利用多部S波段雷达组网识别中-γ尺度涡旋的方法及其应用

A multi-S-band radar network algorithm for meso-γ-scale vortex detection and its operational applications

  • 摘要: 基于2019年4月26—27日广东省多部S波段新一代天气雷达数据,采用中气旋探测算法,对多雷达相交区域内的同一个中-γ尺度涡旋识别结果进行对比分析,提出适用于我国新一代天气雷达网的中-γ尺度涡旋组网融合方法。研究结果表明:受雷达垂直分辨率限制、地形遮挡和径向速度距离模糊效应影响,不同雷达在共同探测区内涡旋识别数目和同个涡旋特征参数存在显著差异;当两部雷达与涡旋距离相当时特征参数一致性较高,而距离差大时较远雷达的由于分辨率下降识别的旋转速度、切变和直径变弱,底高升高,深度下降;基于距离权重和高度校正的组网融合方法可有效整合多雷达优势,克服距离差异和地形遮挡等对中-γ尺度涡旋探测的影响,获得更精确的垂直厚度,更大的旋转速度、切变和直径值,以及更大的识别范围。研究成果有助于提高中-γ尺度涡旋识别结果质量,减小各部雷达共同观测区域内的同一中-γ尺度涡旋间观测误差。

     

    Abstract: Using observation data from multiple S-band CINRAD radars in Guangdong Province from April 26—27, 2019, this study implemented a mesocyclone detection algorithm to compare and analyze identification results of the same meso-γ-scale vortices within the overlapping areas of multiple radars and proposed a fusion method for meso-γ-scale vortex detection by China’s new-generation weather radar network. The results show that: Vortex identification results are significantly affected by limited radar vertical resolution, terrain blockage, and radial velocity distance ambiguity, leading to variations in vortex counts and vortex characteristic parameters among different radars. When two radars have similar distances to a vortex, their identified parameters show good consistency. However, when the distance difference increases, the radar farther away tends to detect weaker rotational velocities, reduced shear, smaller diameters, higher base heights, and shallower depths due to radar resolution degradation. By incorporating distance weighting and height correction, the proposed fusion method effectively combines the advantages of multiple radars, overcoming limitations from distance differences and terrain blockage. This approach yields more accurate depth measurements, larger rotational velocities, shear and diameter, and an extended range for meso-γ-scale vortices. The research results contribute to improving the quality of identification results for medium-γ scale vortex and reducing observation errors between the same medium-γ scale vortex in the overlapping coverage area of different radars.
