一次强对流活动中雷电与降水廓线特征研究

A study of lightning and precipitation profiles of a severe convective activity

  • 摘要: 利用热带测雨卫星的测雨雷达(PR)和闪电成像传感器(LIS)的逐轨探测结果,通过资料匹配处理方法,并配合常规气象资料,分析了2006年6月29日黄淮地区一次强对流活动中不同类型雷暴单体(Area,LIS探测资料认为近似于雷暴单体)的降水廓线,并分析了降水廓线与雷暴闪电频数的关系。结果表明:该强对流系统的雷暴单体可分为对流降水、层云降水、对流与层云混合降水3种雷暴单体,其中,混合降水雷暴单体数量最多,对流降水雷暴单体数和层云降水雷暴单体数量较少;并且雷暴单体中的闪电大多发生在对流降水区。结果还表明,不同闪电频数的雷暴单体相应的降水廓线差别明显:雷暴中闪电频数越大,5 km以上高度廓线给出的雨强越大(对流降水廓线尤其如此),说明雷暴单体中闪电越多时,降水云冻结层以上存在的冰相粒子越多。

     

    Abstract: The data from precipitation radar (PR) and lightning imaging sensor (LIS) onboard the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission satellite, facilitated with data fusion methods and supplemented by conventional meteorological data, have been used to investigate the relationship between the precipitation profiles of thunderstorm cells (or areas, similar to thunderstorm cells as shown by the LIS data) and the features of lightning activities in a severe convective activity in the Huang huai Region on June 29, 2006. The results show that the thunderstorm cells in this severe convective system can be categorized into cells of convective precipitation, cells of stratiform precipitation and cells of the combination of convective precipitation with stratiform precipitation, with the largest amount of cells in the third category and relatively smaller amount in the first two categories. Most flashes of thunderstorm cells occur in the area of convective precipitation. The results also show that the precipitation profiles of thunderstorm differ obviously with the different flash rate. The greater the flash rate of thunderstorm is, the greater the precipitation rate of precipitation profiles above the attitude of 5 km is (especially of the convective precipitation profiles). This indicates that the greater the flash number in the thunderstorm is, the more ice phase particles above the freezing layer of precipitation cloud are.
