INFLUENCE OF SEA-AIR INTERACTION ON THE DISCHARGE OF FLOOD SEASON IN THE UPPER REACHES OF THE CHANGJIANG RIVER

On the method of correlation analysis the poper begins with searching the SST (Sea Surface Temperature) and circulation features of some regions with close correlation to the discharge of the flood season (from June to September) in the upper reaches of the Changjiang (Yangtze) River, then discusses the characteristics of sea-air interaction and the relations between the sea-air interaction and the discharge of the flood season, after that analyzes the possible mechanisms through which the main sea regions affect atmospheric circulation, and of the influence of the circulation changes on the discharge of the flood season.
