Abstract A case study of a convection initiation (CI) event involving mesoscale gravity wave is presented. This severe occurred in east China on 5 June 2009. High-frequency automatic weather station (AWS) data, visible satellite and Doppler radar data were combined to depict the features development several centers. The was manifested by surface pressure dip wind shift propagating westward away from early convection. propagated at speed >30 m s−1, which comparable with that previous...

Abstract Decadal trends of global precipitation are examined using the Climate Prediction Center (CPC) Merged Analysis Precipitation (CMAP), Global Climatology Project (GPCP), and National Centers for Environmental (NCEP)/National Atmospheric Research (NCAR) reanalysis data. The decadal average diverge a decreasing trend CMAP data, flat GPCP an increasing data is associated with reduction in high precipitation. related to offset between increase decrease low corresponds .

Improvements to the Kessler-type parameterization of warm cloud microphysical conversion processes (also called autoconversion) are proposed based on a large number CloudSat observations between June 2006 and April 2011 over Asian land areas. The emphasis is given vertical distribution liquid water content (LWC), particularly, threshold values LWC for autoconversion. results warrant new approach numerical autoconversion in clouds. One feature this that threshold, which has been treated as...

A large number of in-situ measurements cloud-precipitation microphysical properties have been made since 1960, including particle size distribution, concentration, and liquid water content clouds rain. These contributed to considerable progress in understanding processes precipitation significant improvements parameterizations cloud microphysics numerical models. This work reviews key findings regarding over China. The total concentrations various particles vary significantly, with certain...

Abstract This study investigated the kinetic and potential energy budgets during slow (SI) rapid intensification (RI) periods of Typhoon Mujigae, which occurred in October 2015, by conducting a Weather Research Forecasting model simulation. We found that conversion between asymmetric symmetric rotational circulations lower troposphere plays pivotal role initiating difference tendency RI SI via horizontal advection process circulations. Southerly easterly environmental flows transported...

Abstract A new convective–stratiform rainfall separation scheme is developed through combination of rain types separated by surface budget using a cloud‐resolving model simulation data during TOGA COARE . Three associated with vapor convergence, upward motions throughout the troposphere, and dominant liquid microphysical processes form convective rainfall. Maximum requires precipitation efficiency 100%, but it not maximum convergence. Vapor hydrometeor convergences contribute about 40% to...

A database is established that includes microphysical properties of raindrops, cloud droplets, ice nuclei (IN), snow crystals, and the relationship between radar reflectivity (Z) rainfall rate (R), based on in situ data reported existing literature. The coverage divided into East Asia other regions (Americas, Europe, Australia, Africa), only datasets obtained over land are considered. main variables presented compared with those regions. differences two as follows. average intercept (N0)...
