Abstract:
Based on WRF model outputs, one airplane turbulence accident happening on July 6, 2007 was analyzed. The results show that the accident took place in the gravity wave around a cyclone. The alternation of the ascending and descending flows between spiral clouds led to the airplane turbulence. Indices Ri and EI have a good instruction to the occurrence of airplane turbulence.
