    2004, 30(4):6-10. DOI: 10.7519/j.issn.1000-0526.2004.4.002
    [Abstract](828) [HTML](0) [PDF 2.39 M](1069)
    Abstract:
    With limited area meso-scale numerical model under η-coordinate,sensitivity experiments of retrieving model humidity profiles by one-dimensional variational assimilation of digital weather radar-derived precipitation are studied for the abrupt heavy rainfall along the Yangtze River in the east part of Hubei Province. Results show as follows. Different initial values X(0)of humidity profiles have great effects on the decline of the object function, and different initial evaluation schemes of humidity profiles have substantial effects on the results of rainfall variational assimilation under the special condition that model background precipitation equals to zero while observation precipitation does not equal to zero.

    Abstract:
    Based on NCEP/NCAR reanalysis data(1958-1997) and monthly-mean rainfall data(1951-1998) at 160 stations, the characteristics of summer Eliassen-Palm (E-P) flux in drought/flood years of the Changjiang and Huaihe valley are analyzed. Results indicate that the E-P flux show strong convergence at the regions of 40°N (30°N) in drought (flood) years, which is in well consistent with rainfall distributions. The different distributions of E-P flux in drought/flood years lead to the enhanced upper level westerly jet in the vicinity of 40°N (30°N) in drought(flood) years and further to the enhanced wind field divergence in the upper level and convergence in the lower level at the corresponding region which is favorable to the formation of rainfall and is an important factor for the distributions of rainfall in the Changjiang and Huaihe valley and in China.

    赵宇 杨晓霞 孙兴池
    2004, 30(4):15-19. DOI: 10.7519/j.issn.1000-0526.2004.4.004
    [Abstract](1046) [HTML](0) [PDF 2.96 M](1328)
    Abstract:
    By using the theory of moist potential vorticity(MPV),the characteristics of MPV are analyzed in the process of two rainstorms caused by typhoon or weaken typhoon circulation in Shandong Province. The results show that the two heavy rain events occurred in the very stiff and dense section of moist isentropes, which can lead to the development of moist slantwise vorticity. MPV1<0 and MPV2>0 in the low troposphere reflect the development of convective and baroclinic instability . The downward spread of high from the upper troposphere is also of an advantage to the release and deposit of instability energy and the results in the amplification of rainstorm.

    [Abstract](954) [HTML](0) [PDF 2.84 M](1184)
    Abstract:
    General Circulation features over the Northern Hemisphere in 2003 are analyzed. It's shown that the subtropical high at 500hPa over the western Pacific in the winter of 2002/2003 and the spring and the summer and the autumn of 2003 was stronger than normal.The 500hPa geopotential height anomaly was positive for most of the cases over the Northern Hemisphere in 2003. Both in the summer and autumn,the 500hPa geopotential height anomaly of Tibetan Plateau was positive. The East Asian monsoon was stronger than normal in July and August.The equatorial convergence zone was not more active than nomal.The SSTa in the eastern tropical Pacific was nomal in 2003. The results show that the anomalies of both the tropical Pacific sea temperature and atmospheric circulation would exert a significant impact on the weather and climate in China.

    [Abstract](727) [HTML](0) [PDF 1.97 M](1088)
    Abstract:
    In 2003 (from December 2002 to November 2003), the characteristics of weather and climate in China were summarized as follows:the annual precipitation was more than normal with higher temperature. The annual precipitation in China was 33.9mm more than normal, but its temporal and spatial distribution were uneven. In North China there was more rainfall, in contrast to the deficient counterpart in southern China. The severe flooding appeared in the Huaihe valley during flooding season (June-Aug.) and in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River during the autumn. However, the large-scale drought happened in Northeast China during the spring, and in the South China during the summer and autumn. The annual mean temperature in China was 0.6℃ higher than normal, which was warmer than normal for the seventh successive year. Particularly, the temperatures in the south of China were markedly higher than normal. The areas of South China (south of the Yangtze River) were frequently hit by anomalous hot wave in summer. The meteorological disasters frequently predominated China during 2003. More lose were caused by drought, rainstorm-caused flooding, anomalous high temperature, low temperature with continuing rainfall, and hail.

    [Abstract](744) [HTML](0) [PDF 2.66 M](1032)
    Abstract:
    A sand-storm event occurred on the 6st April 2001 in North China is discussed. The results show, (1) the strong cold wave of the west Siberia and the surface warm and low pressure in southern Xinjiang and Mongolia offered the event dynamic and thermodynamic conditions, therefore the warmness and dryness made topsoil not been frozen, which provided lots of sand to the sandstorm weather. (2) The sandy weather caused serious accident of air pollution and made the air quality in Lanzhou even worse by 2 to 5 time. (3) The sand weather had positive and negative effect on the total solar radiation in Lanzhou. In the daytime, the sandy weather would diminish the absorbability of the surface net radiation and restrain the surface temperature. In the evening, it would diminish the emanation of the net radiation and restrain the surface temperature dropping.
