跟踪暖云内拉格朗日turbulence波动的创新小型超轻型无线电探空仪:电子设计
Innovative mini ultralight radiosondes to track Lagrangian turbulence fluctuations within warm clouds: electronic design
摘要:
云特性的表征仍然是天气预报和气候建模的一项具有挑战性的任务,因为云特性取决于微观和宏观尺度上相互依赖的自然过程。湍流在云内的粒子动力学中起着重要的作用;然而,湍流机制尚未完全理解,部分原因是在最小尺度上测量云的困难。为了解决这些知识差距,正在开发一种实验方法,通过创新的超轻型无线电探针,测量云形成中的细尺度湍流的影响,并产生现场云拉格朗日数据集。本文介绍了电子系统的设计,以及从实验室和现场实验中获得的结果,这些紧凑(直径约30厘米),重量轻(约20克),一次性装置设计被动浮动和跟踪小尺度湍流波动内暖云。完全定制的微型无线电探测板(5 cm x 5 cm)嵌入传感器,以测量局部波动并近实时地将数据传输到地面。测试证实,新开发的探测器性能良好,提供了有关太空中大气变量的准确信息。多个无线电探测器的集成允许系统和准确地监测大气湍流及其对云形成的影响。
英文摘要:
Characterization of cloud properties remains a challenging task for weather forecasting and climate modelling as cloud properties depend on interdependent natural processes at micro and macro scales. Turbulence plays an important role in particle dynamics inside clouds; however, turbulence mechanisms are not yet fully understood partly due to the difficulty of measuring clouds at the smallest scales. To address these knowledge gaps, an experimental method for measuring the influence of fine-scale turbulence in cloud formation in-situ and producing an in-field cloud Lagrangian dataset is being developed by means of innovative ultra-light radioprobes. This paper presents the electronic system design along with the obtained results from laboratory and field experiments regarding these compact (diameter about 30 cm), light-weight (about 20 g), and expendable devices designed to passively float and track small-scale turbulence fluctuations inside warm clouds. The fully customized mini radioprobe board (5 cm x 5 cm) embeds sensors to measure local fluctuations and transmit data to the ground in near real-time. The tests confirm that the newly developed probes perform well providing accurate information about atmospheric variables, referenced in space. The integration of multiple radioprobes allows for a systematic and accurate monitoring of atmospheric turbulence and its impact on cloud formation.
