Abstract

Persistent extreme precipitation events (PEPEs) in Southeast China cause casualties and economic losses, and accurate simulations of these events continue to face significant challenges. This study identifies critical features associated with PEPEs during boreal summer in this region, such as both cool land surface and air at 850 hPa, indicating strong land-atmosphere interactions. Vertical soil water flow (VSWF) significantly affects near-surface soil hydro-thermodynamics and can potentially enhance the PEPEs' simulation. However, VSWF is often ignored in land surface models. To improve the simulation of PEPEs, the VSWF term is incorporated into the soil heat transfer equation within the Noah-MP model coupled with the Weather Research and Forecasting model, improving the simulation of PEPEs. Further analysis reveals that incorporating VSWF strengthens the cold features of PEPEs and improves precipitation simulation. Detailed examination shows that incorporating VSWF induces a secondary circulation anomaly and a positive geopotential height anomaly in Southeast China compared to simulations without VSWF. The southeast flank of the anticyclone anomaly reduces water vapor transport, while the northwest flank enhances it. Additionally, the geopotential height anomaly triggers adjustments in downstream regions of Southeast China, depending on changes in downstream circulation patterns of PEPEs. This research contributes to a better understanding of land-atmosphere interactions, particularly the effects of VSWF on PEPEs in Southeast China.

土壤垂直水流对中国东南部夏季持续极端降水事件的局地和下游影响
中国东南部持续极端降水事件(PEPEs)造成人员伤亡和经济损失,其准确模拟仍面临重大挑战。本研究确定了该地区北方夏季与PEPEs相关的关键特征,如850 hPa的凉爽陆地表面和空气,表明强烈的陆地-大气相互作用。垂直土壤水流(VSWF)对近地表土壤水热力学有显著影响,可以增强PEPEs的模拟效果。然而,在地表模型中,VSWF往往被忽略。为了改进PEPEs的模拟,在Noah-MP模型中结合天气研究与预报模型,将VSWF项纳入土壤传热方程,提高了PEPEs的模拟效果。进一步分析表明,VSWF的加入强化了PEPEs的冷特征,改善了降水模拟。详细分析表明,与不考虑VSWF的模拟相比,考虑VSWF的模拟引起了中国东南部的二次环流异常和正位势高度异常。反气旋异常的东南侧翼减少水汽输送,而西北侧翼则增强水汽输送。此外,位势高度异常对东南下游地区的调整依赖于PEPEs下游环流型的变化。该研究有助于更好地理解陆地-大气相互作用,特别是VSWF对东南地区PEPEs的影响。
