利用ERA-Interim再分析资料分析了夏秋季西北太平洋季风槽的气候特征以及季节和年际变化特征及其对西北太平洋热带气旋和台风(TCs)生成大尺度环境因子的影响。研究结果表明了西北太平洋季风槽有很明显的季节变化,在6~7月,季风槽和强对流活动区在5°N~15°N的南海和西北太平洋西侧上空,并逐渐东伸;到了8~9月,季风槽和强对流活动区向北移动、并向东扩展,一般位于10°N~20°N的南海和西北太平洋西侧、中部上空,有的年份可东伸到西北太平洋东侧,强度加强;到了10~11月,季风槽迅速减弱,并成为涡旋,强对流活动区也向南移和向西收缩。同时,研究还表明了西北太平洋季风槽有明显的年际变化。在季风槽强的年份,季风槽和强对流活动区可以从南海经西北太平洋西侧和中部东伸到西北太平洋的东侧上空;而在季风槽弱的年份,季风槽和强对流活动区主要位于南海和西北太平洋西侧和中部上空,季风槽强度的年际变化对它的季节变化也有重要影响。此外,研究还表明了随着季风槽的季节和年际变化,西北太平洋TCs生成的大尺度环境因子分布也发生很明显的变化。 相似文献

The intraseasonal oscillation(ISO) of the South China Sea(SCS, 105-120°E, 5-20°N) convection and its influences on the genesis and track of the western North Pacific(WNP) tropical cyclones(TCs) were explored, based on the daily average of NCEP/NCAR reanalysis data, the OLR data and the western North Pacific tropical cyclone best-track data from 1979 to 2008. The mechanism of the influences of ISO on TC movement and the corresponding large-scale circulation were discussed by a trajectory model. It was found as follows.(1) During the SCS summer monsoon, the SCS convection exhibits the ISO features with active phases alternating with inactive phases. The monsoon circulation patterns are significantly different during these two phases. When the SCS convection is active(inactive), the SCS-WNP monsoon trough stretches eastward(retreats westward) due to the activity(inactivity) of SCS monsoon, and the WNP subtropical high retreats eastward(stretches westward), which enhances(suppresses) the monsoon circulation.(2) The amount of TC genesis in the active phase is much more than that in the inactive phase. A majority of TCs form west of 135 °E during the active phases but east of 135 °E in the inactive phases.(3) The TCs entering the area west of 135 °E and south of 25 °N would move straight into the SCS in the active phase, or recurve northward in the inactive phase.(4) Simulation results show that the steering flow associated with the active(inactive)phases is in favor of straight-moving(recurving) TCs. Meanwhile, the impacts of the locations of TC genesis on the characteristics of TC track cannot be ignored. TCs that occurred father westward are more likely to move straight into the SCS region. 相似文献

Summary In this study, Principal Component Analysis (PCA) has been used to identify the major modes of the outgoing long-wave radiation
data for the period (1979–2002) during the Indian monsoon period (June–September), using seasonal mean values over the Indian
region covering 143 grid points (5° N–35° N and 70° E–95° E at 2.5° Longitude–Latitude intervals. The five principal components
explain up to 98.0% of the total variance. The first principal component explains 60% of the total variance with a pronounced
variation in the outgoing long-wave radiation over the region 10° N to 25° N. It appears that the major reason for the monsoon
variability is the intensity and associated fluctuations in the two major semi-permanent seasonal systems. This is largely
indicative of strong seasonal shift of the major area of cloudiness associated with convergence zone. The second principal
component explaining 20% of the total variance exhibits higher positive component loadings along 25° N and east of 80° E.
The possible reason for this could be the synoptic systems such as monsoon depression/lows over the north bay and trough/vortices
off the west-coast in the Arabian sea. 相似文献

