The results showed that the solar ultraviolet radiation had obvious daily, seasonal and annual variations; the solar ultraviolet radiation was weak in the morning and evening but strong at noon; the maximum appeared from June to August, while the minimum appeared in November and December. It had significant correlation with total solar radiation, photosynthetically active radiation, air temperature, air humidity and ground temperature (0-5 cm). At present, the maximum intensity of ultraviolet radiation (UV-B) was 0.20-1.91 W/m2 from January to March and 0.13-1.43 W/m2 from October to De- cember respectively, which were lower than the safety standard for people and animals (2 W/mZ). However, the maximum might appear from April to September, ranging from 2.02 to 3.39 W/m2, which was easy to bring a threat and harm to people and animals.展开更多

Currently, we understand the nature of the UL from ground observations, but the corresponding theoretical research is lacking.

Simulation results indicate that the positive ULs are typically other-lightning-triggered ULs(OLTUL) and are usually a discharge phenomenon between the ground and the lower positive charge region appearing below the main middle negative charge region. The effect of the previous in-cloud lightning(IC) process of space electrical field provides favorable conditions for the initiation of a positive UL.

A negative UL is generally a discharge phenomenon of the dipole charge structure between the ground and the main negative charge region. The lower temperature stratification and the sinking of the hydrometeors typically initiate a negative UL. Negative ULs develop strongly and have more branches. The OLTUL is initiated mainly during the development stage of a thunderstorm, while the self-triggered UL(STUL) is initiated mainly during the dissipation stage of a thunderstorm.展开更多
