| 1 | Ensemble Forecasts of Tropical Cyclone Track with Orthogonal Conditional Nonlinear Optimal Perturbations显示文摘This paper preliminarily investigates the application of the orthogonal conditional nonlinear optimal perturbations(CNOPs)–based ensemble forecast technique in MM5(Fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University–National Center for Atmospheric Research Mesoscale Model). The results show that the ensemble forecast members generated by the orthogonal CNOPs present large spreads but tend to be located on the two sides of real tropical cyclone(TC) tracks and have good agreements between ensemble spreads and ensemble-mean forecast errors for TC tracks. Subsequently, these members reflect more reasonable forecast uncertainties and enhance the orthogonal CNOPs–based ensemble-mean forecasts to obtain higher skill for TC tracks than the orthogonal SVs(singular vectors)–, BVs(bred vectors)– and RPs(random perturbations)–based ones. The results indicate that orthogonal CNOPs of smaller magnitudes should be adopted to construct the initial ensemble perturbations for short lead–time forecasts, but those of larger magnitudes should be used for longer lead–time forecasts due to the effects of nonlinearities. The performance of the orthogonal CNOPs–based ensemble-mean forecasts is case-dependent,which encourages evaluating statistically the forecast skill with more TC cases. Finally, the results show that the ensemble forecasts with only initial perturbations in this work do not increase the forecast skill of TC intensity, which may be related with both the coarse model horizontal resolution and the model error. | Zhenhua HUO Wansuo DUAN Feifan ZHOU | 2019 | Advances in Atmospheric Sciences2019,36,2: | 11 |
| 2 | Science and Prediction of Heavy Rainfall over China:Research Progress since the Reform and Opening-Up of New China显示文摘This paper reviews the major progress on development of the science and prediction of heavy rainfall over China since the beginning of the reform and opening-up of new China(roughly between 1980 and 2019).The progress of research on the physical mechanisms of heavy rainfall over China is summarized from three perspectives:1)the relevant synoptic weather systems,2)heavy rainfall in major sub-regions of China,and 3)heavy rainfall induced by typhoons.The development and application of forecasting techniques for heavy rainfall are summarized in terms of numerical weather prediction techniques and objective forecasting methods.Greatly aided by the rapid progress in meteorological observing technology and substantial improvement in electronic computing,studies of heavy rainfall in China have advanced to investigating the evolution of heavy-rain-producing storms and observational analysis of the cloud microphysical features.A deeper and more systematic understanding of the synoptic systems of importance to the production of heavy rainfall has also been developed.Operational forecast of heavy rainfall in China has changed from subjective weather event forecasts to a combination of both subjective and objective quantitative precipitation forecasts,and is now advancing toward probabilistic quantitative precipitation forecasts with the provision of forecast uncertainty information. | Yali LUO Jisong SUN Ying LI Rudi XIA Yu DU Shuai YANG Yuanchun ZHANG Jing CHEN Kan DAI Xueshun SHEN Haoming CHEN Feifan ZHOU Yimin LIU Shenming FU Mengwen WU Tiangui XIAO Yangruixue CHEN Huiqi LI Mingxin LI | 2020 | Journal of Meteorological Research2020,34,3: | 10 |
| 3 | Possible Sources of Forecast Errors Generated by the Global/Regional Assimilation and Prediction System for Landfalling Tropical Cyclones.PartⅠ:Initial Uncertainties显示文摘This paper investigates the possible sources of errors associated with tropical cyclone(TC) tracks forecasted using the Global/Regional Assimilation and Prediction System(GRAPES). The GRAPES forecasts were made for 16 landfalling TCs in the western North Pacific basin during the 2008 and 2009 seasons, with a forecast length of 72 hours, and using the default initial conditions('initials', hereafter), which are from the NCEP-FNL dataset, as well as ECMWF initials. The forecasts are compared with ECMWF forecasts. The results show that in most TCs, the GRAPES forecasts are improved when using the ECMWF initials compared with the default initials. Compared with the ECMWF initials, the default initials produce lower intensity TCs and a lower intensity subtropical high, but a higher intensity South Asia high and monsoon trough, as well as a higher temperature but lower specific humidity at the TC center. Replacement of the geopotential