本文基于描写滞弹性大气静力适应过程的线性方程组,从波动频散关系、气团运动规律和能量转换的角度出发,研究了水平基流及其垂直切变对该模式大气静力适应过程的影响.构造四种水平基流垂直分布模型进行比较,分别为常数型、线性切变型、反气旋切变型和气旋切变型,得到结论:(1)具有重力波性质的波动是滞弹性大气静力适应过程中扰动能量传播的方式,当垂直折射指数大于零时,基本气流及其垂直切变的存在,不仅改变了波动频率的大小,而且改变波动传播的方向;(2)在静力适应过程中气块的运动轨迹呈椭圆形,水平基流及其垂直切变影响椭圆的扁率,同时也影响扰动物理量之间的偏振关系;(3)水平基流的垂直切变是扰动能量和水平基流能量发生转换的媒介,当存在垂直向上的动量输送时,正的垂直风切变对应扰动能量的衰减,水平基流能量的增加,负的垂直风切变对应扰动能量的增加,水平基流能量的衰减;(4)不同的风的垂直切变模型,对静力适应过程的影响不同;对于水平基流呈反气旋切变型和气旋切变型,扰动发展的波动垂直结构为,急流轴上方波动等相位线自下而上向西倾斜,急流轴下方波动等相位线自下而上向东倾斜,反之亦然.  相似文献

本文基于描述可压缩大气静力适应过程的线性模型,分别采用正交模法和WKBJ法,从波动响应的角度研究了风垂直切变对大气静力适应过程的影响.结合实际天气现象构造了四种风垂直切变模型,分别为垂直无切变的定常模型、类似锋面特征的线性切变模型、表征东风急流的反气旋式切变模型和类似西风急流的气旋式切变模型.分析了相应模型下静力适应过程中的波动特征及波能量演变规律.得到结论:(1)在定常模型中,破坏静力平衡的能量激发出四支两两成对的、传播性质类似声波和重力波的波动,波动能量在闭合系统假设下为守恒量;(2)风切变的存在改变了波动及其能量的传播特征,也改变了波动能量的守恒性;(3)在大气稳定层结下,若波动多普勒频率大于0且小于0.7倍的浮力振荡频率,则发展(衰亡)型波动的螺旋结构分别为:(a)在线性切变模型中,等相位线自下而上需向西(东)倾斜;(b)在反气旋式切变模型中,等相位线在急流轴上层自下而上需向西(东)倾斜,在急流轴下层自下而上需向东(西)倾斜;(c)在气旋式切变模型中,等相位线在急流轴上层自下而上需向东(西)倾斜,在急流轴下层自下而上需向西(东)倾斜;若波动多普勒频率大于0.7倍的浮力振荡频率,则情形相反.  相似文献

为了研究大气静力平衡适应过程的本质,利用波动理论和能量转换角度,分别对完全可压缩的等温大气模型、滞弹近似下的等温大气模型和层结中性大气模型进行研究比较.结果表明:大气静力平衡适应过程的本质是声波和混合声重力波对扰动能量的频散过程,滞弹近似模型和层结中性模型均不能完全描述此适应过程;在波动假设下,此三类大气模型中扰动物理量之间的偏振关系同波动的性质有关,气团的运动方程均为椭圆方程,声波和混合声重力波对气团运动的作用差异较显著.
大气静力平衡适应过程中扰动能量以有效势能、有效弹性势能、动能或波动能量的形式存在并相互转换;扰动有效势能与其他形式能量之间的转换与混合声重力波或者重力内波有关,扰动有效弹性势能与其他形式能量之间的转换与声波有关.在完全可压缩的等温大气模型中,扰动有效势能增加1个单位,其中69.9%来自扰动垂直动能,其余30.1%来自扰动有效弹性势能.  相似文献

