青藏高原的大气热源及其影响以及环流的低频振荡已有很多探讨,但有关高原大气热源低频振荡及其对环流影响的研究目前尚未充分开展。利用倒算法计算得到的大气热源总量(Q1),诊断和分析1981—2000年夏季青藏高原东部逐日大气热源(Q1ETP,Q1 of the eastern Tibetan Plateau)的主要振荡周期及其对应的传播特征,并取其中1985、1992年进行更详细的分析。结果表明:(1)夏季高原东部大气热源存在两种低频振荡,主要为10～20 d振荡(BWO,Quasi-Biweekly Oscillation),其次为30～60 d振荡(LFO,Low Frequency Oscillation)。(2)在1985、1992年中,高原热源低频振荡与当地降水低频振荡有很好的同位相谱相关,表明热源低频振荡很可能由凝结潜热的振荡激发的,这证明了本文热源数据的可靠性。(3)高原在夏季主要是振荡源地,但也接受外来影响。高原热源BWO生成后主要在原地维持振荡,并受来自孟加拉湾的热源BWO影响,有时部分振荡向外(主要向东)传播;热源LFO情况与BWO类似,以本地振荡为主但也受来自东部大陆LFO的影响,外传时则主要向西。所以研究高原热源低频振荡需要特别注意热源BWO。
On the basis of NCEP/NCAR version I daily reanalysis data from 1971 to 2000 and by the methods of inverse calculation,correlation analysis and comparative analysis,the influences of atmospheric heat source(AHS) over the Tibetan Plateau on the large-scale AHS and the general circulation in summer are studied in this paper.The results show that AHS over the plateau in summer may trigger a heat source wavetrain propagating northeastward along the coast from the East Asian continent and West Pacific to Bering Strait-Arctic or even North America.In addition,if AHS over the eastern plateau is intense,South Asian High moves to southeast and West Pacific subtropical high moves to southwest;on the contrary,if AHS over the eastern plateau is weak,South Asian High moves to northwest and West Pacific subtropical high moves to northeast.Therefore,South Asian High and West Pacific sub-tropical high move in the horizontally-opposite directions in terms of interannual variation,for which AHS over the eastern plateau seems to be thermodynamically responsible.

There has been a lot of discussion about the atmospheric heat source over the Tibetan Plateau(TP)and the low-frequency oscillation of atmospheric circulation.However,the research on low-frequency oscillation of heat source over TP and its impact on atmospheric circulation are not fully carried out.By using the vertically integrated apparent heat source which is calculated by the derivation method,main oscillation periods and propagation features of the summer apparent heat source over the eastern TP(Q1ETP)are diagnosed and analyzed from 1981 to 2000.The results are as follows:(1)Summer Q1ETP has two significant oscillation periods:one is 10-20d(BWO,Quasi-Biweekly Oscillation)and the other is 30-60d(LFO,Low-frequency Oscillation).(2)A significant correlation is found between Q1ETP and rainfall over the eastern TP in 1985 and 1992,showing that the low-frequency oscillation of heat source is likely to be stimulated by oscillation of latent heat.(3)The oscillation of heat source on the plateau mainly generates locally but sometimes originates from elsewhere.The BWO of Q1ETP mainly exhibits stationary wave,sometimes moves out(mainly eastward),and has a close relationship with the BWO from the Bay of Bengal.Showing the same characteristics as BWO,the LFO mainly shows local oscillation,occasionally propagates(mainly westward),and connects with the LFO from East China.In summary,more attention should be paid to the study on BWO of Q1ETP.
