基于EMD 和集合预报技术的气候预测方法

气候系统是典型的非平稳性系统,然而对于气候观测数据的处理通常是在时间序列平稳的假定下完成的,比如气温和降水的多步预报,这通常会导致预报准确度较低。为改进该缺陷,首先将非平稳数据序列分解成平稳的、多尺度特征的本征模态函数分量(IMF),再使用数值集合预报与逐步回归分析相结合的方式对每一个IMF 分量构建不同的预报模型,最后线性拟合成预报结果。通过Visual Studio 2008 开发平台使用上述方法建立了一个短期气候预报系统,采用广西区88 个气象站1957—2005 年的2 月距平气温数据进行实际验证。结果表明,相对于普通预测和单一预测方法,加入了EMD 和集合预报技术的方法在仅用历史资料进行多步预测的情况下,对于气候的变化趋势以及突发性气候具有更好的预报能力。      

EMD在广西季节降水预报中的应用

气候系统是一种耗散的、具有多个不稳定源的非线性、非平稳系统。该文利用支持向量机(SVM)算法在处理非线性问题中的优越性和经验模态分解(EMD)算法在处理非平稳信号中的优势,采用将EMD与SVM相结合的短期气候预测方法,并应用到广西季节降水预报中。选取广西88个气象观测站1957—2005年6—8月逐年降水量的距平百分率序列作为试验数据,通过EMD算法将标准化处理后的距平百分率序列分解成多个本征模态函数(IMF)分量和一个趋势分量,在分解中针对EMD算法存在的端点极值问题选择两种方法分别进行处理,对比得出极值延拓法效果更好。对每个分量构建不同的SVM模型进行预测,并通过重构形成最后的预测结果。试验中采用不经EMD处理的反向传播(BP)神经网络和SVM算法进行对比验证,结果表明:相对于直接预测方法,该文提出的方案均方误差最小,能够较为准确地反映出降水序列未来几年的变化趋势,具有更高的预测精度和较好的推广前景。     

基于改进EMD算法和BP神经网络的SST预测研究

海洋表面温度(Sea Surface Temperature,SST)具有非平稳、非线性的特征,直接将处理平稳数据序列的方法应用到非平稳非线性特征明显的序列上显然是不合适的,预测的误差将会很大。为了提高预测精度,更好地解决非平稳非线性序列预测的问题,本文以东北部太平洋(40°N~50°N、150°W~135°W)区域的月平均海洋表面距平温度为例,首先分别应用集合经验模态分解(EEMD)和互补集合经验模态分解(CEEMD)方法将SST分解为不同尺度的一系列模态分量(IMF),再运用BP(Back Propagation)神经网络模型对每一个模态分量进行分析预测,最后将各IMF预测结果进行重构得到SST的预测值。数值试验的结果表明,CEEMD分解精度比EEMD分解精度高,CEEMD提高了基于BP神经网络的预测精度。系列试验统计分析说明应用这种方法对SST的1年预测是有效的。     

气候系统的非平稳行为和预测理论

到目前为止,有关非平稳复杂系统及其在气候预测中的应用研究(它有着比混沌系统更为复杂的行为)是一个较少被人理解并有重大科学意义的前瞻性研究课题。在大气运动中,气候正是一个典型的非平稳系统,但是现有的气候预测理论,包括统计预测理论和非线性预测理论,几乎都无一例外地建立在平稳性假定的基础之上,这有悖于气候过程的基本性质,因此它有可能是导致气候预测水平低下的重要的理论原因。另外,近10年来,气候过程具有层次结构已经成为许多科学家的共识,但是如何发展和完善这一理论,使之成为一个完整的体系,人们似乎还没找到合适的途径。事实上,气候系统的多层次结构(它与通常的多尺度结构是两个完全不同的概念)正是产生非平稳行为的原因,而气候系统的非平稳特性正是层次结构的集中表现。在这样的思想指导下,文中系统地讨论了非平稳气候的一些基本问题和相应的预测理论,并为之搭起了一个初步的理论框架。     

基于集合经验模态分解和傅里叶分析的风场预测试验

采用集合经验模态分解(EEMD)和滑动傅里叶分析方法,建立了非线性气候序列的统计预测模型。针对气候要素距平场,对EOF分解得到的各模态时间系数进行EEMD分解,对得到的各IMF分量构建滑动傅里叶(Fourier)分析预报模型,提取出控制当前复杂气候信号的主要傅里叶频谱组合作为IMF分量的主要成分,即确定当前信号的主要波内频率,再将各个IMF分量和剩余项预测结果重构得到各模态时间序列的预测结果,最终通过时空重构得到预测场。将上述思想方法应用于新疆地区风场的预测试验,并采用距平相关系数(ACC),预报技巧(SS)和同号率(R)进行评估,结果表明对于区域性的风速预报,基于上述思想的算法模型能够较好地把握当前气候信号的主要变化频率,较为理想地预测了气候要素时间系数,对新疆地区风速变化的形态分布有较好的估计,使其预报时效在40侯以内均拥有一定的预报技巧,平均SS在0.5以上,36侯以内平均ACC达到0.4以上。     

