Influence of Underlying Surface on Distribution of Hourly Heavy Rainfall over the Middle Yangtze River Valley by Yinglian Guo, Jisong Sun, Guirong Xu, Zhiming Zhou, Jizhu Wang

“…The high-frequency HHR period of sunrise occurs when the supergeostrophic effect is weakened, the low-level vorticity and frontal forcing are strengthened, and the water vapor flux convergence begins to weaken. Secondly, the high-frequency HHR period of the sunset is caused by stronger local uplift and more unstable atmospheric stratification, but the enhanced local uplift is caused by the coupling of the terrain forcing of the underlying surface and the enhanced northern subgeostrophic flow, which causes the HHR to start closer to the mountain top at sunset than at sunrise.…”
