东风波诱生低涡发生发展的螺旋度演变特征分析

利用NCEP 1°×1°再分析资料对2001年8月3~4日浙南闽北的东风波暴雨过程,根据螺旋度(Helicity)分析了过程中的暴雨演变以及雁荡山脉诱生中尺度低涡发生发展的原因。同时,利用中尺度有限区域模式MM5V2对该东风波诱生中尺度低涡进行模拟。结果表明:螺旋度大值中心强度和位置的演变较好地反映了暴雨落区和中尺度低涡的诱生、移动,螺旋度的时空演变对暴雨发生有一定的预示意义,螺旋度计算较中尺度模式得出诱生低涡初生位置、路径预报准确率高,二者集成可以提高诱生低涡的预报准确率。     

一个简单的雪晶辐射参数化方案及雪晶辐射对中尺度降水的影响

文章提出一个简单的雪晶辐射性质参数化方案, 并利用1998年6月8日华南暴雨资料研究了雪晶的辐射性质对于中尺度降水的影响。结果表明:雪晶的辐射性质对中尺度降水的影响是不可忽略的, 白天尤为显著; 它能够明显地改变中尺度降水的局部特征, 特别是降水中心的强度和位置, 而对降水的分布影响不大。因此, 建立独立的雪晶辐射参数化对提高中尺度模式对中尺度降水的预报能力是必要的。

云南冷锋切变型暴雨的中尺度特征分析

利用T106数值预报产品资料，通过中尺度滤波方法，提取云南冷锋切变型暴雨过程中的中尺度降水系统，对其有关物理量的特征及演变进行了分析。研究发现，通过中尺度滤波方法，可以从常规的数值预报产品资料中有效分离出直接导致暴雨的中尺度天气系统，通过对这些中尺度系统的分析及追踪，可以为暴雨预报提供更为客观的预报依据；水汽的强辐合时段与暴雨降落时段有较好的对应关系，暴雨落区比水汽的强辐合区域要稍偏向于水汽输送的下游方向；在该型暴雨的发生过程中，北部冷平流具有十分重要的作用，但南部暖平流的作用也不可忽视。     

STRUCTURE OF MESO-β AND –γ-SCALE ON SOUTH CHINA HEAVY RAINFALL ON 12～13 JUNE 2005 USING DUAL-DOPPLER RADAR

The three-dimensional wind fields of the heavy rain on 12-13 June 2005 in Guangdong province are retrieved and studied with the volume scan data of the dual-Doppler radar located in the cities of Meizhou and Shantou. It is shown that the meso-β-scale and meso-γ-scale convergence lines located in the convective system at the low and middle layer play an important role in the heavy rainfall. The convergence line is the initiating and maintaining mechanism of the rain. A three dimensional kinematic structure model is also given.     

中尺度大气波动的波谱和谱函数——数学模型和计算方法

作者得到了准二维Boussinesq方程组，并用其研究了中尺度大气波动的波谱和谱函数。在一定条件下对该方程组线性化并取标准模后，可将其初边值问题转化为矩阵的广义特征值问题来进行数值求解，这样就可知原问题波谱和谱函数的性质。当无基本流且取地转参数、层结参数为常数时，可求得其波谱和谱函数的解析解。此时该模式中仅包含有一对重力惯性内波模态，且各模态均是简谐波；模态越高，垂直波数越大则波动传播得越慢，所有的模态均为离散谱，并存在聚点。对此作者用数值解作了验算，结果表明，该数值求解方案合理可行，对不太高的模态其精度也令人满意。在无基本流然而考虑层结的垂直变化后，则一般无法求取解析解，为此进行了数值求解。这时该模式仍仅包含有一对重力惯性内波的离散谱模态，不过由于层结参数的变化，各模态结构与简谐波出现了偏差。

Assessing uncertainties in dust emission in the Aral Sea region caused by meteorological fields predicted with a mesoscale model

This study investigates how the choice of the planetary boundary layer (PBL) parameterization and dust emission scheme affects the prediction of dust entrainment simulated with a regional mesoscale model. For this analysis we consider a representative dust episode which occurred on April 2001 in the Aral Sea region. The meteorological fields were simulated using the PSU/NCAR MM5 modeling system considering two different boundary layer parameterizations. In each case, emitted dust fluxes were computed off-line by incorporating MM5 meteorological fields into the dust module DuMo. Several dust emission schemes with a prescribed erodible fraction and fixed threshold wind speed were the subject of our analysis. Implications to assessment of the anthropogenic fraction of dust emitted in the Aral region were investigated by conducting the full, half, and no lake modeling experiments.Our results show that the discrepancies in dust fluxes between the two different PBLs are much higher compared to the discrepancy associated with the use of considered dust production schemes. Furthermore, the choice of the PBL affects the timing and duration of a modeled dust event. We demonstrate that different combinations of the PBL parameterization and wind- or friction velocity-driven dust emission schemes can result in up to about a 50% difference in predicted dust mass caused by the Aral Sea desiccation. We found that the drying-up of the Aral cannot only affect the dust emission by expanding the source area, but also by affecting atmospheric characteristics, especially winds. These competitive factors add further complexity to quantification of the anthropogenic dust fraction in the region.