基于EEMD的黄河中上游夏季降水预报方法的研究

传统的统计方法难以很好的对气候系统这一集非线性、非平稳性为一身的多层次系统进行处理。因此集层次化处理和平稳化处理的集合正交经验模态分解技术(EEMD)的提出,为解决上述问题提供了有效的途径。本文选取黄河中上游24个气象观测站的逐月降水资料,结合组合预报和集合预报思路,基于EEMD建立了统计预报模型。其中对降水序列中的高频部分进行了二次平稳化处理,实现对2008—2013年6—8月的降水预报,并用预报评分检测预报效果。结果表明:EEMD模型对黄河中上游夏季降水有着较强的预报能力,在该区域与气候模式和传统的统计方法相比具有更高的精度和更好的应用前景。     

基于深度学习的全球平均表面温度年际信号时间序列的预测北大核心CSCD

利用集合经验模态分解(Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition,EEMD)有效地分解了全球平均表面温度(Global Mean Surface Temperature,GMST)时间序列,得到其不同尺度的、不同特征的子序列(Intrinsic Mode Function,IMF)。在此基础上,利用在预测长期、复杂、非线性变化的时间序列上具有显著优势的滑动自回归机器学习(Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average,ARIMA)模型和长短期记忆网络(Long Short-Term Memory,LSTM)模型开展GMST年际信号预测研究。结果表明:深度学习模型LSTM能很好地拟合并预测了长程相关性强的子序列(第2~6个IMF),而代表GMST年际尺度变化的IMF1则在一定程度上受到太平洋大西洋多重气候信号的影响和调制,因此进一步将3个气候指数作为预报前兆因子加入预测模型来更准确地预测IMF1的时间演变。通过利用多套GMST数据的对比,最终选定了考虑实时ENSO信息的LSTM(ENSO)模型来提前预测年际GMST信号,并预测2020年将有较大概率会成为史上最热的年份之一。

波流相互作用的大气系统中振荡模态的分析

把经验模态分解(EMD)方法用于波流相互作用的大气动力系统,对不同系统状态的流甬数解序列求其本征模态函数(IMF)分量,分析系统状态与IMF之间的关系,揭示流甬数的振荡结构.结果表明:随着系统的复杂性增大,构成解序列的IMF分量的个数相应增多.对于系统的定常态(Hadley流),每个流函数ψ分量的各个IMF分量都趋于零均值线;对于周期态(Rosssby流),ψ分量由1个周期性的高频IMF分量构成;对于振荡态,分量主要由2-3个较高频IMF分量构成;对于非周期流,ψ分量由多个非周期的IMF分量构成;对于周期-非周期状态,其本征模态有的有周期性,有的没有周期性.低频IMF分量表现ψ序列的长时间尺度的变化.     

短期天气预报与短期气候预测发展道路的对比思索

本文简短地比较了100a来短期天气预报和短期气候预测的发展道路。指出短期天气预报在经历了天气图阶段、长波阶段和数值预报阶段三大步之后已经发展到了相当成熟的地步。而短期气候预测100a来在“气候是天气的综合”错误思想的指导下,虽然也经历了与短期天气预报相应的几个阶段：大型天气学阶段、超长波阶段和短期气候预测的数值模式阶段,但每个阶段都以失败(或即将失败)而告终。使得短期气候预测水平始终在原地踏步。30a前提出了“气候系统”的概念,这是气候学的一次真正的进步。但“气候系统”至今仍是一个抽象概念,不像“天气系统”指的是气旋(低压)、反气旋(高压)、锋面等具体的物质系统。一旦“气候系统”被人们公认为一些具体的物质系统之后。短期气候预测即可成为“气候系统变化的预测”,此时短期气候预测通向成功的第一步——气候预测的“挪威学派”就诞生了。与天气图相应的,描述气候系统变化的一种四维图象也会应运而生。作者认为此图象很可能是“地气图”,而具体的气候系统很可能就是地热涡、地冷涡和形变锋等。     

