    Abstract: On the basis of the datasets obtained for the monthly turbulent heat flux (1984–2009) from the Objectively Analyzed Air–Sea Heat Flux (OAFlux), the radiation flux from the International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project (ISCCP), the variability characteristics of the net heat flux (Qnet) over the Kuroshio System (KS) and its relationship with the climate in China were studied. The results reveal that except for a steady enhancement in the period 1984–2009, the boreal winter Qnet over the KS is characterized by obvious interannual variation of the period quasi‐5 year as well as decadal variability shifting from negative to positive anomalies in the mid‐1990s. In the wintertime, the increasing KS Qnet is primarily responsible for the intensification of the East Asia winter monsoon (EAWM) via a deepening of the Aleutian low and an enhancement of the Siberia high and has a correlation coefficient of 0.72 with a 1‐month delay. The enhanced‐EAWM induces colder winters in Northeast China and higher Qnet over the KS by carrying significantly greater amounts of cold air mass. During the low Qnet winter, the EAWM is weakened, and the southwesterly wind that contains abundant water vapour enhances and pushes toward southern China, thereby bringing heavier rainfall. The anomalous Qnet over the KS in the wintertime lasts until the following spring with a weaker relative intensity. In the spring after the low KS Qnet winter, the anomalous easterly wind transfers colder air masses from the Sea of Japan to the North China and Yellow–Huaihe regions and then cools these regions. The warmer and wetter southwesterlies along the northwestern flank of the anomalous anticyclone east of Taiwan Island meet these colder easterlies accompanied by an anomalous upward motion, thereby inducing an anomalous northwest–southeast precipitation band in the central and eastern region of China, especially in the Yangtze‐Huaihe region.

    Simulation of stable water isotopic composition in the atmosphere using an isotopic Atmospheric Water Balance Model

    Abstract: In this article, we present a simplified isotopic Atmospheric Water Balance Model ( iAWBM ), to simulate spatial distribution and temporal variations of δ 18 O in atmospheric vapour and in precipitation, and the correlations of δ 18 O in precipitation with precipitation amount and with temperature. This method overcomes deficiencies of the Global Network of Isotopes in Precipitation ( GNIP ) due to its limitation in space and time resolution and those of the isotope‐enabled General Circulation Models ( iGCM s) due to its complexity. The simulated results reproduce well the latitude effect, continent effect and seasonality of δ 18 O in global precipitation. The simulation suggests that the precipitation amount effect occurs mainly in the low‐mid latitude oceans and monsoon areas, and the simulated temperature effect occurs mainly in the mid‐high latitude continents. However, the simulation results also indicate some temperature effect in some low‐latitude areas where the precipitation amount effect is strong. The modelled precipitation isotopic composition is compared to 3‐year observations in Changsha, China (2010–2012). The simulations reproduce the observed seasonal variations of δ 18 O in precipitation. The basic characteristics that stable isotopes in precipitation are depleted during the rainy season and enriched during the dry season, and the observed amount effect is well simulated under daily time scale. The simulated weighted average δ 18 O (−6.58‰) in precipitation during the prevailing winter monsoon season (October–March) is almost the same as the observed δ 18 O in the same period (−6.56‰), but the simulated δ 18 O (−9.58‰) during the prevailing summer monsoon season (April–September) is lower than the observed δ 18 O (−7.66‰). The simulation result also shows temporal variations of vapour isotopic composition in the atmosphere, and the proportional contributions from horizontal vapour exchange, precipitation and evaporation.

    Constraints from strontium and neodymium isotopic ratios and trace elements on the sources of the sediments in Lake Huguang Maar

    Abstract: The sediments in Lake Huguang Maar in coastal South China were previously thought to originate mainly from wind-blown dust transported from North China, such that the lake sediments recorded the varying strength of the Asian winter monsoon. An alternative explanation was that the local pyroclastic rocks supplied the lake sediments, but the actual contributions from the different sources remained unclear. Geochemical analyses including 87 Sr/ 86 Sr and 143 Nd/ 144 Nd and trace elements support the local pyroclastic rock as the dominant source: 〈 22% of the total Sr in the lake sediments and ∼ 17% of the Nd arises from the distant source. Nb/Ta and Zr/Hf for the lake sediments are identical to those for the local rock but differ from the ratios for the wind-blown dust, and chondrite-normalized rare earth element patterns for the lake sediments are similar to those for the local rock and soil, but differ from those for the distant source. The sediments in Lake Huguang Maar are probably input into the lake through runoff and thus controlled by the hydrology of the lake. Wind-blown dust transported by the Asian winter monsoon from arid North China is only a minor contribution to the sediments.