height and wind fields with the ECMWF initials in and around the TC center at the initial time was found to be the most efficient way to improve the forecasts. In addition, TCs that showed the greatest improvement in forecast accuracy usually had the largest initial uncertainties in TC intensity and were usually in the intensifying phase. The results demonstrate the importance of the initial intensity for TC track forecasts made using GRAPES, and indicate the model is better in describing the intensifying phase than the decaying phase of TCs. Finally, the limit of the improvement indicates that the model error associated with GRAPES forecasts may be the main cause of poor forecasts of landfalling TCs. Thus, further examinations of the model errors are required. | Feifan ZHOU Munehiko YAMAGUCHI Xiaohao QIN | 2016 | Advances in Atmospheric Sciences2016,33,7: | 5 |
| 4 | Combined remediation of DDT congeners and cadmium in soil by Sphingobacterium sp.D-6 and Sedum alfredii Hance显示文摘Combined pollution of 1,1,1-trichloro-2,2-bis (4-chlorophenyl) ethane (DDT) and cadmium (Cd) in agricultural soils is of great concern because they present serious risk to food security and human health.In order to develop a cost-effective and safe method for the removal of DDTs and Cd in soil,combined remediation of DDTs and Cd in soil by Sphingobacterium sp.D-6 and the hyperaccumulator,Sedum alfredii Hance was investigated.After treatment for 210 days,the degradation half-lives of DDTs in soils treated by strain D-6 decreased by 8.1% to 68.0% compared with those in the controls.The inoculation of strain D-6 into soil decreased the uptake of DDTs by pak choi and S.alfredii.The shoots/roots ratios of S.alfredii for the Cd accumulation ranged from 12.32 to 21.75.The Cd concentration in soil decreased to 65.8%-71.8% for S.alfredii treatment and 14.1%-58.2% for S.alfredii and strain D-6 combined treatment,respectively,compared with that in the control.The population size of the DDTs-degrading strain,Simpson index (1/D) and soil respiratory rate decreased in the early stage of treatment and then gradually increased,ultimately recovering to or exceeding the initial level.The results indicated that synchronous incorporation of strain D-6 and S.alfredii into soil was found to significantly (p 0.05) enhance the degradation of DDTs in soil and the hyperaccumulation of Cd in S.alfredii.It was concluded that strain D-6 and S.alfredii could be used successfully to control DDTs and Cd in contaminated soil. | Hua Fang Wei Zhou Zhengya Cao Feifan Tang Dandan Wang Kailin Liu Xiangwei Wu Xiao'e Yang Yongge Sun Yunlong Yu | 2012 | Journal of Environmental Sciences2012,24,6: | 5 |
| 5 | Possible Sources of Forecast Errors Generated by the Global/Regional Assimilation and Prediction System for Landfalling Tropical Cyclones. Part Ⅱ: Model Uncertainty显示文摘This paper investigates the possible sources of errors associated with tropical cyclone(TC) tracks forecasted using the Global/Regional Assimilation and Prediction System(GRAPES). In Part I, it is shown that the model error of GRAPES may be the main cause of poor forecasts of landfalling TCs. Thus, a further examination of the model error is the focus of Part II.Considering model error as a type of forcing, the model error can be represented by the combination of good forecasts and bad forecasts. Results show that there are systematic model errors. The model error of the geopotential height component has periodic features, with a period of 24 h and a global pattern of wavenumber 2 from west to east located between 60?S and 60?N. This periodic model error presents similar features as the atmospheric semidiurnal tide, which reflect signals from tropical diabatic heating, indicating that the parameter errors related to the tropical diabatic heating may be the source of the periodic model error. The above model errors are subtracted from the forecast equation and a series of new forecasts are made. The average forecasting capability using the rectified model is improved compared to simply improving the initial conditions of the original GRAPES model. This confirms the strong impact of the periodic model error on landfalling TC track forecasts. Besides, if the model error used to rectify the model is obtained from an examination of additional TCs, the forecasting capabilities of the corresponding rectified model will be improved. | Feifan ZHOU Wansuo DUAN He ZHANG Munehiko YAMAGUCHI | 2018 | Advances in Atmospheric Sciences2018,35,10: | 2 |