A Climate Prediction Method Based on EMD and Ensemble Prediction Technique

Observed climate data are processed under the assumption that their time series are stationary, as in multi-step temperature and precipitation prediction, which usually leads to low prediction accuracy. If a climate system model is based on a single prediction model, the prediction results contain significant uncertainty. In order to overcome this drawback, this study uses a method that integrates ensemble prediction and a stepwise regression model based on a mean-valued generation function. In addition, it utilizes empirical mode decomposition (EMD), which is a new method of handling time series. First, a non-stationary time series is decomposed into a series of intrinsic mode functions (IMFs), which are stationary and multi-scale. Then, a different prediction model is constructed for each component of the IMF using numerical ensemble prediction combined with stepwise regression analysis. Finally, the results are fit to a linear regression model, and a short-term climate prediction system is established using the Visual Studio development platform. The model is validated using temperature data from February 1957 to 2005 from 88 weather stations in Guangxi, China. The results show that compared to single-model prediction methods, the EMD and ensemble prediction model is more effective for forecasting climate change and abrupt climate shifts when using historical data for multi-step prediction.     

Recent Advances in Predictability Studies in China （1999-2002）

Since the last International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics (IUGG) General Assembly (1999), the predictability studies in China have made further progress during the period of 1999-2002. Firstly, three predictability sub-problems in numerical weather and climate prediction are classified, which are concerned with the maximum predictability time, the maximum prediction error, and the maximum allowable initial error, and then they are reduced into three nonlinear optimization problems. Secondly, the concepts of the nonlinear singular vector (NSV) and conditional nonlinear optimal perturbation (CNOP) are proposed,which have been utilized to study the predictability of numerical weather and climate prediction. The results suggest that the nonlinear characteristics of the motions of atmosphere and oceans can be revealedby NSV and CNOP. Thirdly, attention has also been paid to the relations between the predictability and spatial-temporal scale, and between the model predictability and the machine precision, of which the investigations disclose the importance of the spatial-temporal scale and machine precision in the study of predictability. Also the cell-to-cell mapping is adopted to analyze globally the predictability of climate,which could provide a new subject to the research workers. Furthermore, the predictability of the summer rainfall in China is investigated by using the method of correlation coefficients. The results demonstrate that the predictability of summer rainfall is different in different areas of China. Analysis of variance, which is one of the statistical methods applicable to the study of predictability, is also used to study the potential predictability of monthly mean temperature in China, of which the conclusion is that the monthly mean temperature over China is potentially predictable at a statistical significance level of 0.10. In addition,in the analysis of the predictability of the T106 objective analysis/forecasting field, the variance and the correlation coefficient are calculated to explore the distribution characteristics of the mean-square errors.Finally, the predictability of short-term climate prediction is investigated by using statistical methods or numerical simulation methods. It is demonstrated that the predictability of short-term climate in China depends not only on the region of China being investigated, but also on the time scale and the atmospheric internal dynamical process.

The Prediction of Non-stationary Climate Series Based on Empirical Mode Decomposition

This paper proposes a new approach which we refer to as ``segregated prediction" to predict climate time series which are nonstationary. This approach is based on the empirical mode decomposition method (EMD), which can decompose a time signal into a finite and usually small number of basic oscillatory components. To test the capabilities of this approach, some prediction experiments are carried out for several climate time series. The experimental results show that this approach can decompose the nonstationarity of the climate time series and segregate nonlinear interactions between the different mode components, which thereby is able to improve prediction accuracy of these original climate time series.

Sensitivity studies with the regional climate model REMO

Summary A new regional atmospheric model was set up in a joint effort by DKRZ (Deutsches Klimarechenzentrum), DWD (Deutscher Wetterdienst), GKSS (Forschungszentrum Geesthacht) at the MPI (Max-Planck-Institut fuer Meteorologie). This model, called REMO (REgional MOdel) can be used in the weather forecast mode as well as in the climate mode. It is based on the Europa-Model (EM), the main weather forecast model of the new numerical weather prediction system of the Deutscher Wetterdienst. In addition to the physical parameterizations implemented in the EM, REMO has the possibility of using the same physics as the global climate model (MPI) into which it is nested to assess the scale dependence of physical parameterizations within the same dynamical framework.This paper gives an overview over different case studies investigating the dependence of model results on simulation domain size, horizontal resolution, initial conditions and lateral boundaries especially for long term calculations. A sample of one month long integrations for an arbitrary July month, a four year long run for the Baltic Sea and its drainage basin and two summer seasons of the Indian Monsoon will be used to demonstrate the sensitivity of regional climate model results to different environments.The sensitivity studies show that it is very important to use realistic large scale driving fields at the lateral boundaries. The regional model results are strongly influenced by the driving fields. The domain size and the simulation length are also influencing the results.With 12 Figures
