The Pacific Walker circulation and the closely connected El Niño/Southern Oscillation influence the climate and weather of the tropical Indo-Pacific region. They specifically exert a strong control on the regional occurrence of weather extremes, such as heatwaves, heavy precipitation and prolonged dry spells, which are becoming increasingly frequent and severe. However, climate models struggle to accurately simulate large-scale circulation changes in the tropics and thus their consequences for regional weather and future climate. Here we use high-resolution ERA5 reanalysis data from 1940 to 2022 to study the occurrence trends of weather patterns in the tropical Indo-Pacific region. We find that new large-scale synoptic situations that were rarely present before the 1990s have emerged in the Indo-Pacific, while some others that were prominent have disappeared. Those new synoptic situations are associated with an unusual proportion of heatwaves and extreme precipitation in the region. These weather patterns are physically consistent with a trend towards a stronger Pacific Walker circulation, wetter and warmer conditions in Southeast Asia and drier conditions in the equatorial Pacific. These changes cannot be fully explained by El Niño/Southern Oscillation and other relevant modes of interannual variability, and other factors such as global warming, aerosol forcing, external forcing mechanisms and nonlinear mode interactions may be contributing. Emerging weather patterns over recent decades are exacerbating extreme precipitation and heatwaves in the tropical Indo-Pacific region, according to a computation of trends in reanalysis data.
太平洋沃克环流和密切相关的厄尔尼诺/南方涛动影响着热带印度洋-太平洋地区的气候和天气。它们对该地区极端天气的出现,如热浪、强降水和长期干旱等,具有很强的控制作用,而这些极端天气正变得越来越频繁和严重。然而,气候模式很难准确模拟热带地区的大尺度环流变化及其对区域天气和未来气候的影响。在此,我们利用 1940 年至 2022 年的高分辨率ERA5 再分析数据研究了热带印度洋-太平洋地区天气模式的发生趋势。我们发现,印度洋-太平洋地区出现了 20 世纪 90 年代以前很少出现的新的大尺度天气形势,而其他一些突出的天气形势则消失了。这些新的天气形势与该地区异常比例的热浪和极端降水有关。这些天气模式在物理上与太平洋漫步者环流增强的趋势、东南亚更湿润和更温暖的条件以及赤道太平洋更干燥的条件相一致。这些变化不能完全用厄尔尼诺/南方涛动和其他相关的年际变化模式来解释,全球变暖、气溶胶强迫、外部强迫机制和非线性模式相互作用等其他因素也可能起作用。

Fire weakens land carbon sinks before 1.5 °C 火灾削弱了 1.5 °C 前的陆地碳汇
IF 15.7 1区 地球科学 Q1 GEOSCIENCES, MULTIDISCIPLINARY Pub Date : 2024-10-03 DOI: 10.1038/s41561-024-01554-7

To avoid the worst impacts of climate change, the Paris Agreement committed countries to pursue efforts to limit global warming to 1.5 °C by urgently reducing greenhouse gas emissions. However, the Paris temperature ambitions and remaining carbon budgets mostly use models that lack feedback among fire, vegetation and carbon, which are essential for understanding the future resilience of ecosystems. Here we use a coupled fire–vegetation model to explore regional impacts and feedbacks across global warming levels. We address whether the 1.5 °C goal is consistent with avoiding significant ecosystem changes when considering shifts in fire regimes. We find that the global warming level at which fire began to impact global carbon storage significantly was 1.07 °C (0.8–1.34 °C) above pre-industrial levels and conclude that fire is already playing a major role in decreasing the effectiveness of land carbon sinks. We estimate that considering fire reduces the remaining carbon budget by 25 Gt CO2 (~5%) for limiting temperature rise to 1.5 °C and 64 GtCO2 (~5%) for 2.0 °C compared to previous estimates. Whereas limiting warming to 1.5 °C is still essential for avoiding the worst impacts of climate change, in many cases, we are already reaching the point of significant change in ecosystems rich in carbon and biodiversity. Only about 1.07 °C of climate warming above the pre-industrial level is required for fire to substantially diminish the effectiveness of global carbon sinks, suggesting that climate change has already been weakening carbon storage through fire, according to integrated model simulations that consider the interaction between fire and vegetation.
为避免气候变化带来的最坏影响,《巴黎协定》承诺各国通过紧急减少温室气体排放,努力将全球升温控制在 1.5 ℃以内。然而,《巴黎协定》的气温目标和剩余碳预算所使用的模型大多缺乏火灾、植被和碳之间的反馈,而这对于了解生态系统未来的恢复能力至关重要。在此,我们使用火灾-植被耦合模型来探讨全球变暖水平对区域的影响和反馈。我们探讨了 1.5 °C 的目标是否符合在考虑火灾机制变化时避免生态系统发生重大变化的要求。我们发现,火灾开始对全球碳储存产生重大影响的全球变暖水平是比工业化前水平高 1.07 ℃(0.8-1.34 ℃),并得出结论:火灾已经在降低陆地碳汇的有效性方面发挥了重要作用。我们估计,与之前的估计相比,如果将温度上升限制在 1.5 ℃,火灾会使剩余的碳预算减少 25 Gt CO2(~5%);如果将温度上升限制在 2.0 ℃,火灾会使剩余的碳预算减少 64 GtCO2(~5%)。尽管将升温限制在 1.5 °C对于避免气候变化的最坏影响仍然至关重要,但在许多情况下,我们已经到了富含碳和生物多样性的生态系统发生重大变化的地步。

