A Method of Estimating Vertical Velocity of Mesoscale Convective Cloud Cluster with Satellite Imagery

Shuiping Zhang, Pla Uni

Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

In this paper a model has been given to estimate the vertical velocity of mesoscale convective cloud with high resolution infrared statellite imagery, and experiments are conducted. The results indicate that the model could show the character of mesoscale convective cloudcluster′s development and evolution quantitatively and the vertical velocity could provide clues for mesoscale numerical forecast and the analysis and forecast of mesoscale convective clouds as well.
