Identification Method and Analysis on Lightning Flash Initiation Phase and Size

  • 摘要: 基于LMA三维闪电定位数据,对2004年10月5日发生于美国新墨西哥州的一次超级单体过程的闪电初始及其尺度特征进行研究,提出闪电初始阶段自动判别及其特征参量提取方法,并给出参量分布特征。结果显示:闪电初始阶段上行负先导(下行负先导)的持续时间中值为13.5 ms(7.5 ms),三维位移中值为1.4 km(1.0 km),三维平均位移速度中值为9.2×104 m·s-1(1.2×105 m·s-1),上行负先导速度随时间递减,下行反之,二者与垂直方向夹角的中值分别为40°和54°。表征闪电尺度的闪电凸壳面积和闪电总长度的概率密度呈负幂函数分布,在小值方向分布更为集中。闪电水平延展距离中值为6.1 km,垂直延展距离中值为4.3 km,约83%的闪电其水平延展距离大于垂直延展距离;闪电的持续时间中值为271.0 ms。分析发现,以水平延展为主的闪电起始高度分布峰值位于8.5 km,以垂直延展为主的闪电起始高度分布峰值位于11 km。闪电初始阶段位移方向越接近水平,对应闪电垂直延展越小,说明闪电初始段的传播方向对于闪电垂直延展具有重要影响。
