A monotonic limiter and flux-corrected transport approach for high-order time integration schemes     

Sang-Hun Park  Tae-Young Lee 《Asia-Pacific Journal of Atmospheric Sciences》2013,49(5):649-654

A monotonic transport algorithm for a high-order time integration scheme is described in this paper. The algorithm is a modified version of an existing high-order time integration scheme, and is tested using a simple one-dimensional pulse and two-dimensional deformational flows. It is found that the new formulation can remove the error, caused by new maxima/minima and excessive smoothing, which occurs in scalar transport using the original extrapolation scheme. The results show that there may be potential for the high-order time integration scheme to be applied in numerical weather prediction models.  相似文献   

Regional adjustment of emission strengths via four dimensional data assimilation     

Sun-Kyoung Park  Armistead G. Russell 《Asia-Pacific Journal of Atmospheric Sciences》2013,49(3):361-374

The Four-Dimensional Data Assimilation was performed to evaluate source emission strengths over the United States. The USEPA Models-3 system (CMAQ/MM5/SMOKE) and ridge regression are used as the forward and inverse models, respectively. The continental US is divided into six regions, and data assimilation is performed for each region in July 2001 and January 2002. In addition, two separate scaling factors are calculated for weekdays and weekends. Results show that base emissions for CO and SO₂ sources are relatively accurate. Base emissions for PEC source are overestimated 100%, but those for POA source are underestimated up to 70% when compared with the adjusted emissions. Emissions for NH₃, NO _x , and PMFINE sources are relatively accurate in July 2001, but those in January 2002 are around 100% higher than the adjusted emissions. Base VOC emissions in July 2001 are similar to the adjusted emissions but those in January 2002 are underestimated up to 70% when compared with the adjusted emissions. Though the emission adjustment itself improves the overall air quality model performance, a better improvement is expected with the modification of speciation profiles and temporal allocations in the Models-3 system, as well.  相似文献   

Ecosystem responses to climate change in a large on-river reservoir, Lake Paldang, Korea   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3

The impact of climate change on a large river reservoir ecosystem was investigated. Long-term meteorological data showed that recent climate change, including warmer winters, increased precipitation intensity and extended dry periods, may have influenced the basin of Lake Paldang, the most downstream reservoir of a series of on-river reservoirs. Extreme hydrologic events and climate warming, acting independently and in combination, appear to be related to changes in the Lake Paldang ecosystem. A significant increase in chlorophyll a concentrations in early spring corresponded to the timing of ice break-up. An increase in winter temperatures, which resulted in a shorter time period of ice-cover and earlier ice break-up, appears to have stimulated phytoplankton growth in winter and early spring. Repeated intensive and extended influxes of turbid water, associated with more frequent extreme rainfall events, have increased concentration of suspended solids and may have influenced the biotic community structure of Lake Paldang. In the mid-2000s, the area vegetated by submerged hydrophytes, the abundance and biomass of the phylum Mollusca, as well as the abundance of fish from the subfamily Acheilognathinae, which spawn in the body of bivalve molluscs, was all smaller than in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Together, these results suggest that climate change may have contributed directly and indirectly to changes in each trophic level of the Lake Paldang ecosystem.  相似文献   

Active Region Coronal Rain Event Observed by the Fast Imaging Solar Spectrograph on the NST     

Kwangsu Ahn  Jongchul Chae  Kyung-Suk Cho  Donguk Song  Heesu Yang  Philip R. Goode  Wenda Cao  Hyungmin Park  Jakyung Nah  Bi-Ho Jang  Young-Deuk Park 《Solar physics》2014,289(11):4117-4136

