四川盆地春季一次强对流过程引发的区域大风分析

Analysis of a regional gale event caused by severe convection during Spring in Sichuan Basin

  • 摘要: 利用地面加密自动站及探空、X波段相控阵雷达、S波段雷达及拼图、ERA5再分析等资料,对2022年4月11—12日四川盆地强对流过程引发的区域大风特征及成因进行分析。结果表明:(1) 高空槽东移携带干冷空气叠加在低层暖脊之上,配合地面冷锋和辐合线,为强对流的发生提供了有利的环境条件。(2) 过程中极大风速的分布具有明显的地域差异,四川盆地北部受天气尺度冷锋过境影响,形成大范围8~9级混合性大风;四川盆地南部暖湿气流北上触发对流,出现强且分散的雷暴大风;四川盆地中部一线,冷暖空气交汇触发强烈对流天气,强下沉有效位能造成的对流下沉支与密度流共同作用,形成西北—东南向线状分布的11~13级大风。(3) 此次强雷暴大风精细落区具有一定的可预报性,地面3 h负变压区能表征冷锋前暖平流强度,并提前1~2 h指示较周边地区更强的对流风暴发生位置;(4) X波段相控阵雷达可观测到直接造成重庆中心城区雷暴大风的γ中尺度对流风暴精细演变过程,大风出现前,主体回波前侧新生单体的雷达反射率因子质心在10 min内快速下降,该特征可提前10~20 min预警雷暴大风。此过程持续时间短,在S波段雷达上无法完整呈现。

     

    Abstract: The surface automatic station data, sounding data, X-band phased array radar, S-band radar and its mosaic, European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts Reanalysis version 5 (ERA5) were used to. analysis a regional gale event caused by severe convection occurred in Sichuan Basin on 11-12 April, 2022. The results are as follows. (1) an eastward-moving trough brings dry, cold air which overlays a low-level warm ridge, aligning with the ground cold front and convergence line to create favorable conditions for deep convection. (2) The distribution of maximum wind exhibits regional variability. The northern basin area experienced mixed-type gusts of force 8-9 scale due to the cold front. Northward intrusion of warm and moist airflow into the southern Sichuan Basin triggered convection, resulting in strong and scattered thunderstorm wind gusts. In the central basin, the convergence of warm and cold air leads to severe convection, forming a northwest-southeast linear distribution of gusts reaching force 11-13 scale. (3) The refined region of these thunderstorm wind gusts possesses some predictability. Three-hour ground pressure variation indicates the intensity of warm advection prior to the cold front. Zones of negative pressure variation provide a 1-2-hour advance indication of the location where more intense thunderstorm gales are likely to occur compared to surrounding areas. (4) X-band phased array radar offers detailed observations of γ-mesoscale convective storms that directly contribute to the wind gusts in Chongqing. Observations reveal that prior to the onset of wind gusts, the radar reflectivity centroid of new cell rapidly descends within 10 minutes, which allowing for a 10-20-minute lead time to issue warnings for impending severe thunderstorm wind gusts. This feature is characterized by a short duration and is not fully captured by S-band radar.
