青藏高原闪电活动的时空分布特征

利用卫星上携带的闪电探测仪所获取的8年闪电资料(1995～2002)对青藏高原闪电活动的时空分布以及高原季风期间闪电活动对地面热力学特征的响应进行了研究.结果表明,高原上的平均闪电密度为3fl·a-1·km-2,并在高原中部（32°N, 88°E）出现闪电密度峰值5.1fl·a-1·km-2.闪电活动主要发生在6～8月,并在6月下旬至7月中旬最为活跃.大部分地区的闪电活动日变化峰值出现在14:00～16:00 LT,在中西部的显著高山地区早于这一时刻,而在显著低海拔的塔里木和柴达木盆地晚于这一时刻.夏季季风期间高原上的闪电活动明显依赖于地表的热力学特征,并与地表鲍恩比和感热通量呈明显的线性正相关,相关系数分别为0.7和0.6,鲍恩比有可能作为调整闪电产生效率的量度.     

青藏高原天然气水合物的形成与多年冻土的关系

天然气水合物是一种新型清洁能源,赋存在多年冻土区和海洋沉积物等低温高压环境中。青藏高原多年冻土面积占高原总面积的一半以上,是可能的天然气水合物赋存区。根据青藏高原多年冻土条件和天然气水合物形成的热力学条件,讨论了多年冻土地温梯度、冻土厚度与天然气水合物形成的热力学条件之间的关系和青藏高原存在天然气水合物的可能性。结果表明,青藏高原多年冻土区基本具备形成天然气水合物的热力学条件,最适宜的热力学条件是多年冻土地温梯度接近或略大于多年冻土底板附近融土的地温梯度,且融土地温梯度越小,越容易形成天然气水合物。估算得到天然气水合物最浅的顶界埋深为74m左右,最深的底界埋深达上千米。     

Selected Trace Elements in Snowpack on Urumqi Glacier No. 1, Eastern Tianshan, China: As Yielded by Leaching Treatment Representative of Real-World Environmental Conditions

To investigate the seasonal variability and potential environmental significance of trace elements in mountain glaciers, the surface snow and snow pit samples were collected at Urumqi Glacier No. 1 (43o06'N, 86o49'E, 4 130 m a.s.l.), eastern Tianshan (天山), from September 2002 to September 2003, and analyzed for Li, V, Cr, Mn, Co, Cu, and Ba. The samples were acidified (leached) in a manner intended to reasonably approximate the extent to which the natural hydrologic and weathering cycles would liberate elem...     

Observed Glaciohydrological Changes in China's Typical Monsoonal Temperate Glacier Region since 1980s

Under the background of significant climate warming since the 1980s,the glaciers in China's monsoonal temperate glacier region respond to the warming intensely.Based on the glaciohy-drological observations at some typical glaciers from Mts.Yulong(玉龙) and Gongga(贡嘎) of Heng-duan(横断) Mountains Range in the southeastern Tibetan plateau,the glaciohydrological changes in the temperate glacier region since the 1980s were investigated.First,the glacier terminus exhibited an accelerating retreat.Second,as the glaci...     

Characteristics and Environmental Significance of pH and EC in Summer Rainfall and Shallow Firn Profile at Yulong Snow Mountain,Lijiang City,China

The seasonal and inter-annual variations of pH and EC(electrical conductivity) at Yu-long(玉龙) Snow Mountain,Lijiang(丽江) City,are sensitive to precipitation variations and are important indicators of the atmospheric environment.The pH of summer rainfall at Lijiang City ranges from 6.7 to 7.4,and alkaline mineral salts dominate the variations of rainfall acidity.pH values in theshallow firn profile at Baishui(白水) Glacier No.1 range from 5.6 to 6.3,and EC values from 2.4 to 7.3 μs/cm.The ranges are lower than ...     

雷暴电活动对冰雹增长影响的数值模拟研究

利用三维强风暴动力-电耦合模式,数值模拟了风暴演变过程 中电活动对冰雹增长及地面降雹的影响. 结果指出,带电冰雹与云内强电场作用使地面降雹 量增加约50[HTK]髎[HTSS],雹块直径增大0.7mm,降雹时间滞后约3min. 文中还讨论了强电 场通过对水成物降落速度的调制来影响冰雹微观增长过程,即主要是影响碰并过程和冰雹融 化过程. 电活动使冰雹源、汇总量都减少,但汇总量减少更多,总体效果使冰雹总量增加, 数目减少,冰雹长得更大,更易降落到地面.     

Climatic significance of δ~(18)O records from an 80.36 m ice core in the East Rongbuk Glacier, Mount Qomolangma (Everest)

The δ18O variations in an 80.36 m ice core retrieved in the accumulation zone of the East Rongbuk Glacier, Mount Qomolangma (Everest), is not consistent with changes of air temperature from both southern and northern slopes of Himalayas, as well as these of the temperature anomalies over the Northern Hemisphere. The negative relationship between the δ18O and the net accumulation records of the ice core suggests the "amount effect" of summer precipitation on the δ18O values in the region. Therefore, the δ18O records of the East Rongbuk ice core should be a proxy of Indian Summer Monsoon intensity, which shows lower δ18O values during strong monsoon phases and higher values during weak phases.     

CLIMATE ANOMALY RECORDED IN GULIYA ICE CORE AND ENSO EVENTS

Examination of ENSO events and the accumulated precipitation and δ~(18)O values recorded in theGuliya ice core,China,shows that the relationship between the occurrence of ENSO events and theprecipitation anomaly in Guliya is significant.In the years of El Nino events,the anomalies ofprecipitation and δ~(18)O values in the Guliya ice core were negative anomalies,that is,the ENSO eventsare related to the deficit of precipitation as well as low temperature in the western China.     

Rapid Shrinking of Glaciers in the Middle Qilian Mountain Region of Northwest China during the Last ～50 Years

During the past five decades, fluctuations of glaciers were reconstructed from historical documents, aerial photographs, and remote sensing data. From 1956 to 2003, 910 glaciers investigated had reduced in area by 21.7% of the 1956 value, with a mean reduction for the individual glacier of 0.10 km2. The relative area reductions of small glaciers were usually higher than those of large ones, which exhibited larger absolute loss, indicating that the small glaciers were more sensitive to climate change than la...
