利用1982-2012年青藏高原中东部70个气象站的月平均地面感热资料、华南地区92个气象站的月平均降水资料、NCEP/NCAR月平均再分析资料和SEOF(season reliant EOF)方法选取了4个高原代表站,建立了青藏高原地面感热强度距平指数(ISH),并讨论了春季ISH与华南盛夏(7月和8月)降水的关系.结果表明:ISH可以较好地表征青藏高原中东部地面感热的年际变化特征,且具有更好的持续性.春季IsH与华南盛夏降水具有显著的负相关关系,当春季ISH偏大时,后期对流层中上层高度场异常偏高,且高度场异常偏高的响应随时间从低层向高层传递,使夏季副热带高压偏强、偏西,南亚高压异常偏强,华南地区盛夏降水偏少;反之亦然.此外,去除Ni(n)o3.4区海温对华南盛夏降水影响后,两者的负相关关系变得更为显著.%The intensity of surface sensible heat flux (SH) over the Tibetan Plateau is one of the most significant prior signals for precipitation anomalies in China.However,it's always a challenge to establish an index to describe the strength of SH due to the lack of corresponding observations and the complex topography.Based on the monthly surface sensible heat flux over the Tibetan Plateau which is calculated from observations including air temperature,land surface temperature,near surface wind speed and pressure in 70 meteorological stations provided by China Meteorological Administration(CMA) and normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) observed by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration(NOAA) remote sensing satellites and the season reliant EOF method (SEOF),4 representative stations are chosen,a new sensible heat index (ISH) is defined,and then the monthly ISH from 1982 to 2012 is calculated.By comparing with the average sensible heat in 70 stations which represents the regional averaged sensible heat condition in the mid-eastern Tibetan Plateau,surface heating strength index (B-H) and two indices of Xizang Plateau from National Climate Center,it's concluded that the inter-annual variabilities of ISH can represent the surface sensible heat in the middle and eastern region of the Tibetan Plateau,and this index has better relationship with two indices of Xizang Plateau than B-H,especially in winter,which mean ISH reflects geopotential height anomalies respond to surface heat better.Then the relationship between ISH in spring and the summer rainfall(total precipitation in June and July) in South China from 1982 to 2012 is discussed based on the monthly rainfall data in 92 meteorological stations provided by CMA and the month-ly NCEP/NCAR reanalysis data.Results show that ISH in spring bears significant negative correlations with summer rainfall in South China.The larger index in spring indicates higher geopotential height in mid-low latitudes and lower in high latitudes during next several months,and the positive anomalies in mid-low latitudes transfer from middle troposphere to upper and maintain in 200 hPa,which may lead to the westward extension of subtropical high in 500 hPa,the South Asian high in 200 hPa and westerly wind around 40°N enhancing,whereafter,it may result in the downdraft and southerly wind enhancing,but water vapor convergence subside in South China,moisture can be transported to northern region through South China.And finally,it will cause the reduction of precipitation in South China during the summertime.In addition,negative correlations will become even more significant after removing the influence of sea surface temperature (SST) in regions of Ni(n)o3.4,which indicates there may be more complex coupled influence derived from the Tibetan Plateau heating and SST anomalies in Ni(n)o regions.