Summary By analyzing 12-year (1979–1990) 200 hPa wind data from National Centers for Environmental Prediction-National Center for
Atmospheric Research reanalysis, we demonstrate that the intraseasonal time scale (30–60 days) variability of the Tropical
Easterly Jet (TEJ) reported in individual case studies occurs during most years. In the entrance region (east of ∼70° E),
axis of the TEJ at 200 hPa is found along the near equatorial latitudes during monsoon onset/monsoon revivals and propagates
northward as the monsoon advances over India. This axis is found along ∼5° N and ∼15° N during active monsoon and break monsoon
conditions respectively. Examination of the European Centre for Medium Range Weather Forecasts reanalysis wind data also confirms
the northward propagation of the TEJ on intraseasonal time scales.
During the intraseasonal northward propagations, axis of the TEJ is found about 10°–15° latitudes south of the well-known
intraseasonally northward propagating monsoon convective belts. Because of this 10°–15° displacement, axis of the TEJ arrives
over a location about two weeks after the arrival of the monsoon convection. Systematic shifting of the locations by convection,
low level monsoon flow and TEJ in a collective way during different phases of the monsoon suggests that they all may be related. 相似文献

Summary Interannual variations of the summer monsoon onset over the South China Sea (SCS) have been studied using data from over
seventeen years (1979–1995) of NMC global analysis and of Outgoing Longwave Radiation (OLR) observed with NOAA polar-orbitting
satellites. It was found that the summer monsoon onset in the SCS occurs abruptly with a sudden change of zonal wind direction
from easterly to westerly and an exploding development of deep convection in the whole SCS region in the middle of May.
Based on the criteria defined in this paper for the SCS summer monsoon onset, the average onset date over the SCS from 1979
to 1995 is around the fourth pentad of May. The airflow and general circulation over the SCS changes dramatically after the
onset. The ridge of the subtropical high in the western Pacific in the lower troposphere weakens and retreats eastward from
the SCS region with an establishment of westerly winds over the whole region. During the SCS monsoon onset, the most direct
impact in the vicinity of the SCS are the equatorial westerlies in the Bay of Bengal through their eastward extension and
northward movement. An indirect influence on the SCS onset is also caused by the enhancement of the Somali cross-equatorial
flow and the vanishing Arabian High over the sea; the latter may be a signal for the SCS onset.
There are quite significant interannual variations in the SCS onset. In the years of a delayed onset, the most profound feature
is that the easterly winds stay longer in the SCS than on average. Deep convection activities are suppressed. The direct cause
is the abnormal existence of the western Pacific subtropical high over the SCS region. Moreover, compared to the average,
the equatorial westerlies in the Bay of Bengal are also weaker in the years of a delayed onset. No significant changes for
the cross-equatorial flow at 105 °E are observed for these years. It has also been found that the interannual variations of
the SCS onset are closely related with the ENSO events. In the years of a delay, the Walker circulation is weaker, and the
sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies in the western Pacific are negative.

Summary The present study examines the long term trend in sea surface temperatures (SSTs) of the Arabian Sea, Bay of Bengal and Equatorial
South India Ocean in the context of global warming for the period 1901–2002 and for a subset period 1971–2002. An attempt
has also been made to identify the relationship between SST variations over three different ocean areas, and All-India and
homogeneous region summer monsoon rainfall variability, including the role of El-Ni?o/Southern Oscillation (ENSO). Annual
sea surface temperatures of the Arabian Sea, Bay of Bengal and Equatorial South India Ocean show a significant warming trend
of 0.7 °C, 0.6 °C and 0.5 °C per hundred years, respectively, and a relatively accelerated warming of 0.16 °C, 0.14 °C and
0.14 °C per decade during the 1971–2002 period.
There is a positive and statistically significant relationship between SSTs over the Arabian Sea from the preceding November
to the current February, and Indian monsoon rainfall during the period 1901–2002. The correlation coefficient increases from
October and peaks in December, decreasing from February to September. This significant relationship is also found in the recent
period 1971–2002, whereas, during 1901–70, the relationship is not significant. On the seasonal scale, Arabian Sea winter
SSTs are positively and significantly correlated with Indian monsoon rainfall, while spring SSTs have no significant positive
relationship. Nino3 spring SSTs have a negative significant relationship with Indian monsoon rainfall and it is postulated
that there is a combined effect of Nino3 and Arabian Sea SSTs on Indian monsoon. If the Nino3 SST effect is removed, the spring
SSTs over the Arabian Sea also have a significant relationship with monsoon rainfall. Similarly, the Bay of Bengal and Equatorial
South Indian Ocean spring SSTs are significantly and positively correlated with Indian monsoon rainfall after removing the
Nino3 effect, and correlation values are more pronounced than for the Arabian Sea.

