According to numerical modeling results, under a global warming scenario, both propagations were intensified. The enhanced northward propagation in summer can be attributed to the enhanced atmosphere-ocean interaction and the strengthened mean southerly wind; and the intensified eastward propagation in winter is associated with the enhanced convection-wind coupling process and the strengthened equatorial Kevin wave. Future changes of TISO propagations need to be explored in more climate models.展开更多

The results showed that(1) the 30-60 day outgoing longwave radiation anomalies in the southeastern Indian Ocean and the 30-60 day 850-hPa zonal wind anomalies over the equatorial central Indian Ocean were significantly correlated with the IOD index;(2) during positive IOD years, the anomalously cold water in the southeastern Indian Ocean and the 850-hPa anomalous easterlies over the equatorial central Indian Ocean might act as barriers to the continuously eastward propagation of the intraseasonal convection, which interrupts the Madden-Julian oscillation(MJO) propagation in the eastern equatorial Indian Ocean and western Pacific; and(3) during negative IOD years, the anomalously warm water in the southeastern Indian Ocean and the low-level westerly anomalies over the equatorial central Indian Ocean favor the eastward movement of MJO.展开更多

Thus,all international flights and those to Hong Kong and Macao were all moved to Pudong Airport. Besides internationalflights and Hong Kong and Macao flights, the eastward moving also cover some domestic flights, namely flights fromSanya, Haikou, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Zhuhai, Qingdao, Yantai, Weihai, Weifang and so on in Northwest China, Mid-South China,and East China to Shanghai. After the eastward moving, the flight distribution at two airports in Shanghai changed greatly.展开更多

The eastward Sub- tropical Countercurrent (STCC) in the central subtropical gyre has been studied with emphasis on its spatial distribution, vertical structure, volume transport and its nearby eddy phenomenon. The results reproduce the observed feature of STCC, and reveal some new phenomena on isopycnal surface, such as: (1) At σθ = 24.6, there is strong seasonal variability in the distribution, origin and flow status of STCC. There is no STCC in January, February and March. (2) From May to October, a branch of the Kuroshio Countercurrent to the south of Japan merges into STCC, which increases the velocity of STCC and widens its width. (3) The velocity vector field shows that STCC and nearby eddies coexist. (4) The eastward volume transport of STCC across 137.5°E is the strongest in summer with the maximum of 6.9 Sv ( 1 Sv ≡ 106 m3 s?1) in August, and weaker in spring and autumn with 1.7 Sv in April and 1.6 Sv in November. Most of the transports of STCC occur between isopycnal surfaces 24.0σθ and 25.0σθ. (5) The distributions of the zonal flow along 137.5°E show that the flow core of STCC is between 24.3σθ and 24.7σθ .展开更多

Results show that two types of low-fre- quency transiency are available, depending on the intensities of down-drifting troughs. One is that transiency occurs in strength, i.e., the ridge undergoes transient change in intensity with unchanged position; the other is that transiency takes place in pattern, viz., the breakdown of the quasi-stationary character of the ridge's posi- tion, meaning that the ridge is replaced by a trough, followed by multiple transformation between ridge and trough.展开更多

Since the U.S. eastward shift of its strategic focus, the changing China-U.S. relations and major powers games will exert tremendous impacts on the period of strategic opportunities and lead to three new characteristics featuring a more complicated and changeable strategic posture, controllable crisis management and universal values.展开更多
