The proposed northward heat transfer is consistent with the constraint, placed on the motions of the oceans and the atmosphere, of the earth’s heat balance due to the increased absorption of solar radiation at low latitudes compared to that at high latitudes. At mid-latitudes in the interior of continents, like North America, it is the job of the atmosphere alone to constantly help satisfy the global heat balance. Although qualitative in nature, the predicted northward heat flux is strongly based on frequent observations over lengthy time intervals.展开更多

We analyzed these aspects to understand the atmosphere ocean physical coupling processes characterized by the two early signals, and here we explain the possible mechanisms through which dipole circulation anomalies affect the summer low-temperature processes in Northeast China. We further analyzed the interdecadal variation background and associated physical processes of the two early signals.展开更多

Results show that most models can reproduce the spatial pattern of both climatological and anomalous circulation associated with the WNPSH in El Nino decaying summers. Most CMIP5 AGCMs can capture the westward shift of the WNPSH in El Nino decaying summers compared with the climatological location. With respect to the sub-seasonal variation of the WNPSH, the performances of these AGCMs in reproducing the northward jump of the WNPSH are better than simulating the eastward retreat of the WNPSH from July to August. Twenty-one out of twenty-two （20 out of 22） models can reasonably reproduce the northward jump of the WNPSH in El Nino decaying summers （climatology）, while only 7 out of 22 （8 out of 22） AGCMs can reasonably reproduce the eastward retreat of the WNPSH in El Nino decaying summers （climatology）. In addition, there is a close connection between the climatological WNPSH location bias and that in El Nino decaying summers.展开更多

Compared with ARs occurred over the northeastern Pacific, the western coast of North America and Europe, the ARs over the East Asia have received less attention. In this paper, the characteristics of ARs which affected China in the area 20?–60?N, 95?–165?E in the middle summer season from 2001 to 2016 were investigated by using European Center for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts(ECMWF) ERA-Interim reanalysis data and Multi-functional Transport Satellites-1 R(MTSAT-1 R) infrared data. Totally, 134 ARs occurred during that period, and averagely 8.4 ARs occurred per year. Statistically, 101 ARs were in east-west orientation, and 33 ARs were in north-south orientation, which accounts for about 75% and 25%, respectively. Herein we report the occurrence number, duration time, intensity, length, width, ratio of length to width, and extension orientation of these ARs, which provide the basic information for those who have interest in ARs over the East Asia.展开更多

The accuracy of monsoon seasonal predictions significantly impacts the lives of billions who depend on or are affected by monsoons, as it is essential for the water cycle, food security, ecology, disaster prevention, and the economy of monsoon regions. Given the extensive literature on Asian monsoon climate prediction, we limit our focus to reviewing the seasonal prediction and predictability of the Asian Summer Monsoon (ASM). However, much of this review is also relevant to monsoon predictions in other seasons and regions. Over the past two decades, considerable progress has been made in the seasonal forecasting of the ASM, driven by an enhanced understanding of the sources of predictability and the dynamics of seasonal variability, along with advanced development in sophisticated models and technologies. This review centers on advances in understanding the physical foundation for monsoon climate prediction (section 2), significant findings and insights into the primary and regional sources of predictability arising from feedback processes among various climate components (sections 3 and 4), the effects of global warming and external forcings on predictability (section 5), developments in seasonal prediction models and techniques (section 6), the challenges and limitations of monsoon climate prediction (section 7), and emerging research trends with suggestions for future directions (section 8). We hope this review will stimulate creative activities to enhance monsoon climate prediction.展开更多

