A prediction scheme based on dynamic similarity principle is proposed for tropical cyclone quantitative precipitation forecast at several hundred stations in China.Tropical cyclone precipitation generates in a certain synoptic situation. As a matter of fact, a similar tropical cyclone and interaction with environmental fields usually bring similar rainfall process.The key point of the scheme is to constitute prediction scheme with NWP product to seek similar process. For the sake of looking for similarity from more past records, put to use some key technique.Using the objective criterions which are made up of initial parameters of tropical cyclone and of the surround field and the numerical prediction products the similar samples are found out from past tropical cyclones by computer.The scheme is to constitute reasonable criteria for selecting tropical cyclones similar to the predicted one in both the storm feature itself and the large scale atmospheric environment interacting with the storm. Factors considered include initial tropical cyclone parameters, initial and historical large scale atmospheric environment, and future trend of large scale atmospheric environment. A similarity index is set up using a successive-dynamic method, which is non-linear in nature and can quantitatively describe the degree of similarity. By this index, several historical tropical cyclones are selected as cases similar to the predicted one to different extent. A consensus prediction for the precipitation at each station in future 48-hour at 6-hour intervals is then made using the index as weight coefficients for the precipitation of historical cases. Independent tests are carried out for tropical cyclones causing precipitation different in both strength and time duration to China and promising results are obtained. In these tests, the numerical predictions from global circulation models are used to describe the future trend of large scale atmospheric environments. The tropical cyclone quantitative precipitation forecast is forecasted by assessment upon similarity and weight of effects on account of local surround. Using the dynamic similitude scheme for tropical cyclone quantitative precipitation forecast to different rainfall intensity and last time tests is made. Tests demonstrate that this technique has positive prediction skill comparing to the climatology and persistency method.
