摘 要:New observations from buoys and soundings reveal the discrepancies in air-sea interface and in vertical structures between spring(April to May) and summer(July) fogs in the Yellow *** fogs are shallow with a robust temperature inversion,dry layer and cold phase(surface air temperature or SAT is lower than sea surface temperature or SST);summer fogs are deep with weaker stability,indistinct fog top and warm phase(SATSST).Along with numerical simulations,conceptual models for the mechanisms of temperature inversion are *** land-sea contrast is responsible for the robust temperature inversion in spring,and the deep southerlies derived from the east Asian summer monsoon and the adiabatic sinking from the western Pacific subtropical high contributes to the weaker inversion in *** dry layer above the sea fog top intensifies the long-wave radiative cooling effect to lead to the cold phase in spring *** radiative cooling is weaker in summer fogs resulting in SATSST.
