摘　　要：利用多普勒雷达资料,结合探空、闪电资料对2005年夏季北京地区的20个单体过程进行综合分析,结果表明:40 dBz是比较适合该地区雷电预警的一个雷达回波特征参量;在此基础之上,将0℃层结高度作为基础特征高度,并结合-10℃层结高度和强回波所占比例对孤立单体的雷电发生进行综合预警是一种较为接近实际应用的方法。根据以上分析,该文针对孤立单体能否发生闪电、以及闪电发生的起始时间给出了一个初步的预报方法,并利用22个孤立单体进行了检验。检验结果证明:该方法在对单体是否会发展为雷暴单体,以及雷暴单体中初次闪电发生时段的预报方面效果较好。同时还发现,雷暴单体中从25 dBz回波出现到单体的35 dBz回波厚度变化率达到极值的时间差,与雷暴中最早的云闪与最早的地闪之间的时间差,两者存在一定的线性关系。这为进一步预测地闪的发生提供了一个参考依据。The radar data, the sounding data and the lightning location data of 20 isolated cells in Beijing from July to August in 2005 are analyzed. Considering the analysis and the overseas studies, it is concluded that 40 dBz is an appropriate predictor for the regional lightning warning, because the difference of 40 dBz echo top between thunderstorms and non-thunderstorms is maximal among various echoes. The application of this predictor is not as simple as other research results. According to the analysis on the evolution of various echoes, it is considered that the threshold of 40 dBz echo top height should be located at the 0℃ stratification level. In the meantime, whether 40 dBz echo top height reaches the - 10℃ stratification level, the proportion of some kinds of echo should be taken into account. The forecast accuracy will be improved markedly when the factors mentioned before are taken into consideration. Based on the above studies, a forecast process of lightning is given. First, it is checked that whether the 0 ℃ stratification level is reached by the 40 dBz echo top height or not. If it is affirmative, the cell will have the great potential of becoming a thunderstorm. If not, the cell will be concluded to be a non-thunderstorm. Then,checking whether the - 10 ℃ stratification level is reached by the 40 dBz echo top height will be necessary to judge the thunderstorm further. If that height is reached, the first lighting in the cell will occur in 15 minutes. If not, the P value should be used for subsidiary discrimination. If the P value exceeds 5 % and keeps above this level for a period of time, the first lightning will also occur in 15 minutes. A prediction test for this method is carried out using the data of the other 22 isolated cells in Beijing in the same period. The test result shows that the method is effective in judging whether a normal cell will become a non-thunderstorm cell or not and predicting the time of the first lightning in a thunderstorm. In addition, a linear relationship is fou
