一种初始方程中应用实测风进行风场初值化的方法

本文提出一种利用实测风场、高度场、温度场和地面三小时气压变化资料,考虑风场和质量场之间基本满足准地转平衡关系,大气具有准无辐散性,但又保留一部分与地面气压变化相应散度的地转偏差,将以实测的等压面风场插到σ坐标的风场进行订正的初值化方法,并用一个单时资料进行初步试验.文中还对风场初值化问题进行了讨论.     

Using tornado climatology to help plan a Doppler radar network

Using the tornado climatology and population statistics for Canada, a method of ranking population centres is proposed. Using as a basis a list of cities and census divisions ranked by population-weighted tornado incidence (a measure of risk), a first estimate is made of where to site 22 Doppler radars. It is estimated that this network will provide protection to about 82% of Canada's population.     

The role of wind direction in eolian transport on a narrow sandy beach

Comparison of eolian transport during five high-velocity wind events over a 29 day period on a narrow estuarine beach in Delaware Bay, New Jersey, USA, reveals the temporal variability of transport, due to changes in direction of wind approach. Mean wind speed measured 6 m above the dune crest for the five events ranged from 8·5 to 15·9 ms^?1. Mean wind direction was oblique to the shoreline (63° from shore-normal) during one event but was within 14° of shore-normal during the other events. Eolian transport is greatest during low tide and rising tide, when the beach source area is widest and when drying of surface sediments occurs. The quantity of sediment caught in a vertical trap for the five events varied from a total of 0·07 to 113·73 kgm^?1. Differences in temperature, relative humidity and moisture and salt content of surficial sediments were slight. Mean grain sizes ranged from 0·33 to 0·58 mm, causing slight differences in threshold shear velocity, but shear velocities exceeded the threshold required for transport during all events. Beach width, measured normal to the shoreline, varied from 15·5 to 18·0 m; beach slope differed by 0·5°. The oblique wind during one event created a source width nearly double the width during other days. Beach slope, measured in the direction of the wind, was less than half as steep as the slope measured normal to the shoreline. The amount of sand trapped during the oblique wind was over 20 times greater than any other event, even those with higher shear velocities. The ability of the beach surface to supply grains to the air stream is limited on narrow beaches, but increased source width, due to oblique wind approach, can partially overcome limitations of surface conditions on the beach.     

双线偏振雷达的降水估测Ⅰ. 排序配对逼近法

基于昆明市精细化GIS的天气雷达标准格式基数据应用

以国家地理信息公共服务平台、云南数字乡村、Mapinfo公共数据为数据源,在C#开发环境下实现了精细到乡镇、公路、行政村、自然村的昆明市精细化地理信息系统(GIS)的自主研发,解决了基层气象部门缺乏精细化GIS的难题。介绍了标准格式基数据的解析、成图过程及注意事项,在全国范围内较早实现了天气雷达标准格式基数据在基层气象部门的业务应用。在业务应用过程中,发现了CC天气雷达标准格式早期基数据存在回波强度严重减弱的问题;昆明市精细化GIS与昆明天气雷达回波图的融合应用,可以精确定位雷达强回波区,对精细化气象服务具有指导作用,提高了强天气精细化预警能力、短时临近精细化预报能力和防灾减灾能力。     

基于多源监测数据的雷电预警方法

以浙江省气象台已经业务运行多年的基于雷达数据的雷电预警产品(预警时效为60min,分辨率为1km×1km,4个预警等级)为基础,融合闪电定位系统数据和大气电场数据,提出一种基于多源监测数据的雷电预警方法。使用2018年的观测数据进行预警效果检验,结果表明:雷电预警的漏报率为31.89%,空报率为30.54%,临界成功指数为60.53%,比使用单一监测数据的雷电预警效果有所提高。由此可见,该雷电预警方法对浙江省雷电天气的预警具有参考价值和指示意义。     

2018年10月乌鲁木齐暴雪过程锋面分析

利用地面常规观测、NCEP/NCAR0.25°×0.25°再分析及风廓线雷达等资料，诊断分析了2018年10月17—18日乌鲁木齐极端暴雪天气过程的锋面特征。结果表明：在欧洲高压脊衰退，中亚长波槽分段东移的背景下，天山北坡强烈锋生并持续近30小时，此次锋生是热力和动力共同作用的，天山附近锋面呈带状准垂直分布，动力锋生激发的次级环流使垂直运动维持发展，为大暴雪提供动力条件； 400～600 hPa西南和地面～850 hpa西北路径输送的水汽，在600～800 hPa强烈辐合，为乌鲁木齐暴雪提供充沛水汽。风廓线雷达监测资料水平风向风速的垂直变化、Cn2能够反映锋生和水汽的演变特征，也从观测事实上证实了锋面对动力抬升及水汽辐合的重要作用。
