13. Applications of the theory of blown‐ups to weather forecasting

Abstract

The nonhomogeneous information is applied to the study of sudden and severe weather processes in this paper, based on the theory of blown‐ups (OuYang, 1994). Severe weather processes, such as torrential rain and severe convection, are clarified first by using the nonhomogeneous parameters in the spring in Hubei Province, and second by combining with the severe convection forecasting criteria. We can distinguish the severe convective weather processes and forecast the short‐range severe convective weather by using this theory in the spring in Hubei province. After practical applications from March 15 to May 15 in 1995, it showed that the forecast accuracy was satisfactory.