A typical active–break cycle of the Asian summer monsoon is taken as beginning with maximum SST (pentad 0) over the north
Bay of Bengal when the oceans to its west and east from longitude 40°–160°E, and between latitudes 10° and 25°N (area A) also
has maximum SST. During this pentad the recently found “Cold Pool” of the Bay of Bengal (between latitudes 3°N and 10°N) has
its minimum SST. An area of convection takes genesis over the Bay of Bengal immediately after pentad 0 in the zone of large
SST gradient north of the Cold Pool and it pulls the monsoon Low Level Jetstream (LLJ) through peninsular India. Convection
and the LLJ westerlies then spread to the western Pacific Ocean during pentads 1–4 taken as the active phase of the monsoon
during which convection and LLJ have grown in a positive feed back process. The cyclonic vorticity to the north of the LLJ
axis is hypothesized to act as a flywheel maintaining the convection during the long active phase against the dissipating
effect of atmospheric stabilization by each short spell of deep convection. By the end of pentad 4 the SST over area A has
cooled and the convection weakens there, when the LLJ turns clockwise over the Arabian Sea and flows close to the equator
in the Indian ocean. A band of convection develops at pentad 5 between the equator and latitude 10°S over the Indian ocean
and it is nourished by the cyclonic vorticity of the LLJ now near the equator and the moisture supply through it. This is
taken as the break monsoon phase lasting for about three to four pentads beginning from pentad 5 of a composite active–break
cycle of 40 day duration. With reduced wind and convection over the area A during the break phase, solar radiation and light
winds make the SST there warm rapidly and a new active–break cycle begins. SST, convection, LLJ and the net heat flux at the
ocean surface have important roles in this new way of looking at the active–break cycle as a coupled ocean–atmosphere phenomenon. 相似文献

印度洋海盆增暖及ENSO对西北太平洋热带气旋活动的影响 总被引：2，自引：1，他引：1
本文主要分析1950～2010年间印度洋海盆增暖和西北太平洋热带气旋(TC)活动的关系, 并与ENSO对西北太平洋TC活动的影响相比较, 结果表明:印度洋海盆异常增暖与西北太平洋地区总TC生成年频数尤其是弱TC相关较好, 印度洋海盆异常增暖, 西北太平洋地区为异常的反气旋, 对流抑制, 降水偏少, 不利于TC的生成, 反之亦然。而ENSO对西北太平洋热带气旋的影响, 主要体现在对强TC的年生成频数的影响, El Ni?o 发展年, 季风槽加深东伸, TC生成位置偏东, 由于TC在海洋上的生命史较长, TC的平均强度偏强, 因而强TC年生成频数偏多;La Ni?a发展年, 季风槽较浅, TC生成位置偏西, TC的平均强度偏弱, 强TC年生成频数偏少。但是ENSO指数与强TC年频数的相关有着年代际的变化, 在1950～1969年和1990～2009年间, ENSO指数和强TC年频数相关很好, 分别为0.532和0.687, 而在1970～1989这二十年间, 两者相关很弱, 只有0.081。 相似文献