Marine carbon sink dominated by biological pump after temperature overshoot 温度超调后以生物泵为主的海洋碳汇
IF 15.7 1区 地球科学 Q1 GEOSCIENCES, MULTIDISCIPLINARY Pub Date : 2024-09-30 DOI: 10.1038/s41561-024-01541-y

In the event of insufficient mitigation efforts, net-negative CO2 emissions may be required to return climate warming to acceptable limits as defined by the Paris Agreement. The ocean acts as an important carbon sink under increasing atmospheric CO2 levels when the physico-chemical uptake of carbon dominates. However, the processes that govern the marine carbon sink under net-negative CO2 emission regimes are unclear. Here we assessed changes in marine CO2 uptake and storage mechanisms under a range of idealized temperature-overshoot scenarios using an Earth system model of intermediate complexity over centennial timescales. We show that while the fate of CO2 from physico-chemical uptake is very sensitive to future atmospheric boundary conditions and CO2 is partly lost from the ocean at times of net-negative CO2 emissions, storage associated with the biological carbon pump continues to increase and may even dominate marine excess CO2 storage on multi-centennial timescales. Our findings imply that excess carbon that is attributable to the biological carbon pump needs to be considered carefully when quantifying and projecting changes in the marine carbon sink. The biological pump may dominate ocean carbon uptake under net-negative CO2 emissions, according to Earth system model simulations of temperature-overshoot scenarios.
如果减排努力不足,可能需要二氧化碳净负值排放,才能将气候变暖恢复到《巴黎协定》规定的可接受范围。在大气二氧化碳含量不断增加的情况下,当物理化学吸收碳占主导地位时,海洋是一个重要的碳汇。然而,二氧化碳净负值排放机制下的海洋碳汇过程尚不清楚。在这里,我们利用一个中等复杂程度的地球系统模型,以百年时间为尺度,评估了在一系列理想化的温度过高情景下海洋二氧化碳吸收和储存机制的变化。我们的研究表明,虽然物理化学吸收的二氧化碳的去向对未来大气边界条件非常敏感,而且在二氧化碳净负值排放时,二氧化碳会从海洋中部分流失,但与生物碳泵相关的储存却在继续增加,甚至可能在多百年时间尺度上主导海洋过量二氧化碳的储存。我们的研究结果表明,在量化和预测海洋碳汇的变化时,需要仔细考虑生物碳泵造成的过量碳。

Recent uplift of Chomolungma enhanced by river drainage piracy 乔木隆玛峰近期的隆起因河水盗排而加剧
IF 15.7 1区 地球科学 Q1 GEOSCIENCES, MULTIDISCIPLINARY Pub Date : 2024-09-30 DOI: 10.1038/s41561-024-01535-w

