Diurnal Characteristics of Heavy Precipitation Events under Different Synoptic Circulation Patterns in the Middle and Lower Reaches of the Yangtze River in Summer

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2023
Aiming at the rainstorm days (≥50 mm/d) in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River during 2010–2020, the obliquely rotated principal component in T-mode (PCT) method is used to classify the daily mean 850 hPa geopotential height, including Type

Evaluating Simulated Microphysics of Stratiform and Convective Precipitation in a Squall Line Event Using Polarimetric Radar Observations

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
Recent upgrades to China’s radar network now allow for polarimetric measurements of convective systems in central China, providing an effective data set with which to evaluate the microphysics schemes employed in local squall line simulations.

Persistent Meteorological Drought in the Yangtze River Basin during Summer–Autumn 2022: Relay Effects of Different Atmospheric Internal Variabilities

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2023
During the summer–autumn (July–October, Jul–Oct) period of 2022, the Yangtze River Basin (YRB) of China experienced an extreme meteorological drought, with Jul–Oct containing the lowest precipitation in the YRB since 1979.

Impact of Thermally Forced Circulations on the Diurnal Cycle of Summer Precipitation Over the Southeastern Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
The summer precipitation over the southeastern Tibetan Plateau (SETP) exhibits significant diurnal variability, with a notable peak before midnight. This study investigates how thermally forced circulations regulate the diurnal precipitation over the ...

Microphysical Characteristics of a Squall Line Modulated by the Northeast China Cold Vortex Using Polarimetric Radar and Disdrometer Observations

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Heavy precipitation in Northeast China is frequently modulated by the Northeast China Cold Vortex (NCCV), although the microphysical processes within squall lines under such conditions remain insufficiently understood. This study presents a comprehensive

Rainfall Estimation by the WSR-88D for Heavy Rainfall Events

open access: yesWeather and Forecasting, 1998
Abstract Storms that produce extreme flooding present a special challenge for the WSR-88D rainfall algorithms. The authors assess the utility of weather radar in the investigation of extreme rain-producing storms through both climatological analyses of long-term radar datasets and case studies of storm events.