利用非对称波分量分解和小波分析的方法,对准平衡动力模型下非对称强飓风内中尺度波动的空间结构和时间序列特征进行分析.结果表明,平衡流场中1波扰动占主要地位且具有涡旋Rossby波的典型结构特征,准平衡流各波数下扰动的空间分布反映了中尺度波动的混合性质;模式大气和准平衡垂直运动的全局功率谱中,超过信度检验的强波动信号中不仅包含分别表征重力波和涡旋Rossby波的高频和低频波动信号,还存在表征具有物理性质不可分特性的混合涡旋Rossby-重力波的中频波动.混合波的出现建立了不同频段波动之间的能量交换通道,其信号的变化对飓风系统的强弱变化具有一定的指示作用.非平衡垂直运动的波动强信号则主要集中在高频和低频区域,反映了在飓风强度变化情况下,与高频重力波有关的快波调整过程所引起的垂直扰动的振荡和传播.强垂直风切变对飓风内中尺度波动的切向和径向传播具有重要影响,当环境垂直风切变很强时,准平衡1波扰动在径向和切向方向上均呈"驻波"形态,随着环境垂直风切变的减弱,1波扰动以混合波波速逆基本气流传播.  相似文献

东亚副热带高空急流强度变化和天气气候密切相关,本文利用WRF模式输出的高时空分辨率模拟资料研究了东亚副热带高空急流区的中尺度扰动特征,并结合动力学理论,揭示了急流区中尺度扰动产生的可能机制.研究表明,急流轴南侧更容易出现水平尺度为几十公里的高频扰动,这些扰动的时空分布具有波动特征.对高空急流区中出现中尺度扰动区域的拉格朗日Rossby数、Richardson数以及绝对涡度的计算发现,高空急流轴南侧中尺度扰动出现的物理机制与非地转平衡流的不稳定发展有关,并且高空急流强度的大尺度整体变化与急流区中尺度扰动变化的累积效应有关.因此,开展高空急流强度变化规律研究不能忽视其内部中尺度动力过程的作用.  相似文献

南极绕极流(Antarctic Circumpolar Current——ACC)对风应力强迫存在两种响应,即正压过程的即时响应与斜压过程的延时响应.主要关注南极绕极流的斜压不稳定机制,即纬向风应力的增强导致南大洋等密面斜率加大,平均流更趋于斜压不稳定;斜压不稳定产生中尺度涡,使得平均流势能向涡旋能量(势能和动能)转化,造成了ACC体积输运在时间上滞后两年的显著减弱.ACC输运与纬向风应力的这种滞后反相关关系可以很好地解释ACC体积输运在近20a保持基本稳定的现象.  相似文献

黑潮延伸体(Kuroshio Extension,KE)海域附近具有强烈的大气斜压性可显著影响北太平洋上空风暴轴异常,因而有必要研究KE海区附近斜压性的特征和维持机制.本文设计数值试验并结合高分辨率ERA-Interim资料研究了大气斜压性对KE年代际海温变率模态(KEDV-induced SSTA,Kuroshio Extension Decadal variability SSTA)中的中尺度海洋锋(KEDV-induced Meso-scale SST Front,KMSTF)的响应特征和维持机制.研究发现,表层斜压性对KMSTF的响应分布相对KMSTF经向梯度的分布偏南,平流过程的响应起主要作用.表层感热通量的响应相对KMSTF分布偏北,表层温度的响应分布与KMSTF分布的位相差异是导致其偏北分布的主要原因.积云对流过程、垂直热量输送和月内尺度扰动向极热量输送均可削弱表层斜压性,而感热通量加热可加强表层斜压性.研究对流层斜压性的特征发现,斜压大值随高度向北移动,极值在边界层顶附近,积云动量再分配影响的月内尺度扰动通量经向辐合有一定的贡献.同时,相对KMSTF暖海温异常偏南分布的低SLP(Surface Level Pressure)可引发经圈平面内次级环流,并将月内尺度扰动热量、水汽和动量向高纬度输送,从而引起斜压性随高度向北分布并增强斜压性.此外还发现,积云对流过程引发的非绝热加热通过扰动热力作用使高层急流向北偏移.  相似文献

