Abstract
The characteristics of raindrop size distribution during Typhoon Meranti, determined using disdrometer (LPA10) data collected from 14 to Sep. 15, 2016 in Fujian Province, China, were associated with different parts of the storm. From the front side of the rain band to the central region and then to the rear side or to the residual clouds of Typhoon Meranti, the top of the radar echo, reflectivity, raindrop number concentration and spectrum width all increased when Meranti moved close and then decreased as it moved away. Moreover, precipitation was produced from the stratiform to the oceanic convective and then to the oceanic convective-stratiform mixed clouds or to the stratiform.
期刊介绍:
Tropical Cyclone Research and Review is an international journal focusing on tropical cyclone monitoring, forecasting, and research as well as associated hydrological effects and disaster risk reduction. This journal is edited and published by the ESCAP/WMO Typhoon Committee (TC) and the Shanghai Typhoon Institute of the China Meteorology Administration (STI/CMA). Contributions from all tropical cyclone basins are welcome.
Scope of the journal includes:
• Reviews of tropical cyclones exhibiting unusual characteristics or behavior or resulting in disastrous impacts on Typhoon Committee Members and other regional WMO bodies
• Advances in applied and basic tropical cyclone research or technology to improve tropical cyclone forecasts and warnings
• Basic theoretical studies of tropical cyclones
• Event reports, compelling images, and topic review reports of tropical cyclones
• Impacts, risk assessments, and risk management techniques related to tropical cyclones
