To achieve sustainable development, it is necessary to understand the physical mechanism of the haze pollution there. Therefore, the pollutant transport mechanisms of a haze event over the BTH region from 23 to 24 September 2011 were studied using the Weather Research and Forecasting model and the FLEXible-PARTicle dispersion model to understand the effects of the local atmospheric circulations and atmospheric boundary layer structure. Results suggested that the penetration by sea-breeze could strengthen the vertical dispersion by lifting up the planetary boundary layer height（PBLH） and carry the local pollutants to the downstream areas; in the early night, two elevated pollution layers（EPLs） may be generated over the mountain areas： the pollutants in the upper EPL at the altitude of 2–2.5 km were favored to disperse by long-range transport, while the lower EPL at the altitude of 1 km may serve as a reservoir, and the pollutants there could be transported downward and contribute to the surface air pollution.The intensity of the sea–land and mountain–valley breeze circulations played an important role in the vertical transport and distribution of pollutants. It was also found that the diurnal evolution of the PBLH is important for the vertical dispersion of the pollutants,which is strongly affected by the local atmospheric circulations and the distribution of urban areas.展开更多

文摘本文使用高分辨率WRFV3.4.1模式对TWP-ICE试验期间的一次热带深对流过程进行了数值模拟,利用第四重嵌套每五分钟输出一次的模拟资料对对流系统的上升气流质量通量廓线特征进行了分析,并结合FLEXPART拉格朗日粒子扩散模式对热带深对流系统进行拉格朗日轨迹分析.质量通量廓线特征及拉格朗日轨迹的分析结果表明,在条件不稳定层顶附近便有部分水凝物被输送出深对流系统.深对流系统中的水凝物主要沿环境引导气流向深对流下游方向输送.由于受低层风场扰动的影响,少量的水凝物被输送到深对流系统的上游.深对流系统中的水凝物向其下游方向输送的最远距离为200-300 km,并约有10%-20%的水凝物对对流系统下游50-150 km附近卷云砧的形成产生影响,其影响的时间尺度约为4-6 h.
