Based on the drought disaster data of the Heng-Shao drought corridor from 1961 to 2018, the meteorological drought composite index (MCI) was used to study the drought monitoring and evaluation methods of the Heng-Shao drought corridor. The results are as follows: (1) During the peak period of crop water demand (from June to October), the drought events with weighted mean of regional MCI (DI) less than or equal to -0.5 and the process duration greater than or equal to 16 days were included in the statistics, and the three elements such as the extreme intensity, cumulative intensity and duration of DI index were the best factors for annual regional drought assessment. Furthermore, based on the three elements of DI index, the annual assessment index of regional drought (MCIe) calculated by using the TOPSIS method was the best. (2) Based on the MCIe index, the combined grading method of average value and standard deviation was used to obtain the threshold of regional drought degree for normal, drought, severe drought, and extreme drought years. It was found that the MCIe index had a strong ability to assess extreme drought years and normal years in the Heng-Shao district, and had good assessment ability for 2019 and 2020. Furthermore, the extreme disaster year in 2013 was simulated, it was found that the MCIe index could better capture the change of drought in the Heng-Shao drought corridor. Therefore, the MCIe index could support the rapid assessment and early warning of drought in the Heng-Shao drought corridor to some extent.

There was a peculiarly strong heat-wave event in May 2018 in Zhejiang Province. The extreme maximum temperature (EMT) in most areas was higher than 36 ℃ and in a few regions it could reach 40 ℃. The EMT and high-temperature days (NHD) in many stations broke historical record. The accumulated station-high-temperature days and effective accumulated high temperature both ranked the first in observational record. Based on daily observations at 66 normal stations in Zhejiang Province, NCEP/NCAR reanalysis data, and circulation indices of western Pacific subtropical high (WPSH) provided by National Climate Center, a diagnostic analysis was conducted to illustrate the large-scale circulation cause for such extreme high-temperature event. The results indicate that an enhanced, northward and westward western-distributed WPSH, which accompanied by eastward-march of the south-Asia high, was the direct reason for such extreme heat-wave event. Under the control of WPSH, broad anticyclonic horizontal wind anomaly formed in the region of southeast China-northwest Pacific on 850 hPa, and downward flow prevailed over Zhejiang region. During 14-18 of May 2018, positive anomaly of short-wave radiation flux and the subsident air worked together to intensify the extremity of prominent heat-wave. The change of intensity and location of WPSH was intimately linked with tropical and middle-latitude circulation. More supervital convection in Marine Continent, tropical middle Pacific and north Indian Ocean, weakened convective activity in south China Sea, decreased typhoon in tropical western Pacific acted jointly to enhance WPSH, while in mid-latitude, northward-placed westerly jet on 200 hPa made for stable maintenance of WPSH.

The Characteristics of Aerosols over Lanzhou City and Their Influence on Respiratory Disease
YANG Min, DING Rui-Jiang, WANG Shi-Gong, CHANG Ge-Zheng
J4    2005, 23 (1): 54-57.  
Abstract1272)      PDF(pc) (269KB)(2377)       Save

According to the observational data of aerosols over Lanzhou city from June 2000 to May 2001, the concentration and size distribution of aerosols in the atmosphere including their yearly, monthly and daily variation were analyzed, and the influence of at-mosphere aerosols on human heath was discussed also. The results show that the variation tendencies of monthly mean density of PM10 and monthly mean number of persons infected with respiratory diseaseat the same period are basically coincident, they present nificant positive correlation. When aerosol concentration is on the high
increase in 1-2 r avs.the number of persons infected respiratory disease will increase in 1~2 days.
