基于QuikSCAT卫星遥感风场的台风最大风速半径反演及个例分析

建立了一种卫星遥感风场的最大风速半径(Rmax )反演方法.该方法基于 QuikSCAT 风场,结合 JTWC 台风参数资料,将遥感平均风剖面与 Holland 台风模型进行最小二乘法拟合来反演 Rmax.2001-2009年13个台风69幅数据反演结果统计分析表明:用气压表征台风强度的 P 算法遥感反演结果与 JTWC 分析结果的标准差为10.7 km,效果较好.此外,通过0513、0519和0221 3个典型台风过程的 Rmax 演变情况分析表明:对于对称性结构较好的成熟台风,反演结果能较好地反映出不同台风的 Rmax 尺寸差别,台风过程中 Rmax 的演变情况符合台风发展情况;台风风场对称性差、地形以及背景流场的影响,是导致 Rmax 反演出现较大偏差主要因素.     

基于MISR多角度光学遥感影像的海面风速估算实验

太阳耀光是来自粗糙海面的直接太阳反射光,其强度与海面粗糙度密切相关,而海面粗糙度主要受海面风场影响。因此,包含太阳耀光信息的光学遥感影像在海洋动力过程和海面风速探测中具有积极意义。本文利用2016年2月到2017年3月期间成像的25幅Terra卫星MISR(Multi-angle Imaging Spectro Radiometer)传感器的多角度遥感影像,分别提取了太阳的高度角和方位角、正视和后视影像的卫星观测角、方位角等信息,校正获得正视和后视影像的太阳耀光辐射强度,进一步反演海表面粗糙度信息,进而计算海面风速。最后利用ECMWF(European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts)的模式风速数据与反演获得的风速结果进行对比验证。结果表明,两者的相关系数较高(R=0.745),均方根误差和平均绝对偏差值分别为1.514 m·s^-1和1.319 m·s^-1。初步实验结果表明,利用MISR多角度光学遥感影像估算海表面风速是可行性的。     

"珍珠"台风强度及路径异常的分析

利用常规观测资料和NCEP 1°×1°格点资料,从能量场、湿度场、辐散场以及西南季风和越赤道气流等多方面对"珍珠"的强度及路径进行分析,发现副高前期在南海的维持以及副高后期环流形势的调整是"珍珠"强度维持和路径突变的关键;南海海域维持高能区、弱水平风垂直切变、对流层上层强大的辐散场、以及充沛的水汽供应、风场动力非对称结构等是"珍珠"强度能维持的重要原因;西南季风、越赤道气流和副高南落而引发的东南风急流形成的季风汇合线是"珍珠"北翘的直接原因.台风风场结构中不对称强风速区的转移对台风路径改变有预示作用.     

利用机载GNSS反射信号反演海面风速的研究

全球卫星导航定位系统的反射信号(GNSS-R)遥感技术作为一种新型的、低成本的、高机动性的海面微波遥感测风技术,与其他测风手段优势互补,可以增加测风手段的多样性,弥补局部测风手段不足的状况。研究了接收机在机载高度时,GPS反射信号功率理论模型四部分函数的性质,在此基础之上,数值模拟了机载高度下理论相关功率波形,基于海面风速对波形峰值与后沿的影响,提出了一种能够兼顾所有理论波形信息的二维插值风速反演方法。利用该方法,结合实测机载数据对海面风速进行反演,反演的风速均值与附近测站风速均值相差为1.4 m/s,与浮标数据相一致。     

广东沿海的极值风速概率分布研究

简要论述了当前广泛使用的极值理论和极值分布理论3个概率分布模型——标准耿贝尔(SG)分布、广义极值(GEV)分布和广义帕累托分布(GPD).应用模型推算广东沿海9个站点的极值风速,对比分析结果表明:(1)3个模型都是推算极值风速的合适模型,但GPD模型可更充分地利用实际观测站点数据,风速拟合的PPCC和RMSE指标确定GPD是更优的概率模型; (2)选取的超阚值风速样本服从GPD-Ⅱ型分布,偏向于给出比SG模型和GEV模型更大的极值风速估计值; (3)从工程安全考虑,尤其在观测数据较少情况下推算工程设计风速可优先选用GPD模型.     

Envisat ASAR溢油检测影响因素分析

开展了Envisat ASAR溢油检测的影响因素分析,以2010 年墨西哥湾溢油事故为例,主要从入射角和海面风速两个 方面,开展了油膜和海水的后向散射特征分析,给出了适合ASAR 溢油检测的入射角与海面风速范围。对入射角的分析表 明,在中等风速条件下,入射角在28毅~36毅的范围内,油膜和海水的后向散射值相差大于5dB,两者在SAR影像上容易区分; 在入射角为20毅~24毅时,油膜和海水的后向散射值相差较小;在入射角大于37毅时,油膜的后向散射值接近ASAR 的系统噪 声。对海面风速的分析显示,适合ASAR影像溢油检测的风速范围是3.0~7.0 m/s;风速小于3 m/s时,油膜和海水的后向散 射值均较低;风速为9.7 m/s时,油膜和海水在ASAR影像上难以区分。     

Rainfall effect on wind waves and the turbulence beneath air-sea interface

Rainfall effects on wind waves and turbulence are investigated through the laboratory experiments in a large wind-wave tank. It is found that the wind waves are damped as a whole at low wind speeds, but are enhanced at high wind speeds. This dual effect of rain on the wind waves increases with the increase of rain rate, while the influence of rainfall-area length is not observable. At the low wind speed, the corresponding turbulence in terms of the turbulent kinetic energy （TKE） dissipation rate is significantly enhanced by rain- fall as the waves are damped severely. At the high wind speed, the augment of the TKE dissipation rate is suppressed while the wind waves are enhanced simultaneously. In the field, however, rainfall usually hin- ders the development of waves. In order to explain this contradiction of rainfall effect on waves, a possibility about energy transfer from turbulence to waves in case of the spectral peak of waves overlapping the inertial subrange of turbulence is assumed. It can be applied to interpret the damping phenomenon of gas trans- fer velocity in the laboratory experiments, and the variation of the TKE dissipation rates near sea surface compared with the law of wall.     

First six months quality assessment of HY-2A SCAT wind products using in situ measurements

The first Chinese microwave ocean environment satellite HY-2A, carrying a Ku-band scatteromenter （SCAT）, was successfully launched in August 2011. The first quality assessment of HY-2A SCAT wind products is presented through the comparison of the first 6 months operationally released SCAT products with in situ data. The in situ winds from the National Data Buoy Center （NDBC） buoys, R/V Polarstern, Aurora Australis, Roger Revelle and PY30-1 oil platform, were converted to the 10 m equivalent neutral winds. The temporal and spatial differences between the HY-2A SCAT and the in situ observations were limited to less than 5 min and 12.5 km. For HY-2A SCAT wind speed products, the comparison and analysis using the NDBC buoys yield a bias of-0.49 m/s, a root mean square error （RMSE） of 1.3 m/s and an increase negative bias with increasing wind speed observation above 3 m/s. Although less accurate of HY-2A SCAT wind direction at low winds, the RMSE of 19.19° with a bias of 0.92° is found for wind speeds higher than 3 m/s. These results are found consistent with those from R/Vs and oil platform comparisons. Moreover, the NDBC buoy comparison results also suggest that the accuracy of HY-2A SCAT winds is consistent over the first half year of 2012. The encouraging assessment results over the first 6 months show that wind products from HY-2A SCAT will be useful for scientific community.
