Utilizing the Chinese Meteorological Forcing Dataset to drive the Community Land Model, version 5.0, this study simulates the spatial and temporal characteristics of active layer thickness (ALT) on the Tibetan Plateau (TP) from 1980 to 2020. Results show that the ALT, primarily observed in the central and western parts of the TP where there are insufficient station observations, exhibits significant interdecadal changes after 2000. The average thickness on the TP decreases from 2.54 m during 1980–1999 to 2.28 m during 2000–2020. This change is mainly observed in the western permafrost region, displaying a sharp regional inconsistency compared to the eastern region. A persistent increasing trend of ALT is found in the eastern permafrost region, rather than an interdecadal change. The aforementioned changes in ALT are closely tied to the variations in the surrounding atmospheric environment, particularly air temperature. Additionally, the area of the active layer on the TP displays a profound interdecadal change around 2000, arising from the permafrost thawing and forming. It consistently decreases before 2000 but barely changes after 2000. The regional variation in the permafrost active layer over the TP revealed in this study indicates a complex response of the contemporary climate under global warming.</p><p>摘要</p><p>活动层是多年冻土和大气之间的缓冲层, 对气候波动十分敏感, 其冻融变化对多年冻土区的地球生物化学循环有较大影响. 本研究利用高分辨率气象数据集CMFD和陆面过程模式CLM5.0模拟分析了青藏高原1980–2020年活动层的变化. 结果表明: 青藏高原的活动层厚度在2000年后有显著的年代际变化, 青藏高原整体活动层厚度由1980–1999的2.54 m减少到2000–2020年的2.28 m. 这种变化主要发生在西部的多年冻土区, 与东部相比存在明显的区域差异. 在东部, 多年冻土区的活动层厚度呈持续增加趋势, 而不是年代际变化. 此外, 活动层面积在2000年也发生了年代际突变, 之前持续下降, 但之后几乎没有变化. 本文还发现青藏高原多年冻土活动层的区域变化受到气温和降水等环境因子的显著影响, 这反映了其在全球变暖背景下对气候变化的复杂响应.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47210,"journal":{"name":"Atmospheric and Oceanic Science Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1674283424000850/pdfft?md5=5bdbe6b3d2873446dbdfcebd7b8938c7&pid=1-s2.0-S1674283424000850-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141392826","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

How to develop a reliable projection remains inconclusive. Here, based on the IPCC AR6–assessed likely range of equilibrium climate sensitivity (ECS) and the climatological precipitation performance, the authors constrain the CMIP6 (phase 6 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project) model projection of summer precipitation and water availability over the TP. The best estimates of precipitation changes are 0.24, 0.25, and 0.45 mm d⁻¹ (5.9 %, 6.1 %, and 11.2 %) under the Shared Socioeconomic Pathway (SSP) scenarios of SSP1–2.6, SSP2–4.5, and SSP5–8.5 from 2050–2099 relative to 1965–2014, respectively. The corresponding constrained projections of water availability measured by precipitation minus evaporation (P–E) are 0.10, 0.09, and 0.22 mm d⁻¹ (5.7 %, 4.9 %, and 13.2 %), respectively. The increase of precipitation and P–E projected by the high-ECS models, whose ECS values are higher than the upper limit of the likely range, are about 1.7 times larger than those estimated by constrained projections. Spatially, there is a larger increase in precipitation and P–E over the eastern TP, while the western part shows a relatively weak difference in precipitation and a drier trend in P–E. The wetter TP projected by the high-ECS models resulted from both an approximately 1.2–1.4 times stronger hydrological sensitivity and additional warming of 0.6 °C–1.2 °C under all three scenarios during 2050–2099. This study emphasizes that selecting climate models with climate sensitivity within the likely range is crucial to reducing the uncertainty in the projection of TP precipitation and water availability changes.</p><p>摘要</p><p>青藏高原是气候变化敏感区, 可靠的气候预估对气候变化应对至关重要. 青藏高原夏季降水变化的预估结果在CMIP6气候模式间存在较大的不确定性, 原因部分地和这些模式对温室气体强迫的敏感度不同有关. 作者在对CMIP6模式性能进行评估基础上, 选择了具有较高气候态降水模拟技巧的模式用于预估研究, 并根据IPCC AR6估算的平衡态气候敏感度 (ECS) 的可能性范围, 对青藏高原夏季降水的中远期 (2050–2099) 变化进行约束. 结果表明, 在SSP1–2.6, SSP2–4.5 和 SSP5–8.5情景下, 青藏高原夏季降水将分别增多0.24, 0.25 和 0.45 mm d⁻¹ (5.9 %, 6.1 %, 和 11.2 %), 水资源可用性 (P–E) 将分别增加0.10, 0.09和0.22 mm d⁻¹(5.7 %, 4.9 % 和13.2 %) . 与约束预估相比, 高ECS模式预估的水文敏感度约为约束后的1.2–1.4倍, 升温幅度偏高0.6 °C–1.2 °C, 这二者共同导致高ECS模式预估的高原降水增幅约为约束预估的1.7倍. 本文指出气候敏感度是影响未来青藏高原水资源预估不确定性的重要来源, 同时基于IPCC AR6对ECS的最佳估算, 给出了高原夏季降水和水资源的最佳预估结果.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47210,"journal":{"name":"Atmospheric and Oceanic Science Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1674283424000862/pdfft?md5=68c7bec658cb012bffbe4f08b8df1040&pid=1-s2.0-S1674283424000862-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142161546","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Dangxiong alpine meadow ecosystem, located in the south-central part of the Tibetan Plateau, is a typical example. To understand the carbon and water fluxes, water use efficiency (WUE), and their responses to future climate change for the alpine meadow ecosystem in the Dangxiong area, two parameter estimation methods, the Model-independent Parameter Estimation (PEST) and the Dynamic Dimensions Search (DDS), were used to optimize the Biome-BGC model. Then, the gross primary productivity (GPP) and evapotranspiration (ET) were simulated. The results show that the DDS parameter calibration method has a better performance. The annual GPP and ET show an increasing trend, while the WUE shows a decreasing trend. Meanwhile, ET and GPP reach their peaks in July and August, respectively, and WUE shows a “dual-peak” pattern, reaching peaks in May and November. Furthermore, according to the simulation results for the next nearly 100 years, the ensemble average GPP and ET exhibit a significant increasing trend, and the growth rate under the SSP5–8.5 scenario is greater than that under the SSP2–4.5 scenario. WUE shows an increasing trend under the SSP2–4.5 scenario and a significant increasing trend under the SSP5–8.5 scenario.

