摘要(Abstract):
本文研究太平洋上“射线状”云——一种尚未纳入现行云分类体系的云的基本特征及分布规律。利用中分辨率成像光谱仪(MODIS)可见光卫星云图、NOAA-20和Suomi NPP可见光和红外卫星云图,对2017—2021年发生在太平洋上空257个“射线状”云个例进行了统计分析。结果表明,“射线状”云呈近似圆形或椭圆形,有明显的云系中心和清晰的带状径向云臂由中心向四周延伸,多数个例发生在中低纬度的东南太平洋和东北太平洋上空,全年除4月份外各月份均有“射线状”云发生,高频月份为6、7和8月,中频月份为5、9、10和11月,低频月份为1、2、3、4和12月。部分“射线状”云个例的云系有旋转态势,北半球呈逆时针旋转,南半球呈顺时针旋转。“射线状”云云顶之上有逆温层存在,“射线状”云内部的运动特征为:云系低层以水平运动为主,低层辐合;云系中层以上升运动为主,水平方向辐合辐散较弱;云系顶层受稳定逆温层的阻碍无法继续向上发展,垂直气压速度(p-速度)近乎消失,转化为水平方向上的强辐散。本文的研究结果可为进一步研究“射线状”云形成的物理机制打下基础。
