Because the biases between ERA5 and Sounding of the Atmosphere using Broadband Emission Radiometry(SABER) temperature data are within ±5 K below the lower mesosphere,ERA5 reanalysis is used to construct IC in the lower atmosphere. Four experiments are performed to simulate a Stratospheric Sudden Warming(SSW) event from 5 to 15 February 2016. The simulation using the WACCM default climatic IC cannot represent the sharp meteorological variation during SSW. In contrast, the 0~4 d forecast results driven by ERA5-constructed IC is consistent with ERA5 reanalysis below the middle mesosphere. Comparing with WACCM climatology ICs scheme, the ICs constructing method based on ERA5 reanalysis can obtain 67%, 40%, 22%, 4% and 6% reduction of temperature forecast RMSE at 10 hPa, 1 hPa, 0.1 hPa, 0.01 hPa and 0.001 hPa respectively. However,such improvement is not shown in the lower thermosphere.展开更多
本文采用1979~2012年的中国沿海台站观测数据对ERA-Interim(简称"ERA-I")的气温、气压和海温数据进行质量评估。结果表明:(1)从常年平均来看,ERA-I气温、气压和海温多年月平均变化与观测数据吻合较好,可以反映气候态的季节变化...本文采用1979~2012年的中国沿海台站观测数据对ERA-Interim(简称"ERA-I")的气温、气压和海温数据进行质量评估。结果表明:(1)从常年平均来看,ERA-I气温、气压和海温多年月平均变化与观测数据吻合较好,可以反映气候态的季节变化特征。与台站观测数据相比,ERA-I气温平均偏高0.19℃,气压平均偏低0.17 h Pa,海温平均偏高0.70℃。(2)从年际变化情况来看,ERA-I和台站观测的气温、气压和海温变化趋势一致,气温和海温呈上升趋势,气压呈下降趋势。但在海南岛附近使用ERA-I气温做年际变化分析和在东海台湾海峡至北部湾沿岸使用ERA-I海温做年际变化趋势分析时要谨慎。(3)从月均变化分析来看,ERA-I月均气温、气压和海温数据与台站实测数据具有很好的一致性。从误差空间分布来看,ERA-I气温在黄海沿岸平均误差最小,ERA-I气压在渤海沿岸平均误差最小,ERA-I海温在南海沿岸平均误差最小。需要特别指出的是,ERA-I月均海温在渤海和台湾海峡附近沿岸平均误差较大(部分站均方根误差超过2.5℃),在上述区域使用ERA-I海温数据时应考虑其产品偏差。展开更多
