Based on the FY-2 D/E satellite and thunderstorm data in summer from 2010 to 2014,the satellite image characteristics of newborn thunderstorms and their formation mechanisms in the Eastern Qinghai-Xizang Plateau are analyzed. The results show that the satellite image characteristics of thunderstorms have obvious features,and the cloud top,which has a high correlation with altitude,is below the tropopause.In general,the TBB of the IR channel(IR1)often ranges from-55℃to-10℃,and the TBB of the vapor channel(IR3)has a high frequency from-50℃to-30℃.The TBB difference between IR2(TBB of the split-window channel)and IR1 has a high frequency around-3.3 ℃,and the TBB difference between IR3 and IR1,which is greater than 0 ℃,reaches 83%.In addition,the differences between the surface and air temperature often appear from 5 ℃ to 15 ℃,while the surface temperature is basically from 25 ℃ to 30 ℃ and the relative humidity between 40% to 55% and 30% to50%in regionsⅠand Ⅱ.But the differences between the surface and air temperature often range from 5℃to 10 ℃,and the surface temperature is concentrated mainly from 30 ℃to 35 ℃in theⅢregion.The differences between the surface and air temperature,surface temperature,and relative humidity conditions are reasonable and can be good indicators of newborn thunderstorms in the eastern Qinghai-Xizang Plateau.
