项目摘要

The meso- and micro-scale meteorology of the stable boundary layer (SBL) over mountainous terrain is one of the most challenging subjects in the applied and basic geosciences. The rapid progress in the observation and simulation (Direct Numerical Simulation, DNS; Large Eddy Simulation, LES; mesoscale modeling, MM) of the SBL in complex terrain during recent years has led to synergistic activities, which have helped close cultural gaps between meteorology and geophysics, between basic and applied research, and between the academic and operational communities. This collaborative research project will be another effort in this spirit. In contrast to other recent SBL field studies that have tried to deal with observations and simulations of very complex topography, the Principal Investigators will emphasize understanding the meso- and micro-scale structure and evolution of the SBL within, above, and in the vicinity of an ideal simple-shaped, small, closed basin cut into a nearly homogeneous plane. This research effort has been termed the Meteor Crater Experiment (METCRAX) and the site of the month-long field phase is the 1.2-km wide, 175-m deep, circularly symmetrical Meteor Crater near Winslow, Arizona. The simple terrain setting eliminates complicating factors such as advection from outside the crater and slope asymmetry, allowing the cold pool structure and evolution to be studied in a controlled manner that typically is only achieved in laboratory settings. The field observations are designed to capture (a) the mean and turbulence characteristics of the down-slope and up-slope flows into and out of the crater, (b) the diurnal cycle of buildup and breakup of the cold-air pool, (c) seiches and other waves in the cold pool, and (d) the mesoscale variability of the ambient wind, which is expected to trigger seiches and waves in the basin. The observations will span length scales from centimeters to tens of kilometers and time scales from tens of milliseconds to days. The observed data will be supplemented with state-of-the-art DNS/LES and MM simulations. This research will synthesize and advance knowledge in a variety of disciplines, including boundary-layer meteorology, mountain meteorology, the physics of atmospheric waves and instabilities, in situ and remote sensing of the lower troposphere, DNS, LES, and MM modeling, and statistical fluid mechanics. The four Principal Investigators and their co-investigators represent a well-balanced mix of observationalists and theoreticians, instrumentalists and modelers, applied and basic researchers, and meteorologists and geophysicists. This research is the first in-depth observational and computational study of seiches in a cold-air pool and is expected to lead to an enhanced understanding of the formation and breakup of cold pools that will be beneficial for a wide range of applied and theoretical problems. Between the 1990 and 2000 national censuses, the five fastest growing states were Nevada, Arizona, Colorado, Utah, and Idaho. Socioeconomic impacts of cold air pools in this region continue to grow, as well as vulnerability to climate variability. Potential benefits of this activity for society at large include improved understanding and prediction of cold pool events and the associated hazardous weather conditions and air pollution problems over the western United States. Improvements in understanding of the meteorology of these SBLs may lead to improvements in the forecasting of the onset and cessation of the cold-air pools that will have significant societal benefits and will improve the knowledge of western U.S. climate.
山区稳定边界层的中、微尺度气象学研究是应用和基础地球科学中最具挑战性的课题之一。 近年来,复杂地形中SBL的观测和模拟(直接数值模拟,DNS;大涡模拟,LES;中尺度建模,MM)的快速进展引发了协同活动,有助于缩小气象学和地球物理学之间、基础研究和应用研究之间以及学术界和业务界之间的文化差距。 这项合作研究项目将是本着这种精神的另一项努力。 与最近其他试图处理非常复杂地形的观测和模拟的SBL实地研究相反,主要研究人员将强调理解SBL的中尺度和微观尺度结构和演变,在理想的简单形状,小,封闭的盆地切割成一个几乎均匀的平面。 这项研究工作被称为流星陨石坑实验(METCRAX),为期一个月的现场阶段的网站是1.2公里宽,175米深,圆形对称的流星陨石坑附近温斯洛,亚利桑那州。 简单的地形设置消除了复杂的因素,如来自陨石坑外的平流和斜坡不对称,使冷池结构和演变能够以受控的方式进行研究,通常只有在实验室环境中才能实现。 实地观测的目的是捕捉(a)流入和流出火山口的下坡和上坡气流的平均和湍流特征,(B)冷空气池形成和破裂的日周期,(c)冷池中的假潮和其他波浪,以及(d)预计会在盆地中引发假潮和波浪的环境风的中尺度变化。 观测将跨越从厘米到几十公里的长度尺度和从几十毫秒到几天的时间尺度。 观察到的数据将补充最先进的DNS/LES和MM模拟。 这项研究将综合和推进各种学科的知识,包括边界层气象学,山区气象学,大气波和不稳定性的物理学,低对流层的原位和遥感,DNS,LES和MM建模,以及统计流体力学。 四位首席研究员和他们的合作研究员代表了观测者和理论家,仪器和建模者,应用和基础研究人员以及气象学家和气象学家的平衡组合。 这项研究是第一次深入的观测和计算研究的假潮在冷空气池,预计将导致一个更好的理解冷池的形成和解体,这将有利于广泛的应用和理论问题。 在1990年至2000年的全国人口普查中,人口增长最快的五个州是内华达州、亚利桑那州、科罗拉多、犹他州和爱达荷州。 该区域冷空气汇集的社会经济影响继续增长,以及对气候变化的脆弱性。 这项活动对整个社会的潜在好处包括提高对冷池事件以及美国西部相关的危险天气条件和空气污染问题的理解和预测。 对这些SBL气象学的理解的改善可能会导致对冷空气池的开始和停止的预测的改善,这将具有显着的社会效益,并将提高对美国西部气候的认识。