2010年西北太平洋与南海热带气旋活动异常的成因分析 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
利用中国气象局热带气旋（TC）资料、NCEP/NCAR 再分析资料和美国 NOAA 向外长波辐射（OLR）等资料,分析了2010年西北太平洋（WNP）及南海（SCS）热带气旋活动异常的可能成因,讨论了同期大气环流配置和海温外强迫对TC生成和登陆的动力和热力条件的影响。结果表明,2010年生成TC频数明显偏少,生成源地显著偏西,而登陆TC频数与常年持平。导致7～10月TC频数明显偏少的大尺度环境场特征为：副热带高压较常年异常偏强、西伸脊点偏西,季风槽位置异常偏西,弱垂直风切变带位置也较常年偏西且范围偏小,南亚高压异常偏强,贝加尔湖附近对流层低高层均为反气旋距平环流,这些关键环流因子的特征和配置都不利于 TC 在WNP的东部生成。影响TC活动的外强迫场特征为：2010年热带太平洋经历了El Ni?o事件于春末夏初消亡、La Ni?a事件于7月形成的转换;7～10月,WNP海表温度维持正距平,140°E以东为负距平且对流活动受到抑制;暖池次表层海温异常偏暖,对应上空850 hPa为东风距平,有利于季风槽偏西和TC在WNP的西北侧海域生成。WNP海表温度和暖池次表层海温的特征是2010年TC生成频数偏少、生成源地异常偏西的重要外强迫信号。有利于7～10月热带气旋西行和登陆的500 hPa风场特征为：北太平洋为反气旋环流距平,其南侧为东风异常,该东风异常南缘可到25°N,并向西扩展至中国大陆地区;南海和西北太平洋地区15°N以南的低纬也为东风异常;在这样的风场分布型下,TC容易受偏东气流引导西行并登陆我国沿海地区。这是2010年生成TC偏少但登陆TC并不少的重要环流条件。 相似文献

首先评估了GFDL模式对西北太平洋热带气旋(TC)环境热力及动力因子的模拟性能,再利用夏威夷大学国际太平洋研究中心高分辨率区域气候模式( IPRC-RegCM),进行降尺度研究西北太平洋TC活动特征,在此基础上预估21世纪全球变暖背景下(A1B)西北太平洋TC活动的主要特点.结果显示,在西北太平洋TC活动区,GFDL控制试验的海平面温度(SST)比ERSST偏低.与NCEP/NCAR再分析资料相比,GFDL模拟的1980-1999年大尺度环流平均场表现为:副高脊线平均位置近乎一致,西伸脊点偏东,强度偏弱,面积偏小；季风槽槽线的范围偏小,强度偏弱；水平风垂直切变值在南海及菲律宾群岛海域偏小,而在160°E～170°W的20°N以南偏强.与NCEP/NCAR强迫的模拟结果相比,GFDL强迫得到的TC源地频数在南海偏少,菲律宾群岛以东海域偏多,两者的季节及年际变化特征相似.路径频数在南海北部和我国华南沿岸显著偏多.AlB情景下,西北太平洋TC生成数目将增加一倍,生成源地偏北且同时向东部洋而扩展,路径频数增多主要发生在20°N以北的中东部洋面上,移经西北太平洋西部的TC频数减少,由此影响我国的TC将减少.TC频数的季节分布发生较大变化,最多的月份在10月.TC平均强度增强,最大强度在10月增加最多,这与10月SST的增加和环境风切变的减小均为最大值有密切的关系. 相似文献

Tropical cyclone genesis frequency over the western North Pacific simulated in medium-resolution coupled general circulation models 总被引：4，自引：0，他引：4
This study examines the tropical cyclone (TC) genesis frequency over the western North Pacific simulated in atmosphere–ocean
coupled general circulation models from the World Climate Research Programme’s Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase
3. We first evaluate performances of eight models with atmospheric horizontal resolution of T63 or T106 by analyzing their
daily-mean atmospheric outputs of twentieth-century climate simulations available from the Program for Climate Model Diagnosis
and Intercomparison database. The genesis frequency is validated against the best-track data issued by the Japan Meteorological
Agency. Five of the eight models reproduce realistic horizontal distribution of the TC genesis with a large fraction over
the 10°–20°N, 120°–150°E area. These five high-performance models also realistically simulate the summer–winter contrast of
the frequency. However, detailed seasonal march is slightly unrealistic; four of the models overestimate the frequency in
the early season (May–June) while all of them underestimate the frequency in the mature season (July–September). Reasons for
these biases in the seasonal march for the five high-performance models are discussed using the TC genesis potential (GP)
index proposed by Emanuel and Nolan (in Am Meteor Soc, pp 240–241, 2004). The simulated GP has seasonal biases consistent with those of the TC genesis frequency. For all five models, the seasonal
biases in GP are consistent with those in environmental lower-tropospheric vorticity, vertical wind shear, and relative humidity,
which can be attributed to the simulated behavior of monsoon trough. The observed trough migrates northward from the equatorial
region to reach the 10°–20°N latitudinal band during the mature season and contributes to the TC frequency maximum, whereas
the simulated trough migrates northward too rapidly and reaches this latitude band in the early season, leading to the overestimation
of the TC genesis frequency. In the mature season, the simulated trough reaches as far as 15°–25°N, accompanied by a strong
vertical shear south of the trough, providing an unfavorable condition for TC genesis. It is concluded that an adequate simulation
of the monsoon trough behavior is essential for a better reproduction of the TC frequency seasonal march. 相似文献

