1950—2009年夏季菲律宾低空越赤道气流的变化特征

利用1950—2009年NECP/NCAR的月平均经向风再分析资料,根据夏季(6—8月)菲律宾低空越赤道气流的特征,定义了该支气流的强度指数IS和位置偏移指数IL,并根据这两个指数分析了菲律宾越赤道气流的时间变化特征及对应的环流特征,以及其与亚洲夏季降水的关系。结果表明,IS主要呈现弱、强、弱、强的年代际变化特征,IL主要呈现振荡、稳定、径直转向的年代际变化特征。IS与由低层澳大利亚高压北侧冷空气活跃和西太平洋副热带高压减弱所造成的经向气压梯度的变化有关,IL与澳大利亚地区和赤道低槽区高、低层的南北气压梯度有关。IS与印度尼西亚、孟加拉湾南部、热带西太平洋和澳大利亚东部的降水关系密切,IL与孟加拉湾和中国南海南部的降水关系密切。此外,IL与澳大利亚上空的垂直运动具有密切联系。     

Impact of subgrid scale scheme on topography and landuse for better regional scale simulation of meteorological variables over the western Himalayas

An attempt is made to integrate subgrid scale scheme on the work of Dimri and Ganju (Pure Appl Geophys 167:1–24, 2007) to understand the overall nature of surface heterogeneity and landuse variability along with resolvable finescale micro/meso scale circulation over the Himalayan region, which is having different altitudes and orientations causing prevailing weather conditions to be complex. This region receives large amount of precipitation due to eastward moving low-pressure synoptic weather systems, called western disturbances, during winter season (December, January, February—DJF). Surface heterogeneity and landuse variability of the Himalayan region gives rise to numerous micro/meso scale circulation along with prevailing weather. Therefore, in the present work, a mosaic type parameterization of subgrid scale topography and landuse within a framework of a regional climate model (RegCM3) is extended to study interseasonal variability of surface climate during a winter season (October 1999–March 2000) of the work of Dimri and Ganju (Pure Appl Geophys 167:1–24, 2007). In this scheme, meteorological variables are disaggregated from the coarse grid to the fine grid, land surface calculations are then performed separately for each subgrid cell, and surface fluxes are calculated and reaggregated onto the coarse grid cell for input to the atmospheric model. By doing so, resolvable finescale structures due to surface heterogeneity and landuse variability at coarse grid are subjected to parameterize at regular finescale surface subgrid. Model simulations show that implementation of subgrid scheme presents more realistic simulation of precipitation and surface air temperature. Influence of topographic elevation and valleys is better represented in the scheme. Overall, RegCM3 with subgrid scheme provides more accurate representation of resolvable finescale atmospheric/surface circulations that results in explaining mean variability in a better way.     

1961—2018年广东高温的气候变率及其与大气环流和海温异常的关系

利用1961—2018年广东86个国家气象观测站逐日最高气温资料,NCEP/NCAR月尺度再分析大气环流资料、海表温度资料(ERSST V5),国家气候中心大气环流指数资料,采用相关、合成、突变分析等方法分析了广东高温的气候变率及其与大气环流和海温的关系。结果表明,近58年来广东平均高温日数以3.0 d/(10 a)的速率显著上升,并在1998年发生增加的突变。广东高温日数具有显著的年际和年代际变化并且其对应的大气环流和海温的异常特征基本相同,但年际差异比年代际差异更加明显。在6—9月,对流层中高层位势高度正异常是广东高温日数偏多的一个重要原因,同时南亚高压和西太平洋副热带高压偏强、影响华南的偏北气流偏强,大陆高压加强也对应高温日数偏多。在5—8月,热带印度洋、热带西太平洋、南海海温偏高有利于广东高温日数增多。      

Variation in summer surface air temperature over Northeast Asia and its associated circulation anomalies

This study investigates the interannual variation of summer surface air temperature over Northeast Asia(NEA) and its associated circulation anomalies.Two leading modes for the temperature variability over NEA are obtained by EOF analysis.The first EOF mode is characterized by a homogeneous temperature anomaly over NEA and therefore is called the NEA mode.This anomaly extends from southeast of Lake Baikal to Japan,with a central area in Northeast China.The second EOF mode is characterized by a seesaw pattern,showing a contrasting distribution between East Asia(specifically including the Changbai Mountains in Northeast China,Korea,and Japan) and north of this region.This mode is named the East Asia(EA) mode.Both modes contribute equivalently to the temperature variability in EA.The two leading modes are associated with different circulation anomalies.A warm NEA mode is associated with a positive geopotential height anomaly over NEA and thus a weakened upper-tropospheric westerly jet.On the other hand,a warm EA mode is related to a positive height anomaly over EA and a northward displaced jet.In addition,the NEA mode tends to be related to the Eurasian teleconnection pattern,while the EA mode is associated with the East Asia-Pacific/PacificJapan pattern.

TROPICAL SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURE ANOMALY AND INDIAN SUMMER MONSOON*

The time series of the sea surface temperature(SST) anomaly,covering the eastern (western) equatorial Pacific,central Indian Ocean,Arabian Sea.Bay of Bengal and South China Sea(SCS),have been analyzed by using wavelet transform.Results show that there exists same interdeeadal variability of SST in the tropical Pacific and tropical Indian Ocean,and also show that the last decadal abrupt change occurred in the 1970s.On the interannual time scale,there is a similar interannual variability among the equatorial central Indian Ocean and the adjacent three sea basins(Arabian Sea.Bay of Bengal and South China Sea).but the SST interannual changes of the Indian Ocean lagged 4-5 months behind that of the equatorial central-east Pacific.Meanwhile,the interannual variability and long-range change between SST anomaly and Indian summer monsoon rainfall in recent decades have been explained and analyzed.It indicates that there existed a wet(dry) period in India when the tropical SST was lower(higher)than normal,but there was a lag of phase between them.     

东北春季极端低温的变化特征及其与大西洋海温的关系

利用1958—2007年全球海温、位势高度场月平均资料和我国东北地区64个测站的春季地面气温资料,分析了我国东北地区春季极端低温的时空变化特征及其与大气环流和海温异常的关系。结果表明：近50a来,我国东北春季极端低温事件频数整体呈减少趋势;极端低温频数主要存在全区一致变化型和南北反相变化型两种模态;极端低温事件频数与北极涛动存在显著负相关关系,同时在极端低温多年,极涡较弱,乌拉尔山阻塞高压偏强,东北冷涡较强,反之亦然;影响我国东北地区春季极端低温的关键海区为中北大西洋海区,极端低温多年,中北大西洋海温较常年偏冷,反之则中北大西洋海温较常年偏暖。这对于预测东北春季极端低温事件的年际变化具有很好的指示意义。数值试验结果表明,中北大西洋海温异常可激发欧亚波列,致使中国东北温度异常。
