The 55 moored buoys are used to validate them by using the 30 min and 25 km collocation window. Furthermore, the objectively analyzed air-sea heat fluxes（OAFlux） products and the National Centers for Environmental Prediction-National Center for Atmospheric Research reanalysis 2（NCEP2） products are also used for global comparisons. The mean biases of sensible and latent heat fluxes between Wind Sat flux results and buoy flux data are –0.39 and –8.09 W/m^2, respectively. In addition, the rootmean-square（RMS） errors of the sensible and latent heat fluxes between them are 5.53 and 24.69 W/m^2,respectively. The RMS errors of sensible and latent heat fluxes are observed to gradually increase with an increasing buoy wind speed. The difference shows different characteristics with an increasing sea surface temperature, air humidity, and air temperature. The zonal average latent fluxes have some high regions which are mainly located in the trade wind zones where strong winds carry dry air in January, and the maximum value centers are found in the eastern waters of Japan and on the US east coast. Overall, the seasonal variability is pronounced in the Indian Ocean, the Pacific Ocean, and the Atlantic Ocean. The three sensible and latent heat fluxes have similar latitudinal dependencies; however, some differences are found in some local regions.展开更多

Correlation analysis was used to roughly evaluate daily rainfall for the whole of China and a combination of RPC (rotated principal component) and wavelet analyses was applied to data on observed and combined daily rainfall to obtain a detailed evaluation of the quality of these combined datasets in 6 selected major rainfall regions of eastern China. The results showed that except for intraweekly fluctuation, the best combination was roughly similar to or accorded well with observation in the aspects of space variation patterns and long period rainfall fluctuations related to monsoon onset and serious meteorologic disasters, indicating that this combination yielded better values of long term daily mean and standard deviation through the pentad CMAP (CPC Merged Analysis of Precipitation), and can also represent rainfall fluctuations through the reanalyzed daily rainfall.展开更多

文摘河南连续运行参考系统(Continuously Operating Reference Stations,CORS)有63个测站,但仅有6个测站安装有气象传感器,而且数据极其不完整,而气象数据对于(Global Positioning System,GPS)反演水汽十分重要。针对这一问题,研究了利用欧洲中期天气预报中心(European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts,ECMWF)的再分析资料插值河南测站的气象参数和大气可降水量(Precipitable Water Vapor,PWV)。研究结果表明:插值的气压平均偏差和均方根误差在1 hpa以内,气温平均偏差和均方根误差在5 K左右;针对气温插值结果偏差稍大的问题,对插值温度进行改正,能提高50%左右的精度;将实测气象参数的GPS/PWV和无线电探空的Radio/PWV作为真值,证明了利用插值的气象参数估计河南地区GPS/PWV的精度完全满足需求,进一步提高河南CORS系统在气象方面的应用价值。
