利用实测的大气观测数据建立陆面模式驱动场, 分别驱动Biosphere-Atmosphere Transfer Scheme（BATS）, Land Surface Model（LSM）, Common Land Model（CoLM）三个陆面模式, 对新疆地区99个测站的陆面热力过程进行了off-line模拟研究, 对比分析了三个模式模拟结果的异同, 并利用观测的土壤温度检验了各个模式的模拟性能。结果表明： 三个模式对所吸收的太阳辐射、 地表感热通量、 地表潜热通量和Bowen比的模拟结果有明显差别, 其中CoLM模拟的太阳辐射、 感热通量和土壤温度比BATS和LSM大。用观测的土壤温度对三个模式模拟性能的检验表明 BATS模拟的土壤温度最接近观测值, 大约偏低1℃, 而LSM和CoLM的模拟结果偏高, CoLM模拟的年际变化趋势与观测值相关性达到0.877, 高于另外两个模式的模拟; BATS在天山以北模拟值偏低, CoLM在天山以南模拟结果偏高, LSM模拟的区域分布状况与实际观测最一致。这些结果为研究陆面模式在新疆地区的应用提供了一些参考, 对于深入了解新疆地区的陆面过程具有重要意义。     

Temporal Variations in the Dissolved Nutrient Stocks in the Surface Water of the Western North Atlantic Ocean

Changes in patterns of undetectability and molar ratios of dissolved nutrients in the euphotic zone of the oligotrophic western North Atlantic Ocean were investigated utilizing the Bermuda Atlantic Time-series Study (BATS) data set of the US Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS). Our aim was to examine the temporal dynamics of nutrient stocks over a decade (1989∼1998) and to gain insight into the interactions between the different biotic and abiotic factors underlying BATS. Patterns of nutrient undetectability clearly revealed the depleted nature of the nutrients in surface water at the BATS location, particularly phosphorous. The N:P ratio was consistently far above the nominal Redfield ratio (mean, 38.5) but was significantly lower during the 1993∼1994 period (22.1). Over the same period the proportion of samples depleted in N only increased while the proportion of samples depleted in P only decreased. This indicates an overall reduction of N relative to P in the surface water at BATS during the 1993∼1994 period, the reasons for this anomaly, though, are not clear. The correlation analysis between the biotic and abiotic variables at BATS has indicated some interesting relationships that can help understand some of the parameters affecting nutrient stocks in the euphotic zone and their consequent impacts on marine biota. Although nutrient stocks in the oligotrophic environment are limited, they might be subject to interannual variation that may become anomalous in some cases. These variations might underlay significant feedback mechanisms by affecting marine productivity, the prime factor controlling the sequestration of atmospheric CO₂ by the oceans. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Simulation of upper-ocean biogeochemistry with a flexible-composition phytoplankton model: C, N and Si cycling in the western Sargasso Sea

We report the first application of a biogeochemical model in which the major elemental composition of the phytoplankton is flexible, and responds to changing light and nutrient conditions. The model includes two phytoplankton groups: diatoms and non-siliceous picoplankton. Both fix C in accordance with photosynthesis-irradiance relationships used in other models and take up NO₃⁻ and NH₄⁺ (and Si(OH)₄ for diatoms) following Michaelis-Menten kinetics. The model allows for light dependence of photosynthesis and NO₃⁻ uptake, and for the observed near-total light independence of NH₄⁺ uptake and Si(OH)₄ uptake. It tracks the resulting C/N ratios of both phytoplankton groups and Si/N ratio of diatoms, and permits uptake of C, N and Si to proceed independently of one another when those ratios are close to those of nutrient-replete phytoplankton. When the C/N or Si/N ratio of either phytoplankton group indicates that its growth is limited by N, Si or light, uptake of non-limiting elements is controlled by the content of the limiting element in accordance with the cell-quota formulation of Droop (J. Mar. Biol. Ass. U.K 54 (1974) 825).We applied this model to the Bermuda Atlantic Time-series Study (BATS) site in the western Sargasso Sea. The model was tuned to produce vertical profiles and time courses of [NO₃⁻], [NH₄⁺] and [Si(OH)₄] that are consistent with the data, by adjusting the kinetic parameters for N and Si uptake and the rate of nitrification. The model then reproduces the observed time courses of chlorophyll-a, particulate organic carbon and nitrogen, biogenic silica, primary productivity, biogenic silica production and POC export with no further tuning. Simulated C/N and Si/N ratios of the phytoplankton indicate that N is the main growth-limiting nutrient throughout the thermally stratified period and that [Si(OH)₄], although always limiting to the rate of Si uptake by diatoms, seldom limits their growth rate. The model requires significant nitrification in the upper 200 m to yield realistic time courses and vertical profiles of [NH₄⁺] and [NO₃⁻], suggesting that NO₃⁻ is not supplied to the upper water column entirely by physical processes. A nitrification-corrected f-ratio (f_NC), calculated for the upper 200 m as: (NO₃⁻ uptake—nitrification)/(NO₃⁻ uptake+NH₄⁺ uptake) has annual values ranging from only 0.05–0.09, implying that 90–95% of the N taken up annually by phytoplankton is supplied by biological regeneration (including nitrification) in the upper 200 m. Reported discrepancies between estimates of organic C export based on seasonal chemical changes and POC export measured at the BATS site can be almost completely resolved if there is significant regeneration of NO₃⁻ via organic-matter decomposition in the upper 200 m.     

