摘要这两部分论文详细介绍了由移动,W波段多普勒雷达收集的高分辨率风和反射率数据的分析:数据集捕获了内布拉斯加州中北部超级电池在5 1999年6月。从地面附近的龙卷风涡流的形成是从一系列扫描序列中描述的,范围从龙卷风发生前的30 s间隔到龙卷风一生的大部分时间内的10-15 s间隔。沿着增强的雷达反射率的弓形线发现了100-200 m宽度的旋风涡旋,这似乎是后翼阵线的前缘。在弓形雷达的鼻子和射流的前方,它们嵌入了大型旋风中。它的北部和东北部似乎没有与龙卷风相互作用。
Abstract This two-part paper details an analysis of high-resolution wind and reflectivity data collected by a mobile, W-band Doppler radar: The dataset captures the near-surface life history of a tornado in a supercell in north-central Nebraska on 5 June 1999. The formation of the tornado vortex near the ground is described from a sequence of sector scans ranging from 30-s intervals prior to tornadogenesis to 10–15-s intervals during much of the lifetime of the tornado. Cyclonic vortices of 100–200 m width were found along a bow-shaped line of enhanced radar reflectivity, at what appears to have been the leading edge of a rear-flank gust front. At the time of tornadogenesis, one of these vortices was located just ahead of the nose of the bow-shaped radar echo and a jet, which were embedded within a larger-scale cyclone. At other times, small-scale cyclonic vortices coexisted with the tornado along an arc-shaped line extending to its north and northeast but did not appear to interact with the tornado. The ...