Boreal summer quasi-monthly oscillation in the global tropics 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Bin Wang Peter Webster Kazuyoshi Kikuchi Tetsuzo Yasunari Yanjun Qi 《Climate Dynamics》2006,27(7-8):661-675
The boreal summer intraseasonal oscillation (ISO) in the global tropics is documented here using a 7-year suite (1998–2004) of satellite measurements. A composite scenario was made of 28 selected events with reference to the oscillation in the eastern equatorial Indian Ocean (EIO), where the oscillation is most regular and its intensity is indicative of the strength of the subsequent northward propagation. The average oscillation period is about 32 days, and this quasi-monthly oscillation (QMO) is primarily confined to the tropical Indian and Pacific Oceans. Topics that were investigated are the partition of convective versus stratiform clouds, the vertical structure of precipitation rates, and the evolution of cloud types during the initial organization and the development of intraseasonal convective anomalies in the central Indian Ocean. During the initiation of the convective anomalies, the stratiform and convective rains have comparable rates; the prevailing cloud type experiences a trimodal evolution from shallow to deep convection, and finally to anvil and extended stratiform clouds. A major northwest/southeast-slanted rainband forms as the equatorial rainfall anomalies reach Sumatra, and the rainband subsequently propagates northeastward into the west Pacific Ocean. The enhanced precipitation in the west Pacific then rapidly traverses the Pacific along the Intertropical Convergence Zone, meanwhile migrating northward to the Philippine Sea. A seesaw teleconnection in rainfall anomalies is found between the southern Bay of Bengal (5–15°N, 80–100°E) and the eastern Pacific (5–15°N, 85–105°W). Local sea-surface temperature (SST)-rainfall anomalies display a negative simultaneous correlation in the off-equatorial regions but a zero correlation (quadrature phase relationship) near the equator. We propose that atmosphere–ocean interaction and the vertical monsoon easterly shear are important contributors to the northeastward propagation component of the intraseasonal rainband. The observed evidence presented here provides critical information for validating the numerical models, and it supports the self-induction mechanism theory for maintenance of the boreal summer ISO. 相似文献

孟加拉湾西南季风与南海热带季风季节内振荡特征的比较 总被引：4，自引：2，他引：2
采用美国国家环境预报中心的向外长波辐射和风场资料及日本气象厅的降水资料,用30-60d滤波后的夏季风指数在孟加拉湾和南海的区域平均值分别代表孟加拉湾西南季风和南海热带季风季节内振荡,对两支季风的季节内振荡特征进行比较分析,发现孟加拉湾西南季风的季节内振荡和南海热带季风的季节内振荡在夏季风期间(5-10月)都有约3次半的波动.夏季风期间,在阿拉伯海-西太平洋纬带上,夏季风的季节内振荡有4次从阿拉伯海的东传和3次从西太平洋的西传,其中7月后东传可直达西太平洋.孟加拉湾和南海在夏季风期间都有4次季节内振荡的经向传播,但孟加拉湾在约15°N以南为季节内振荡从热带东印度洋的北传,在约15°N以北则为副热带季风季节内振荡的南传;而在南海则是4次季节内振荡从热带的北传.在以孟加拉湾西南季风季节内振荡和南海热带季风季节内振荡分别划分的6个位相中,都存在1-3位相和4-6位相中低频对流、环流形势相反的特征,这是由热带东印度洋季节内振荡的东传和北传所致.热带印度洋季节内振荡沿西南-东北向经过约14d传到孟加拉湾,激发了孟加拉湾西南季风季节内振荡的东传,经过约6d到达南海,激发了南海热带季风季节内振荡的北传,经过约25d到达华南,形成热带印度洋季节内振荡向华南的经纬向接力传播(45d).孟加拉湾西南季风季节内振荡所影响的降水主要是在20°N以南的热带雨带随低频对流的东移而东移;而南海热带季风季节内振荡所影响的降水除了这种热带雨带随低频对流的东移外,还有在20°N以北的东亚副热带地区存在雨带随南海低频对流的北移而北移. 相似文献

