一次华南海岸带台前飑线的结构特征与环境条件的观测研究

2007年8月8日,热带风暴“帕布”移动到华南近海,在珠江三角洲至湛江以西地区出现了一次强飑线天气过程。根据多普勒天气雷达、风廓线雷达和气象探空等观测数据,分析此次台前飑线的生成、演变过程、组织结构以及环境大气条件特征,并对热带风暴“帕布”与台前飑线环境大气的关系进行初步探讨。观测和分析结果显示:(1)此次台前飑线系统是由孤立的对流单体逐渐发展而成,陆风环流的抬升作用有可能对飑线的初始生成起到重要作用;(2)台前飑线移动路径和强度受海岸附近环境条件的影响;在海岸靠近陆地一侧的强度远比内陆和海洋上强,移动路径倾向于沿海岸线平行;(3)台前飑线在发展和成熟阶段,其水平结构具有典型的尾流层云降水特征;其冷池强度和垂直结构具有典型的热带飑线特征;(4)台前飑线发生在具有深厚水汽层、对流凝结高度较低的环境大气条件中,与热带飑线的环境大气条件类似;而对流不稳定能量和低层垂直风切变强度与中纬度飑线接近;(5)热带气旋外围大风一方面使低层风切变加强,同时为环境大气提供了高层的水汽。在下沉环流区内太阳辐射使陆地明显增温,一方面使位势不稳定能量增大,另一方面也使海陆温差增大、海风环流加强,导致低层风切变进一步加强,低层水汽输送增大。下沉逆温抑制了低层弱对流的发生,为强对流的发展积累了对流不稳定能量。      

地基遥感联合反演大气边界层高度与ERA5再分析资料比对分析

利用北京国家综合气象探测试验基地超大城市观测试验建设的地基垂直遥感设备(激光气溶胶雷达、微波辐射计及风廓线雷达),使用2021年5—8月的观测资料,根据不同设备的探测优势以及边界层的日变化规律,利用激光气溶胶雷达、微波辐射计、风廓线雷达观测资料进行联合反演,得到全天候大气边界层高度。并将联合反演所得的边界层高度与探空资料计算及ERA5再分析资料提供的全天候大气边界层高度进行比较,发现:联合反演边界层高度与ERA5数据提供的大气边界层高度有较好的一致性;激光气溶胶雷达适用于白天对流边界层的观测,微波辐射计适用于夜间稳定边界层的观测,使用微波辐射计与风廓线雷达联合反演大气边界层高度可以改善弱降雨时单设备的反演结果;联合反演的大气边界层高度结果与单设备反演大气边界层高度均符合大气边界层的日变化规律;得到的联合反演边界层高度与探空数据计算得到的大气边界层高度差值的标准偏差为62 m,相较于ERA5数据提供的一定范围内大气边界层高度均值,联合反演边界层高度能更精准地反映更小范围内的大气边界层高度。     

辽宁绥中地区海陆风的多普勒测风激光雷达观测与特征提取

2019年3月,利用相干多普勒测风激光雷达首次在辽东湾西部绥中地区进行了风廓线测量试验。根据研究区域海岸线走向采用风向的十六分位法定义局地海风和陆风,分析和提取海陆风特征验证了多普勒测风激光雷达在春季季风间断期间观测海陆风的可行性,并计算和分析了大气边界层湍流能量的变化以及回流水平变化等特性。结果表明：1）绥中地区春季存在明显的海陆风环流特征,测风激光雷达观测海陆风出现的时间与地面自动气象站观测的数据较为一致,符合海陆风日的定义。2）海陆风日发生时,水平局地回流指数（RF）较小,1.2 km以下的RF值小于0.5,使得污染物循环累积,较易形成雾霾天气;但是海风时大气边界层的高度可达1 km以上,有利于低层大气污染物向高层扩散,减轻低层大气污染。研究结果为该地边界层参数化方案的设计和污染的防治提供了参考依据。     

