西太平洋翁通-爪哇海台晚第四纪浮游有孔虫群与古温度变化   总被引：3，自引：1，他引：3  

金海燕  翦知湣  刘东升 《海洋地质与第四纪地质》2003,23(4):65-71

通过对翁通-爪哇海台ODP807站的浮游有孔虫进行定量分析,结合已有的氧、碳稳定同位素数据,揭示了晚第四纪赤道西太平洋表层海水温度及上部海水垂向结构的冰期／间冰期变化特征。研究表明,自530kaBP以来,西太平洋暖池区的表层海水温度(SST)和温跃层深度(DOT)都经历过显著的变化,其中年平均SST的冰期／间冰期变化幅度达4．2℃,DOT的波动范围更是超过100m,这进一步论证了西太平洋暖池的不稳定性。频谱分析还揭示出SST和DOT变化不仅具有典型的100ka冰期／间冰期旋回,还有热带地区特有的半岁差周期,说明研究区的古海洋学变化既有高纬驱动的作用,也有热带驱动的影响。  相似文献

Chlorophyll modulation of mixed layer thermodynamics in a mixed-layer isopycnal General Circulation Model — An example from Arabian Sea and equatorial Pacific

Western tropical Indian Ocean, Arabian Sea, and the equatorial Pacific are known as regions of intense bio-chemical-physical interactions: the Arabian Sea has the largest phytoplankton bloom with seasonal signal, while the equatorial Pacific bloom is perennial with quasi-permanent upwelling. Here, we studied three dimensional ocean thermodynamics comparing recent ocean observation with ocean general circulation model (OPYC) experiment combined with remotely sensed chlorophyll pigment concentrations from the Coastal Zone Color Scanner (CZCS). Using solar radiation parameterization representing observations that a higher abundance of chlorophyll increases absorption of solar irradiance and heating rate in the upper ocean, we showed that the mixed layer thickness decreases more than they would be under clear water conditions. These changes in the model mixed layer were consistent with Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS) observations during the 1994-1995 Arabian Sea experiment and epi-fluorescence microscopy (EFM) on samples collected during Equatorial Pacific Ocean Climate Study (EPOCS) in November, 1988. In the Arabian Sea, as the chlorophyll concentrations peak in October (3 mg/m³) after the summer plankton bloom induced by coastal upwelling, the chlorophyll induced biological heating enhanced the sea surface temperature (SST) by as much as 0.6‡C and sub-layer temperature decreases and sub-layer thickness increases. In the equatorial Pacific, modest concentrations of chlorophyll less than 0.3 mg/m³ is enough to introduce a meridional differential heating, which results in reducing the equatorial mixed layer thickness to more than 20 m. The anomalous meridional tilting of the mixed layer bottom enhances off equatorial westward geostrophic currents. Consequently, the equatorial undercurrent transports more water from west to east. We proposed that these numerical model experiments with use of satellite andin situ ocean observations are consistent under three dimensional ocean circulation theory combined with solar radiation transfer process.  相似文献

用北半球陆地上48个地面电离层垂测站资料，以及国际参考电离层IRI 90模式，考察1985年1月6～7日F2层电子密度最大值日变化的纬度剖面和经度效应. 结果表明，在亚洲地区的20°N～30°N内，F2层赤道异常“喷泉效应”产生的NmF2“北驼峰”最高，其最大值出现在中午，或稍迟时间. 30°N ～50°N区域内，NmF2的白天峰值幅度逐渐下降，峰值时间移至午前约10:00 LT. 更高纬度(50°N～62°N )台站上，中午前后NmF2出现双峰，傍晚有谷值，夜间又再次抬升. 欧、美地区的低纬台站很少，但借助IRI 90模式分析可发现，在270°E经圈上，“喷泉效应”造成的“北驼峰”幅度最小，而且随纬度增大时，NmF2白天幅度下降也不明显，即纬度剖面的经度效应非常显著. 对中国、日本地区台站资料的小范围经度差异分析表明，在驼峰区的90°E～140°E内，各站NmF2无明显差别；但在中纬地区30°N～50°N内，中国西部上空NmF2白天变化幅度较大，且较为陡直，而中国东部和日本台站上空则相对平缓.  相似文献   

热力强迫对越赤道气流产生和维持的作用——定性分析     

王向东  廖洞贤 《气象学报》1997,55(4):484-491

从原始方程出发，应用大气运动的对称反对称性理论，就赤道地区一呈偶极子分布的反对称冷热源对越赤道气流的形成和维持作用进行了定性分析。结果表明，非绝热加热的反对称分布对越赤道气流的影响是通过诱发和维持反对称的气压场分量来实现的。即在热源上空低层形成低压，高层形成高压；在热汇上空形成相反的气压场。这样，在赤道上空高、低层就将形成与相应气压梯度方向一致的越赤道气流  相似文献

Before the 1980s, El Ni?o was believed as the sea surface warming along the coast of Peru in South America. As the positive anomaly strengths, the warm water expands westward along the equator to form large area of anomalous high sea surface temperature. Rasmusson and Carpenter (1982) summarized the de-velopment process of the sea surface warm water and the corresponding wind field[1] during ENSO cylce. However, this canonical El Ni?o was questioned by 1982-1983 warm episode and later dat…  相似文献   

Satellite-tracked drifting buoy observations in the south equatorial current in the Indian Ocean     

S R Shetye  G S Michael 《Journal of Earth System Science》1988,97(2):149-157

Three satellite-tracked drifting buoys released in the south equatorial current in the Indian Ocean followed the path of the current moving westward approximately zonally in the vicinity of 10 S latitude. On nearing the east coast of Africa two buoys moved north and the third moved south. Over the open sea regime the buoys moved with a speed of approximately 30 cm/s at an angle of about 35° to the left of the wind. The overall tendencies seen in the buoy drift are similar to those observed elsewhere in the world oceans.  相似文献

本文采用最大熵谱分析方法揭示了赤道东太平洋海温和长江下游地区降水均存在3-4年和准两年的周期性振荡特征。且通过时滞相关分析发现两者均存在显著的相关关系,并以降水滞后海温约4个月的正相关最为明显。在此基础上利用一个多级数字滤波器对两者的逐月距平序列进行了高通、低通和带通滤波,并对两者在不同时间尺度上的滤波分量进行时滞相关分析,结果发现只是在2-4年的时间尺度上两者相关最为密切,并以降水滞后海温4-5月的正相关最为显著。  相似文献   

用赤道东太平洋海温预报西太平洋热带气旋年际变化的探讨   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1       下载免费PDF全文

根据实际应用中统计预报对相关系数的基本要求,利用相关分析探讨了用赤道东太平洋海温预测西太平洋热带气旋年际变化的可行性。同时,利用谱分析方法探讨了这种预报的有效性和局限性。主要结论是:用区域(5°N—5°S,90—150°W)的平均海温预测西太平洋热带气旋的年际变化,效果比使用赤道东太平洋海温好,用前者可预测西太平洋中区各类热带气旋的年际变化,用后者只能预测西太平洋全区及中区热带气旋总体的年际变化,对达到热带风暴或台风的热带气旋的年际变化则分别是勉强能或不能预测;用赤道东太平洋海温无法预测南海热带气旋的年际变化;用赤道东太平洋海温预测西太平洋热带气旋活动实际上只对年际变化中的ENSO(3—5年)周期及准二年周期有效。  相似文献
