Results show that the two factors,anomalously large extent of the Arctic sea ice cover and anomalously warm sea surface temperature over the Central-eastern Equatorial Pacific Ocean, play substantially the equal role in the effect on the summer general circulation, and either of them can notably induce the atmospheric anomalies. The main dynamical processes determining the effect of the Arctic sea ice and the equatorial SST anomalies are associated with two leading teleconnection patterns, i. e. the Asia North/American and Eurasian patterns observed in atmosphere. The results presented in this paper again prove that the general circulation is fundamentally motivated by the non-uniform heating between the equator and the pole on the rotating earth.展开更多

They are different from classical tide-forming forces. The atmospheric tides in the troposphere dcpend primarily upon the tide-forming forces at the time of astronomical singularities. There are three resonance areas, i. c., the areas close to 54.7°and 90°from the sublunar point at the time of astronomical singularities, and the ≤2°area of the sublunar point. The superposition of the resonance arcas of sevcral astronomical singularities may excite anomalies of the atmospheric circulation, including the adjustment and continual anomalies of the extra-long waves, the subtropical high and the blocking situation. It is hopcd that our research can make contributions to thc improvement of medium-range, monthly and seasonai numerical predictions.展开更多

Under the conditions of near-resonance and weak baroclinic instability,the features of solution in phase space are discussed with the analytical methods of multiple scale and discontinuous oscillation.The results show that the dynamic coupling between forced wave and transient wave is responsible for the physical mechanism of the non-uniform index cycle of the atmospheric circulation.展开更多