乌鲁木齐冬季大气边界层温度和风廓线观测研究

为了进一步认识乌鲁木齐冬季大气边界层的结构特征及其对大气污染的影响,为改进城市空气污染预报和污染治理提供科学依据,利用2008年1月11—13日系留气艇对乌鲁木齐市城区大气边界层过程进行观测试验的资料,分析了观测期间乌鲁木齐风、温廓线和混合层厚度的变化特征,并探讨了大气边界层结构对乌鲁木齐大气污染的影响。结果表明:观测期间乌鲁木齐近地面全天存在悬浮逆温,且有时为多层逆温,大气层结稳定;受逆温层的影响,近地面全天风速都很小,均在4m/s以下,风向随高度变化规律明显;观测期间乌鲁木齐大气混合层厚度平均为274m。乌鲁木齐冬季大气边界层风、温廓线的特征及混合层厚度,对大气污染的影响作用显著,是造成该地区冬季多污染的主要原因之一。     

丘陵地区大气边界层风廓线雷达适用性分析

本文利用2010年夏季福建省三明市开展的大气扩散实验资料,研究了大气边界层风廓线雷达在福建丘陵地区的适用性,并探讨了风廓线雷达探测的误差特征和修正方法。结果表明：大气边界层风廓线雷达水平风场的探测结果在300~2 000 m高度范围的偏差与高度和风速具有一定统计关系;通过与100 m气象铁塔水平风场资料对比,说明风廓线雷达对丘陵地区低层大气风场的探测具有一定局限性。经过修正的风廓线雷达探测结果可以较好地反映实验区域大气边界层水平风场的垂直结构。     

闽北地区边界层移动风廓线雷达对比试验评估

为了更好地把握风廓线雷达的探测性能和数据精度,对移动风廓线雷达与L波段探空雷达资料进行对比统计分析,结果表明：移动风廓线雷达的有效数据获取率达到80％的高度为3500m,符合边界层风廓线雷达的有效探测高度。移动风廓线的径向速度平均差和标准差随着高度的增加而增加,东西方向的径向速度误差比南北方向的高约0．5—1．0m／s。风廓线雷达自身数据的准确性良好,但是降雨对数据的准确性影响比较大。这次对比试验结果表明,对比试验应该选择比较平稳的天气过程。由于秋冬季节大气环流比较稳定,降雨类型多为层状云降雨,因而风廓线雷达数据可靠性高;对流性降雨过程往往造成风廓线雷达资料可靠性降低。

降水条件下风廓线雷达数据质量分析及处理

风廓线雷达是当前获取大气三维风场信息的有效途径,但受其本身探测原理的约束,降水时的观测数据(尤其是边界层风廓线雷达的观测数据)将受到较大影响。为提高降水时边界层风廓线雷达数据的可信度,依据五波束探测和三波束探测原理,结合风廓线雷达功率谱再分析,建立了风廓线雷达数据筛选、填补的重处理方法,通过选取不同降水强度下的从化、潮州、阳江三个边界层风廓线雷达站的观测数据,开展了基于该方法的数据质量评估。研究结果指出:降水时虽能提高风廓线雷达的数据获取率,但风场数据质量并不一定较好(尤其是在特大暴雨时数据质量较差);经过数据重处理后,风廓线雷达的有效数据获取率得到提高,且内陆站点提升的幅度超过沿海站点;降水对2 km以下的观测数据影响较小,对于2 km以上的数据,若降水只是对部分高度造成数据缺失,则经过重处理后数据质量仍可以保持较好,但若连续多个高度数据缺失,则经过数据重处理后也不能较好地提高数据质量。

CHARACTERISTICS OF BOUNDARY LAYER AND ITS EFFECTS ON ATMOSPHERIC AEROSOL CONCENTRATIONS IN DONGGUAN, GUANGDONG

The structure of atmospheric boundary layer determines the ability of atmospheric dispersion and has an essential impact on airborne aerosols. In this paper, the data of a radio sounding experiment held in Dongguan National Meteorological Observation Station, which is in a coastal city in Pearl River Delta, as well as the data of atmospheric aerosols, were utilized in order to analyze the characteristics of atmospheric boundary layer and its effects on surface aerosol concentrations. The results are showed at follows: the local circulations, associated with dominant winds, made complex structures of atmospheric layers, as the cold air and systematic winds weakened in the end of a cold air event. Weakened wind shears and inversion layers, especially a strong near-surface inversion layer, remarkably diminished the atmospheric diffusion abilities and facilitated an especially high concentration of surface aerosols. The convergence line or weak shear line of sea breeze in the ground level helps weaken the atmospheric diffusion abilities and results in atmospheric aerosols accumulation.

