Abstract:
An atmospheric general circulation model (AGCM) and an oceanic general circulation model (OGCM) are asynchronously coupled to simulate the climate of the mid-Holocene period.The role of the solarradiation and ocean in the mid-Holocene East Asian monsoon climate is analyzed and some mechanisms are revealed.At the forcing of changed solar radiation induced by the changed orbital parameters and the changed SST simulated by the OGCM,compared with when there is orbital forcing alone,there is more precipitation and the monsoon is stronger in the summer of East Asia,and the winter temperature increases over China.These agree better with the reconstructed data.It is revealed that the change of solar radiation can displace northward the ITCZ and the East Asia subtropical jet,which bring more precipitation over the south of Tibet and North and Northeast China.By analyzing the summer meridional latent heat transport,it is found that the influence of solar radiation change is mainly to increase the convergence of atmosphere toward the land,and the influence of SST change is mainly to transport more moisture to the sea surface atmosphere.Their synergistic effect on East Asian precipitation is much stronger than the sum of their respective effects.
