These changes in ozone concentrations reduce stratospheric column ozone. The reduction in stratospheric column ozone during E1 Nifio Modoki events is more pronounced over the tropical eastern Pacific than over other tropical areas because transport of ozone-poor air from middle-high latitudes in both hemispheres to low latitudes is the strongest between 60°W and 120°W. Because of the decrease in stratospheric column ozone during E1 Nifio Modoki events more UV radiation reaches the tropical troposphere leading to significant increases in tropospheric column ozone An empirical orthogonal function （EOF） analysis of the time series from 1980 to 2010 of stratospheric and tropospheric ozone monthly anomalies reveals that： E1 Nifio Modoki events are associated with the primary EOF modes of both time series. We also found that E1 Nifio Modoki events can affect global ozone more significantly than canonical E1 Nifio events. These results imply that E1 Nifio Modoki is a key contributor to variations in global ozone from 1980 to 2010.展开更多

We show that CH4 emission increases strengthen westerly winds in the Northern Hemisphere midlatitudes, accelerate the Brewer-Dobson （BD） circulation, and cause an increase in the mass flux across the tropopause. However, the BD circulation in the tropics between 10°S and 10°N at 100 hPa weakens as CH4 emissions increase in East Asia and strengthens when CH4 emissions increase in North America. When CH4 emissions are increased by 50% in East Asia and 15% globally, the stratospheric temperature cools by up to 0.15 K, and the stratospheric 03 increases by 45 ppbv and 60 ppbv , respectively. A 50% increase of CH4 emissions in North America （with an amplitude of stratospheric 03 increases by 60 ppbv） has a greater influence on the stratospheric 03 than the same CH4 emissions increase in East Asia. CH4 emission increases in East Asia and North America reduce the concentration of tropospheric hydroxyl radicals （4% and 2%, respectively） and increase the concentration of mid-tropospheric 03 （5% and 4%, respectively） in the Northern Hemisphere midlatitudes. When CH4 emissions increase in East Asia, the increase in the tropospheric 03 concentration is largest in August. When CH4 emissions increase in North America, the increase in the 03 concentration is largest in July in the mid-troposphere, and in April in the upper troposphere.展开更多

Different to the spectral fitting method, which minimizes the difference between the observed and simulated spectra, the ratios of multiple channel-pairs--one weak and one strong absorption channel--are used to retrieve Xc02 from measurements of the shortwave infrared （SWIR） band. Based on sensitivity tests, a super channel-pair is carefully selected to reduce the effects of solar lines, water vapor, air temperature, pressure, instrument noise, and frequency shift on retrieval errors. The new algorithm reduces computational cost and the retrievals are le^s sensitive to temperature and H20 uncertainty than the spectral fitting method. Multi-day Total Carbon Column Observing Network （TCCON） measurements under clear-sky conditions at two sites （Tsukuba and Bremen） are used to derive Xc02 for the algorithm evaluation and validation. The DOAS-like results agree very well with those of the TCCON algorithm after correction of an airmass-dependent bias.展开更多

文摘利用NECP/NCAR FNL客观分析资料驱动中尺度模式WRF,通过4个数值试验模拟分析了2010年不同气象条件下(3月、6月、9月和12月),中国华南地区排放的示踪物向北极地区传输的总量、传输特征及传输机制。模拟结果表明,12月传输到北极地区的示踪物最多,约达到排放总量的44?;9月和6月的次之,约分别为7.5?和7?;3月的最少,只有0.105?。12月,示踪物传输到北极地区所需的时间最短,约为3天;9月和6月分别需要5天和6天;而3月,则需要9天时间。另外,不同月份示踪物传输到北极地区的主要通道所在高度也不同。3月主要集中在850~700 h Pa之间,9月在400~200 h Pa之间,而6月和12月在850 h Pa和200 h Pa的高度上都有浓度较高的传输通道出现。进一步分析发现,示踪物的传输路径主要受环流场控制。较强的经向南风和气旋系统有利于示踪物向北极地区传输;东亚大槽是导致12月排放的示踪物在较短时间内向北极地区传输较多的重要原因。

文摘对流激发的重力波能够向中层大气输送动量和能量,准确获取重力波主要特征对于研究中层大气的动力学和热力学结构非常重要。本文利用COSMIC(constellation observing system for meteorology,ionosphere and climate)资料,结合中尺度数值预报模式WRF(weather research and forecasting),对2010年8月4日发生在华北地区上空的一次对流激发的重力波事件进行分析。结果表明:此次事件激发的重力波在平流层以中低频重力波为主,且在平流层中垂直波长、水平波长分别为9~11 km和650~800 km,约62%的动量聚集在15~25 km高度的低平流层。在对流活动发生期间,低平流层重力波势能密度一直维持较大数值,而上平流层重力波势能密度则在对流减弱后迅速减小,且伴随着下一次对流活动的出现再次迅速增大。平流层不同高度上重力波势能密度对对流活动的响应主要与对流发展高度和背景风场有关,当对流发展较浅时,其激发的重力波在低层西风中易耗散;当对流发展较深到16 km甚至更高时,其激发的重力波接近零风层,并在东风中迅速上传,使得高层重力波势能密度增加较快。

文摘We used a fully coupled chemistry-climate model （version 3 of the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model, WACCM3） to investigate the effect of methane （CH4） emission increases, especially in East Asia and North America, on atmospheric temperature, circulation and ozone （03）. We show that CH4 emission increases strengthen westerly winds in the Northern Hemisphere midlatitudes, accelerate the Brewer-Dobson （BD） circulation, and cause an increase in the mass flux across the tropopause. However, the BD circulation in the tropics between 10°S and 10°N at 100 hPa weakens as CH4 emissions increase in East Asia and strengthens when CH4 emissions increase in North America. When CH4 emissions are increased by 50% in East Asia and 15% globally, the stratospheric temperature cools by up to 0.15 K, and the stratospheric 03 increases by 45 ppbv and 60 ppbv , respectively. A 50% increase of CH4 emissions in North America （with an amplitude of stratospheric 03 increases by 60 ppbv） has a greater influence on the stratospheric 03 than the same CH4 emissions increase in East Asia. CH4 emission increases in East Asia and North America reduce the concentration of tropospheric hydroxyl radicals （4% and 2%, respectively） and increase the concentration of mid-tropospheric 03 （5% and 4%, respectively） in the Northern Hemisphere midlatitudes. When CH4 emissions increase in East Asia, the increase in the tropospheric 03 concentration is largest in August. When CH4 emissions increase in North America, the increase in the 03 concentration is largest in July in the mid-troposphere, and in April in the upper troposphere.
