北京城市化对夏季大气边界层结构及 降水的月平均影响

为克服针对一次或几次天气过程研究城市化对边界层结构及降水影响的局限性,尝试研究北京城市化对夏季大气边界层结构及降水的月平均影响,本文首先总结了2006年8月份的主要天气过程,分析了气象站观测的10 m高度风速、2 m高度气温、2 m高度比湿和24 h降水的月平均分布特征,然后利用WRF/Noah/UCM模拟系统,进行了该月30个个例的高分辨率数值模拟及检验分析,并通过多组不同城市化情景的敏感性试验对比分析了城市化对夏季大气边界层结构及降水的月平均影响.研究表明:本文所用对高分辨率数值模拟结果进行月平均的方法可以较合理地模拟出城市化对大气边界层结构及降水的影响,并再现观测到的各站风频差异.8月份,北京城市化对气温的影响高度白天约为800 m,近地面气温升高1℃以上;夜间约为200 m,对近地面气温的影响达到最大(1.4℃以上).白天,城市化使城市及下风向的一些区域风速略有减小;夜间,城市及周边区域200 m以下风速明显减小,且在100 m左右高度处风速减小最明显,减小达0.8 m/s以上.城市化白天使700 m以下比湿减小,近地面处减小达1.2g/kg以上,夜间使近地面空气比湿略有减小.城市化对城市区域平均降水量的影响随城市发展的不同阶段而不同.初步模拟分析表明, 北京城市化已使上风向区域以及城区三环以内降水量减少,海淀和昌平降水明显增加.     

北京城市下垫面对雾影响的数值模拟研究

为了探究北京城市下垫面对雾天气过程的影响,为北京地区雾数值预报水平的提高提供理论基础和科学依据,选取2011年10月29日北京地区雾天个例进行了数值模拟试验,通过对WRF/Noah/UCM模式系统中城市冠层参数的调整,显著改善了模式对此次雾天气过程的模拟效果.使用参数调整后的模式系统通过敏感性试验分析研究了北京城市下垫面对雾发生、发展和消散过程的影响.结果表明:参数调整后的WRF/Noah/UCM模式系统能够与实际观测较相符地模拟此次发生在北京地区的雾天气过程,北京城市下垫面主要通过对温度的改变对雾的形成、发展和消散产生显著影响,使雾不易在城市及其附近形成和发展,延后城市地区雾的形成,但城市的存在也使得城市地区及其附近雾不易消散,相较于没有城市时消散时间延后.     

北京城市化进程对边界层风场结构影响的研究

随着近10年来北京城市化步伐的加快,城市规模迅速扩大,北京三环以外的地区已由20世纪七、八十年代的城郊非均匀下垫面发展成现在粗糙复杂的城区下垫面,市区建筑物相应增多、增密和增高,导致城区地面动力学粗糙度明显增大.本文统计分析了北京325 m气象塔1994年和1997～2003年夏季平均场观测资料,结果表明:(1)在受下垫面影响最为剧烈的近地层,风向逐年趋于紊乱,现在气象塔周围近地面的流场已经具备了典型城市粗糙下垫面的流场特征;(2)近地面夏季平均风速呈现非常明显的逐年递减的趋势,而且距离地表越近,平均风速逐年递减的趋势也越为显著,这种风速逐年递减的趋势直到63 m左右才不明显,说明现在气象塔47 m以下的观测资料反映的是城市冠层的流场特征,城市冠层厚度约在47～63 m之间;(3)随着北京城市化的发展,城区近地面的平均风速存在逐年递减的趋势,但阵风并不存在相似的递减趋势,表明城市冠层的抬升对阵风的影响并不显著.

北京夏季晴天边界层特征及城市下垫面对海风影响的数值模拟

对耦合了Noah陆面模式和单层城市冠层模式的WRF(Weather Research and Forecasting)模式系统进行了改进和优化,通过对2010年8月6－7日北京地区晴天个例的模拟试验,检验了优化前后模式系统的模拟能力,分析研究了该个例中城市边界层的特征及日变化.另外,使用优化后的模拟系统通过两组敏感性试验研究了京津城市下垫面对海风的影响.结果表明,优化方案能够显著提高模式系统对该个例的模拟性能,模式系统基本能够模拟出北京夏季边界层的日变化特征,精确的地表使用类型分类等地理信息数据对提高模式预报的准确度有着至关重要的作用,京津城市对海风的发展和推进过程有明显影响,能够阻碍海风的推进、加强风场的水平辐合和垂直上升气流,北京城市下垫面还能在海风到达前增加其强度和推进速度,并在海风经过后延缓其消亡、增加其推进距离.     

