The results show that the climatological mean MEJ axis extends southwestward-northeastward and that its center lies in the northwest part of the Arabian Peninsula. The south-north shift of the MEJ axis and its intensity show obvious interannual variations that are closely related to the ElNio-Southern Oscillation(ENSO) and the mid-high latitude atmospheric circulation. The zonal symmetric response of the Asian jet to the ENSO-related tropical convective forcing causes the MEJ axis shift, and the Arctic Oscillation(AO)causes the middle-western MEJ axis shift. Due to the influences of both the zonal symmetric response of the Asian jet to the ENSO-related tropical convective forcing and the dynamical role of the AO, an east-west out-of-phase MEJ axis shift is observed. Furthermore, the zonal asymmetric response to the ENSO-related tropical convective forcing can lead to an anomalous Mediterranean convergence(MC) in the high troposphere. The MC anomaly excites a zonal wave train along the Afro-Asian jet, which causes the middle-western MEJ axis shift. Under the effects of both the zonal symmetric response to the ENSO-related tropical convective forcing and the wave train along the Afro-Asian jet excited by the MC anomaly, an east-west in-phase MEJ axis shift pattern is expressed. Finally, the AO affects the MEJ intensity, whereas the East Atlantic(EA) teleconnection influences the middle-western MEJ intensity. Under the dynamical roles of the AO and EA, the change in the MEJ intensity is demonstrated.展开更多

The variation of the shape of the upper-level subtropical jet played an important role in the rainfall over south- ern China. With the eastward movement of the trough, the jet shape changed from two straight jets to a tilting jet over China and then it moved southward. With these variations, the south-north movement of ascending flow and precipitation area over southern China occurred.展开更多

It is concluded that on the one hand, the northward jump of the jet causes the precipitation belt to move northward from the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River valley and withdraw during the Mei-yu season; on the other hand, the westward movement of the jet core has no correspondence with withdrawal of the Mei-yu season. However, the earlier or later occurrence of the westward movement of the jet has an influence on the process of the rain belt moving northward than the northward jump of the jet: the rain belt moves northward from the middle-lower Yangtze River valley to the Huaihe River and then to an area between the Yellow River and Huaihe River during years when the time of the westward movement of the jet core is later than that of the northward jump of the jet and from the middle-lower Yangtze River valley to an area between the Yellow River and Huaihe River in other years. Further analysis shows that: (1) The northward jump of the jet and the westward movement of the East Asian westerly jet core causes significant variation of the general atmospheric circulation in middle latitudes and water vapor transport from the western Pacific, but not from the Bay of Bengal. (2) Impact of the northward jump and the westward movement of the East Asian westerly jet core on circulation are different, therefore, water vapor transport from the western Pacific and its impact on the rain belt are different. The earlier or later occurrence of the westward movement of the jet core than the northward jump of the jet causes the process of circulation and water vapor transport to be different which produces a different process of the rain belt moving northward.展开更多

The results show that PP and NPP both witness an increasing trend over most parts of NWC. In terms of the total precipitation at most stations and the regional mean, contributions from PP have been increasing, while those from NPP have been decreasing. This demonstrates that the wetting trend in NWC is mainly caused by the increase in PP. Through analyzing the large-scale circulation corresponding to regional PP events at several representative levels, we found that the westerly jet at 200 hPa, the ridge/trough systems at 500 hPa, and the Mongolian low at sea level are the key circulation systems responsible for regional PP events over NWC. As for long-term mean changes after and before 1990(a shifting point recognized by previous studies), it is found that the extent of the South Asian high becomes larger and the westerly jet shifts northward by approximately 1.5 degrees in the upper troposphere. The ridge near the Ural Mountains and the ridge downstream of NWC strengthen by approximately 10–30 hPa at 500 hPa. Furthermore, the difference between the Mongolian low trough and its surrounding high pressure increases by approximately 2 hPa at the sea level. The combinations of circulation changes from upper to lower levels facilitate the strengthening of ascending motions. These adjustments in circulations create more favorable conditions for PP to occur over NWC in the last three decades.展开更多

文摘ABSTRACT The third precipitation episode of China's great snowstorms of 2008 was analyzed using station observations and ECMWF six-hourly data. The variation of the shape of the upper-level subtropical jet played an important role in the rainfall over south- ern China. With the eastward movement of the trough, the jet shape changed from two straight jets to a tilting jet over China and then it moved southward. With these variations, the south-north movement of ascending flow and precipitation area over southern China occurred.

文摘Based on China's daily precipitation data of 2415 stations and ERA5 hourly reanalysis data from 1961 to 2019, the station-based and regional precipitation events over Northwest China(NWC) are identified and sorted into persistent precipitation(PP, duration ≥ 2 days) events and non-persistent precipitation(NPP, duration = 1 day) events;and then changes in the persistence structure of the PP and NPP events over NWC and the long-term mean adjustment of the related large-scale circulation configuration are analyzed.