In this study, the authors investigate the projected changes in such events over the TP and its surrounding areas based on an ensemble of a set of 21st century climate change projections using a regional climate model, RegCM4. The model is driven by five CMIP5 global climate models at a grid spacing of 25 km, under the RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 pathways. Four modified ETCCDI extreme indices—namely, SNOWTOT, S1mm, S10mm, and Sx5day—are employed to characterize the extreme snowfall events. RegCM4 generally reproduces the spatial distribution of the indices over the region, although with a tendency of overestimation. For the projected changes, a general decrease in SNOWTOT is found over most of the TP, with greater magnitude and better cross-simulation agreement over the eastern part.

This paper summarizes the scientific achievements obtained from the data collected by the INVC observation network and highlights the progress in investigating the development of heavy rainfall events associated with water vapor changes. The rain gauge network of the INVC can represent the impacts of the Yarlung Zsangbo Grand Canyon (YGC) topography on precipitation at the hourly scale. The microphysical characteristics of the precipitation in the YGC are different than those in the lowland area. The GPM-IMERG (Integrated Multi-satellitE Retrievals for Global Precipitation Measurement) satellite precipitation data for the YGC region should be calibrated before they are used. The meridional water vapor flux through the YGC is more important than the zonal flux for the precipitation over the southeastern TP. The decreased precipitation around the YGC region is partly due to the decreased meridional water vapor flux passing through the YGC. High-resolution numerical models can benefit precipitation forecasting in this region by using a combination of specific schemes that capture the valley wind and water vapor flux along the valley floor.</p><p>摘要</p><p>第二次青藏高原科学考察研究在青藏高原东南部组建了雅鲁藏布大峡谷水汽通道科学考察分队, 本文主要总结了该科考分队近几年开展的观测研究以及利用该分队建立的观测网收集的观测数据所取得的科学成果, 重点介绍了与大峡谷水汽输送相关的强降雨过程的研究进展; 研究主要发现科考分队在大峡谷建立的雨量筒观测网可以代表该地区地形对小时降水量的空间影响; 藏东南降水的微物理特征与低海拔地区有明显差异; GPM卫星降水数据在大峡谷地区存在干偏差的问题, 使用前需进行校准; 穿越大峡谷的经向水汽输送对青藏高原东南部的降水有重要影响, 大峡谷周边区域降水量的减少可能是由于穿越大峡谷经向水汽通量的减少造成; 使用特定云降水方案的高分辨率数值模型可以较好的捕捉大峡谷内的风场和水汽输送时, 该模型能对该地区夜间强降水做出准确预报.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47210,"journal":{"name":"Atmospheric and Oceanic Science Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1674283424000102/pdfft?md5=eafc877f376f6713edcfbb4d393eee74&pid=1-s2.0-S1674283424000102-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139455693","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, data from TESEBS (Topographical Enhanced Surface Energy Balance System), remote sensing data from eight cloud-free scenarios, and observational data from nine stations are utilized to examine the fluctuations in the surface heat flux on both slopes. The inclusion of MCD43A3 satellite data enhances the surface albedo, contributing to more accurate simulation outcomes. The model results are validated using observational data. The RMSEs of the net radiation, ground heat, sensible heat, and latent heat flux are 40.73, 17.09, 33.26, and 30.91 W m⁻², respectively. The net radiation flux is greater on the south slope and exhibits a rapid decline from summer to autumn. Due to the influence of the monsoon, on the north slope, the maximum sensible heat flux occurs in the pre-monsoon period in summer and the maximum latent heat flux occurs during the monsoon. The south slope experiences the highest latent heat flux in summer. The dominant flux on the north slope is sensible heat, while it is latent heat on the south slope. The seasonal variations in the ground heat flux are more pronounced on the south slope than on the north slope. Except in summer, the ground heat flux on the north slope surpasses that on the south slope.</p><p>摘要</p><p>珠穆朗玛峰南北坡独特的地形条件和复杂的下垫面, 导致了南北坡地表通量分布的显著差异. 本文利用地形增强地表能量平衡模式 (Topographical Enhanced Surface Energy Balance System (TESEBS)), 遥感数据和站点观测数据, 对季风和非季风期南北坡的地表热通量变化进行了研究. 首先, 把MCD43A3卫星数据加入TESEBS, 改进了地表反照率, 使模拟结果更准确. 受季风影响, 北坡季风期感热通量最大值出现在季风前期, 潜热通量最大值出现在季风期. 南坡季风期潜热通量最大. 全年北坡以感热交换为主, 南坡以潜热交换为主. 土壤热通量的季节变化在南坡比北坡更明显.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47210,"journal":{"name":"Atmospheric and Oceanic Science Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S167428342400062X/pdfft?md5=55246a9b274532fc324f6ce1bb0a7c75&pid=1-s2.0-S167428342400062X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142161545","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