The Fast Imaging Solar Spectrograph (FISS) is being operated on the New Solar Telescope of the Big Bear Solar Observatory. It simultaneously records spectra of Hα and Ca ii 8542 Å lines, and this dual-spectra measurement provides an estimate of the temperature and nonthermal speed components. We observed a loop structure in AR 11305 using the FISS, SDO/AIA, and STEREO/EUVI in 304 Å, and found plasma material falling along the loop from a coronal height into the umbra of a sunspot, which accelerated up to 80 km?s^?1. We also observed C2 and C7 flare events near the loop. The temperature of the downflows was in the range of 10?000?–?33?000 K, increasing toward the umbra. The temperature of the flow varied with time, and the temperature near the footpoint rose immediately after the C7 flare, but the temperature toward the umbra remained the same. There seemed to be a temporal correlation between the amount of downflow material and the observed C-class flares. The downflows decreased gradually soon after the flares and then increased after a few hours. These high-speed red-shift events occurred continuously during the observations. The flows observed on-disk in Hα and Ca ii 8542 Å appeared as fragmented, fuzzy condensed material falling from the coronal heights when seen off-limb with STEREO/EUVI at 304 Å. Based on these observations, we propose that these flows were an on-disk signature of coronal rain.  相似文献   

Revisiting Solar and Heliospheric 1.3-Year Signals during 1970 – 2007     

I.-H. Cho  J. Hwang  Y.-D. Park 《Solar physics》2014,289(3):707-719

We revisit the 1.3-year (yr) signals observed on the Sun, in the interplanetary space, and in the Earth’s magnetosphere to study the coupling among signals from the three regions for about 40 years (1970?–?2007) covering the three solar cycles 21, 22, and 23. For this, we make dynamic spectra of datasets including three different regions. From this, we estimate the peak frequency around 1.3 yr for each region and the corresponding band power. We found that coherent power only appears during 1987?–?1995 and the coherent behavior is found only in the interplanetary space and Earth, not in the Sun. Although the solar surface magnetic field shows significant power around 1.3 yr, their peak frequencies are statistically different from those of the outer regions, which make us dismiss the existence of coherence among the three regions. But it is notable that the peaks in band power corresponding to the 1.3-yr period are clearly simultaneous in the interplanetary space and Earth.  相似文献   

Time-domain geoacoustic inversion of high-frequency chirp signal from a simple towed system     

Cheolsoo Park Woojae Seong Gerstoft  P. Siderius  M. 《Oceanic Engineering, IEEE Journal of》2003,28(3):468-478

An inversion method using a towed system consisting of a source and two receivers is presented. High-frequency chirp signals that have been emitted from the source are received after multiple penetrations and reflections from the shallow water sub-bottom structure and are processed for geoacoustical parameter estimation. The data are processed such that a good resolution and robustness is achieved via matched filtering, which requires information about the source signal. The inversion is formulated as an optimization problem, which maximizes the cost function defined as a normalized correlation between the measured and modeled signals directly in the time domain. The very fast simulated reannealing optimization method is applied to the global search problem. The modeled time signal is obtained using a ray approach. An experiment was carried out in the Mediterranean Sea using a towed source and receiver system. The inversion method is applied to the experimental data and results are found to be consistent with previous frequency-domain analyses using measurements from a towed horizontal array of receivers and measurements on a vertical array.  相似文献

Shear-zone deformation and bulk strain in granite-greenstone terrain of the Western Superior Province,Canada     

R.G. Park 《Precambrian Research》1981,14(1):31-47

The later Archaean history of the granite-greenstone terrain of the western Superior Province in Manitoba was marked by the development of numerous shear zones with varying orientation and sense of movement. Data are presented on the orientation, width and displacement of 15 shear zones in a 61,000 km² area east of Lake Winnipeg. By making simplifying assumptions, estimates are made of the orientation of the maximum compressive stress (N-S) and the bulk shortening strain caused by the shear zone displacements (39–45%).The estimates of shear zone displacement strain are compared with estimates of bulk strain obtained by analysing the granite-greenstone shape pattern over a large area of the western Superior Province, again making simplifying assumptions. As expected, the contribution of the more ductile greenstones to the bulk strain is proportionately greater. A value of around 40% is indicated for the bulk shortening strain.Estimates of mean shear strain obtained both from shear zone displacement/width measurements and from strain profiles show a wide range in values from around 10 in some narrow zones to around 1 in very wide zones.  相似文献