本文利用30~60天带通滤波资料, 考察了不同季节印度洋—西太平洋区域对流活动季节内尺度变率的主要模态, 发现在不同季节赤道东印度洋(5°S~10°N, 70°E~100°E)和西北太平洋(5°N~20°N, 110°E~160°E)对流活动均存在反相变化的关系, 将之称为季节内尺度的印度洋—西太平洋对流涛动(Indo-West Pacific Convection Oscillation), 简称IPCO。对IPCO两极子区域对流活动进行超前滞后相关分析, 发现IPCO事件形成—发展—消亡的生命周期是由对流活动季节内振荡及其传播造成的。对流扰动首先在赤道中西印度洋形成, 随后逐渐向东发展变强, 在其继续变强的过程中将分两支传播:一支由赤道印度洋向北传播, 至印度半岛南部后逐渐减弱消失;另一支沿赤道继续东传, 在海洋大陆受到抑制, 快速越过海洋大陆到达赤道西太平洋后又开始发展变强, 随后北传至西北太平洋区域逐渐减弱, 最终至我国长江流域中下游到日本区域消失。将这一过程划分为8个位相, 详细分析了不同位相对应的环流场和降水场特征, 最后给出了IPCO事件演化示意图。 相似文献

热带气旋潜势指数是定量表征影响热带气旋生成的大尺度环境条件指标,在不能显式模拟热带气旋的气候系统模式中,常被作为热带气旋的代用指标。基于中国科学院大气物理研究所大气科学和地球流体力学数值模拟国家重点实验室发展的AGCM GAMIL2.0模式在历史海温驱动下的积分结果,评估了该模式对热带气旋潜势气候态、季节循环和年际变率的模拟能力。并分别从影响热带气旋潜势分布的热力因子(相对湿度、热带气旋最大风速)和动力因子(垂直风切变、绝对涡度、垂直抬升速度)的角度,讨论了造成热带气旋潜势模拟误差的原因。结果表明,在西北太平洋地区,模式能够合理再现热带气旋潜势的气候态分布,但由于GAMIL2.0模拟的相对湿度偏大且向东延伸,造成了热带气旋潜势大值区较之再分析资料偏大且偏东10°。由于GAMIL2.0模拟的季风槽位置偏北偏强,导致模拟的热带气旋潜势季节循环北进偏早而南退偏晚。在年际变化方面,GAMIL2.0能合理模拟出热带气旋潜势在ENSO正负位相东西反向的变化特征,但位于20°—30°N的加强和减弱区的分界线偏西,这与模拟的垂直速度和相对湿度的模拟误差有关,进一步分析表明,这是由于模拟中ENSO事件期间的西北太平洋异常上升中心比观测偏西且偏强造成的。 相似文献

