On 11 September 2023 the minimum was 4.969 million square kilometers(mill.km^(2)). This was not a record low, which occurred in 2012, when the minimum was 4.175 mill.km^(2), 0.794 mill.km^(2) less than the minimum in 2023. However, the ice extent had decreased by 0.432 mill.km^(2) compared with 2022. Nevertheless, the summer melting in 2023 was remarkably less than expected when considering the strong heat waves in the atmosphere and ocean, with record temperatures set around the world. In general, there is a high correlation between the long-term decrease in sea-ice extent and the increasing CO_(2) in the atmosphere, where the increase of CO_(2) in recent decades explains about 80% of the decrease in sea ice in September, while the remainder is caused by natural variability.展开更多

文摘Weak turbulence often occurs during heavy pollution events in eastern China(EC).However,existing mesoscale meteorology models cannot accurately simulate turbulent diffusion under weakened turbulence,particularly under the nocturnal stable boundary layer(SBL),often leading to significant turbulent diffusivity underestimation and surface aerosol overestimation.In this study,a new parameterization of minimum turbulent diffusivity coefficient(Kz_(min))was tested and applied to PM_(2.5)simulations in EC under SBL conditions in WRF-Chem.The original model overestimated the PM_(2.5)simulation and the simulation performance can be improved by adding Kz_(min).Sensitivity experiments revealed different ranges of available Kz_(min)values over the northern(0.8 to 1.2 m^(2)/s)and southern(1.0 to 1.5 m^(2)/s)regions of EC.The geographically related Kz_(min)was parameterized by sensible heat flux(H)and latent heat flux(LE),which also exhibited regional differences related to the climate and underlying surface.Furthermore,we assign physical significance to the parameterized formula Kz_(min)and found that our proposed Kz_(min)scheme can reasonably yield dynamic Kz_(min)values over EC.The revised Kz_(min)scheme(EXP_(NEW))enhanced the turbulent diffusion(north:0.93 m^(2)/s,south:1.10 m^(2)/s on average)in the SBL,simultaneously improving the PM_(2.5)simulations on the surface(north:65.78 to 0.67μg/m^(3);south 30.48 to 12.86μg/m^(3))and upper SBL.A process analysis showed that vertical mixing was the key process for improving PM_(2.5)simulations on the surface in EXP_(NEW).This study highlighted the importance of improving turbulent diffusion in current mesoscale models under SBL and has great significance for aerosol simulation.

文摘To address the excessive complexity of monthly scheduling and the impact of uncertain net load on the chargeable energy of storage,a reduced time-period monthly scheduling model for thermal generators and energy storage,incorporating daily minimum chargeable energy constraints,was developed.Firstly,considering the variations in the frequency of unit start-ups and shutdowns under different levels of net load fluctuation,a method was proposed to reduce decision time periods for unit start-up and shut-down operations.This approach,based on the characteristics of net load fluctuations,minimizes the decision variables of units,thereby simplifying the monthly schedulingmodel.Secondly,the relationship between energy storage charging and discharging power,net load,and the total maximum/minimum output of units was analyzed.Based on this,daily minimum chargeable energy constraints were established to ensure the energy storage system meets charging requirements under extreme net load scenarios.Finally,taking into account the operational costs of thermal generators and energy storage,load loss costs,and operational constraints,the reduced time-period monthly schedulingmodel was constructed.Case studies demonstrate that the proposedmethod effectively generates economical monthly operation plans for thermal generators and energy storage,significantly reduces model solution time,and satisfies the charging requirements of energy storage under extreme net load conditions.