城市地表潜热通量数值模拟方法研究

近年来,中尺度气象模式中城市建筑物影响的数值模拟方法日趋完善,城市地表潜热通量数值模拟方法是目前城市地气耦合研究面临的瓶颈问题之一.采用北京325 m气象塔140 m高度处的能量平衡观测资料,用陆面-单层城市冠层耦合模式进行了一年连续的离线模拟.根据模式对城市下垫面潜热通量模拟的系统性误差较大的特点,基于观测资料研究了城市下垫面潜热通量的数值模拟方法.采用观测分析与城市陆面模式相结合的方法,求出了城市中绿地的绿洲效应系数、城市不透水下垫面水份有效率的时间变化公式以及人为潜热排放的日变化曲线和四季最大值,可直接应用于城市陆面模式,有效提高了模式的整体模拟性能.该方法对其他城市地区有一定的参考意义.     

植被覆盖状况影响中国地表气温变化的观测事实

利用NOAA/AVHRR归一化植被指数（NDVI）及观测气温与再分析地表气温的差值（Observation Minus Reanalysis, OMR）分析了植被覆盖状况对中国地表气温变化的影响.结果表明,地表气温OMR趋势值与NDVI在空间上呈现出显著的负相关关系,植被覆盖状况差（NDVI小于0.1）的区域地表升温较为显著,气温OMR趋势值超过0.2℃/10a,而植被覆盖度高（NDVI大于0.5）的区域气温OMR趋势值则变化不大,甚至出现降温.气温OMR趋势值对植被的季节变化还有着敏感的响应.不同区域植被覆盖状况的差异可能导致中国地表气温变化对全球变暖的响应不同,预测中国未来气候变化需要考虑植被覆盖状况及其动态变化的影响.     

东亚中全新世的气候模拟及其温度变化机制探讨

大量地质证据证实了东亚和北美中全新世(6 kaBP)全年和冬夏季气温高于现代.然而,国际上PMIP计划下18个模式的古气候模拟结果未能捕捉北半球大陆中低纬地区冬季升温的气候特征.这些古气候模拟的冬季降温与地质资料揭示的冬季升温存在着巨大差异,反映出仅仅在太阳辐射变化驱动下的古气候模拟存在重大缺陷. 使用含有陆面过程的全球9层大气环流谱模式(AGCM+SSiB),采用现代植被和中全新世植被预置的不同下垫面对6 kaBP气候及其植被影响进行了模拟试验.古植被强迫下的模拟结果表明,中全新世时东亚地区各季均出现升温.尤其是模拟的冬季增温与地质资料重建的气候特征接近,反映了除太阳辐射的变化外,植被的变化对东亚地区中全新世的增温有着重要作用.该模拟结果的意义在于:(1)用具有物理机制的数值化模型并采用实际下垫面边界条件,能够较好地模拟出中全新世气候特征;(2)从动力机制的角度揭示了中全新世气候与现代气候存在巨大差别的原因在于辐射变化和下垫面植被变化;(3)中全新世下垫面植被的改变引起的地表反射率变化使得东亚陆面与西太平洋表面的热力差异随季节发生变化,因而中全新世夏季风环流增强,而冬季风环流减弱,冷空气活动受到抑制,使得中国区域冬季温度增加, 形成暖冬气候特征.     

中国不同纬度城市群对东亚夏季风气候影响的模拟研究

该工作利用中尺度模式(MM5),通过在中国东部不同地区设置城市扩展区,进行了东亚夏季风气候的模拟对比试验,以研究不同纬度带上城市化对东亚夏季风气候的影响,并试图了解不同气候背景(不同纬度)下大规模城市群(带)的气候效应及其差异.结果表明,城市下垫面扩展使得扩展区及其周边地区的降水减少、气温升高,总体上呈现出干、暖化的趋势.城市化的气候效应通过大气环流的传输可以传播到较广阔的范围.而且不同地域(纬度)的城市下垫面扩展对大范围气候的影响也具有明显差别,北方城市带扩展比南方城市带扩展对东亚气候的影响更为显著.长江三角洲地区对城市扩展造成的下垫面改变相对不敏感,因而在长江三角洲地区比较适合发展大规模城市群,而在中国北方地区,尤其是华北平原地区,则应该对城市化的规模进行适当控制,以减小城市化发展对东亚区域气候产生的不利影响.该工作的模拟结果还表明,城市带扩展对东亚夏季风有明显影响,但由城市扩展激发出的次级大气环流具有较强区域性的特点,因而难以将城市带扩展对夏季风强度的影响概括为整体增强或减弱.     

