EMethod] Based on thunder observation and lightning location data in Tong'an district from 2005 to 2010, the distribution characteristics of lightning in Tong'an district were analyzed. [ Resldt~ Thunder and lightning occurred frequently from March to November and was very active during May and September. Spatial distribution was uneven, more frequently in northern mountainous area and less in south plain area. The related circulation patterns and weather were also studied. The weather type causing severe lightning can be divided into three categories and six types, which were the upper air trough, under the control of the subtropical high and tropical systems, respectively. [ Conclusion] The study pro- vided reference for carrying out damage evaluation, pre-waming and report of thunder and lightning.展开更多

The results showed that wind direction shear between low and high levels and low-level convergence zones provided favorable circulation background for the strong thunderstorm process,while high energy and high humidity,strong thermal instability and ascending motion at low and middle levels offered beneficial environmental conditions for the formation of the thunderstorm. 9 620 return strokes of cloud-to-ground lightning were monitored by the lightning positioning network,and cloud-to-ground lightning was distributed like bands between 584 and 586 hP a. The occurrence of cloud-to-ground lightning was mainly related to echo top and echo intensity at-10 ℃ stratification height,and it mainly appeared in zones where echo top height was larger than 13 km and echo intensity at-10 ℃ stratification height was 35-40 dB Z. Wind convergence and maintaining of high radial velocity were favorable for the development of convective echoes and occurrence of cloud-to-ground lightning.展开更多
