ANALYSIS OF THE CLIMATIC CHARACTERISTICS OF LANDING TROPICAL CYCLONES IN EAST CHINA

The intensity, landing time, track trend and intensity variation of tropical cyclones (TCs) after landfall are analyzed using the TCs data (of best track from the China Meteorological Administration) between 1949 and 2006 for the western North Pacific and South China Sea. The trend differences of track and intensity between the TCs that directly land in East China and those making the second landfall in East China after landing in Taiwan Island are categorically discussed. The results show that the first kind of landing TCs are more likely to go northward or turn while the second kind of TCs have a larger tendency to keep going northwest. The intensity of the first kind of TCs is more persistent than the second one. There is a higher percentage for the intensity to be weakened significantly if the TCs keep going west to northwest or southwest after landing.     

基于CloudSat卫星的台风“彩云”(0914)云微物理结构模拟研究

使用NCEP (National Centerfor Environmental Prediction) FNL (Final Operational Global Analysis)资料作为初始场和边界条件,用WRF(Weather Research and Forecasting model)模式对西太平洋超强台风“彩云”(0914)进行数值模拟,结合CloudSat卫星数据产品评估Lin、WSM6、Thompson和WDM6四种云微物理参数化方案对热带气旋模拟的适用性。结果表明:不同参数化方案模拟的环流形式区别不大,但对于热带气旋中心的最低气压模拟有差别。WSM6与WDM6模拟的热带气旋云量最多,Lin方案最少。但不同参数化方案模拟的热带气旋云系位置比较一致。不管从模拟的云冰剖面图还是剖面平均的云冰含量看,Thompson方案对云冰的模拟效果都是最优。雷达反射率强回波区域与云冰含量的高值区相对应,但高值区的强度、中心高度均大于CloudSat观测。水成物分布特征表明,Lin方案模拟的冰晶粒子与雪粒子较其他方案分布高度更高且含量偏小,雪粒子大部分由冰晶粒子碰并过程形成; Thompson方案中冰晶粒子快速向雪粒子转换导致冰晶含量非常小; WSM6方案与WDM6方案模拟的水成物分布接近,但WSM6的垂直速度明显大于WDM6方案,由雪粒子、霰粒子融化形成的雨水含量更高。      

台风天气条件下地基微波辐射计反演产品精度分析

利用中国气象局上海台风研究所台风试验获取的4个典型台风个例数据,对地基微波辐射计反演的温度、水汽密度廓线与同址GP S探空资料得到的廓线进行对比分析,发现二者的温度、水汽密度相关系数分别为0.988、0.928.微波辐射计的探测精度在不同高度上有很大差异,整体来说,在高层温度探测精度较优于低层,而在低层水汽密度探测精度...