基于WRF数值模拟的夏季强对流测定方法研究

在固定时间内使WRF数值模式的预报和观测间距实现最小化,是实时准确测定夏季强对流的重要依据,因此研究一种基于WRF数值模拟的夏季强对流测定方法.通过分析河南省2018年7月2日至7月23日闪电定位资料和降水资料,统计夏季强对流天气中降水强度与闪电频数关系,将二者进行线性拟合,根据拟合结果将夏季强对流天气中闪电频数反演至降水强度,并将反演后的降水强度通过四维变分同化资料方法,同化至WRF数值模拟中,获取最终WRF极小化代价函数,实现夏季强对流天气实时准确测定.通过该方法对河南省某机场进行WRF数值模拟研究发现,模拟结果的水平风速、垂直速度、位温与扰动气压变化明显,可准确测定该机场的夏季强对流天气,具有可靠性.     

Sensitivity of surface air temperature change to land use/cover types in China

Using CRU high resolution grid observational temperature and ERA40 reanalysis surface air temperature data during 1960–1999, we investigated the sensitivity of surface air temperature change to land use/cover types in China by subtracting the reanalysis from the observed surface air temperature (observation minus reanalysis, OMR). The results show that there is a stable and systemic impact of land use/cover types on surface air temperature. The surface warming of each land use/cover type reacted differently to global warming. The OMR trends of unused land (⩾0.17 °C/decade), mainly comprised by sandy land, Gobi and bare rock gravel land, are obviously larger than those of the other land use/cover types. The OMR over grassland, farmland and construction land shows a moderate decadal warmingabout 0.12°C/decade, 0.10°C/decade, 0.12°C/decade, respectively. Woodland areas do not show a significant warming trend (0.06°C/decade). The overall assessment indicates that the surface warming is larger for areas that are barren and anthropogenically developed. The better the vegetation cover, the smaller the OMR warming trend. Responses of surface air temperature to land use/cover types with similar physical and chemical properties and biological processes have no significant difference. The surface air temperature would not react significantly until the intensity of land cover changes reach a certain degree. Within the same land use/cover type, areas in eastern China with intensive human activities exhibit larger warming trend. The results provide observational evidence for modeling research on the impact of land use/cover change on regional climate. Thus, projecting further surface climate of China in regional scale should not only take greenhouse gas increase into account, but also consider the impact of land use/cover types and land cover change.

Simulated effects of cropland expansion on seasonal temperatures over China

Human activities result in deforestation, expansion of cropland, grassland degradation, urbanization and other large-scale land use/cover change; among these, cropland expansion is one of the most important processes. To understand the effects of cropland expansion on seasonal temperatures over China, two 21-year simulations (spanning January 1, 1980–December 31, 2000), using the Regional Integrated Environmental Model System (RIEMS 2.0), were performed. The two simulations comprised current realistic land use/cover patterns and the previous vegetation cover without crop expansion, to investigate the impact of crop expansion on seasonal temperatures over China. The results showed that due to cropland expansion: (1) the most obvious changes occurred in the maximum temperatures, followed by the mean surface air temperatures, and the minimum temperatures were the least affected; (2) the summer mean maximum temperatures decreased in most parts of eastern China, and the temperatures changed significantly in most parts of northeast China, north China and central China (p < 0.05); (3) the surface air temperatures, maximum temperatures and minimum temperatures in summer decreased in the different regions by between −0.03 and −0.76 °C (the greatest temperature changes occurred in southwest China, and the smallest were in northeast China); (4) the net radiation flux and latent heat flux increased, while the sensible flux decreased, when semi-desert vegetation was replaced by dry land crops, in both summer and winter seasons, and the converse occurred when irrigated crops were replaced by dry land crops. In addition, the net radiation flux and sensible heat flux decreased, and the latent heat flux increased when short grass and tall grass were replaced dry land crops, as well as when dry land crops were replaced by irrigated crops.     

