century and, in conjunction with the observed contraction over the western United States, indicates amplification of 50 kPa standing waves in the Western Hemisphere. This change in circulation regimes could account for the increased frequency of warm air masses and the decreased occurrence of the coldest wintertime air masses in Alaska.With 6 Figures 相似文献

中部型ENSO和平流层准两年振荡对冬季北半球平流层臭氧的联合调制作用 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
利用观测和再分析资料通过合成分析方法,研究了中部型ENSO和平流层准两年振荡(QBO)对冬季北半球平流层臭氧的独立影响和联合调制作用。研究表明,北半球平流层臭氧在中部型厄尔尼诺年增加,而在中部型拉尼娜年减少;准两年振荡东风位相年份,北半球平流层臭氧增加,准两年振荡西风位相结果则相反。相比之下,北半球中、高纬度平流层臭氧异常对准两年振荡活动的响应明显小于其对ENSO活动的响应。进一步研究发现,准两年振荡东风位相会加强中部型厄尔尼诺事件引起的北半球平流层臭氧的增加,而减弱中部型拉尼娜事件造成的平流层臭氧的减少。在准两年振荡西风位相下,中部型厄尔尼诺事件仅导致北半球平流层臭氧含量少量升高,而中部型拉尼娜事件期间臭氧会大幅度减少。因此,准两年振荡东风位相会加强中部型厄尔尼诺事件对北半球平流层臭氧的影响,而减弱中部型拉尼娜事件对北半球平流层臭氧的影响。准两年振荡西风位相会减弱中部型厄尔尼诺而加强中部型拉尼娜事件对北半球平流层臭氧的影响。 相似文献

Nonlinear principal component analysis provides evidence that the Northern Hemisphere extratropical atmosphere supports three
distinct circulation regimes with an average residence time of about 7 days. The role of high- and low-frequency dynamics
is studied and results indicate that they are both involved in the formation, maintenance and decay of the regimes. A global
coupled climate model also supports three distinct circulation regimes with strikingly similar spatial structures, residence
times and linked high- and low-frequency dynamics to those observed. The issue related to how long a data record is required
to properly resolve the regime structures is addressed by exploiting the model output. Regime residence times and spatial
structures are predicted to change over the next century given increasing concentrations of atmospheric greenhouse gases. 相似文献

A previous multiple-AGCM study suggested that Indian Ocean Warming (IOW) tends to warm and weaken the southern polar vortex.Such an impact is robust because of a qualitative consistency among the five AGCMs used.However,a significant difference exists in the modeled strengths,particularly in the stratosphere,with those in three of the AGCMs (CCM3,CAM3,and GFS) being four to five times as strong as those in the two other models (GFDL AM2,ECHAM5).As to which case reflects reality is an important issue not only for quantifying the role of tropical ocean warming in the recent modest recovery of the ozone hole over the Antarctic,but also for projecting its future trend.This issue is addressed in the present study through comparing the models' climatological mean states and intrinsic variability,particularly those influencing tropospheric signals to propagate upward and reach the stratosphere.The results suggest that differences in intrinsic variability of model atmospheres provide implications for the difference.Based on a comparison with observations,it is speculated that the impact in the real world may be closer to the modest one simulated by GFDL AM2 and ECHAM5,rather than the strong one simulated by the three other models (CCM3,CAM3 and GFS).In particular,IOW during the past 50 years may have dynamically induced a 1.0℃ warming in the polar lower stratosphere (~100 hPa),which canceled a fraction of radiative cooling due to ozone depletion. 相似文献
