A bi-hemispheric covariation mode(hereafter BHCM) is explored, which is well represented by the first mode of the SVD analysis of sea surface pressure anomaly(SLPA-SVD1). This SVD mode can explain 57.36% of the total covariance of SLPA. BHCM varies in time with a long-term trend and periodicities of 3—5 years. The long term trend revealed by SVD1 shows that the SLP increases in the equatorial central and eastern Pacific but decreases in the western Pacific and tropical Indian Ocean, which facilitates easterlies in the lower troposphere to be intensified and El Ni觡o events to occur with lower frequency. The spatial pattern of the BHCM looks roughly symmetric about the equator in the tropics, whereas it is characterized by zonal disturbances in the mid-latitude of NH and is highly associated with AAO in the mid-latitude of SH. On inter-annual time scales, the BHCM is highly correlated with ENSO. The atmosphere in both the NH and SH responds to sea surface temperature anomalies in the equatorial region, while the contemporaneous circulation changes in the NH and SH in turn affect the occurrence of El Ni觡o/La Ni觡a. In boreal winter, significant temperature and precipitation anomalies associated with the BHCM are found worldwide. Specifically, in the positive phase of the BHCM,temperature and precipitation are anomalously low in eastern China and some other regions of East Asia. These results are helpful for us to better understand interactions between circulations in the NH and SH and the dynamical mechanisms behind these interactions.展开更多
文摘利用近42 a NCEP/NCAR再分析资料,NOAA(National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration)海表温度,CPC(Climate Prediction Center)降水以及中国台站降水观测资料等,对6-7月西太平洋副热带高压(Western Pacific Subtropical High,WPSH)变动的主要模态和形成原因,及其对中国梅雨期降水分布的影响进行了探讨。结果表明,WPSH主要异常模态依次为全区一致型(Ⅰ),南北异常型(Ⅱ)、东西异常型(Ⅲ)和中心异常型(Ⅳ)。不同异常型的出现受中纬度上游西风带准定常扰动和低纬扰动的不同影响,而后者又与对流层低层大气对不同海温异常型热力强迫响应有关。来自热带中东太平洋的海平面气温异常(Sea Surface Temperature Anomaly,SSTA)信号有利于副热带高压出现第Ⅰ、Ⅱ型异常;第Ⅲ、Ⅳ型异常则分别受海洋性大陆或西北太平洋下垫面热力影响。长江-黄河-日本沿线以及江南和东北地区降水与副热带高压第Ⅰ、Ⅲ、Ⅳ型异常密切联系。