The Himalayas, which host glaciers, modulate the Indian Monsoon and create an arid Tibetan Plateau, play a vital role in distributing freshwater resources to the world’s most populous regions. The Himalayas formed under prolonged crustal thickening and erosion by glaciers and rivers. Chomolungma (8,849 m)—also known as Mount Everest or Sagarmāthā—is higher than surrounding peaks, and GPS measurements suggest a higher uplift rate in recent years than the long-term trend. Here we analyse the potential contribution of a river capture event in the Kosi River drainage basin on the renewed surface uplift of Chomolungma. We numerically reconstruct the capture process using a simple stream power model combined with nonlinear inverse methods constrained by modern river profiles. Our best-fit model suggests the capture event occurred approximately 89 thousand years ago and caused acceleration of downstream incision rates. Flexural models estimate this non-steady erosion triggers isostatic response and surface uplift over a broad geographical area. We suggest that part of Chomolungma’s anomalous elevation (~15–50 m) can be explained as the isostatic response to capture-triggered river incision, highlighting the complex interplay between geological dynamics and the formation of topographic features. The recent uptick in surface uplift of Chomolungma (Mount Everest) can be partly attributed to isostatic rebound due to increased erosion following a river capture event, according to river evolution and flexural modelling.
喜马拉雅山脉拥有冰川,调节印度季风,并形成了干旱的青藏高原,在为世界上人口最多的地区分配淡水资源方面发挥着至关重要的作用。喜马拉雅山脉是在地壳长期增厚以及冰川和河流的侵蚀作用下形成的。珠穆朗玛峰(海拔 8849 米)--又称珠穆朗玛峰或萨迦玛峰--高于周围的山峰,全球定位系统的测量结果表明,近年来的隆起速度高于长期趋势。在这里,我们分析了科西河流域的河流截流事件对珠穆朗玛峰地表重新隆起的潜在影响。我们利用一个简单的河流动力模型,结合以现代河流剖面为约束的非线性反演方法,对河流挟带过程进行了数值重建。我们的最佳拟合模型表明,捕获事件发生在距今约 8.9 万年前,并导致下游侵蚀速度加快。据挠曲模型估计,这种非稳定的侵蚀引发了等静力反应和地表隆起,波及范围很广。我们认为,珠穆朗玛峰的部分异常海拔(约15-50米)可以解释为捕获引发的河流侵蚀的等静压反应,这凸显了地质动态与地形特征形成之间复杂的相互作用。

River capture enhances the uplift of Chomolungma 河流捕获加强了珠穆朗玛峰的隆起

Modelling of the evolution of the Kosi drainage basin near Chomolungma suggests that a river capture event occurred approximately 89 ka ago. Isostatic rebound due to this capture event could contribute 10–50% of the total rock uplift rate in the Chomolungma region and might partly explain Chomolungma’s renewed uplift rate and anomalous elevation.

Tilted transverse isotropy in Earth’s inner core 地球内核的倾斜横向各向同性
IF 15.7 1区 地球科学 Q1 GEOSCIENCES, MULTIDISCIPLINARY Pub Date : 2024-09-27 DOI: 10.1038/s41561-024-01539-6

Seismic waves traversing the inner core in a direction parallel to Earth’s rotation axis arrive faster than waves travelling in the equatorial plane. These observations have been explained in terms of a transversely isotropic inner-core model with a fast symmetry axis parallel to the rotation axis. In recent years, more complex models of the inner core have been developed containing strong regional variations such as hemispheres, isotropic layers and an innermost inner core, most of which assume spatially variable transverse isotropy with a fixed symmetry axis. Here we instead explain the travel times of inner-core-sensitive seismic waves in terms of tilted transverse isotropy, in which the magnitude of transverse isotropy is fixed, but the orientation of the symmetry axis is allowed to vary spatially. This model, derived from seismic tomography, fits travel time data and spatially variable fixed-axis models, yet requires fewer parameters. It features a central inner core with a strong alignment of the fast symmetry axis in the direction of Earth’s spin axis and two shallow caps beneath the Mid-Atlantic and the Indian Ocean/Indonesia regions with symmetry axes tilted towards the equatorial plane. This model indicates the potential for varying crystal orientations within the inner core, which would constrain inner-core dynamics. A seismic tomographic model shows that the directional dependence of the travel time of seismic waves through Earth’s inner core can be explained by a spatially varying orientation of the transverse isotropy symmetry axis, which is simpler than other proposed structures.
以平行于地球自转轴的方向穿越内核的地震波比在赤道面上传播的地震波到达得更快。这些观测结果可以用横向各向同性的内核模型来解释,该模型的快速对称轴与自转轴平行。近年来,人们开发了更复杂的内核模型,其中包含强烈的区域变化,如半球、各向同性层和最内层内核,大多数模型都假定具有固定对称轴的空间可变横向各向同性。在这里,我们用倾斜横向各向同性来解释内核敏感地震波的传播时间,即横向各向同性的大小是固定的,但对称轴的方向允许在空间上变化。该模型源于地震层析成像技术,符合旅行时间数据和空间可变的固定轴模型,但所需参数较少。该模型的特点是:中央内核的快速对称轴与地球自转轴方向高度一致;大西洋中部和印度洋/印度尼西亚地区下方有两个浅盖,其对称轴向赤道平面倾斜。该模型表明,内核的晶体取向有可能发生变化,这将制约内核动力学。

