The research results reveal the unique mechanism structure of sandstorm disaster weather and the signification of irregular information,approve that the region digital diagrams has the capability to forecast the character and intension of transition disaster weather,and explain certainly that the meteorological problem is transformation problem of evolvement science.展开更多
