Both the interaction of a cyclonic vortex with vorticity lumps and the interaction of the vortex with the shearing basic flow may induce the strengthening of the vortex in a short period, however, the vortex intensity still shows a general decreasing tendency over the whole integration time period. The interaction among the shearing basic flow, cyclonic vortex, and multiple vorticity lumps can change the tendency. The merging of the cyclonic vortex with vorticity lumps in the shearing basic flow of positive vorticity is directly responsible for the maintenance and development of the cyclonic vortex.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

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

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
