昆明长水机场气候特征分析

利用昆明市1951—2010年逐日气象数据,采用回归分析法和Mann-Kendall突变分析法进行分析和检验,确定了昆明市极端降水和极端温度天气事件。在此基础上,对昆明长水机场极端天气背景下大雾天气航班安全运行开展研究,并在对比昆明长水机场与原巫家坝机场大雾特点的基础上,制定出航班安全运行的应对措施。研究表明,近几年昆明市极端温度和极端降水事件呈现增多趋势;因地形原因,长水机场出现大雾的频率远高于原巫家坝机场;大雾造成的低能见度天气背景下,航班的安全运行需要航空公司各部门的通力协作。     

人工智能在飞机颠簸预报中的应用进展及未来趋势展望

飞机颠簸对飞机运行安全及旅客舒适度具有很大危害,提高飞机颠簸的预报准确率对于减轻人员伤害和财产损失具有重要意义,且一直是航空气象研究的重点领域。随着观测手段的丰富和科学技术的进步,飞机颠簸预报也取得了长足发展。本文首先从定性预报和定量预报的角度对国内外飞机颠簸预报的主要方法,特别是人工智能(AI)方法在其中的最新应用进行了综述。在此基础上,归纳总结出AI用于飞机湍流预报存在的主要问题和未来的重点研究方向：1)飞机实况数据的开放共享以及多源湍流数据的融合构建问题;2)基于人工智能构建飞机颠簸预报模型的可解释性及物理机制问题;3)基于人工智能构建飞机颠簸的集合预报问题。最后,提出了气象领域未来第三代人工智能的发展思路。

基于民用航空规章的结冰气象条件探测数据分析方法

我国极度缺乏结冰气象条件中的云层数据,我国民用航空规章第25部附录C结冰条件只能复制于美国航空规章,对飞行探测得到的结冰云层数据进行附录C符合性分析的方法也少有研究。附录C结冰条件形成于20世纪40年代末,当时的探测手段与如今采用先进探测仪器所获取的数据形式有很大差异,因此首先明确附录C结冰条件参数的具体定义,根据当前探测仪器测量数据的高分辨率特性,对数据处理与分析方法进行研究。最后基于该方法对安庆结冰气象探测数据进行了分析,从分析结果看,该方法能够清晰呈现所探测结冰云层的结冰条件基本特征及其与附录C的符合性程度。     

An Overview of Nowcasting Development, Applications, and Services in the Hong Kong Observatory

The Hong Kong Observatory （HKO） has been developing a suite of nowcasting systems to support op- erations of the forecasting center and to provide a variety of nowcasting services for the general public and specialized users. The core system is named the Short-range Warnings of Intense Rainstorm of Localized Systems （SWIRLS）, which is a radar-based nowcasting system mainly for the automatic tracking of the movement of radar echoes and the short-range Quantitative Precipitation Forecast （QPF）. The differential, integral （or variational）, and object-oriented tracking algorithms were developed and integrated into the nowcasting suite. In order to predict severe weather associated with intense thunderstorms, such as high gust, hail, and lightning, SWIRLS was enhanced to SWIRLS-II by introduction of a number of physical models, especially the icing physics as well as the thermodynamics of the atmosphere. SWIRLS-Ⅱ was further enhanced with non-hydrostatic, high resolution numerical models for extending the forecast range up to 6h ahead. Meanwhile, SWIRLS was also modified for providing nowcasting services for aviation community and specialized users. To take into account the rapid development of lightning events, ensemble nowcasting techniques such as time-lagged and weighted average ensemble approaches were also adopted in the nowcasting system. Apart from operational uses in Hong Kong, SWIRLS/SWIRLS-Ⅱ was also exported to other places to participate in several international events such as the WMO/WWRP Forecast Demon- stration Project （FDP） during the Beijing 2008 Olympics Games and the Shanghai Expo 2010. Meanwhile, SWIRLS has also been transferred to various regional meteorological organizations for establishing their nowcasting infrastructure. This paper summarizes the history and the technologies of SWIRLS/SWIRLS-Ⅱ and its variants and the associated nowcasting applications and services provided by the HKO since the mid 1990s.

Tankering strategies for evading emissions trading in aviation

Which actors in the aviation sector ought to be obliged to participate in emissions trading? The European Commission opted for the aircraft operator in their proposal for a Directive. A major drawback is that non-EU aircraft operators might legally challenge their inclusion in this scheme and, if the challenge was successful, discrimination between EU and non- EU operators would undermine the scheme. An alternative would be to place an obligation on fuel suppliers to prove possession of allowances, thus avoiding discrimination. However, emissions trading can be evaded to some extent by increased refuelling beyond EU boundaries (tankering). Typical city pairs were used to analyse the conditions under which such tankering strategies are economically attractive. The analysis shows that the attractiveness of tankering depends substantially on the relationship between fuel prices and allowance prices. If the price relation as of March 2006 is taken as a basis, tankering would be attractive within a radius of up to 4,000 km especially on southbound and eastward routes. Emissions trading could, under unfavourable conditions, be evaded for up to 20% of the total fuel consumption in aviation with the help of tankering. Although this value is only a theoretical upper limit, more than 10% of fuel consumption could be affected by tankering.

乌鲁木齐机场一次寒潮多相态降水过程分析

利用常规观测资料及新疆区域自动站、乌鲁木齐风廓线雷达、多普勒雷达资料,针对2015年2月13日发生在乌鲁木齐地区的一次雨雪天气过程,从大气背景环境、风温垂直结构、冷暖平流及雨、雪相态转换成因等方面进行分析。结果表明:此次寒潮降水天气的大尺度环流背景是中亚地区高空脊向极区发展,脊顶北风引导极地冷空气南下,在西西伯利亚地区发展成大槽。大槽东移进入新疆地区后,槽后冷空气与北上的西南暖湿气流在天山山区汇合造成此次寒潮降水天气。乌鲁木齐机场出现雪转雨再转雪等相态转换,是由于先受冷平流控制,随着地面冷锋前部暖平流临近,低空暖层厚度加大,降雪粒子在降落过程中融化为雨滴,地面降水相态转为雨夹雪和雨,冷锋系统进入后,再次处于冷平流控制下,降水相态再由雨转为雪。风廓线雷达风场资料的分析结果表明,空中冷暖平流的性质和转换与降水相态变化有较好的对应关系;风廓线垂直速度显示,降雪粒子与雨滴粒子相比,垂直速度较小且雨滴粒子主要集中在1000 m以下。利用多普勒雷达产品分析地面冷锋的移动、空中冷暖平流的变化,有助于对降水相态变化的预报。