| 7 | Triangulation of red sprites observed above a mesoscale convective system in North China显示文摘The triangulation of red sprites was obtained, based on concurrent observations over a mesoscale convective system(MCS) in North China from two stations separated by about 450 km. In addition, broadband sferics from the sprite-producing lightning were measured at five ground stations, making it possible to locate and identify the individual causative lightning discharges for different elements in this dancing sprite event. The results of our analyses indicate that the sprites were produced above the trailing stratiform region of the MCS, and their parent strokes were located mainly in the peripheral area of the stratiform. The lateral offset between sprites and causative strokes ranges from a few km to more than 50 km. In a particularly bright sprite, with a distinct halo feature and streamers descending down to an altitude of approximately 48 km, the sprite current signal identified in the electric sferic, measured at a range of about 1,110 km, peaked at approximately 1 ms after the return stroke. | YongPing Wang GaoPeng Lu Ming Ma HongBo Zhang YanFeng Fan GuoJin Liu ZheRun Wan Yu Wang Kang-Ming Peng ChangZhi Peng FeiFan Liu BaoYou Zhu BinBin Ni XuDong Gu Long Chen Juan Yi RuoXian Zhou | 2019 | Earth and Planetary Physics2019,3,2: | 2 |
| 8 | New techniques of on-line biological sample processing and their application in the field of biopharmaceutical analysis显示文摘Biological sample pretreatment is an important step in biological sample analysis. Due to the diversity of biological matrices, the analysis of target substances in these samples presents significant challenges to sample processing. To meet these emerging demands on biopharmaceutical analysis, this paper summarizes several new techniques of on-line biological sample processing: solid phase extraction, solid phase micro-extraction, column switching, limited intake filler, molecularly imprinted solid phase extraction,tubular column, and micro-dialysis. We describe new developments, principles, and characteristics of these techniques, and the application of liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry(LC–MS) in biopharmaceutical analysis with these new techniques in on-line biological sample processing. | Jie Peng Fang Tang Rui Zhou Xiang Xie Sanwang Li Feifan Xie Peng Yu Lingli Mu | 2016 | Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica B2016,6,6: | 1 |

| 10 | Intracellular pharmacokinetic study of zidovudine and its phosphorylated metabolites显示文摘Zidovudine(AZT), the first drug approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus(HIV) infection, is metabolized in the host cells to 5′-AZT triphosphate(AZT-TP) which inhibits HIV reverse transcriptase. As the pharmacokinetics of AZT and its phosphorylated metabolites in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells(h PBMCs) is limited, the aim of this study was to determine the pharmacokinetic parameters of AZT and its phosphorylated metabolites in h PBMCs from 12 healthy Chinese male subjects after a single oral dose of 600 mg of AZT. Blood samples were collected prior to drug administration, then at 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 8 and 10 h after drug administration. Mononuclear cells collected by Ficoll-Hypaque density gradient centrifugation were used for determination of AZT and metabolites [AZT monophosphate(AZT-MP), AZT diphosphate(AZT-DP) and AZT-TP] and the plasma was used to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of AZT. Plasma concentration of AZT peaked within 0.583 h and intracellular concentrations of AZT, AZT-MP, AZT-DP and AZT-TP peaked within 1.083, 1.500, 1.417 and 1.583 h, respectively. AZT in plasma was eliminated rapidly with t1/2of 2.022 h, and AZT-MP, AZT-DP and AZT-TP were eliminated with t1/2of 13.428,8.285 and 4.240 h, respectively. The plasma concentration of the phosphorylated metabolites was not quantifiable. | Lingli Mu Rui Zhou Fang Tang Xingling Liu Sanwang Li Feifan Xie Xiang Xie Jie Peng Peng Yu | 2016 | Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica B2016,6,2: | 1 |
