The rainy season from June to July in the East Asia is called as the Changma in Korea, the Meiyu in China, or the Baiu in Japan. The mesoscale convective systems which occur near a front frequently lead to severe weather phenomenon such as localized gust and heavy rainfall. An intensive field experiment was conducted at Chujado (33.95° N, 126.28° E) to characterize the precipitating system and the size distribution during a Changma period between 21 June 2007 and 11 July 2007. The precipitation system caused heavy rainfalls in Chujado for 20 h and three identified rainfall cases were analyzed using the Doppler radar data, disdrometer data, NCEP/NCAR reanalysis data, and sounding data Based on the radar reflectivity at Chujado, each rainfall system maintained for 7 h, 4 h, and 9 h, respectively. The analysis with the total vertical wind shear (TVWS) and the directional vertical wind shear (DVWS) shows that the temperature gradient was the strongest near the surface. Both warm and cold advections were occurred in all cases. The deep warm advection turns out to cause the longer rainfall lifetime and stronger rainrate but smaller raindrop size. The unstable atmospheric condition, which has cold advection at the surface and warm advection in higher level, causes the larger size diameter of raindrop. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