Earth system models have been continously improved over the past decades, but systematic errors compared with observations and uncertainties in climate projections remain. This is due mainly to the imperfect representation of subgrid-scale or unknown processes. Here we propose a next-generation Earth system modelling approach with artificial intelligence that calls for accelerated models, machine-learning integration, systematic use of Earth observations and modernized infrastructures. The synergistic approach will allow faster and more accurate policy-relevant climate information delivery. We argue a multiscale approach is needed, making use of kilometre-scale climate models and improved coarser-resolution hybrid Earth system models that include essential Earth system processes and feedbacks yet are still fast enough to deliver large ensembles for better quantification of internal variability and extremes. Together, these can form a step change in the accuracy and utility of climate projections, meeting urgent mitigation and adaptation needs of society and ecosystems in a rapidly changing world. A multiscale Earth system modelling approach that integrates machine learning could pave the way for improved climate projections and support actionable climate science.
过去几十年来,地球系统模式不断改进,但与观测数据相比仍存在系统误差,气候预测也存在不确定性。这主要是由于对亚网格尺度或未知过程的表述不够完善。在此,我们提出了一种利用人工智能的下一代地球系统建模方法,它需要加速模型、机器学习集成、系统地利用地球观测数据和现代化基础设施。这种协同方法可以更快、更准确地提供与政策相关的气候信息。我们认为需要一种多尺度方法,利用公里尺度的气候模型和改进的更粗分辨率混合地球系统模型,这些模型包括基本的地球系统过程和反馈,但速度仍然足够快,可以提供大型集合,以更好地量化内部变异性和极端情况。这些措施结合在一起,可以在气候预测的准确性和实用性方面带来阶跃性变化,满足社会和生态系统在快速变化的世界中缓解和适应气候变化的迫切需求。

Pollution drives multidecadal decline in subarctic methanesulfonic acid 污染导致亚北极甲烷磺酸出现十年一遇的下降

An industrial-era decline in Greenland ice-core methanesulfonic acid is thought to herald a collapse in North Atlantic marine phytoplankton stocks related to a weakening of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation. By contrast, stable levels of total marine biogenic sulfur contradict this interpretation and point to changes in atmospheric oxidation as a potential cause of the methanesulfonic acid decline. However, the impact of oxidation on methanesulfonic acid production has not been quantified, nor has this hypothesis been rigorously tested. Here we present a multi-century methanesulfonic acid record from the Denali, Alaska, ice core, which shows a methanesulfonic acid decline similar in magnitude but delayed by 93 years relative to the Greenland record. Box-model results using updated dimethyl sulfide oxidation pathways indicate that oxidation by pollution-driven nitrate radicals has suppressed atmospheric methanesulfonic acid production, explaining most, if not all, of Denali’s and Greenland’s methanesulfonic acid declines without requiring a change in phytoplankton production. The delayed timing of the North Pacific methanesulfonic acid decline, relative to the North Atlantic, reflects the distinct history of industrialization in upwind regions and is consistent with the Denali and Greenland ice-core nitrate records. These results demonstrate that multidecadal trends in industrial-era Arctic ice-core methanesulfonic acid reflect rising anthropogenic pollution rather than declining marine primary production. Multidecadal declines in methanesulfonic acid in arctic ice cores reflect increasing anthropogenic pollution in the industrial era rather than declining marine primary production, according to analyses of a multi-century record of methanesulfonic acid from Alaska and atmospheric modelling.
工业时代格陵兰冰芯甲烷磺酸的下降被认为预示着与大西洋经向翻转环流减弱有关的北大西洋海洋浮游植物种群的崩溃。相比之下,海洋生物源硫总量的稳定水平与这一解释相矛盾,并指出大气氧化作用的变化是甲烷磺酸下降的潜在原因。然而,氧化作用对甲烷磺酸产量的影响尚未量化,这一假设也未得到严格验证。在这里,我们展示了来自阿拉斯加德纳利冰芯的多世纪甲烷磺酸记录,该记录显示甲烷磺酸的下降幅度与格陵兰记录相似,但相对于格陵兰记录延迟了 93 年。使用更新的二甲基硫醚氧化途径的盒式模型结果表明,污染驱动的硝酸自由基氧化抑制了大气中甲烷磺酸的生成,从而解释了德纳利和格陵兰岛甲烷磺酸下降的大部分原因(如果不是全部原因的话),而无需改变浮游植物的产量。与北大西洋相比,北太平洋甲烷磺酸下降的时间推迟,这反映了上风地区独特的工业化历史,并与德纳利和格陵兰冰芯的硝酸盐记录相一致。这些结果表明,工业时代北极冰芯甲烷磺酸的十年趋势反映了人为污染的加剧,而不是海洋初级生产的下降。
