Abstract

The variations in extreme precipitation and their relation to large-scale climate circulation were investigated over a typical transitional climate zone named the Qinling-Dabashan Mountains from 1961 to 2018. In this study, the spatial and temporal variations in eleven extreme precipitation indices are determined using the Sen’s method, Mann test and heuristic segmentation method. The relations between extreme precipitation and the Asia summer monsoon are analyzed by cross wavelet transform methods. The major findings of this research are as follows: (1) the spatial distribution of extreme precipitation changes over time in the Qinling-Dabashan Mountains: higher precipitation intensity occur in the middle and southeastern regions, while other regions exhibit adverse variation patterns. (2) Temporally, the regional trends of only the annual total wet day precipitation are dominant in the Qinling-Dabashan Mountains and its subregions. However, the regional trends of extreme precipitation are not statistically significant. In addition, the extreme precipitation in the Qinling-Dabashan Mountains and its subregions was sensitive to environmental changes from 1961 to 2018, including intensive human activity, the Asian summer monsoon and steep terrain. Sensitivity to environmental change im-plies flash floods and other natural disasters from 1961 to 2018. (3) The East Asian Summer Monsoon has a stronger influence than the South Asian Summer Monsoon on extreme precipitation. The results of this research will aid decision-makers in their response to recent climate change scenarios in the Qinling-Dabashan Mountains.
秦巴山极端降水变化及其与亚洲夏季风的关系
研究了1961—2018年秦岭—大巴山典型过渡带极端降水的变化及其与大尺度气候环流的关系。本文采用Sen’s法、Mann检验和启发式分割法确定了11个极端降水指标的时空变化特征。利用交叉小波变换分析了亚洲夏季风与极端降水的关系。研究结果表明:(1)秦岭—大巴山极端降水空间分布随时间的变化特征为:中部和东南部降水强度较大,其他地区降水强度相对较小;(2)在时间上,秦巴山区及其分区仅以年总湿日数降水为主。极端降水的区域变化趋势不具有统计学意义。此外,1961 - 2018年秦岭-大巴山及其分区极端降水对强烈的人类活动、亚洲夏季风和陡峭地形等环境变化敏感。从1961年到2018年,对环境变化的敏感性意味着山洪暴发和其他自然灾害。(3)东亚夏季风对极端降水的影响强于南亚夏季风。该研究结果将有助于决策者应对秦岭-大巴山地区近期气候变化情景。
