Zusammenfassung |
Indian Ocean dipole zonal mode (IODM) could affect the tropical Pacific Ocean and
Atmospheric General Circulation through atmospheric remote teleconnection or ocean
internal dynamic process. A number of research work have been done to study the former. In
this study, we mainly discuss whether anomalous signal in the Indian Ocean could affect
Pacific circulation through the ocean internal dynamic process or not. The numerical
experiments are designed using the IAP/LASG Ocean General Circulation Model (OGCM)
and the regional coupling version of a coupled GCM FGOALS_g1.1, in which the
atmosphere and the ocean are coupled only in the tropical Pacific ocean (120E-280E,
15S-15N). In the OGCM, the ERA40 wind stress anomaly and surface heat fluxes anomaly
from 1958-2000 are specified over the Indian Ocean whereas the surface forcing
over the other regions is the climatological fields. We use the regionally coupled
model to do the similar experiment, but in the tropical Pacific Ocean (120E-280E,
15S-15N) the ocean is coupled with the atmosphere. The results of these experiments
show that the OGCM forced by the assimilated wind stress and heat flux of the
European Center for Medium-range Weather Forecast could simulate the IOD event
from 1958-2000. The upper ocean temperature anomalies and sea level anomalies
related to the IOD events in the Indian Ocean propagate into the equatorial Pacific
Ocean through the Indonesian Seas, and then produce significant SST and sea level
anomalies in the eastern equatorial Pacific Ocean. Similarly, the regional coupled
model could also simulate the propagation of the Indian Ocean abnormal signal
into the Tropical Pacific Ocean through the wave process. But the response of the
tropical Pacific Ocean to the IOD event has half year time-lag compared with the
OGCM experiment, the anomalous signal of the tropical Pacific Ocean appears in
second model year. The reason may be that the air-sea interaction processes and the
mechanism are more complex when air-sea coupling is introduced in the coupled GCM. |