NUMERICAL PREDICTION OF AN EXTREME RAINSTORM OVER THE PEARL RIVER DELTA REGION ON 7 MAY 2017 BASED ON WRF-ENKF

An ensemble Kalman filter based on the Weather Research and Forecasting Model (WRF-EnKF) is used to explore the effectiveness of the assimilation of surface observation data in an extreme local rainstorm over the Pearl River Delta region on 7 May 2017. Before the occurrence of rainstorm, the signals of weather forecasts in this case are too weak to be predicted by numerical weather model, but the surface temperature over the urban area are high. The results of this study show that the wind field, temperature, and water vapor are obviously adjusted by assimilating surface data of 10-m wind, 2-m temperature, and 2-m water vapor mixing ratio at 2300 BST 6 May, especially below the height of 2 km. The southerly wind over the Pearl River Delta region is enhanced, and the convergence of wind over the northern Guangzhou city is also enhanced. Additionally, temperature, water vapor mixing ratio and pseudoequivalent potential temperature are obviously increased over the urban region, providing favorable conditions for the occurrence of heavy precipitation. After assimilation, the predictions of 12-h rainfall amount, temperature, and relative humidity are significantly improved, and the rainfall intensity and distribution in this case can be successfully reproduced. Moreover, sensitivity tests suggest that the assimilation of 2-m temperature is the key to predict this extreme rainfall and just assimilating data of surface wind or water vapor is not workable, implying that urban heat island effect may be an important factor in this extreme rainstorm.     

The evolution and structure of a tropical island sea/land-breeze system, northern Australia

Summary This paper is concerned with sea/land-breeze systems over relatively flat tropical islands to the north of continental Australia. The purpose of this study is to contribute to the relatively small body of knowledge on tropical island sea/land-breeze systems in this region and to highlight their particular characteristics. The evolution and structure of coastal circulations over the Tiwi Islands, northern Australia are examined using observations made during the Maritime Continent Thunderstorm Experiment (MCTEX), November/December 1995. During the transition period between dry and wet (monsoon) seasons, strong diurnal surface heating dominates the local meteorology. Thermally modified pressure differences across the coastline are seen to control the timing, direction and intensity of local winds. The evolution and structure of the resulting circulations appear to be affected greatest by tropospheric stability and friction, while the Coriolis force, synoptic winds and topography are of much less importance in this case. Consequently, even small differences in surface properties seem to produce strong and well defined local wind circulations. The depth of the sea breeze averaged 1200 m, while the land breeze was considerably shallower (290 m). Return flows were evident in both circulations, although better defined in land breeze cases. Day to day variation in vertical structure was considerable and appeared to be controlled by stability in the lower troposphere. Spatial patterns of surface temperature, pressure and wind show formation of an island heat low by day and a cool high pressure centre at night, resulting in island scale convergence and divergence, respectively.

Interaction of the sea breeze with a river breeze in an area of complex coastal heating

