Based on daily CW records from October to March during 1980–2019 and <em>K</em>-means clustering, this study identified two types of regional CW (T1 and T2) in China. T1 regional CWs mainly struck Northeast China, whereas T2 regional CWs primarily affected the northern and eastern regions of China. Compared to T1, T2 regional CWs were more intense, lasted longer, and had a broader region of influence. During 1980–2019, there was a significant increase in the frequency of T1 regional CWs, while the frequency of T2 regional CWs showed no trend. Although amplification of the Siberian high was observed in both T1 and T2 regional CW events, there were differences in the wave train patterns in the middle troposphere between the two regional CWs. During T1 regional CW events, a wave train with negative–positive 500-hPa geopotential height anomalies over Siberia–Mongolia weakened the East Asian trough, causing an eastward movement of cold air from Siberia. The increasing trend of T1 regional CW frequency may be attributable to the linear trends of 500-hPa geopotential height caused by global warming. The wave train associated with T2 regional CW events formed ridge–trough–ridge circulation anomalies over the Ural Mountains, Mongolia, and North China. This led to a southeastward intrusion of the cold air. The conclusions of this paper indicate that the Siberian high amplification and mid-tropospheric wave train pattern should be jointly considered in forecasting regional CW events in China.</p><p>摘要</p><p>寒潮事件对东亚地区的社会经济, 生态系统和人体健康影响巨大. 根据1980−2019 年间10月至次年3月的每日寒潮记录和<em>K</em>-means聚类, 本文识别出了中国两种不同类型的区域性寒潮(T1 和 T2). T1区域性寒潮主要影响东北地区, T2区域性寒潮则主要影响华北和东部地区. 与T1区域性寒潮相比, T2区域性寒潮强度更强, 持续时间更长, 影响范围更广. 1980–2019年期间, T1区域性寒潮的频率显著增加, 而T2区域性寒潮的频率则没有趋势变化.

However, the response of the flow of DIN to dynamic water temperature in large rivers is not well known at the global scale. In this study, based on a recently developed land surface model coupled with riverine water temperature and DIN transport schemes, two numerical simulations, with and without dynamic water temperature, were implemented to investigate the seasonal constraint of dynamic water temperature on the change in riverine DIN flow. Results show that the water temperature could be a key controlling factor for the spatial distribution of global DIN flows. After integrating dynamic water temperature estimation into land surface modeling, the annual amplitudes of DIN flow were 5%–25% smaller than before between 30°N and 30°S, while approximately 10% larger in other latitudinal zones. Less denitrification was out of the scope of 40°N–20°S in summer. In eastern China, the dynamic water temperature made the DIN flow reduce by 1%–3% in summer, while it made it increase by 1%–5% in winter. A seasonal constraint of dynamic water temperature, making the amplitude of monthly fluctuation reduce by about 60%, was found in global large rivers.

Tremendous fire emissions posed significant impacts on the air quality in both local and downwind regions. Here, the authors explored the meteorological factors driving this wildfire episode and the associated large-scale circulation. Relative to the mean value of 2001–2022, the 2023 Canadian fires released 0.37 Gt more CO₂ (527.1%) during May–August. Such enhancement was strongly associated with the anomalous surface warming, especially in May–June, when the daily maximum temperature on average increased by 8.11°C, with regional hotspots up to 10°C in central and eastern Canada. Consistent with the surface warming, positive anomalies of geopotential height were observed at high levels in central and western Canada. The dispersion of Rossby waves led to the long-lasting dominance of high-pressure systems and the consequent warming through anomalous subsidence. The phase-locked wave pattern induced by favorable topography and the strong warming tendency in the pan-Arctic regions are expected to jointly escalate the probability of extreme wildfires over central and western Canada in the future.</p><p>摘要</p><p>2023年5月加拿大发生极端野火事件并持续4个月时间. 野火污染物排放对当地和下风向的空气质量造成了严重影响. 本文对驱动此次野火事件的气象因子和相关大尺度环流进行了探究. 研究表明, 此次极端野火排放的二氧化碳相较往年同期增长了0.37Gt (527.1%) . 受罗斯贝波频散影响, 同期加拿大中西部区域出现持续的位势高度正异常, 促进气流下沉并引发局地高温, 中西部区域5–6月最高温平均上升8.11°C, 部分区域甚至超过10°C, 导致野火排放的显著增长. 受有利地形和泛北极地区快速增暖的影响, 预期未来加拿大中西部发生极端野火的概率可能会显著上升.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47210,"journal":{"name":"Atmospheric and Oceanic Science Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S167428342400031X/pdfft?md5=35ca9f541382e11fcc04e824b69d7fd6&pid=1-s2.0-S167428342400031X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140092503","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}

Our evaluations from observations showed that the daily maximum TW values over China have been scarcely reported above 35 °C, but humid-heat extreme days of TW above 30 °C have been reported each year during the past four decades, being mainly centered over the highly populated regions, including East China, South China, and the Sichuan basin.
