Increases of atmospheric ozone content were observed in March 1989 at Beijing, China. This is possible result of disturbance by the great solar flares. The mechanism is simply discussed in this paper.

In contrast,the small-sized aerosols represented by the fine-mode AOT,which are primarily generated over the land by human activities,do not have evident seasonalscale fluctuations.A persistent maximum of aerosol loadings centered over the Sichuan basin is associated with considerable amounts of fine-mode aerosols throughout the year.Most regions exhibit a general spring maximum. During the summer,however,the aerosol loadings are the most marked over north central China.This occurrence may result from anthropogenic fine particles,such as sulfate and nitrate.Four typical regions were selected to perform a covariation analysis of the monthly gridded AOT and SSA.Over southwestern and southeastern China,if the aerosol loadings are small to moderate they are composed primarily of the highly absorptive aerosols. However,more substantial aerosol loadings probably represent less-absorptive aerosols.The opposite covariation pattern occurring over the coastal-adjacent oceans suggests that the polluted oceanic atmosphere is closely correlated with the windward terrestrial aerosols.North central China is strongly affected by dust aerosols that show moderate absorption.This finding may explain the lower variability in the SSA that accompanies increasing aerosol loadings in this region.展开更多

文摘利用2005年1月至2017年12月搭载在美国环境监测Aura卫星上的臭氧监测仪(Ozone Monitoring Instrument,OMI)数据和NCEP气象资料,在夏季风环流指数定义方法的基础上,重新定义了南亚区域冬季风环流指数,并分别计算了南亚夏季风和冬季风环流指数.结合冬夏两季环流的强弱变化采用相关分析、合成分析和奇异值分解(Singular Value Decomposition,SVD)等方法,探讨了环流异常形势下臭氧的时空变化特征.结果表明:(1)南亚夏季纬向环流与经向环流的强度变化存在一致性,冬季经向环流与纬向环流的强度变化差异较大.(2)南亚臭氧柱总量的季节变化明显,且近13年来臭氧柱总量整体呈上升趋势.(3)夏季(冬季)风环流指数与对流层中低(中高)层和平流层中低层臭氧的相关性显著,但夏季平流层和对流层的相关趋势相反.(4)夏季风环流增强对应青藏高原-伊朗高原上空及南侧区域的上升运动增强,对臭氧的输送作用是造成对流层臭氧分布呈现差异的原因.(5)冬季风环流强弱期的垂直上升和下沉运动中心的移动,以及南北向、东西向气流交汇区的差异是造成臭氧分布不同的原因.