| 11 | Hydrophobic aerogel-modified hemostatic gauze with thermal management performance显示文摘Current hemostatic agents or dressings are not efficient under extremely hot and cold environments due to deterioration of active ingredients,water evaporation and ice crystal growth.To address these challenges,we engineered a biocompatible hemostatic system with thermoregulatory properties for harsh conditions by combining the asymmetric wetting nano-silica aerogel coated-gauze(AWNSA@G)with a layer-by-layer(LBL)structure.Our AWNSA@G was a dressing with a tunable wettability prepared by spraying the hydrophobic nano-silica aerogel onto the gauze from different distances.The hemostatic time and blood loss of the AWNSA@G were 5.1 and 6.9 times lower than normal gauze in rat’s injured femoral artery model.Moreover,the modified gauze was torn off after hemostasis without rebleeding,approximately 23.8 times of peak peeling force lower than normal gauze.For the LBL structure,consisting of the nano-silica aerogel layer and a n-octadecane phase change material layer,in both hot(70℃)and cold(-27℃)environments,exhibited dual-functional thermal management and maintained a stable internal temperature.We further verified our composite presented superior blood coagulation effect in extreme environments due to the LBL structure,the pro-coagulant properties of nano-silica aerogel and unidirectional fluid pumping of AWNSA@G.Our work,therefore,shows great hemostasis potential under normal and extreme temperature environments. | Xiaoli Jia Chao Hua Fengbo Yang Xiaoxiao Li Peng Zhao Feifan Zhou Yichi Lu Hao Liang Malcolm Xing Guozhong Lyu | 2023 | Bioactive Materials2023,,8: | 1 |

| 13 | SINGLE CELL IMAGING OF BAX TRANSLOCATION DURING APOPTOSIS INDUCED BY PHOTOFRIN-PDT显示文摘Apoptosis is an important cellular event that plays a key role in the therapy of many diseases.The mechanism of the initiation and regulation of photodynamic therapy(PDT)–induced apoptosis is complex.Our previous study found that Photofrin was localized primarily in mitochondria,the primary targets of Photofrin-PDT.The key role of Bax in the mitochondria-mediated apoptosis has been demonstrated in many systems.In order to determine the role of Bax in the mitochondrion-mediated apoptosis induced by Photofrin-PDT,we used the GFP-Bax plasmid to monitor the dynamics of Bax activation after PDT treatment.With laser scanning confocal microscopy,we found that Bax did not translocate from the cytosol to mitochondria when the mitochondrial membrane potential(∆Ψm)disappeared,measured by TMRM.Thus,for Photofrin-PDT,the commitment to cell death is independent of Bax activation. | FEIFAN ZHOU DA XING WEI R.CHEN | 2009 | Journal of Innovative Optical Health Sciences2009,2,2: | 0 |
| 14 | An ERA5 tropospheric parameters-augmented approach for improving GNSS precise point positioning显示文摘Precise Point Positioning(PPP) technology has developed into a potent instrument for geodetic positioning, ionospheric modeling, tropospheric atmospheric parameter detection, and seismic monitoring.As atmospheric reanalysis data products’ accuracy and spatiotemporal resolution have improved recently, it has become important to apply these products to obtain high-accuracy tropospheric delay parameters, like zenith tropospheric delay(ZTD) and tropospheric horizontal gradient. These tropospheric delay parameters can be applied to PPP to reduce the convergence time and to increase the accuracy in the vertical direction of the position. The European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts Reanalysis 5(ERA5) atmospheric reanalysis data is the latest product with a high spatiotemporal resolution released by the European Center for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts(ECMWF). Only a few researches have evaluated the application of ERA5 data to Global Navigation Satellite System(GNSS)PPP. Therefore, this study compared and validated the ZTD products derived from ERA5 data using ZTD values provided by 290 global International GNSS Service(IGS) stations for 2016-2017. The results indicated a stable performance for ZTD, with annual average bias and RMS values of 0.23 cm and 1.09 cm,respectively. Further, GNSS observations for one week in each of the four seasons(spring: DOY 92-98;summer: DOY 199-205;autumn: DOY 275-281;and winter: DOY 22-28) from 34 multi-GNSS experiments(MGEX) stations distributed globally in 2016 were considered to evaluate the performance of ERA5-derived tropospheric delay products in GNSS PPP. The performance of ERA5-enhanced PPP was compared with that of the two standard GNSS PPP schemes(without estimated tropospheric horizontal gradient and with estimated tropospheric horizontal gradient). The results demonstrated that ERA5-enhanced GNSS PPP showed no significant improvement in the convergence times in both the Eastern(E) and Northern(N) directions, while the average convergence time over four weeks in the vertical(U)direction improved by 53.3% and 52.7%, respectively(in the case of pngm station). The average convergence times for each week in the U direction of the northern and southern hemisphere stations indicated a decrease of 16.3%, 12.6%, 9.6%, and 9.1%, and 16.9%, 9.6%, 8.9%, and 14.5%, respectively.Regarding positioning accuracy, ERA5-enhanced PPP showed an improvement of 13.3% and 16.2% over the two standard PPP schemes in the U direction, respectively. No significant improvement in the positioning performance was observed in both the E and N directions. Thus, this study demonstrated the potential application of the ERA5 tropospheric parameters-augmented approach to Beidou navigation and positioning. | Liangke Huang Feifan Liu Lijie Guo Guiwen Lan Lv Zhou Cheng Wang Lilong Liu | 2023 | Geodesy and Geodynamics2023,14,5: | 0 |
