In the control experiment （CTL）, the TC frequency was considerably overestimated. Additionally, the tracks of some TCs tended to have larger radii of curvature and were shifted eastward. The large-scale environments of westerly monsoon flows and subtropical Pacific highs were unreasonably simulated. The overestimated frequency of TC formation was attributed to a strengthened westerly wind field in the southern quadrants of the TC center. In comparison with the experiment with the spectral nudging method, the strengthened wind speed was mainly modulated by large-scale flow that was greater than approximately 1000 km in the model domain. The spurious formation and undesirable tracks of TCs in the CTL were considerably improved by reproducing realistic large-scale atmospheric monsoon circulation with substantial adjustment between large-scale flow in the model domain and large-scale boundary forcing modified by the spectral nudging method. The realistic monsoon circulation took a vital role in simulating realistic TCs. It revealed that, in the downscaling from large-scale fields for regional climate simulations, scale interaction between model-generated regional features and forced large-scale fields should be considered, and spectral nudging is a desirable method in the downscaling method.展开更多

First time attempt has been made to understandthe problem of maintenance of low frequency waves for tropical weather system by using this technique.The TOGAbasic level ill daily wind analyses on a 2.5 degree square grid around the global zone from 20°S-30°N at 200 hpa for92-day periods covering June, July and August of 1988 are used. Kinetic energy is gained at high frequencies and lostat low frequencies.In the planetary scale dynamics over tropics, barotropic nonlinear energy transfer plays a negativerole.Low frequency wave of period 45 day loses maximum amount of energy when it interacted with frequencies ofperiods 92 day and 30 day.45 day cycle is also the main source of energy for other frequencies. Distrubances of periodl 5 day gain maximum amount of energy.The major contribution comes from the triad interaction of the frequencies<7,l,6>.North of 20'N low frequency waves of period 30 to 92--day gain energy through nonlinear triadinteraction with the maximum gain at 22.5'N. The study may help to investigate the rapid loss of predictability of lowfrequency modes over tropics.展开更多

The aggregation of HCPCF on CTAB obeys the Langmuir isothermal adsorption and the interaction of RE with the HCPCF CTAB aggregate was first found to accord with the monolayer binding. The effects of temperature and ionic strength of solution on the aggregations were made. The binary aggregate and the ternary complex were characterized.展开更多
