Based on the statistics of typhoon in the Haikou Bay and numerical calculation of stormy current, the mechanism of water quality variation caused by typhoon is discussed. The typhoon impact on the Haikou Bay usually appears between July and November, most usually between August and October. The monitoring results before a typhoon were different from that. The stormy wave and windstorm cur-rent stir up the sediment in near-shore bottom and make the bottom water mix with the surface water strongly, specially windstorm current with strong velocity at the head of the bay stirs up higher pollutants sediment near sea area of sewage outfall, and heavy rain with typhoon carries the pollutants from land through the Nandu River to the Haikou Bay, so the contents of COD, PO4 - P, NO4 - N, NO3 ~N, SiO3 after a typhoon are higher than those before. Windstorm current is violent, which makes offshore high DO water exchange more frequently with inner bay water and oxygen in the air dissolves in sea water faster, so DO content after typhoon is higher than that before typhoon. This strong action of water exchange also causes lower pH change before and after the typhoon.展开更多

For the sake of verifying the impact of GNSS radio occultation (RO) measurements to the data assimilation system, three experiments have been conducted. The statistical results of the analysis error experiment and forecast skill experiment show that the GNSS RO measurements have an impact on the analysis system. The typhoon forecast experiment shows the impact on the important weather process. They all have a positive impact on the weather forecast. Lastly, we look forward to future work on the observation system simulation experiment (OSSE) to investigate the impact of GNSS RO measurements as a function of observation number, which is an effective method to estimate the saturation of the observation number.展开更多
