Abstract:

Based on the precipitation enhancement operation data of aircraft from 2016 to 2019 and inversion products of FY-2E/2G/4A meteorological geostationary satellite, using the method of determining the affected area of precipitation enhancement by HYSPLIT model and the analysis method of satellite inversion product and radar product, the response of cloud physical parameters of satellite inversion after precipitation enhancement seeding was analyzed, the cloud physical characteristics and evolution law after precipitation enhancement seeding were obtained, and the comprehensive application ability and benefits of meteorological satellites in the inspection and evaluation of artificial precipitation enhancement effect were improved.The result shows that: for most of the precipitation enhancement operations in the study, the four cloud physical parameters under the influence of natural variation and artificial seeding reach the maximum variations in 2~3 hours after the end of seeding.For the 9 aircraft precipitation enhancement operations, average variation ranges of cloud top temperature, cloud effective radius, optical thickness, liquid water path, and hourly precipitation in 3 hours after the end of seeding reach -1.44~2.09 ℃, -3.73~3.84 μm, -5.47~3.62, -112.59~61.12 mm, -0.06~0.27 mm, respectively.Cloud top temperature and hourly precipitation are increased, and cloud effective radius, optical thickness, and liquid water path are decreased for more than half of the precipitation enhancement operations, and precipitation for individual operations is reduced.For different cloud bodies, when the distribution of liquid water and the structure of the cloud system vary dramatically and are very uneven, the variations of cloud physics and precipitation induced by precipitation enhancement seeding will be significantly different.At present, for the precipitation variation induced by natural variation and artificial seeding, it's difficult to eliminate the influence of the two factors on precipitation variation scientifically and completely.

Key words: FY geostationary satellite, Precipitation enhancement seeding, Cloud physical response, Cloud effective radius
