The main characteristics of the general atmospheric circulation in spring 2022 (from March to May) are as follows. The polar vortex is characterized by a monopole pattern in the Northern Hemisphere with a long and narrow shape, and the intensity of the polar vortex is close to climatological normal. The westerlies in the middle and high latitudes are in a 4-wave pattern. In March, most of China's northern part and northern seas are under the control of northwest airflow; in April, the East Asia major trough is deepened and the ridge area is stronger than that in the same period in history; in May, the circulation in the middle and high latitudes changes into “two troughs and two ridges” type. There are totally 12 gale processes above 8-grade over offshore areas of China in spring, including 4 produced by cold air, three jointly induced by cold air and extratropical cyclones, 4 generated by extratropical cyclones, and one jointly induced by cold air and tropical cyclones. Ten obvious sea fog processes occur over offshore areas, including 4 in March, three in April, and three in May. There are totally two tropical cyclones generated over western North Pacific and the South China Sea, which is close to the normal average of the same period; in addition, 12 tropical cyclones are generated over the world's other seas, which is 5.7 less than that in normal years. There are 12 rough sea wave processes above 2.0 m with a total number of 44 days. In spring, the sea surface temperature over offshore areas of China shows an upward tendency, while the temperature rising rate in the northern seas is larger than that in the southern seas.