Analysis of the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Microwave Imager (TMI) data for the period 1998–2007 reveals large
subseasonal fluctuations in sea surface temperature (SST) of the South China Sea during the summer monsoon onset. These subseasonal
SST changes are closely related to surface heat flux anomalies induced by surface wind and cloud changes in association with
the summer monsoon onset. The SST changes feed back on the atmosphere by modifying the atmospheric instability. The results
suggest that the South China Sea summer monsoon onset involves ocean–atmosphere coupling on subseasonal timescales. While
the SST response to surface heat flux changes is quick and dramatic, the time lag between the SST anomalies and the atmospheric
convection response varies largely from year to year. The spatial–temporal evolution of subseasonal anomalies indicates that
the subseasonal variability affecting the South China Sea summer monsoon onset starts over the equatorial western Pacific,
propagates northward to the Philippine Sea, and then moves westward to the South China Sea. The propagation of these subseasonal
anomalies is related to the ocean–atmosphere interaction, involving the wind-evaporation and cloud-radiation effects on SST
as well as SST impacts on lower-level convergence over the equatorial western Pacific and atmospheric instability over the
Philippine Sea and the South China Sea. 相似文献

Summary The summer monsoon circulation shows various spatial and temporal oscillations and often a combination of systems produces
an integrated effect. In this study phases of the southwest (SW) monsoon have been identified in an objective manner with
the help of T-mode principal component analysis (PCA) of weekly rainfall anomalies. Mean composite charts have been prepared
utilising all available upper air data (1977–1986) for each category of the SW monsoon epochs identified by the PCA. These
sets of charts have been constructed for both the strong and weak phases associated with the first four significant principal
components (PCs).
A well defined east-west oriented trough system, extending from about 28° N Latitude/65° E Longitude to 20° N Latitude/90° E
Longitude, in the lower levels, has been the main feature associated with the strong phase of the monsoon corresponding to
PC I. The trough in the lower levels is more marked in the eastern half compared to the western half in both the sets of charts
associated with strong phases of the monsoon related to the PC II and PC III. With PC II, the position of the troughs in the
lower levels is further north of its location in PC III. The east-west trough system associated with the strong phase of PC
IV has a large southward tilt with height. The charts corresponding to the weak phases of these PCs have synoptic features,
such as the position of the trough close to the foothills of the Himalayas, and the shifting of middle and upper tropospheric
anticyclones to the south.
The study suggests an objective method of interpretation of principal components by utilising synoptic data. In addition,
synoptic models and data sets corresponding to different phases of the monsoon can also be prepared in an objective manner
by such PCA.

Based on calculations of data from FGGE Level III b, a discussion is made of the energy balance in the 40－50 day periodic oscillation over the Asian monsoon region during the 1979 summer. It is found that the main source of 40－50 day periodic perturbation is the monsoon region extending from central South Asia to Southeast Asia. In the upper layer over the North Pacific subtropical area (10－20oN, 150oE－150oW) pres-sure work turns into kinetic energy that maintains 40－50 day periodic perturbation associated with the variation in position and intensity of the mid-Pacific trough. The mean energy budget in the three-dimensional space (0－30oE, 30oE－150oW, 100－1000 hPa) indicates that the 40－50 day periodic perturbation transports kinetic energy to a seasonal mean and a transient perturbation wind field. 相似文献

应用联合台风警报中心 (JTWC)的资料 ,研究了 1998和 1999年西北太平洋 (WNP)热带气旋 (TC)的活动 ,发现这两年具有较为相似的异常特征 :台风个数明显偏少 ,台风的生成源地显著偏西。对导致这种异常的大尺度条件场的分析表明 ,1998和 1999年的台风季季风槽、垂直风切变、海平面气压等因子的分布都不利于台风在WNP东部海域的生成 ,因此是导致这两年台风偏少和生成源地异常偏西的重要原因。其中 ,季风槽的异常偏西及在盛夏的异常偏北对TC的异常活动产生了主要影响。对低纬大气环流异常的进一步分析表明 ,WNP地区的环流异常是导致季风槽和垂直风切变场异常的主要原因 ,而 1999年异常环流的出现可能是由于低纬大气对印尼附近异常热源强迫的响应所致。由于该热源的存在 ,在其东侧 (WNP地区 )激发出东传的Kelvin波 ,而相应的异常风场则表现为低层盛行异常东风 ,而高层盛行异常西风 ,因此造成了WNP东部和西部海域垂直切变场的近乎相反的变化。同时 ,由于低层异常强的东风不利于季风西风的向东延伸 ,从而使季风槽明显偏西 ,未到达菲律宾以东的热带气旋频发区的位置。 相似文献
