Description

A kind of method for finding Three body scattering in meteorology
Technical field
The present invention relates to meteorology field, particularly a kind of method for finding Three body scattering in meteorology.
Background technology
Weather radar is monitored strong convective weather and one of the main tool of early warning.The electromagnetic wave of weather radar transponder pulse form, when electromagnetic wave runs into precipitation material (snowflake, raindrop and hail etc.), most of energy moves on, and has sub-fraction energy by the to all the winds scattering of precipitation material, and the energy of scattering is backward received by radar.Zrnic in 1987 finds the meteorologic phenomena of Three body scattering, and called after " Three body scattering " (TBSS), according to the theory of Zrnic, 1) ripple that sends of radar by strong hail class precipitation material strong scatter to ground downwards; 2) ripple scattering to ground again by ground scatter to original precipitation material; 3) last, ripple returns radar again.
If the electromagnetic wave of radar emission runs into strong hail at A point, as shown in Figure 1, after this, electromagnetic most of energy continues onwards transmission, remainder is scattering towards periphery, wherein, the sub-fraction of scattering wave returns radar, detects target A to show, some scattering another earthward, form close echo again and be reflected back hail A, the portion of energy of close echo is absorbed by A, and separately some continues to advance to radar.Easily find out, when the intensity of hail A is very large, the path coming from the scattering wave arrival ground of hail A is longer, the energy getting back to the ripple of hail A is more weak, if only fall in Fig. 1 with BC(or BD) march to radar for the close echo dump energy in the border circular areas of radius can support this ripple, at this moment, radar the close echo signal on this part approach ground can be misread as along electromagnetic wave sender to and weak echo E away from hail certain distance continued presence, F, G, and this Distance Theory is more than or equal to A to ground distance, i.e. AF=h, AG=AC=AD>AF, h=R × sin α, thus within the scope of FG, there is arrowband weak echo image.
Liao Yufang, Yu little Ding [1] adds up the Three body scattering phenomenon that 23 strong storms occurred in China's 11 strong convection events produce, find that each strong storm creates the strong hail of diameter at more than 2cm, wherein have 4 strong storms to create the hail that diameter is more than 10cm.That is, if S-band China New Generation Weather Radar produces Three body scattering phenomenon, then the possibility of strong hail is almost 100%, simultaneously mostly with ground disastrous gale.Showing in the statistics in the north, Hunan, all there is Three body scattering in more than the 2cm diameter hail of about 80%.Again because the duration of TBSS mostly is between 30-60min, and the time that the time lag of ground hail shooting occurs in Three body scattering, so Three body scattering can be used as strong hail warning index, moreover, D.S.ZRNIC [2] demonstrates Three body scattering also has relation with hail size, like this, Three body scattering plays vital effect for hail early warning in short-term.But whether the strong reflection rate factor that the U.S. and the strong hail algorithm of China's China New Generation Weather Radar are inspection 50dBz expands to more than-20 DEG C of layer place height, hit rate is only 70%, and false alert rate is 49%.The northern data in Hunan are added up, between 2002 to 2005 in totally 19 hailstorms, have 16 Three body scattering, account for 84%,
Inventor is realizing in process of the present invention, finds at least there is following shortcoming and defect in prior art:
Also automatically do not detect the method for Three body scattering both at home and abroad at present, again because Three body scattering may appear in each elevation angle, artificial observation is wasted time and energy, and can have influence on the ageing of forecast; And timely early warning can not be carried out to hail disaster, cause economic loss and casualties.
