8 Reproducible criteria of multiple eyes? There aren t objective(numerical) evaluation method or common indicator between researchers. Therefore, we think the following 2 criteria. We don t decide by shape of precipitation distribution of the short time. We judge by shape of updrafts or water substances(qc+qr+qi+qs+qg) between 1km and 5km AGL, and if ring shape of updrafts or water substances keeps about 6 hours, we define as eyewall structure. E h t f i h i l it t ff f th h t ti if i Even when a part of ring changes spiral or it cuts off for the short time, if ring shape of updrafts or water substances keeps overall between 1km and 5km AGL, we define as eyewall structure.
9 Precipitation 1hr(prec1) Water substance(tw=lw+iw) Updraft(w) FT=03 Radar P01 P02 P03 P04 P05 Surf Surface(Nago) and Radar observation Radius of eyewall; About 10km, About 50km, About 120km Z*=3.72km 1km Ensemble forecast Inner eyewall weak About 10km Middle eyewall strong About 50km Outer eyewall moderate About 120km CNTL M01 M02 M03 M04 M05 Z*=3.87km Surf Z*=3.72km Z*=3.87km
10 Analysis method of triple eyewall ~Estimation of center position~ Braun s method 2002 CP_m; Position decided by minimum surface pressure(psea_m) CP_b; Position decided by Braun s method At fixed time Center position of ring (Geometric center) At fixed time CP_m CP_m CP_b CP_b Width; 1km CP_m CP_b Sr; Standard deviation(psea) in ring of radius r and width 1km 1Calculation l lti of Spat neighborhood ihb h position 2CP_b decided by position of minimum value of Sp t3 t1 t4 t5 t2 t6 Ring's oscillation occurs for each forecast time t1~t6 Ring is fixed for each forecast time. Consistency with temperature and wind Results depend on the determining method of the center position, therefore we decided optimum position from Braun s method 2002.
11 Analysis results of triple eyewall ~Estimation of center position~ Comparison of CP_m and CP_b for FT=01~06 (11member) Comparison of Psea_m and Psea_b for FT=01~06 (11member) 920.0hPa 920.0hPa 925.0hPa Different about maximum 6km between CP_m and CP_b Radius of inner eyewall is about 10km. So, if we don t correct center position by Braun s method 2002, we can t get accurate analysis results.
