摘　　要：利用NCEP/NCAR再分析月平均海平面气压资料,定义了一个东亚冬季风强度指数(IWI),并发现20世纪60年代到70年代初期东亚冬季风强度减弱,其后冬季风强度有所增强,80年代初期以后东亚冬季风强度又开始减弱。年代际时间尺度上,冬季陆地表面气温与IWI的相关性比海洋与IWI相关性好,冬季大陆东部的年代际增温与东亚冬季风的年代际减弱之间可能存在密切的联系。利用区域气候模式(RegCM3)进行敏感性数值模拟试验发现:减小冬季东亚大陆东北部的长波辐射降温率,将导致东西向海平面气压差的减小以及低层北风减弱,反映了东亚冬季风的减弱。近40年来,特别是20世纪80年代以后东亚冬季风的年代际减弱趋势很可能是东亚区域气候对温室效应的一种区域响应。In the recent more than 20 years, the surface air temperature （SAT） is obviously increasing over the globe. More and more scientists believe that it is caused by greenhouse effect. Many researches reveal that the warming trend is heterogeneous in space and time, and the most obvious warming appears in high latitude and winter. Under this heterogeneous warming background, the sea-land thermal contrast would be changed and then may lead to the variation of East Asian winter monsoon （EAWM）. Based on this hypothesis, the interdecadal varia- tion of EAWM is analyzed and the influence of the change of sea-land thermal contrast caused by greenhouse effect on the variation of EAWM is verified by a numerical experiment. In order to study the interdecadal variation of EAWM in the latest few decades, an annual index of EAWM intensity is defined, briefly IwI, by means of the NCEP/NCAR reanalysis monthly mean sea level pressure （SLP） data during 1961--2000. The variation of the interdecadal component （l 1-year running mean value） of Iwi is investigated. The result shows that EAWM has an obvious interdecadal variation in the period of 1961-- 2000. It weakens from 1960s to early 1970s and strengthens after that, then obviously weakens from early 1980s again. This interdecadal variation of EAWM is consistent with the wintertime warming trend in the north of East Asia. To investigate the possible causes of the interdecadal variation of EAWM, the correlation coefficients of the interdecadal components of IwI with the mean SAT over the east of East Asia and the west Pacific are calculated separately. The results show that on the interdecadal scale, the correlation of the IwI with the SAT over the land is more significant than that over the sea. It reveals that the interdecadal warming in the northeast of East Asia is closely related to the interdecadal weakening of EAWM. So, a possible mechanism of the interdecadal variation of EAWM is that the warming over the East Asia and the weakening of sea-land thermal con
