STATISTICAL STUDY ON RELATIONSHIP OF EL NIO EVENTS AND THE HYDROGRAPHY ALONG 137 °E IN SUMMER

Principal component analysis (PCA) used by meteorologists and oceanographers is a powerful tool for the analysis of the spatial and temporal variability of physical fields .This study is aimed at applying " quasi-local PCA for singular factor " to make the cumulative percentage for the first principal component as great as possible , so that the many-dimension problem can be reduced to a single-dimension one , and at combining PCA with stepwise regression analysis to parameterize the relationship between El Nino events and the anomalies in hydrographic factors along 137°E in summer.The results show that the hydrography on 30-50 m levels at 7-9° N along 137° E in summer is very closely correlated with El Nino events because of the thermocline movement caused by enhanced upwelling in this area during El Nino years .     

南黄海秋末温盐度垂直结构及其与流系关系的分析

自五十年代末以来，我国对南黄海124°E以西海区曾进行过不少的调查研究，对该海区的水文特征、水团结构和海流系统已有了基本的了解。但由于资料的限制，对124°E以东海区的情况了解尚少，所以有些问题，如黄海冷水团内部的温盐结构，黄海暖流以何种形式和以何路径进入南黄海等等，并不十分清楚。因此本文引用1983年11月中国科学院海洋研究所和美国伍兹霍尔海洋研究所在南黄海联合调查获得的Mark-III CTD 资料和浮标测流资料(站位见图1)，拟对南黄海秋末温、盐度垂直结构及其与流系之间的关系作一初步探讨。     

太平洋和印度洋在南海夏季风爆发年代际变化中的作用

利用1951～1998年多种大气和海洋资料,研究了太平洋和印度洋在南海夏季风爆发中的作用.结果表明,影响南海夏季风爆发早晚的因素存在着年代际变化:1951～1970年,印度洋起主要作用;1970～1998年西太平洋起主要作用.该年代际变化主要是1970年前后北极涛动(AO)的跃变以及西太平洋副高强度变化的结果.1951...     

A THEORETICAL SOLUTION FOR THE THERMOHALINE CIRCULATION IN THE SOUTHERN YELLOW SEA

Application of the thermocline equations in the thermocline areas and the boundary layer and the asymptotic matching techniques in each boundary in order to satisfy the surface and bottom conditions yielded a theoretical 2- D solution of the vertical thermohaline circulation of the Southern Yellow Sea in summer when the quasi-statically varying seasonal thermocline (density layer) is the background density structure , the deviations from which cause the secondary vertical circulation . The results show that the thermocline can be considered as an internal boundary or a barrier to the vertical heat advection so that in the central areas of the Southern Yellow Sea or the center of the Yellow Sea Cold Water Mass(YCWM)> the downwelling in the upper layer and upwelling in the lower or bottom layer form a double cell vertical circulation . The solution is similar to Hu's conceptual model ( 1986) in the central areas of the YCWM and is consistent with observed temperature . salinity and dissolved oxygen distri     

Study of long-wave breaking

This paper reports study on the mechanism of long-wave breaking in a one-dimensional open chan-nel,without bottom friction,or with linear bottom friction.In general,the wave breaking phenomenon is related to the notion of"blow-up of solution"and can be studied by using the blow-up theory of par-tial differential equations(PDE).A pair of Riemann invariants are introduced to transform the governingequations into ordinary differential equations(ODE)along the characteristic directions of the governingequations.From the properties of the solutions of the ODE,the time and location of wave breakingare estimated and the criterion of long-wave breaking for the case with linear bottom friction is obtained.     

UPWELLING AND SEDIMENTATION DYNAMICS Ⅲ：COINCIDENCE OF UPWELLING AREAS WITH MUD PATCHES IN NORTH HEMISPHERE SHELF SEAS

The determinant role of upwelling in fine sediment patches is examined from the view-points of physical process and biological process respectively. It is pointed out that physical and biologicalprocesses are usually coexistent and interact with each other during the sedimentation of suspended mat-ters. This study used available figures showing the circulation pattern and surface sediment distribution inthe whole China Seas, the Gulf of Maine, the Irish Sea and the North Sea, and additional data to verifythat wherever upwelling exists on the continental shelf, mud must occur; and that wherever dowrtwellingoccurs, coarse sediment substitutes for mud.     

风生沿岸上升流及沿岸流的一个非稳态模式

七十年代以来,有关沿岸上升流及沿岸流的研究受到了人们异乎寻常的重视。除其本身的理论意义之外,这主要还是因为世界上的鱼有一半是在面积仅占世界海洋总面积千分之一的沿岸上升流区捕获的缘故(Ryther,1969)。由于广泛的海上调查,世界上新发现的上升流区愈来愈多。上升流已不再是东部边界流独具的特征了,在西部边界也发现了不少上升流区。     

北太平洋Hadley 环流纬向结构的季节和年际变化

为了描述北太平洋上空Hadley 环流的纬向结构特征, 利用NCEP 再分析资料(1979～2010 年), 研究了北太平洋上空Hadley 环流纬向结构的季节和年际变化。发现在西太平洋, Hadley 环流季节性上升支呈西北-东南倾斜, 其垂向核心位于对流层中层, 纬向核心在北半球冬季(夏季)位于日界线附近(150°E); 而永久性上升支主要在东太平洋, 其垂向核心位于对流层低层, 且沿经度东移逐渐增强。根据纬向环流结构特征, 北半球冬季环流形态分为3 个区域: 160°E 以西, 主要表现为低层辐合高层辐散;160°E～130°W, 主要表现为高层辐合; 130°W 以东, 表现为低层辐合高层辐散特征。相似地, 北半球夏季环流形态也可沿纬向分为如下3 个区域: 165°E 以西、165°E～165°W 和165°W 以东, 分别对应东亚夏季风主导经圈环流区、过渡区、Hadley 环流主导经圈环流区。在年际变化上, 北太平洋Hadley 环流与ENSO 有很强的相关, 这与前人的研究是一致的。因此北太平洋上空Hadley 环流具有显著的空间性态, 并且对应时间尺度不同, 影响其变化的主要因素也不尽相同。

用６个加速度计组阵系统来监测船体姿态和运动，校正船上观测到的风湍流资料，然后用涡动相关技术计算海气之间动量，热量和水汽通量，结果表明，本观测系统可精确地消除船体运动对风湍流的影响，并获得精确的海气湍流通量。     

137°经向断面温、盐度的年际变异

系统地分析了１３７°Ｅ断面温、盐度的多年变化,主要结果为：（１）１３７°Ｅ断面１００ｍ层温度,在低纬度海域于某些年份出现异常低温,此现象可能与厄尔尼诺事件有关;指出棉兰老冷涡的存在是造成该断面于６°～８°Ｎ附近出现低温的主要原因．（２）厄尔尼诺期间,冬季１３７°Ｅ断面上２８℃等温线所在纬度小于其多年平均值．（３）冬季１３７°Ｅ断面上次表层高盐水可划分为强型、次强型、中等型和弱型４种类型．
