摘 要:基于耦合器框架,中国科学院大气物理研究所大气科学和地球流体力学数值模拟国家重点实验室大气环流谱模式(SAMIL)最近成功地实现了与海洋、海冰等气候分量模式的耦合,形成了“非通量调整”的海陆气冰直接耦合的气候模式系统(FGOALS-s)。在耦合系统中,由于海温、海冰等的分布由预报模式驱动,大气与海洋、海冰之间引入了相互作用过程,这样大气环流的模拟特征与耦合前会有不同。为分析耦合系统的性能,作者对耦合前后的模拟结果进行了分析比较,重点是大气模拟特征的差异。结果表明,耦合前、后大气环流的基本特征相似,都能成功地模拟出主要的环流系统分布及季节变化,但是由于海温和海冰的模拟存在系统性的偏差,使得耦合后的大气环流受到明显影响。例如耦合后热带海温偏冷,南大洋、北太平洋和北大西洋等中纬度地区的海温偏高,导致海温等值线向高纬海域的伸展较弱,海温经向梯度减小。耦合后海冰在北极区域范围偏大,在南极周边地区则偏小。海温、海冰分布模拟的偏差影响到中、高纬低层大气的温度。热带海温偏低,使得赤道地区降水偏弱,凝结潜热减少,热带对流层中高层温度比耦合前要低,大气温度的经向梯度减小。经向温度梯度的改变,直接影响到对平均经圈环流及西风急流强度的模拟。尽管耦合系统中海温、海冰的模拟存在偏差,但在亚洲季风区,耦合后季风环流及降水等的分布都比耦合前单独大气模式的结果合理,表明通过海气相互作用可减少耦合前季风区的模拟误差,改善季风模拟效果。比较发现,海温、海冰模拟的偏差,除与海洋模式中经向热输送偏弱、海冰模式中海冰处理等有关外,也与大气模式中总云量模拟偏低有关。大气模式本身的误差,特别是云、辐射过程带来的误差,对耦合结果具有极为重要的影响。完全耦�The spectral atmosphere model (SAMIL) developed at the State Key Laboratory of Numerical Modeling for Atmospheric Sciences and Geophysical Fluid Dynamics, Institute of Atmospheric Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (LASG/IAP/CAS), has been coupled successfully with other climate components such as ocean and sea ice models recently through the coupler, upon which the Flexible non-flux-correction Global Ocean-Atmosphere-Landlce climate model system (FGOALS-s) has been built. Since the sea surface temperature (SST) and sea ice distribution are predicted by the models, and the interactions between the atmosphere with the ocean and sea ice are intro- duced in this coupled system, the simulated atmosphere circulation features may be different from those in the uncoupled system. To understand the performance of the coupled system, the simulated results, especially for the atmosphere circulation differences between the coupled and uncoupled systems, are compared in this paper. The resuits reveal that the mean atmospheric circulation features as well as the seasonal variations are very similar, which imply that the simulated SST and sea ice distributions are in agreement with the climatic ones. However there exist some biases in the SST and sea ice simulation, which influence the atmosphere circulations obviously. For example the tropical SST is colder after coupling, and SST in the middle latitudes in the Southern Ocean, the North Pacific Ocean and the North Atlantic Ocean are warmer, which cause the weaker SST extension to the high latitudes and weaker SST meridional gradient. The sea ice coverage around the north pole is wider while that around the South Pole is narrower after coupling. The biases of SST and sea ice influence the lower atmosphere temperature in the middle and high latitudes. Due to the colder SST in the tropics, the tropical precipitation along with the condensation heat in FGOALS-s is reduced significantly, which causes the colder atmosphere temperature in the middle and upper tropos
