We consider the TC lifecycle stage, geographic location (e.g., land, coast, and ocean), shear strength, and quadrant relative to the storm motion and environmental shear vectors. Total lightning maxima are found in the forward right quadrant relative to storm motion and downshear of the TC center, consistent with previous studies using mainly cloud-to-ground lightning. Increasing environmental shear focuses the lightning maxima to the downshear right quadrant with respect to the shear vector in tropical storm phases. Vertical profiles of radar reflectivity from the Global Precipitation Measurement mission show that super-electrically active convective precipitation features (>75 flashes) within the PTC phase of TCs have deeper mixed phase depths and higher reflectivity at −10°C than other phases, indicating the presence of more intense convection. Differences in the net convective behavior observed throughout TC evolution manifest in both the TC-scale frequency of lightning-producing cells and the intensity variations amongst individual convective cells. The combination of continuous lightning observations and precipitation snapshots improves our understanding of convective-scale processes in TCs, especially in PTC phases, as they traverse the tropics and mid-latitudes.</p>","PeriodicalId":15986,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1029/2023JD040227","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142170065","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results demonstrate a significant increase in the interannual variability of SIPI over SC around the mid-1990s. By comparing atmospheric and oceanic anomalies between two periods, P1 (1984–1993) and P2 (1994–2003), we identify that both the Silk Road pattern (SRP) and the western Pacific subtropical high (WPSH) play a role in influencing this interdecadal increase in SIPI interannual variability. These system anomalies are modulated by sea surface temperature anomalies (SSTA) in the North Atlantic (NA) and equatorial East Pacific (EP). During years with positive precipitation anomalies in P2, warming EP SSTA induces anomalous Walker cell and local Hadley cell, weakening the WPSH and enhancing convective activity, and increasing moisture transport over SC. The warming NA SSTA near 45°N triggers a more southerly propagation of SRP, thereby providing additional disturbance energy that enhances summer precipitation over SC. Conversely, during years with negative precipitation anomalies in P2, these processes occur in reverse. The enhanced interannual variability of local convective activity from P1 to P2 leads to a corresponding increase in the interannual variability of the WPSH, which, coupled with an amplified interannual variability of SRP, results in heightened interannual variability of SIPI. Additionally, the composite analysis of 30–90-day ISO events further substantiates the underlying mechanisms driving the interdecadal amplification of SIPI interannual variability.
