| 英文摘要 | Irrigated agriculture has the potential to alter regional to global climate significantly. We investigate how irrigation will affect regional climate in the future in an inland irrigation area of northern China, focusing on its effects on heat fluxes and near-surface temperature. Using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model, we compare simulations among three land cover scenarios: the control scenario (CON), the irrigation scenario (IRR), and the irrigated cropland expansion scenario (ICE). Our results show that the surface energy budgets and temperature are sensitive to changes in the extent and spatial pattern of irrigated land. Conversion to irrigated agriculture at the contemporary scale leads to an increase in annual mean latent heat fluxes of 12.10 W m(-2), a decrease in annual mean sensible heat fluxes of 8.85 W m(-2), and a decrease in annual mean temperature of 1.3 degrees C across the study region. Further expansion of irrigated land increases annual mean latent heat fluxes by 18.08 W m(-2), decreases annual mean sensible heat fluxes by 12.31 W m(-2), and decreases annual mean temperature by 1.7 degrees C. Our simulated effects of irrigation show that changes in land use management such as irrigation can be an important component of climate change and need to be considered together with greenhouse forcing in climate change assessments. |
