The first rainy season in southern China(from April to June) accounts for approximately 40% to 50% of the total yearly precipitation.Therefore,it is significant to conduct some research regarding the rainfall during the first rainy season.The precipitation is closely related to the changes in the winds,and wind spectrum distribution is considerably connected with the period of the weather system.Many previous studies regarding spectrum analysis using meteorological tower measurements have been carried out.However,due to the absence of wind measurements,there have been found to be several limitations for the spectrum analysis of the boundary layer.By applying Wind Profile Radar in atmospheric soundings,it has been possible to obtain high-altitude continuous wind data.Therefore,research studies regarding the spectrum based on high-reliability wind profile radar measurements at altitudes from 100 to 3 000 m,have been completed.The turbulence spectrum density was calculated by the wind profiling radar data at the 1 000 to 3 000 m level during rainy season(April,2012) at Yichun based on the FFT.This spectral analysis provided a new method for weather forecasting.The Yichun boundary layer wind profile was detected by five wave beams,with sounding levels from 100 to 5 980 m,and the sampling interval was set at six minutes.The wind profile radar provided the horizontal wind-speed data and signal-to-noise ratio(SNR),echo intensity,spectral width,and so on.The data were obtained from the period ranging from April 1st to May 5th,2012,and a quality control was applied.The average wind is usually treated as the mean wind of the data collected during a short period.However,the average wind of data collected during a long period tends to change with time,which is called a trend.The fluctuation of the wind is obtained by using a least-squares curve fitting to calculate the trend,and then this is deducted from the wind data.In this study,a spectral analysis was carried out with the vertical wind distribution and surface precipitation.The following results were revealed:1) A spectrum analysis of the wind profile radar observations at heights from 100 to 3 000 m was completed.The spectrum during the stable weather and rainy days showed different characteristics,which could then be used to analyze and research the weather systems;2) In the spectrum,two synoptic systems in different time scales were discovered.There were two periods of 5 to 7 days and 2 to 3 days,which appeared in the turbulent spectrum.These also were evident in the wind speed sequence chart and precipitation figures.The turbulence spectrum density during the 5- to 7-day period was found to be four times higher than during the 2- to 3-day period,and the wind speed was stronger as well;3) During the stable weather,the spectrum was determined to be smooth,with no peaks,whereas during the rainy days,there were several peaks observed in the spectrum.The peak of the 5- to 7-day weather system was found to be more obvious at 3 000 m,and was obviously reduced at the lower levels,which indicated that the air at approximately 3 000 m was colder,and wind energy was transmitting faster at the lower levels.The peak of the 2- to 3-day weather system was found to be more obvious in the lower levels.This was mainly due to the turbulence activities in the warmer sector.The results confirmed that,in a comparison of the two different time scale synoptic systems,the 5- to 7-day synoptic system was more profound and had stronger wind speeds.4) The positions of rain belts caused the different time scale synoptic systems.The oscillation from south to north of the rain belts resulted in both long period synoptic and short period synoptic systems,as a result of the fluctuation of the rain belts.The spectral features were found to differ with the different time scale analysis of the wind profiling radar data.The long-time data reflected the overall situation and time period of the system.Meanwhile,the short-time data mirrored the precipitation of the synoptic system.Furthermore,more data from different locations are required for a more comprehensive understanding of the first rainy season.