文摘A set of numerical experiments designed to analyze the oceanic forcing in spring show that the combined forcing of cold （warm） El Ni（n）o （La Ni（n）a） phases in the Ni（n）o4 region and sea surface temperature anomalies （SSTA） in the westerly drifts region would result in abnormally enhanced NorthEast Cold Vortex （NECV） activities in early summer.In spring,the central equatorial Pacific El Ni（n）o phase and westerly drift SSTA forcing would lead to the retreat of non-adiabatic waves,inducing elliptic low-frequency anomalies of tropical air flows.This would enhance the anomalous cyclone-anticyclonecyclone-anticyclone low-frequency wave train that propagates from the tropics to the extratropics and further to the mid-high latitudes,constituting a major physical mechanism that contributes to the early summer circulation anomalies in the subtropics and in the North Pacific mid-high latitudes.The central equatorial Pacific La Ni（n）a forcing in the spring would,on the one hand,induce teleconnection anomalies of high pressure from the Sea of Okhotsk to the Sea of Japan in early summer,and on the other hand indirectly trigger a positive low-frequency East Asia-Pacific teleconnection （EAP） wave train in the lower troposphere.

文摘The commencement of the tropical Asian summer monsoon(TASM)in May is a crucial phase in its seasonal evolution,with critical implications for agriculture and water resources.Based on observational and reanalysis data,this study finds that the relationship between El Nino-Southern Oscillation(ENSO)and monsoon commencement experiences a notable interdecadal strengthening after 1976/77.While the response of tropical tropospheric temperature to ENSO remains largely unchanged,ENSO induces a stronger Walker circulation,a more pronounced equatorial Rossby wave,and an intensified extratropical Rossby wave train after 1976/77.These enhanced atmospheric processes,which directly reinforce the ENSO-TASM commencement relationship,are likely driven by interdecadal shifts in the structure and variance of ENSO.Post-1976/77,ENSO displays increased variance and a more coherent structure,with more pronounced sea surface temperature anomalies in the western North Pacific and subtropical North Pacific.Given the limitations of observational data,a 1000-year piControl experiment further confirms the role of ENSO variance changes in strengthening its influence on monsoon commencement.Our findings underscore the critical influence of evolving ENSO characteristics on climate anomalies such as monsoon commencement,offering potential insights for short-term climate prediction.

文摘Recent studies have suggested that rapid warming over the Mongolian Plateau(MP)may intensify extreme heat events(EHEs).However,the characteristics and mechanisms driving summer EHEs over the MP(MP-EHEs)remain unclear.This study explores the interannual variations in summer MP-EHEs and their relationship with the summer soil moisture over the Inner Tibetan Plateau(TP-SM).The results reveal that changes in the MP-EHEs are linked to descending atmospheric motion induced by a local high-pressure system over the MP region.Descending motion further results in decreased mid-tolow-level cloud cover and increased shortwave radiation,thereby warming the surface and triggering summer MP-EHEs.Further analysis indicates that increased TP-SM results in a greater latent heat flux,triggering a local secondary circulation that reinforces the local high-pressure system over the MP region,thus serving to promote the occurrence of summer MPEHEs.Additionally,model results from the linear baroclinic model(LBM)and CMIP6 further confirm that variations in summer TP-SM contribute to the occurrence of the MP-EHEs.

文摘The irrigation districts of northern China face issues such as water scarcity,inability to effectively utilize flood resources,and groundwater overexploitation.In view of these challenges,this study proposes a new concept of deep storage irrigation through flood resources utilization.However,whether deep storage irrigation can recharge deep soil moisture and sustain crop production still requires further study.A two-year field experiment was conducted on summer maize in the Guanzhong Plain with five soil wetting layer depths(T1:60 cm;T2:90 cm;T3:120 cm;T4:150 cm;T5:180 cm)and soil saturation moisture content as the irrigation upper limit.The results presented that the ranges of deep soil moisture recharge in the100–200 cm soil profile(SMS_(100–200))was 73.34–267.42 and 0–150.03 mm in 2021(wet season)and 2022(normal season).When the effective precipitation and irrigation exceeded 390 mm,the SMS_(100–200)began to linearly increase.The highest grain yield(GY)were observed at T2 and T3 treatments in 2021(11.44 t ha^(-1))and 2022(11.25 t ha^(-1)),respectively.The maize GY of T4 in 2021 and T5 in 2022 were only 3.9 and 5.7%lower than the maximize GY,respectively.However,the SMS_(100–200)for T4 and T5 were 2.4 and 5.0 times that of T2 and T3 treatments in 2021 and 2022,respectively.Overall,the further increase in irrigation amounts induced only a slight decrease in grain yield,but it significantly increased deep soil moisture recharge.Therefore,the deep storage irrigation breaks through the traditional idea of water-saving irrigation with limited water resources,which can be utilized as an effective alternative to address the issues of water scarcity,low flood resources utilization,and groundwater level declines in the irrigation districts of northern China.

