The modeled atmospheric and oceanic response to the South China Sea SST anomaly

The sensitivity of the global atmospheric and oceanic response to sea surface temperature anomaly (SSTA) throughout the South China Sea (SCS) is investigated using the Fast Ocean-Atmosphere Model (FOAM). Forced by a warming SST, the experiment explicitly demonstrates that the responses of surface air temperature (SAT) and SST exhibit positive anomalous center over SCS and negative anomalous center over the Northern Pacific Ocean (NPO). The atmospheric response to the warm SST anomalies is characterized by a barotropical anomaly in middle-latitude, leading to a weak subtropical high in summer and a weak Aleutian low in winter. Accordingly, Indian monsoon and eastern Asian monsoon strengthen in summer but weaken in winter as a result of wind convergence owing to the warm SST. It is worth noting that the abnormal signals propagate poleward and eastward away in the form of Rossby Waves from the forcing region, which induces high pressure anomaly. Owing to action of the wind-driven circulation, an anomalous anti-cyclonic circulation is induced with a primary southward current in the upper ocean. An obvious cooling appears over the North Pacific, which can be explained by anomalous meridional cold advection and mixing as shown in the analysises of heat budget and other factors that affect SST.     

区域地球化学特征及其主控因素——对内蒙古珠斯楞地区找矿的意义

在1∶5万水系沉积物测量的基础上,对内蒙古额济纳旗珠斯愣地区的地球化学特征及其主控因素进行初步分析,并对元素分布特征、元素相关性分析、单元素异常与构造之间关系、综合异常与构造之间关系进行了探讨。研究发现,Cu、Au、Sb为区内具一定潜力的找矿元素,与呼伦西白-珠斯楞海尔罕反"S"形构造带南端内、外旋面的转换的珠斯楞海尔罕一带形成一个与断裂构造吻合度较高的、半环性的成矿成晕中心。因而推断,区内具有形成与中酸性侵入岩有关的热液铜多金属矿的可能,其中珠斯楞海尔罕铜金矿和道布青乌苏南北金锑矿2个找矿靶区严格受呼伦西白-珠斯楞海尔罕反"S"形构造的控制。
