VARIATION OF PRECIPITATION DURING WINTER AS A CAUSE OF SUSTAINED DROUGHT IN GUANGDONG DURING THE PAST 50 YEARS

The variation characteristics of precipitation during the winter (between October and the following March, to be referred to as just “the winter” hereafter) in Guangdong province during the past 50 years (from 1957 to 2006) and the relationship with Pacific SST are studied using the methods of Empirical Orthogonal Function (EOF) analysis, wavelet analysis, and correlation analysis. The results show that The Guangdong precipitation during the winter exhibits quasi-periodic significant oscillations of 40 years and 2 years; rainfall is less from the end of the 1950s to the start of the 1970s and from the end of the 1990s to the present than from the mid 1970s to the mid 1990s. The frequency of sustained drought is more than sustained flooding during the winter. The Guangdong precipitation during this time period is in significantly positive correlation to the equatorial central and eastern Pacific SST, but in a significantly negative correlation with the western and northern Pacific SST east of the Philippine Sea. 61.5% of the sustained drought occurred in the phase of negative anomalies of the Ni?o3.4 index and 38.5% in the phase of positive ones. A composite analysis of atmospheric circulation is performed for the positive and negative phases of the Ni?o3.4 region associated with the sustained drought. The results showed that a weak polar vortex, a strong trough in Europe and a ridge near Balkhash Lake, active cold air and consistent northerly wind anomalies controlling Guangdong at low levels, an inactive westerly low disturbance in the low-mid latitude of the Asian continent, and a weak southern branch westerly trough, are all mutual causes for the sustained drought.     

墨西哥帽小波变换的影响域和计算方案新探讨

该文分析了Torrence等人研究的墨西哥帽 (Mexican Hat) 小波变换的影响域和高频失真问题并探讨了解决方案。平移点b处、小波尺度为a的墨西哥帽小波函数的有效定义域为[ b-2.12a, b+2.12a], 以墨西哥帽为母函数的小波变换的真正影响域是2.12a, 小波尺度a的最大值应为N/4.24(N为时间序列长度)。提出了充分利用小波函数速降性质和立方样条插值小波系数的新计算方案, 消除了该计算方案产生虚假的显著高频周期振荡问题。利用正弦函数型时间序列小波变换的解析式检验了文中提出的新计算方案的合理性。利用新计算方案对冬季Ni?o3.4指数进行分析, 冬季Ni?o3.4指数的平均整体小波功率谱表明, 存在约12年的年代际变化和准4年的年际变化, 不存在显著的准两年周期振荡。     

Analyses of intraseasonal oscillation characteristics of flood-causing rainstorms in Xijiang River valley during the annually first raining season in the past years

Based on the daily precipitation data of nine stations representing the Xijiang River valley and the National Center for Environmental Prediction/National Center for Atmospheric Research (USA) reanalysis data, this study uses the wavelet analysis and band-pass filter methods to investigate the atmospheric intraseasonal oscillation characteristics of flood-causing rainstorms in the valley during the annually first raining seasons in 1968, 1994, 1998, 2002 and 2005. Results show that the daily precipitation in the valley exhibits significant quasi-biweekly (10 to 20 days) oscillations. The flood-causing rainstorms in the valley were mainly associated with the confluence of low-frequency warm and humid airflow in the lower latitudes and cold and dry airflow in the higher latitudes. The low-frequency vortexes were propagating or in control when this type of rainstorms took place over the valley, being favorable for the convergence of moisture at lower levels and thus vital to the formation of the rainstorms.     

制约乌鲁木齐河源1号冰川消长诸因子初探

本文利用乌鲁木齐河源１号冰川年物质平衡资料和天山大西沟及其周围台站温度与降水，乌鲁木齐地温、地球自转、Ｅｌ Ｎｉｎｏ、天山南北地震等资料，讨论了该冰川物质平衡与诸因子变化的关系；地球自转的减慢、Ｅｌ Ｎｉｎｏ的出现，南天山地震的发生与正的物质平衡相一致，以大西沟站为基点，计算其温度、降水与周围台站的相关系数，发现大西沟与三大盆地的相关性不好，特别是降水表现为负相关，因此不能用盆地测站的资料来推断天     