Land use effects on climate in China as simulated by a regional climate model

A regional climate model (RegCM3) nested within ERA40 re-analyzed data is used to investigate the climate effects of land use change over China. Two 15-year simulations (1987―2001), one with current land use and the other with potential vegetation cover without human intervention, are conducted for a domain encompassing China. The climate impacts of land use change are assessed from the difference between the two simulations. Results show that the current land use (modified by anthropogenic ac- tivities) influences local climate as simulated by the model through the reinforcement of the monsoon circulation in both the winter and summer seasons and through changes of the surface energy budget. In winter, land use change leads to reduced precipitation and decreased surface air temperature south of the Yangtze River, and increased precipitation north of the Yangtze River. Land use change signifi- cantly affects summer climate in southern China, yielding increased precipitation over the region, de- creased temperature along the Yangtze River and increased temperature in the South China area (south-end of China). In summer, a reduction of precipitation over northern China and a temperature rise over Northwest China are also simulated. Both daily maximum and minimum temperatures are affected in the simulations. In general, the current land use in China leads to enhanced mean annual precipitation and decreased annual temperature over south China along with decreased precipitation over North China.     

Diurnal timing of warmer air under climate change affects magnitude,timing and duration of stream temperature change

Stream temperature will be subject to changes because of atmospheric warming in the future. We investigated the effects of the diurnal timing of air temperature changes – daytime warming versus nighttime warming – on stream temperature. Using the physically based model, Heat Source, we performed a sensitivity analysis of summer stream temperatures to three diurnal air temperature distributions of +4 °C mean air temperature: i) uniform increase over the whole day, ii) warmer daytime and iii) warmer nighttime. The stream temperature model was applied to a 37‐km section of the Middle Fork John Day River in northeastern Oregon, USA. The three diurnal air temperature distributions generated 7‐day average daily maximum stream temperatures increases of approximately +1.8 °C ± 0.1 °C at the downstream end of the study section. The three air temperature distributions, with the same daily mean, generated different ranges of stream temperatures, different 7‐day average daily maximum temperatures, different durations of stream temperature changes and different average daily temperatures in most parts of the reach. The stream temperature changes were out of phase with air temperature changes, and therefore in many places, the greatest daytime increase in stream temperature was caused by nighttime warming of air temperatures. Stream temperature changes tended to be more extreme and of longer duration when driven by air temperatures concentrated in either daytime or nighttime instead of uniformly distributed across the diurnal cycle.

Climate and land cover effects on the temperature of Puget Sound streams

We apply an integrated hydrology‐stream temperature modeling system, DHSVM‐RBM, to examine the response of the temperature of the major streams draining to Puget Sound to land cover and climate change. We first show that the model construct is able to reconstruct observed historic streamflow and stream temperature variations at a range of time scales. We then explore the relative effect of projected future climate and land cover change, including riparian vegetation, on streamflow and stream temperature. Streamflow in summer is likely to decrease as the climate warms especially in snowmelt‐dominated and transient river basins despite increased streamflow in their lower reaches associated with urbanization. Changes in streamflow also result from changes in land cover, and changes in stream shading result from changes in riparian vegetation, both of which influence stream temperature. However, we find that the effect of riparian vegetation changes on stream temperature is much greater than land cover change over the entire basin especially during summer low flow periods. Furthermore, while future projected precipitation change will have relatively modest effects on stream temperature, projected future air temperature increases will result in substantial increases in stream temperature especially in summer. These summer stream temperature increases will be associated both with increasing air temperature, and projected decreases in low flows. We find that restoration of riparian vegetation could mitigate much of the projected summer stream temperature increases. We also explore the contribution of riverine thermal loadings to the heat balance of Puget Sound, and find that the riverine contribution is greatest in winter, when streams account for up to 1/8 of total thermal inputs (averaged from December through February), with larger effects in some sub‐basins. We project that the riverine impact on thermal inputs to Puget Sound will become greater with both urbanization and climate change in winter but become smaller in summer due to climate change.

