Aiming at the precipitation process during the “Mekkhala” tropical storm and typhoon, the precipitation structure characteristics were analyzed using the precipitation data retrieved from polar orbiting satellites. The results show that: in the life process of “Mekkhala”, its cloud system always presents an asymmetric structure, and the cloud area and cloud top height on the north and south sides also change constantly. When the intensity of “Mekkhala” reaches the maximum, its minimum brightness temperature range is also the largest, and the spiral structure is also the most obvious;during the precipitation process of the “Mekkhala” tropical storm and typhoon, the near-surface precipitation rate is roughly distributed in a ring shape, from the precipitation rate of the FY3-D polar-orbiting satellite and the GCOM-W1 satellite. In terms of product comparison, the precipitation rate product of the GCOM-W1 satellite responds better to low-level precipitation.展开更多
