中文摘要:
      Aim to linking the variability of drought in northwest China to the oceanic influence of North Atlantic SSTs at the background of global warming and at the regional climate change shifting stages, year aridity index variations in northwest China and summer North Atlantic sea surface temperature (SST) variations are examined for the 44 a period of 1961-2004 using singular value decomposition (SVD) analysis.Results show that the SST anomalies (SSTA) in the North Atlantic in summer reflected three basic models.The first SVD mode of SST pattern shows a dipole-like variation with the positive center located at southwest and negative center at northeast of extratropical North Atlantic.And it strongly relates to the positive trend in AI variation in northwest China.The second coupled modes display the coherent positive anomalies in extratropical North Atlantic SST and the marked opposite trend of AI variability between north and south of Xinjiang.In addition, the lag correlation analysis of the first mode of SSTA and geopotential heights at 500 hPa variations also shows that the indication of the former influencing the latter configuration, which result in higher air temperature and less precipitation when the SSTA in the North Atlantic Ocean in summer motivated Eurasian circulation of EA pattern, further to influence the wet-dry variations in northwest China by the ocean-to-atmosphere forcing.