文摘Based on reanalysis data from 1979 to 2021,this study explores the spatial distribution of the Southern Indian Ocean Dipole(SIOD)and its individual and synergistic effects with the El Niño-Southern Oscillation(ENSO)on summer precipitation in China.The inverse phase spatial distribution of sea surface temperature anomalies(SSTAs)in the southwest and northeast of the southern Indian Ocean is defined as the SIOD.Positive SIOD events(positive SSTAs in the southwest,negative SSTAs in the northeast)are associated with La Niña events(Central Pacific(CP)type),while negative SIOD events(negative SSTAs in the southwest,positive SSTAs in the northeast)are associated with El Niño events(Eastern Pacific(EP)type).Both SIOD and ENSO have certain impacts on summer precipitation in China.Precipitation in the Yangtze River basin decreases,while precipitation in southern China increases during pure positive SIOD(P_PSIOD)events.During pure negative SIOD(P_NSIOD)events,the changes in precipitation are exactly the opposite of those during P_PSIOD events,which may be due to differences in the cross-equatorial flow in the southern Indian Ocean,particularly in low-level Australian cross-equatorial flow.When positive SIOD and CP-type La Niña events occur simultaneously(PSIOD+La_Niña),precipitation increases in the Yangtze-Huaihe River basin,while it decreases in northern China.When negative SIOD and EP-type El Niño events occur simultaneously(NSIOD+El_Niño),precipitation in the Yangtze-Huaihe River basin is significantly lower than during P_NSIOD events.This is caused by differences in water vapor originating from the Pacific Ocean during different events.

文摘Predicting monsoon climate is one of the major endeavors in climate science and is becoming increasingly challenging due to global warming. The accuracy of monsoon seasonal predictions significantly impacts the lives of billions who depend on or are affected by monsoons, as it is essential for the water cycle, food security, ecology, disaster prevention, and the economy of monsoon regions. Given the extensive literature on Asian monsoon climate prediction, we limit our focus to reviewing the seasonal prediction and predictability of the Asian Summer Monsoon (ASM). However, much of this review is also relevant to monsoon predictions in other seasons and regions. Over the past two decades, considerable progress has been made in the seasonal forecasting of the ASM, driven by an enhanced understanding of the sources of predictability and the dynamics of seasonal variability, along with advanced development in sophisticated models and technologies. This review centers on advances in understanding the physical foundation for monsoon climate prediction (section 2), significant findings and insights into the primary and regional sources of predictability arising from feedback processes among various climate components (sections 3 and 4), the effects of global warming and external forcings on predictability (section 5), developments in seasonal prediction models and techniques (section 6), the challenges and limitations of monsoon climate prediction (section 7), and emerging research trends with suggestions for future directions (section 8). We hope this review will stimulate creative activities to enhance monsoon climate prediction.