| 15 | Leucine deprivation results in antidepressant effects via GCN2 in AgRP neurons显示文摘Essential amino acids(EAAs)are crucial nutrients,whose levels change in rodents and patients with depression.However,how the levels of a single EAA affects depressive behaviors remains elusive.Here,we demonstrate that although deprivation of the EAA leucine has no effect in unstressed mice,it remarkably reverses the depression-like behaviors induced by chronic restraint stress(CRS).This beneficial effect is independent of feeding and is applicable to the dietary deficiency of other EAAs.Furthermore,the effect of leucine deprivation is suppressed by central injection of leucine or mimicked by central injection of leucinol.Moreover,hypothalamic agouti-related peptide(AgRP)neural activity changes during CRS and leucine deprivation,and chemogenetically inhibiting AgRP neurons eliminates the antidepressant effects of leucine deprivation.Finally,the leucine deprivation-regulated behavioral effects are mediated by amino acid sensor general control non-derepressible 2(GCN2)in AgRP neurons.Taken together,our results suggest a new drug target and/or dietary intervention for the reduction of depressive symptoms. | Feixiang Yuan Shangming Wu Ziheng Zhou Fuxin Jiao Hanrui Yin Yuguo Niu Haizhou Jiang Shanghai Chen Feifan Guo | 2023 | Life Metabolism2023,2,1: | 0 |
| 16 | High performance Ga N-based hybrid white micro-LEDs integrated with quantum-dots显示文摘Hybrid white micro-pillar structure light emitting diodes(LEDs)have been manufacture utilizing blue micro-LEDs arrays integrated with 580 nm CIS((CuInS2-ZnS)/ZnS)core/shell quantum dots.The fabricated hybrid white micro-LEDs have good electrical properties,which are manifested in relatively low turn-on voltage and reverse leakage current.High-quality hybrid white light emission has been demonstrated by the hybrid white micro-LEDs after a systemic optimization,in which the corresponding color coordinates are calculated to be(0.3303,0.3501)and the calculated color temperature is 5596 K.This result indicates an effective way to achieve high-performance white LEDs and shows great promise in a large range of applications in the future including micro-displays,bioinstrumentation and visible light communication. | Feifan Xu Xu Cen Bin Liu Danbei Wang Tao Tao Ting Zhi Qi Wang Zili Xie Yugang Zhou Youdou Zheng Rong Zhang | 2020 | Journal of Semiconductors2020,41,3: | 0 |
| 17 | Effects of LPLI on microglial phagocytosis in LPS-induced neuroinflammation model显示文摘Microglial activation plays an important role in neurodegenerative diseases.Once activated,they have macrophage-like capabilities,which can be beneficial by phagocytosis and harmful by se-cretion of neurotoxins.However,the resident microglia always fail to trigger an effective pha-gocytic response to clear dead cells or Aβdeposits during the progression of neurodegeneration.Therefore,the regulation of microglial phagocytosis is considered a useful strategy in searchingfor neuroprotective treatments.In this study,our results showed that low-power laser iradiation(LPLI)(20 J/cm²)could enhance microglial phagocytic function in LPS-activated microglia.Wefound that LPLI-mediated microglial phagocytosis is a Rac-1-dependent actin-based process,that a constitutively activated form of Rac1(RaclQ61L)induced a higher level of actin pol-ymerization than cells transfected with wild-type Racl,whereas a dominant negative form ofRacl(RaclT17N)markedly suppressed actin polymerization.In addition,the involvement of Racl activation after LPLI treatment was also observed by using a Raichu fluorescence resonance energy transfer(FRET)-based biosensor.We also found that PI3K/Akt pathway was required inthe LPLI-induced Raci activation.Our research may provide a feasible therapeutic approach tocontrol the progression of neurodegenerative diseases. | Sheng Song Wei Chen Feifan Zhou | 2014 | Journal of Innovative Optical Health Sciences2014,7,3: | 0 |