大气季节内振荡在华南降水预报中的应用

大气季节内振荡(ISO)在天气气候演变中扮演着重要角色,是中期和延伸期预报可预报性来源之一,同时大气ISO的年际变化与区域季节降水量的年际变化密切联系,对短期气候预测有指示意义。对热带大气ISO的年际变化研究做了简要回顾;重点介绍了ISO对华南降水的影响及其业务应用情况,主要包括赤道MJO对华南降水的影响、基于准两周振荡的汛期暴雨过程预报、热带ISO与热带外系统多尺度相互作用对强降水的影响、ISO对季节降水的影响、基于ISO建立的降水延伸期定量预测模型;最后对进一步加强ISO应用研究提出了几点思考。     

强西南季风背景下1311号台风“尤特”的暴雨特征分析

通过对比多年5—9月逐日平均和1311号台风"尤特"登陆期间逐日平均的西南风分量,分析了"尤特"登陆期间的西南季风强度变化特征,同时还分析了"尤特"登陆期间的环流特征和强西南季风背景下暴雨区的水汽条件、热力条件和动力条件。结果表明:(1)此次持续性暴雨过程的逐日西南风分量明显大于多年平均值且维持时间长;(2)"尤特"东南部有低空急流长时间存在,使得水汽源源不断地输入到"尤特"环流中,同时该次过程强降水区域的850 h Pa假相当位温长时间维持在350K以上;(3)此次过程中同一个降水中心在台风外围环流影响和西南季风辐合影响下,其强上升速度区高度明显不同。     

广州春季降水的变化及其前兆信号

广州春季降水存在以准2年为主的年际变化和以30年为主的年代际变化,目前处于年代际尺度上的少雨时段。Nino3区的海温异常是广州春季降水最强的前兆信号,它与广州春季降水的显著正相关在前一年的11月份就已出现,并且一直稳定维持到4月份。前冬Nino3区海温异常对广州春季降水的影响是通过影响春季北太平洋副热带高压和低层风场异常实现的。前冬Nino3区海温正异常时,春季副热带高压偏强、位置偏西,华南处于副高边缘垂直运动的上升区,菲律宾以东的低层反气旋环流增加了向华南的水汽输送,从而使得广州春季降水偏多;前冬Nino3区海温负异常时,副热带高压偏弱、位置偏东,华南地区远离副高、处于垂直运动的下沉区,菲律宾以东低层为气旋环流控制,华南地区盛行偏北气流,不利于水汽的向北输送,从而使得广州春季降水偏少,造成春旱。     

"05.6"广东致洪暴雨过程的500 hPa环流场及低频特征

分析2005年6月15~25日广东出现的连续暴雨过程及结束期的500 hPa候平均环流场,并对4~9月暴雨中心区域的降水低频振荡特征进行了分析。结果表明:连续暴雨期欧亚中高纬度维持稳定的两槽一脊形势;中低纬度非洲与西太平洋副热带高压强大,西太平洋副高西伸到广东沿海,青藏高原为稳定的高压脊,高原下游为西风槽活动区,使冷空气沿着高原频繁扩散南下,并与西太平洋副高边缘的暖湿气流相遇,产生连续的暴雨过程。当巴尔喀什湖-贝加尔湖的高压脊东移而转为宽槽区,青藏高原高压脊减弱消失,高原以东为平直的西风环流,我国东北到日本为高压脊控制时,西北太平洋副热带高压加强北抬,华南降水减弱,连续暴雨过程结束。小波分析表明,连续暴雨期存在准20 d的周期振荡。

初台偏迟台风少 雨量偏多冷得早

1997年我省后汛期天气的主要特点是7～9月雨量偏多其中7月份雨量特多，大部分地区的月雨量为40年来同期降雨量之最。初台偏迟，登陆台风偏少。入侵影响我省的冷空气来得早、频繁，强度强。1后汛期（7～9月）雨量明显偏多7～9月我省降雨量（至9月28日止）东北部与常年同期相比多8～9成；西北部偏多5～9成，局部偏多1倍多；中部偏多2成左右；东南部偏多5成以上，其中海丰偏多2倍多；西南部除雷州半岛外大部偏多1～2成。值得指出的是：今年后汛期降水偏多不是由于台风造成的，7月份降水主要是来自低压槽和西南季风影响，8月份主要由热带风暴和…