文摘This study investigated the impacts of key parameters in CAM6's deep convection and cloud physics schemes on the simulation of summer-mean precipitation over East Asia through conducting perturbed parameter ensemble(PPE)experiments.Utilizing the experimental platform of CAM6,a suite of 128 PPE simulations spanning 19792014 were generated through simultaneously perturbing 12 selected parameters.Using EOF analysis,this study firstly extracted the first two leading modes of the precipitation simulation biases.The authors further pinpointed the most critical parameters that have the most influential effects on the precipitation simulation biases,through conducting generalized linear model analysis.The first leading mode of precipitation simulation biases is primarily influenced by parameters from the cloud physics scheme,including the linear effects of dcs and eii,and the nonlinear effect of rhminl*dcs.These parameters influence the simulated total precipitation(PrecT)mainly by altering the large-scale precipitation(PrecL).The second leading mode is predominantly governed by the convection scheme parameter dmpdz,reflecting a competition between the changes in convective precipitation(PrecC)and PrecL in response to variations in dmpdz.An increase in dmpdz induces decreased PrecC and increased PrecL in East Asia,and both of the changes collectively shape the ultimate PrecT response to the adjusted dmpdz.Lastly,it is noteworthy that the nonlinear effect due to the interaction among parameters warrants attention when concurrently adjusting multiple parameters,and the precipitation biases from the PPE simulations resemble those identified through EOF analysis on the AMIP simulations,implying our findings may provide potential reference for other AGCMs.

文摘The intensified kernel position effect is a common phenomenon in maize production under higher plant density,which limits crop productivity.Subsoiling is an effective agronomic practice for improving crop productivity.To clarify the effect of subsoiling before winter wheat on the kernel position effect of densely grown summer maize and its regulatory mechanism,field experiments were conducted during the 2020-2021 and 2021-2022 growing seasons using a split-plot design.The main plots included two tillage practices:conventional tillage practice(CT)and subsoiling before the sowing of winter wheat(SS);and the subplots consisted of three plant densities(D1-D3 at 6.0×10~4,7.5×10~4,and 9.0×10~4 plants ha-1).Compared with CT,SS alleviated the kernel position effect by increasing the weight ratio of inferior to superior kernels(WR)in the D2 and D3 treated plants.The higher WR of SS treated plants contributed largely to the improved flling of inferior kernels.Under the same plant density,SS signifcantly improved the root dry matter accumulation(DMA)and antioxidant enzyme activities(superoxide dismutase(SOD)and peroxidase(POD)),and it reduced the malondialdehyde(MDA)content,especially for the plants grown under higher plant densities.These results indicated that SS delayed the root senescence,which is associated with the reduced soil bulk density.In addition,compared with CT,SS increased the leaf chlorophyll content from 20 days after silking to physiological maturity and the post-silking leaf area duration,and it reduced the post-silking leaf chlorophyll reduction rate and leaf area reduction rate,indicating that the post-silking leaf senescence had been alleviated.Under the same plant density,the post-silking DMA of SS was obviously higher than that of CT,which was probably related to the improved leaf area duration and photosynthetic enzyme activities(phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase(PEPC)and Rubisco).The correlation analysis revealed that the main mechanism of SS in alleviating the kernel position effect of densely grown summer maize is as follows:SS delays the post-silking root-shoot senescence by regulating soil physical properties,and further improves the post-silking DMA and flling of inferior kernels,which ultimately alleviates the kernel position effect and improves grain yield.The results of this study provide new theoretical support for the promotion of summer maize yield by subsoiling before winter wheat.

文摘During the boreal summer,intraseasonal oscillations exhibit significant interannual variations in intensity over two key regions:the central-western equatorial Pacific(5°S-5°N,150°E-150°W)and the subtropical Northwestern Pacific(10°-20°N,130°E-175°W).The former is well-documented and considered to be influenced by the ENSO,while the latter has received comparatively less attention and is likely influenced by the Pacific Meridional Mode(PMM),as suggested by partial correlation analysis results.To elucidate the physical processes responsible for the enhanced(weakened)intraseasonal convection over the subtropical northwestern Pacific during warm(cold)PMM years,the authors employed a moisture budget analysis.The findings reveal that during warm PMM years,there is an increase in summer-mean moisture over the subtropical northwestern Pacific.This increase interacts with intensified vertical motion perturbations in the region,leading to greater vertical moisture advection in the lower troposphere and consequently resulting in convective instability.Such a process is pivotal in amplifying intraseasonal convection anomalies.The observational findings were further verified by model experiments forced by PMM-like sea surface temperature patterns.