使用中尺度数值模式WRF-ARW,针对2010年6月发生在中国东北地区一例伴随对流层高空西风急流(位于~9 km高度)演变过程出现的平流层重力波活动特征开展了数值模拟. 事件发生期间,对流层区域环流处在一个东北冷涡系统的控制之下. 模拟结果再现了该东北冷涡的发展和维持过程,以及与之相伴的高空急流的特征. 模拟结果揭示出在急流区域上空的平流层中存在显著重力波活动现象. 分析结果显示,重力波活动与急流存在紧密联系,在水平方向上,重力波呈显著的二维结构,出现在急流出口区上部并逆背景流向西传播. 功率谱分析结果表明盛行波动具有~700 km水平尺度、9~12 h时间尺度以及4~5 km垂直波长. 由于急流的存在,造成其与平流层中下部之间存在显著的水平风速垂直切变,与切变相伴的耗散使得上传的重力波动量通量数值随着高度升高而递减. 同时,在18~20 km高度间出现的西风-东风转换带极大地抑制了波动在垂直方向的传播,形成显著动量通量沉积效应. 估算结果表明,在11~20 km高度之间,这种效应的整体作用相当于对该层背景流施加强度为0.86 m·s-1·day-1的动力阻曳.  相似文献

Measurements of turbulent fluctuations of horizontal and vertical components of velocity, salinity and suspended particulate matter are presented. Turbulent Prandtl numbers are found to increase with stratification and to become larger than 1. Consequently, the vertical turbulent mass transport is suppressed by buoyancy forces, before the turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) and vertical turbulent momentum exchange are inhibited. With increasing stratification, the buoyancy fluxes do not cease, instead they become countergradient. We find that buoyantly driven motions play an active role in the transfer of mass. This is in agreement with trends derived from Monin–Obukhov scaling. For positive Richardson flux numbers (Ri f ), the log velocity profile in the near-bed layer requires correction with a drag reduction. For negative Ri f , the log velocity profile should be corrected with a drag increase, with increasing |Ri f |. This highlights the active role played by buoyancy in momentum transfer and the production of TKE. However, the data do not appear to entirely follow Monin–Obukhov scaling. This is consistent with the notion that the turbulence field is not in equilibrium. The large stratification results in the decay of turbulence and countergradient buoyancy fluxes act to restore equilibrium in the energy budget. This implies that there is a finite adjustment timescale of the turbulence field to changes in velocity shear and density stratification. The energy transfers associated with the source and sink function of the buoyancy flux can be modeled with the concept of total turbulent energy.  相似文献

We perform eddy-permitting to eddy-resolving simulations of the Skagerrak/northern North Sea with a terrain-following numerical ocean model. We demonstrate that realistic representations of freshwater input are not required when the focus is on modelling mesoscale structures such as meanders and eddies. To arrive at this conclusion, we analyze the results using a recently developed energy diagnostic scheme to study the sensitivity to realistic representations of the lateral freshwater flux provided to the area from the Baltic Sea and by the major rivers. The scheme is suitable for analysis of growth of instabilities, and it has four basic instability processes prominent. We recognize both horizontal and vertical shear instabilities. There are two processes where average potential energy is converted to eddy kinetic energy, and they are related to the mean gradient in surface elevation and the mean lateral density gradient, respectively. The latter process is known as frontal instability. We demonstrate that the change in the eddy kinetic energy field is small, despite the large variations in the hydrographic properties from experiment to experiment. Moreover, generation of eddy activity appears at the same locations and with approximately the same strength regardless of actual representations of freshwater input. Furthermore, we find that vertical shear instability dominates the energy conversion processes in the Norwegian Coastal Current. Finally, we find that the areas off the northwest coast of Denmark recognized with enhanced eddy kinetic energy level is not caused by instability processes but eddy–eddy interaction rooted in variations in the sea level.  相似文献