区域气候模式中径流计算方案的数值试验

采用由曼宁方程推导而来的动力波方程来改进陆面模式BATS中的径流计算方案，并将改进径流方案后的BA偈模式应用到区域气候模式RegCM2中。利用1998年6—8月T106资料做边界场，对改进后的区域气候模式在中国东部地区进行检验。模拟结果表明，改进后的方案在夏季6—8月内模拟的径流值达到80—500mm左右，较原方案模拟的径流量（30—80mm）更加接近径流实况（50—500mm），体现了径流的大尺度平流效应。取单站（武汉）的模拟结果与原模式进行比较，发现模拟场的平均气温与实况场的误差较原模式减小了0．66℃，几次明显的降水过程也有很好的模拟。文中还分析了气温、降水、土壤含水量、蒸发等量的模拟情况。

Diurnal cycling of carbon monoxide (CO) in the upper ocean near Bermuda

A coupled photochemical–physical model for the upper ocean carbon monoxide concentration is presented. The coupled model uses a spectral optical model and a number of different mixing parameterizations. It is run using the meteorological forcing conditions measured during a 9-day investigation near Bermuda in the Sargasso Sea in March 1993 in the declining phase of the spring bloom. The baseline runs of the model are successful in simulating measurements made during the campaign, and form the basis of an optimization routine to find better estimates of the production and destruction constants of the photochemical tracer. The optimized values derived in this inverse procedure depend on the mixing parameterization and the assumed dark production rate of carbon monoxide.     

Land-Air Interaction over Arid/Semi-arid Areas in China and Its Impact on the East Asian Summer Monsoon. Part I： Calibration of the Land Surface Model （BATS） Using Multicriteria Methods

To improve the land surface simulation in the arid and semi-arid areas of northern China, the observational data from two field experiments in Dunhuang and Tongyu are used to optimize the parameters in the land surface model, BATS, through calibration with the multicriteria method. Sensitivity analysis to the parameters in Dunhuang and Tongyu indicates that different parameters need to be calibrated in two sites with different environmental and climate regimes. Comparison of observed sensible heat flux, latent heat flux, and ground surface temperature with the simulated ones shows the simulations with the optimized parameters have been substantially improved. Especially, the holistic simulations with the calibration of the parameter values are much closer to the observations in the arid region (Dunhuang), and the energy partition with the calibrated parameters can also be simulated well in the semi-arid region (Tongyu). Whole results demonstrate that the parameter calibration of the land surface model is important when the model is to be used to investigate the land-air interaction.     

淮河流域陆面水文过程的数值模拟

采用生物-大气传输模式（BATS模型）模拟了淮河流域山丘区和平原区在1998年汛期的暴雨洪水过程,从陆地-大气间水量交换的角度揭示了径流量、土壤含水量、土壤质地、植被分布的内在联系。结果表明：对于山丘区和平原区而言,根系层土壤含水量、土壤质地以及土壤颜色的变化对径流量的影响具有相似性,但是敏感性不同;而山丘区和平原区深层土壤含水量和植被覆盖率变化对径流量影响的作用正好相反。这些结果显示,由于山丘区与平原区的不同气候和下垫面条件,而造成两者水文性质的差异性,反映了大气-水文之间关系与作用的不同特征。     

陆面过程模型CoLM与BATS1e的模拟精度比较——以东北玉米农田为例

利用2008年锦州玉米农田生态系统野外观测站资料对CoLM与BATS1e模型模拟能力进行定量评价。比较发现： 两模型对净辐射和表层土壤温度的模拟精度都较高且差异不大,CoLM模型对感热、潜热、土壤热通量、次表层土壤温度模拟能力都不同程度高于BATS1e模型,模拟值对实测值解释能力分别偏高3%、22%、1%、10%,NS (Nash-sutcliffe效率系数)分别偏高1.042、0.266、0.023、0.138。从各月情况看,两模型在7月对感热、潜热模拟能力都较高,而在其它月份CoLM模型模拟精度明显高于BATS1e模型,土壤热通量和次表层土壤温度在5~8月前者模拟精度高于后者。由于CoLM模型对潜热更高精度的模拟可证明其对表层土壤湿度模拟精度高于BATS1e模型。     

MM5BATS对东亚夏季气候及其变化的模拟试验

将陆面过程模式BATS耦合到中尺度模式MM5V3中与另一区域气候模式RegCM2一起对1995—2000年夏季东亚的区域气候作了模拟试验,并与实际资料作了比较。模拟试验结果表明：(1)两个模式均能较合理地模拟出6年夏季平均的环流、温度和海平面气压等的变化,MM5BATS的模拟结果要略优于RegCM2的结果;(2)MM5BATS模式较合理地模拟出了6年夏季平均的降水分布,而RegCM2模式的模拟结果偏强;(3)MM5BATS模式较好地模拟出了1997年和1998年夏季环流场的变化,对降水的模拟也比较合理。RegCM2对1997年和1998年降水的模拟基本上都偏强。模拟试验结果还表明,在区域气候模拟中有必要采用更新的模式。
