摘要

摘要: 本文利用奇异值分解方法(SVD)和一些卫星数据,研究了1993至2013年冬季吕宋岛西温度锋的年际变化,发现吕宋岛西温度锋的面积和强度都有明显的年际变化.利用SVD进一步研究发现,温度锋的年际变化与厄尔尼诺现象高度相关,且Niño3.4指数和温度锋的第一主成分的相关系数可以达到-0.65.其动力机制描述如下:在厄尔尼诺(拉尼娜)年,东亚季风减弱(加强),引起更弱的(更强的)局地风应力,导致了吕宋冷涡减弱(加强),最后导致了温度锋减弱(加强).

Abstract: Interannual variability of thermal front west of Luzon Island during the winter of 1993-2013 is examined with the method of singular value decomposition (SVD) and a suite of satellite measurements in this paper. It is found that both the area and intensity of the thermal front west of Luzon Island show apparent interannual variability. Further study based on SVD shows that the interannual variability of the thermal front is highly associated with El Niño and Southern Oscillation (ENSO), and the correlation coefficient between Niño3.4 index and the first Principal Component (PC1) of thermal front can reach -0.65. The mechanism can be described as follows. In El Niño (La Ni.a) years, the East Asian winter monsoon (EAWM) is weakened (enhanced), inducing weaker (stronger) local wind stress curl (WSC) west of Luzon Island, and resulting in weakened (enhanced) Luzon cold eddy, which finally leads to the weakening (enhancement) of the thermal front.
