青藏高原地区一次深对流活动对平流层—对流层物质交换影响的模拟研究

Simulation Study on the Impact of Deep Convection on Stratosphere–Troposphere Exchange over the Qinghai–Xizang Plateau

  • 摘要: 利用WRF-Chem模式分析了2010年8月12日发生在青藏高原东南部的一次深对流过程中的平流层—对流层物质交换(STE)过程及其影响机制。结果表明,此次深对流系统具备穿透性对流特征,强上升气流能够直接将近地面含高浓度CO和低浓度O3的空气输送至低平流层,使低平流层CO浓度升高、O3浓度降低。同时,深对流活动激发了较强的湍流混合过程,在深对流活动结束后的3~4小时内,湍流混合作用导致上对流层下平流层(UTLS)区域持续发生STE过程,将对流层的冰晶、CO和O3输送至低平流层,但受凝结脱水作用影响,湍流过程向低平流层传输的水汽减少。

     

    Abstract: In this study, the characteristics and mechanisms of the stratosphere–troposphere exchange (STE) in deep convection over the southeastern part of the Qinghai–Xizang Plateau on August 12, 2010, were analyzed using the WRF-Chem model. It was revealed that the convection has the characteristics of penetrating convection, and the strong updraft in the convection can directly transport the air with high CO concentration and low O3 concentration near the ground into the lower stratosphere. Thus, in the lower stratosphere, the concentrations of CO and O3 increased and decreased, respectively. The deep convection also induced a strong turbulent mixing process, causing the continuous STE in the upper troposphere–lower stratosphere region within 3–4 h after the end of deep convection, transporting ice crystals, CO, and O3 from the troposphere to the lower stratosphere. The water vapor that entered the lower stratosphere via the turbulent mixing process was reduced due to condensation and dehydration.
