关于超级单体的龙卷风形成,还有许多尚未解决的问题。后侧翼下降气流(RFD)和后侧翼下降气流阵风锋(RFDGF)在龙卷风形成过程中的作用是近年来引起研究界关注的一个问题。TWISTEX 2008(战术气象仪器在龙卷风中/附近取样实验)是一项野外实验,旨在收集龙卷风中和龙卷风附近的近地表数据。该项目的目标之一是记录RFDGF附近的运动学和热力学环境,并试图确定RFD/RFDGF对低层中气旋形成、龙卷风形成和龙卷风维持的贡献。
There are many unresolved issues regarding tornadogenesis in supercells. One question that has received recent attention in the research community is the role of the rear-flank downdraft (RFD) and rear-flank downdraft gust front (RFDGF) in tornadogenesis. TWISTEX 2008 (Tactical Weather Instrumented Sampling in/near Tornadoes Experiment) was a field experiment designed to collect near-surface data in and near tornadoes. One of the project objectives was to document the kinematic and thermodynamic environment in the vicinity of the RFDGF, and to try to determine the RFD/RFDGF’s contribution to low-level mesocyclogenesis, tornadogenesis and tornado maintenance.
