基于地基微波辐射计资料对成都双流机场两次雷雨过程的分析

利用地基微波辐射计资料,比较了2017年7月成都双流机场的两次雷雨过程,根据天气形势分为"两高切变"和"东高西低"2类,在此基础上分析微波辐射计要素变化特征,结果表明:在垂直方向0～10 km,以相对湿度达到80%来区分干区和湿区,则两次过程前3 h,相对湿度在垂直方向均呈现"上下干、中间湿"三层结构,并早于近地层前2 h达到饱和状态;过程期间相对湿度呈现"上干、下湿"两层结构;过程结束后湿层抬高,低层变干。两次过程水汽含量充沛,保持在70 kg/m~2以上,峰值超过85 kg/m~2。每一次中阵雨发生后水汽含量都会短暂回落,但仍高于过程前的数值,不足2 h后再次发生中阵雨。由0℃线高度变化可知,降水过程中,暖区(温度≥0℃)内相对湿度≥90%;云中液态水含量主要分布于6 km以下,温度在0℃以上的液态水占比很高,故两次过程以暖云降水为主。雷雨前1 h左右有"低层气温上升,0℃层抬升,K指数、CAPE指数也明显增大"的典型特征。降水发生在相对湿度、水汽总含量、云中液态水含量和稳定度指数快速增长的波峰中。     

Spectral index determination between 408 MHz and 5 GHz in the northern sky

We present the joint analysis of two 5-GHz interferometric surveys of the northern sky, taken with different baselines. The two surveys were carried out on the Jodrell Bank 5-GHz interferometer based at Manchester. The Maximum Entropy Method is used to check the consistency of the two surveys and the final two-dimensional maps are used, together with low-frequency full sky surveys, to put constraints on the Galactic spectral index. It is found that synchrotron emission is the dominant process at high Galactic latitudes below 5 GHz.     

Space-time soil wetness variations monitoring by a multi-temporal microwave satellite records analysis

In the last few years, remote sensing observations have become a useful tool for providing hydrological information, including the quantification of the main physical characteristics of the catchment, such as topography and land use, and of its variables, like soil moisture or snow cover. Moreover, satellite data have also been largely used in the framework of hydro-meteorological risk mitigation.Recently, an innovative Soil Wetness Variation Index (SWVI) has been proposed, using data acquired by the microwave radiometer AMSU (Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit) which flies aboard NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) satellites.SWVI is based on a general approach for multi-temporal satellite data analysis (RAT - Robust AVHRR Techniques). This approach exploits the analysis of long-term multi-temporal satellite records in order to obtain a former characterization of the measured signal, in term of expected value and natural variability, providing a further identification of signal anomalies by an automatic, unsupervised change-detection step. Such an approach has already demonstrated, in several studies carried out on extreme flooding events which occurred in Europe in the past few years, its capability in reducing spurious effects generated by natural/observational noise. In this paper, the proposed approach is applied to the analysis of the flooding event which occurred in Europe (primarily in NW Spain) in June 2000. Results obtained, in terms of reliability as well as efficiency in space-time monitoring of soil wetness variation, are presented. Future prospects, in terms of exportability of the methodology on the new dedicated satellite missions, like ESA-SMOS and NASA-HYDROS, are also discussed.

微波辅助化学反应制备纳米高岭石

为提高高岭石比表面积、孔隙率和吸附容量，利用微波辅助化学反应制备了尿素-高岭石复合物，进一步微波辐射使层状高岭石完全剥离并粉碎，经分散后得到了纳米高岭石。利用傅立叶红外光谱仪（FT-IR）、X射线粉晶衍射仪（XRD）、扫描电镜（SEM）和透射电镜（硎）进行了过程中样品结构、形貌和尺寸方面的表征。结果表明：同等条件下，通过微波辅助剥离并粉碎层状高岭石，时间只需30min，约为单一球磨的1／20，分散后的纳米高岭石平均粒径约为150nm。     

多频率多极化地表辐射参数化模型

发展了针对对地观测系统被动微波辐射计AMSR-E应用的裸露地表辐射模型。首先，利用1993年法国INRA地面试验数据对AIEM在宽波段高频率和大角度的辐射信号模拟能力进行评价。验证结果表明，AIEM模型模拟值与地面实测数据吻合很好，说明AIEM模型能很好模拟宽波段和大角度的辐射信号。在此基础上，用AIEM模型建立了一个针对AMSR-E传感器参数配置．包含各种地表粗糙度和介电特性的裸露地表辐射模拟数据库。利用AIEM模拟数据和地面实测数据对目前人们使用的半经验地表模型进行了比较和分析，发展了多频率多极化的地表辐射参数化模型——Qp模型。该模型中，地表粗糙度对辐射信号的影响通过粗糙度参数Qp来表示。参数Qp可简单表示为均方根高度与相关长度的比值（s／l）。从Qp模型与AIEM模型模拟的发射率比较结果来看，它们之间的绝对误差很小，不超过10^-3因而，本文发展的参数化模型可用作模拟地表辐射的前向模型，如用于估算AMSR-E传感器的亮温值，同时模型的发展有利于提高人们对辐射机制的理解和认识。

A network communication and recording system for digital seismic observation

Introduction Digital seismic observation systems originated from 1970′s. It has developed greatly in the past 30 years up to now. Its performances were improved, dynamic range and resolution increased a lot, the power consumption decreased a lot, and so on (YOU et al, 2003a, b). In a word, the dream of broad frequency-band, big dynamic range, digitalization of seismic observation has come true already. But, the previous digital seismic observation systems only support communica-tion based o…     

地基微波辐射计探测在黄河上游人工增雨中的应用

利用2003、2004年夏秋季在青海省河南县的地基双频段微波辐射计连续观测资料,在实施系统探测实验以进行辐射亮温值(TB(23.87),TB(31.65))与大气汽态总水汽含量(Q)和云中积分液态水含量(L)值反演处理的基础上,分析了黄河上游河曲地区的云水特征,并进行了降水预测及人工增雨作业指标的探讨。结果表明:在黄河上游河曲地区,7—9月纯晴天无云天气条件下,L值基本为0,表明了统计回归反演的显著性。多云条件下Q值和L值分别在3.76~4.75g·cm-2、227.34~859.42g·m-2的范围内。可降水云天气,Q值在5.23~8.65g·cm-2间,L值在421.18~1016.37g·m-2的范围内;积雨云个例分析表明,在降雨开始前近5小时的降雨酝酿期内,Q及L的增加有明显的波动,但在对流云出现并发展时,Q和L总是急剧上升,在降雨前达到一峰值;由河南站和西安站的Q、L值比较差异可以看出,Q、L值受水汽输送、地形等因素的影响,黄河上游河曲地区的人工增雨潜力有显著的优势;所计算出的降水预测阈值,可作为该地区人工增雨作业指标的参考。