无参考序列条件下地面气温观测资料城市化偏差订正方法：以北京站为例

本文以北京气象站长期地面气温观测资料为例,发展了一种无早期参考序列条件下城镇站城市化偏差评价和订正方法.首先对北京站逐月平均最高、最低气温资料进行质量控制和均一化处理,并借助卫星遥感亮度温度资料遴选附近乡村站;然后利用最近3年逐时地面气温资料,计算观象台和5个乡村站各月平均地面气温的差值,把其作为北京站1915-2012年期间的城市化累积影响;最后假设城市化累积影响在整个研究时期呈匀速增长,采用线性订正法对地面月平均气温序列中的城市化偏差进行订正.分析表明：资料均一化处理后,北京站近百年最高、最低和平均气温多年平均值有所下降,气温日较差则有所提高,但三种年平均气温序列增温趋势和年平均气温日较差序列下降趋势有所增强.北京站年平均最低气温、平均气温和气温日较差序列中均存在较大的城市化累积影响,其中最低气温和平均气温四个季节均为正值,冬季最大,秋季次之,夏季最小,四季和年平均气温日较差均为较大的负值.订正城市化偏差后,最低气温和平均气温增加速率均明显下降,年平均气温日较差下降趋势则明显变弱.     

太湖流域LUCC对水文过程的影响

基于1971年枯水年、1989年丰水年、2000年平水年3类典型代表年的逐日降雨量、逐日蒸发量以及不同时期地表覆盖遥感分类数据,以城市化快速发展地表覆盖变化明显的太湖流域为研究区域,利用太湖流域河网水量模型进行了土地利用/覆被变化的水文响应研究,分析了太湖流域1990 2000年与2000 2006年间的土地利用/覆被变化及其对水位过程的影响.不仅有利于对城市化地区水文特征变化规律深入了解,也为典型城市化地区防洪减灾提供科学可靠的依据.研究表明,太湖流域城镇化进程的加快引起了土地利用/覆被变化的主要表现是水田、水域等面积向城镇面积转化,城镇化进程加快,2000 2006年期间的城镇化速度大于1990 2000年间;下垫面的变化对太湖流域水文过程产生了明显的影响,随着城市化进程地表覆盖的变化,水位有整体升高的趋势,并且增幅加大,与城镇化速率变化趋势相一致,城镇化程度高的地方水位上升更为明显;降雨量也是水位过程的影响因素之一.     

Regional climate change and local urbanization effects on weather variables in Southeast China

This paper presents the analyses of regional climate change features and the local urbanization effects on different weather variables over Southeast China. The weather variables considered are: daily mean (T_m), minimum (T_min), and maximum (T_max) near surface air temperature, diurnal temperature range (DTR), relative humidity (RH), and precipitation (P). With analysis of two datasets (a station dataset for the period from 1960 to 2005 that is mainly used and a grid dataset for the period 1960–2000), this study reveals that the trends in the variations of these weather variables can be separated into two periods, before and after 1984. Before 1984, there were no significant urbanization effects, and T_min, RH, and P steadily increased but T_max decreased, resulting in a considerable decrease in DTR and a slight decrease in T_m. After 1984, T_min and T_max increased considerably, and the urbanization influence on T_min, but not T_max, is observable. The urbanization effect causes an extra increasing trend in T_min with a rate of about 0.6°C/decade and, accordingly, extra decreasing trends in DTR and RH. The analysis of the seasonal trends reveals that the urbanization influence results in a near-uniform increase of T_min for all four seasons and a strong decrease of RH in summer and autumn. Moreover, there is no significant change in P at the annual scale and an increasing rate of 11.8%/decade in summer. With the urbanization influence, a considerable increase in P is noticeable at the annual scale; specifically, the increasing rates of 18.6%/decade in summer and 13.5%/decade in autumn are observed.     

Changes of temperature extremes for 1960–2004 in Far-West China

The spatial and temporal patterns of the temperature extremes defined by 5th and 95th percentiles based on daily maximum/minimum temperature dataset were analyzed using Mann–Kendall test and linear regression method. The research results indicate that: (1) the seasonal minimum temperature is in stronger increasing trend than the seasonal maximum temperature; (2) in comparison with the changes of the maximum temperature, more stations display significantly increasing trends of minimum temperature in frequency and intensity; (3) comparatively, more stations have significantly decreasing trends in the intra-seasonal extreme temperature anomaly in summer and winter than in spring and autumn. The areal mean minimum temperature is in stronger increasing trend than areal mean maximum temperature; (4) the warming process in the Far-West (FW) China is characterized mainly by significantly increasing minimum temperature. The research will be helpful for local human mitigation to alterations in water resource and ecological environment in FW China due to changes of temperature extremes, as the ecologically fragile region of China.