| 18 | Interstitial photoacoustic technique and computational simulation for temperature distribution and tissue optical properties in interstitial laser photothermal interaction显示文摘Interstitial laser immunotherapy(ILIT)is designed to use photothermal and immunological inter-actions for treatment of metastatic cancers.The photothermal ffect is crucial in inducing anti-tumorimmune responses in the host.Tissue temperature and tssue optical properties are important factorsin this process.In this study,a device combining interstitial photoacoustic(PA)technique andinterstitial laser photothermal interaction is proposed.Together with computational simulation,thisdevice was designed to determine temperature distributions and tissue optical properties during lasertreatment.Experiments were performed usinger-ivoFporcine liver tissue.Our results demonstratedthat interstitial PA signal amplitude was linearly dependent on tisue temperature in the tempera-ture ranges of 20-60℃,as wll as 65-80℃,with a dfferent slope,due to the change of tissue opticalproperties.Using the directly measured temperature in the tissue around the interstitial optical fiberdiffusion tip for calibration,the theoretical temperature distribution predicted by the bioheatequation was used to extract optical properties of tssue.Finally,the three-dimensional temperature distribution was simulated to guide tumor destruction and immunological stimulation,Thus,thisnovel device and method could be used for monitoring and controlling ILIT for cancer treatment. | Zhifang Li Haiyu Chen Feifan Zhou Hui Li Wei R.Chen | 2018 | Journal of Innovative Optical Health Sciences2018,,1: | 0 |
| 19 | ANTI-TUMOR RESPONSES INDUCED BY LASER IRRADIATION AND IMMUNOLOGICAL STIMULATION USING A MOUSE MAMMARY TUMOR MODEL显示文摘Anti-tunor immunological response induced by local intervention is ideal for treatment of metastatic tumors.Laser immunot herapy was developed to synergize photot hermal interaction with immunological stimulation for cancer treatment.Using an infrared laser,indocyanine green(ICG,as a light abeorbing agent),and glycated chitosan(GC,as an immunostimulant),.laser imm unot herapy has resulted in tumor suppression and anti-tumor responses in pre-clinical as well as clinical studies.To further understand the mechanism of laser immunotherapy,the efects of laser and GC treatment without specifc enhancement of laser absorption were studied.Passive adoptive immunity transfer was perfomed using splenocytes as immune cells.Spleen cells harvested from tumor-bearing mice treated by laser+GC provided 60%immunity in naive recipients.Furthermore,cytotoxicity and TNF-ar secretion by splenocytes from treated mice also indicated that laser+GC induced immunity was tumor-specific.The high level of infiltrating T cells in tumors after laser+GC treatment furt her confirned a specific anti-tumor immune response.Therefore,laser+GC could prove to be a promisi ng selective local trea tment modality that induces a systemic anti-tumor response,with appropriate laser parameters and GC doses. | FEIFAN ZHOU XIAOSONG LI SHENG SONG JOSEPH T.ACQUAVIVA III ROMAN F.WOLF ERIC W.HOWARD WEI R.CHEN | 2013 | Journal of Innovative Optical Health Sciences2013,6,4: | 0 |
| 20 | A comparative study of the electrical characteristics of positive and negative narrow bipolar events显示文摘Narrow bipolar events(NBEs)are intriguing intra-cloud discharge that have attracted enormous interest in the lightning community.They come with two polarities that dominate at different altitudes in thunderclouds.The sources of negative NBEs are usually located near the top of thunderclouds;those of positive NBEs are at the middle levels.NBEs may occur at the onset of lightning.The electrical properties of NBEs remain poorly understood.We present here the first comparative study of the electrical characteristics of negative and positive NBEs.To derive electrical parameters from the fast electric field change waveforms of 1673 positive NBEs and 364 negative NBEs recorded by the Jianghuai Area Sferic Array(JASA)in China,we use an improved method based on the transmission line model.This approach concludes that negative NBEs occurring at high altitudes tend to produce a narrower current pulse and take a shorter time to traverse the channel than their positive counterparts.Moreover,compared to positive NBEs,a larger portion of negative NBEs are associated with slightly greater peak current moments but smaller overall charge moments.The differences reported herein between electrical properties of negative and positive NBEs suggest that charge distribution in NBE-producing thunderstorms tends to vary systematically with altitude. | FeiFan Liu BaoYou Zhu HeLin Zhou GaoPeng Lu Ming Ma JiuHou Lei | 2023 | Earth and Planetary Physics2023,7,6: | 0 |
