基于二维视频粒子谱仪(2DVD)观测的北京降雪微物理特征研究
Winter Snowfall Microphysics Characterized by a 2-D Video Disdrometer(2DVD)in Beijing
摘要
Abstract
The study of snow microphysics holds great significance in understanding the mechanism of winter precipitation and optimizing the cloud microphysical parametrization scheme in the weather model.However,at present,very few studies have analyzed the microphysical characteristics of snowfall in China.To thoroughly understand the microphysical characteristics of snowfall in Beijing,this paper presents a detailed analysis of particle size distributions(PSDs),fall velocity(V),snow density(ρ)and aspec ratio(AR),and their relationships with equivalent diameter(D)for six snowfall events,using data from a 2D video disdrometer(2DVD).The results are as follows:(1)The density of snow particles with a median volume diameter(D0)less than 1.5 mm is lower than values reported in other literature.The coefficient in the V(D)relationship is related to density,increasing with it,and the terminal velocity is slightly greater than that observed in Colorado but less than that in Nanjing.(2)The 5-minute PSDs for each case align well with the exponential and normalized gamma distribution models.The temporal variations of the slope parameter(Λ)and the concentration parameter(N0 for exponential,Nw for gamma)were generally consistent between the two models,while the snowfall rate(SR),total number concentration(Nt)and D0 calculated from gamma PSD are better consistency with the direct 2DVD measurements.(3)Introducing density(ρ)into the Nw-D0 relationship improved the correlation.(4)This study presents the first measurements of snowflake aspect ratio for Beijing,showing a mean ar of 0.76 and a tendency to approach 1 for diameters more than 2.5 mm,in agreement with other studies.(5)When the radar reflectivity(Ze)is constant,an increase in SR is accompanied by a decrease in D0 and increases in Nw and ρ.Conversely,when SR is constant,an increase in Ze is closely related to an increase in D0 and decreases in ρ and Nw.Compared to the Ze-SR relationship derived for Nanjing,the relationship obtained in this study(Ze=851 SR1.33)gives lower SR estimates for the same Ze.These features demonstrate that quantitative snowfall estimation using radar entails greater uncertainty compared to quantitative rainfall estimation.关键词