Alluvial channels arise through the interaction between morphology, hydraulics, and sediment transport, known as the ‘fluvial trinity’. Over relatively short timescales where climate and geology are fixed but discharge and sediment supply may vary, this process facilitates adjustments towards steady state, where the system oscillates around a mean condition. The relationship between changes in conditions and geomorphic response may be highly complex and nonlinear, especially in systems with multiple modes of adjustment. This study examines the adjustment of an erodible channel with fixed banks and a widely graded sediment mixture to successive increases in discharge. With each increase in discharge, components of the fluvial trinity adjusted towards a steady state. Particularly at relatively low discharges, adjustments were controlled by intrinsic thresholds and highlighted important morphodynamic processes. Notably, there was a strong interplay between channel morphology and sediment transport, and an effect whereby larger-than-average grains controlled channel deformation. These two processes occurred at the bar scale and were highly spatialised, which has two important implications: (1) reach-averaged representations of process provide only partial insight into morphodynamics; and (2) models of rivers that suppress these process feedbacks and size-dependent transport may not replicate morphodynamics that typically occur in field conditions. The experiments provide quantitative evidence for conceptual models describing exponential approaches towards steady state and the potential for transiency if disturbance frequency exceeds the recovery time. They also highlight how in natural rivers, particularly those with greater degrees of freedom for adjustment (notably, lateral adjustment and meandering), continuous changes in discharge may lead to nonlinear rather than steady-state behaviour. In these settings, more holistic analytical frameworks that embrace different aspects of the system are critical in understanding the direction, magnitude and timing of channel adjustments.  相似文献

Summary According to the symmetric formulation of the zonal kinetic energy equation, positive generations arise through countergradient transports of angular momentum. Five years of northern hemispheric upper air data are used to investigate two of the terms in the equation, which represent the effects of the transport, by the mean general circulation cells, of the angular momentum associated with the earth's rotation. These two -generation terms do not usually appear in the more traditional form of the conservation equation, and results of their evaluation have not appeared previously. It is found that positive generation largely dominates in the -term involving horizontal (meridional) transports of angular momentum, and negative generation in the -term involving vertical transport. In fall and particularly winter, both terms are responsible for very large amounts of generation of opposing sign for the whole atmosphere.The five years of data are also used to evaluate the balance of zonal kinetic energy implied by the symmetric equation in northern hemispheric polar caps of various pressure thicknesses. The vertical processes involved are not directly measured but rather are obtained from observed horizontal motions through use of continuity of mass and angular momentum requirements. Possible reasons for the lack of a perfect balance are offered, but in any case the residuals are generally not large enough to be of too much concern. Vertical eddies are found to play an important role in the balance of zonal kinetic energy. A study of the balance in the upper half of the atmosphere reveals that in spring the vertical eddies (summed for all scales) must tranport angular momentum and zonal kinetic energy upward toward the jet in order to counter the net effect of the mean cells in reducing the zonal kinetic energy in this volume. In the fall however, there is a dramatic change in the direction in which these vertical eddies act, as they now remove zonal kineticenergy from the upper half of the atmosphere in this season.The research reported in this paper was sponsored by the U.S. National Science Foundation under Grant No. GA-1310X.  相似文献

Summary The influence of surface skin friction and a specific type of heating on the stability of baroclinic waves in a two-level, quasi-geostrophic model is investigated. It is found that the effect of friction alone changes the neutral stability curve in such a way that a broader band of wavelengths are unstable for a given value of the vertical windshear. The neutral stability curve is independent of the intensity of friction in this case. The effect of heating is to make all waves longer than a certain critical wave length unstable, but the amplification rate is very small for large values of the wavelength. The combined effect of friction and heating will in general tend to stabilize the waves. The amplification rate is investigated in all cases.Numerical integrations of the linearized equations show that the flow in the stable case will reach a steady state characterized by vanishing dissipation and heat transport, but with a certain wave length dependent ratio between the kinetic energy of the vertical shear flow and the vertical mean flow. It is shown that this ratio can be predicted from the steady state solutions in the adiabatic, frictionless case. A comparison is made between the predictions of the energetics of the waves in the model and observational studies.Research supported by the Section on Atmospheric Sciences, National Science Foundation, GP-2561.Contribution No. 99 from the Department of Meteorology and Oceanography, University of Michigan.  相似文献
