The results show that the SNAO is related to NH land SAT, but this linkage has varied on decadal timescales over the last 52 years, with a strong connection appearing after the late 1970s, but a weak connection before. The mechanism governing the relationship between the SNAO and NH land SAT is discussed based on the NCEP/NCAR reanalysis data. The results indicate that such a variable relationship may result from changes of the SNAO mode around the late 1970s. The SNAO pattern was centered mainly over the North Atlantic before the late 1970s, and thus had a weak influence on the NH land SAT. But after the late 1970s, the SNAO pattern shifted eastward and its southern center was enhanced in magnitude and extent, which transported the SNAO signal to the North Atlantic surrounding continents and even to central East Asia via an upper level wave train along the Asian jet.展开更多

文摘利用相关分析和经验正交分解方法对过去57aNCEP-NCAR夏季亚洲-北太平洋地区海平面气压场进行了分析,揭示了一种新的遥相关模态,即阿拉伯半岛-北太平洋型遥相关(Arabian Peninsula-North Pacific Oscillation,APNPO).研究表明,APNPO在本质上反映的是对流层低层北太平洋高压和南亚夏季风低压之间的一种共变特征,它的变化与亚洲夏季风的变化之间有着密切的联系.在年际尺度上,APNPO与东亚夏季风(East Asian summer monsoon,EASM)和南亚夏季风(South Asian summer monsoon,SASM)均存在显著的关联;在年代际尺度上,该遥相关与东亚夏季风的关系更为密切:两者均在20世纪60年代中期和70年代末发生了两次明显的年代际突变.通过分析与APNPO相关的环流场,探讨了APNPO与亚洲夏季风联系的物理过程.发现当APNPO偏强时,索马里急流、SASM气流、EASM气流以及南亚高压均得到加强,同时还通过高层的纬向波列在中国东北地区上空形成了一个异常的反气旋性环流.此外,强的APNPO还可加强对亚洲季风区的水汽输送,由此在印度半岛及中国华北地区造成强的水汽辐合.所有的这些大气环流和水汽条件的改变最终导致亚洲夏季风及印度和中国华北地区降水的异常.研究还发现APNPO的变化从春到夏具有较好的持续性,春季的APNPO与亚洲夏季风变化也存在显著的相关关系.从这个意义上讲,春季APNPO变化的超前性对于后期亚洲夏季风降水的预测具有潜在的重要参考价值.
