Abstract EN
Based on the detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA) method, scaling behaviors of the daily outgoing longwave radiation (OLR) from 1979 to 2015 over the Tibetan Plateau (TP) and the Indian Monsoon Region (IMR) are analyzed.
The results show that there is long-term memory for the OLR time series over the TP and IMR.
The long-range memory behaviors of OLR over TP are stronger than those over IMR.
The averaged values of the scaling exponents over TP and IMR are 0.71 and 0.64; the maximum values in the two regions are 0.81 and 0.75; the minimum values are 0.59 and 0.58.
The maximum frequency counts for scaling exponents occur in the range of 0.625 and 0.675 both in TP and in IMR.
The spatial distribution of the scaling exponents of the OLR sequence is closely related to the conditions of climatic high cloud cover in the two areas.
The high cloud cover over TP is obviously less than that of IMR.
In addition, the scaling behaviors of OLR over TP and IMR are caused by the fractal characteristics of time series, which is further proved by randomly disrupting the time series to remove trends and correlation.