A three-dimensional finite-element mesoscale model is used to study the interaction of two different but related mesoscale phenomena in an area having a complex pattern of surface heating. The model simulations have been compared with temperature and wind fields observed on a typical fall day during the Kennedy Space Center Atmospheric Boundary Layer Experiment on the east coast of Florida.Numerical results and observations both show that the meso- scale flow field is significantly modified from the conventional coastal-flow patterns by the smaller meso- scale irregular geographic features in this area. A local river breeze is observed to develop around the Indian River almost the same time as the Atlantic sea breeze. A comparison of the sea and the river breezes shows a large difference in their horizontal circulations but only slight differences in their vertical scales. The sea breeze intensifies more rapidly than the river breeze, so that a lag of 1 to 1.5 h exists between their most developed stages. The river breeze is relatively stationary, whereas the sea breeze propagates inland, with an eventual merger of the two circulations occurring about 6–8 h after their onset.Different synoptic wind regimes create different flow structures. Well-defined sea- and river-breeze circulations become established under calm, weak offshore, and weak alongshore synoptic-wind conditions. Maximum vertical velocities occur in the sea-breeze front (river-breeze front) in the cases of calm (offshore winds). The sea breeze and the river breeze are weaker when the synoptic winds are stronger.Finally, the results from numerical experiments designed to isolate the rivers' effect indicate that the convergence in the sea-breeze front is suppressed when it passes over the cooler surface of the rivers.Journal Paper No. J-14150 of the Iowa Agriculture and Home Economics Experiment Station, Ames, Iowa, Project No. 2779     

澳门及其邻近地区海陆风的模拟

利用宾州／美国国家大气研究中心的ＭＭ５模式来模拟澳门的海陆风和珠江口的三维风场。模式设计为四重套网格,分辨率分别为 １ｋｍ,３ ｋｍ,９ ｋｍ,２７ ｋｍ。使用常规观测资料作为初始场,模拟时间为３０小时。结果表明采用高分辨率（１ｋｍ）模拟能很好地捕捉到澳门的海风和陆风。海风锋和热力内边界层也清楚可见。如果最小分辨率为３ ｋｍ,则只捕捉到海风,陆风却模拟不出来。     

惠州市臭氧污染特征及其与气象条件关系研究

利用广东省惠州市区2013—2016年逐日、逐时的环境和气象资料, 研究了珠江三角洲(简称“珠三角”)东侧惠州市臭氧污染特征及其与气象条件关系。结果表明:惠州市臭氧污染具有明显的月和季节变化特征, 10月臭氧平均浓度最高, 臭氧超标日和污染日主要出现在7—10月。惠州市臭氧浓度日变化呈单峰变化, 06—08时最低, 最大值出现在午后14—15时。臭氧浓度变化和气象条件关系密切, 低浓度臭氧大多出现在气温较低、相对湿度和风速较大、云量较多伴有降水、日照时数较小的天气, 臭氧浓度超标多出现在气温较高、相对湿度和风速较小、云量较少一般无降水、日照充足的天气。惠州市臭氧超标主要出现在地面和低空偏西风下, 这可能与惠州市处于珠三角城市群下风向的区域污染输送有关。      

OBSERVATIONAL STUDY ON THE PRE-TROPICAL CYCLONE SQUALL LINE OF 8 AUGUST 2007 OVER THE COAST OF SOUTH CHINA

A squall line in front of the tropical cyclone Pabuk occurred in the west of the Pearl River Delta to Zhanjiang on August 8th, 2007 when the storm approached South China. The development, structure and environmental conditions for this squall line were investigated in this study, with particular attention paid to the possible connection of this squall line with Pabuk. The observational data employed in this study are from soundings, Doppler weather radars and wind profile radars. The following six major conclusions are drawn by our observational analyses. (1) This squall line developed gradually from individual convective cells, and land breeze may be responsible for the onset of the squall line. (2) The path and intensity of the squall line were modulated by the environmental conditions. The squall line propagated along the coastline, and it was stronger on the landing side of the coastline compared with the surrounding in-land regions and oceanic regions. (3) The typical characteristics of tropical squall lines were seen in this squall line, including the cold-pool intensity, vertical structure and the wake flow stratiform precipitation at its developing and mature phases. (4) The environmental conditions of this squall line resemble those of tropical squall lines in terms of deep moist air and low convection condensation level. They also resemble mid-latitude squall lines in terms of the convective instable energy and vertical wind shear in the lower troposphere. (5) Two roles were played by the strong wind around Pabuk. On the one hand, it made the atmosphere more unstable via suppressed shallow convection and increased solar radiation. On the other hand, it enhanced the land-sea thermal contrast and therefore strengthened the sea breeze and the resultant water vapor transport. The sinking temperature inversion prevented the occurrence of low-layer weak convection and accumulated convection instability energy for the development of the strong convection.
