英文摘要 | Similarity between temperature and water vapour was investigated in the Fourier domain by using their coherency spectra, defined as the correlation coefficient between their Fourier modes, and the relative efficiency of their vertical transport. The class-averaged values of these indices were computed from the turbulence measurements over sparse grasslands on the Tibetan plateau during the intensive observations of GEWEX (Global Energy and Water Experiment) Asian Monsoon Experiment (GAME). It was found that the energy-containing eddies at scales up to 100z (z being height) are characterised by well-maintained similarity between these scalars. The scalars are highly correlated with each other, and their transport efficiencies are almost equal within this scale range. In contrast, similarity was not always maintained at scales larger than 1000z. Detailed analyses showed that this breakdown of similarity occurs occasionally or sporadically, suggesting that it is caused by events whose average return period is not much smaller than the current averaging time, i.e. 30 min. We speculate that entrainment of drier and warmer air at the top of the atmospheric boundary layer caused the scalar dissimilarity at this scale range. |
