Parameters of lightning activity in the tropical cyclones at the stage of maximum development in August 2016

. This article discusses the parameters of thunderstorm activity in the structure of tropical cyclones that had an impact on the Russian Far East in August 2016. The study shows in detail the change in the cloud mass and describes its structure during the lifetime of the most powerful tropical cyclone Lionrock (2016). It is shown that the density distribution of lightning discharges in the range of tropical cyclones (up to 1000 km), reaching the typhoon stage, is characterized by two local maxima. The distribution density of lightning discharges in the range of tropical cyclones that have reached a strong tropical storm is characterized by one maximum. The lifetime of thunderstorm cells that stand out is 40-50 minutes in average. Before the typhoon stage, the area of thunderstorm cells increased, and then, the number of cells as well as the intensity of discharges in the cell increased, but their lifetime and area decreased.


Introduction
The economy of any state significantly depends on weather conditions. Extreme sectors, such as floods and hurricanes, have a significant impact on various sectors of the economy. One of the reasons for the occurrence of such dangerous phenomena is tropical cyclones, which are almost always accompanied by powerful thunderstorms. At the same time, meteorological parameters, together with the spatio-temporal characteristics of thunderstorm areas identified in the structure of a tropical cyclone, make it possible to predict the degree of danger of a natural phenomenon.
In August 2016, 5 tropical cyclones, which reached the territory of Russia at the stage of a collapsing cyclone, had the greatest influence on the Far East. Of these, tropical cyclones Lionrock and Mindulle reached the typhoon stage with a wind speed of about 36 m/s. The maximum stage of development of tropical cyclones Omais, Conson and Chanthu is a strong tropical storm.

Research Methods
In the Far Eastern region of the country, data obtained by means of the international global network WWLLN are used to monitor thunderstorm activity [1][2][3]. WWLLN is a system that accurately records the electromagnetic pulse generated by lightning discharges in the kHz-range. In [4], an accuracy assessment showed that the reliability of WWLLN measurement data is higher than the probability of a false diagnosis when comparing with tolerances of 50, 75 and 100 km. Reliability indicators are respectively 0.65, 0.77 and 0.82.
In this paper, we studied thunderstorm regions identified in the structure of a tropical cyclone based on an analysis of data from the WWLLN thunderstorm registration system. One of the receiving points of this scientific network for registering lightning discharges is located in Yakutsk. In [5], it was proposed to transform the data of the lightning location system (WWLLN) into a grid with a node spacing of 8 km. The study analyzes lightning discharges received by the WWLLN registration system in the territory of 10°-35°N, 125°-145°E with a grid node spacing of 2.5 km in August 2016.
For analysis, we used the methods of cluster analysis implemented in the software package. Clustering was carried out similarly to the method presented in [6]. The data from http://agora.ex.nii.ac.jp/digital-typhoon and https://worldview.earthdata.nasa.gov have been also used in this study.

Experimental data and results
The largest in August 2016 was the impact of the tropical cyclone Lionrock. Figure 1 according to https://worldview.earthdata.nasa.gov in the 20°x20° region. According to http://agora.ex.nii.ac.jp/digital-typhoon, it originated on August 16, 2016 with a tropical disturbance center of 26.4°N and 159.1°E ( fig.1.1). An increase in wind speed in the region of tropical disturbance has not been observed yet; it remains small. In the region of disturbance formation, an increase in the amount and thickness of cloudiness occurs, which is accompanied by an increase in convection in the zone of cloud bands.
The transition to the stage of tropical depression occurred on August 21, 2016 ( fig. 1.2). The center is 29.2°N and 133.3°E. At the same time, Typhoon Mindulle, which is in the stage of a tropical storm, is recorded at a wind speed of 25 m/s, its center is to the right with coordinates 28°N and 140.6°E. At the same time, a certain order in the distribution of clouds is found in the cloud massif. It manifests itself in the acquisition of a certain specific form and in the appearance, more often to the west of it, of thin ridges of cumulus clouds. The appearance of cirrus clouds usually serves as a sign of rapid deepening of the emerging tropical cyclone. Cirrus clouds form in the shape of stripes, which, as a rule, break off along the edges of the central cloud vortex, which has now become the main one. Separate spiralshaped strips of clouds depart from the cloud massif [7].
On August 22, 2016, the center of a tropical cyclone in a stage of a tropical storm is 28.2°N and 134°E ( fig. 1.3). The wind speed is about 23 m/s. On August 24, 2016, the center of the tropical cyclone is 25.8°N and 133.3°E ( fig. 1.4). Wind speed is about 36 m/s at the surface. The structure of the cloud system of this tropical cyclone shows that it reaches the maturity stage -the typhoon stage. The image shows a dense, round array of continuous cloudiness, spiral-like clouds of cloudiness depart from it counterclockwise (the image was obtained in the northern hemisphere). Cloud bands are made up of thick cumulonimbus clouds formed into cells. The main cloud massif typhoon Lionrock is homogeneous in its structure.
In [8], 7 typhoons formed from July to November 2012-2013 were considered. It was shown that in all the typhoons under consideration in the central region, on the very day preceding the onset of maximum development, structures were observed that are parts of annular or spiral formations of a mesometeorological scale that can be associated with the presence of a cloudy wall of the typhoon eye. In [8] Sanba, 09/13/2012. Characteristic elements of the typhoon structure were observedspiral bands coinciding with cloudy ones were considered. Ring structures were fully manifested on the day of maximum development, and then began to collapse. It is shown that by the distribution of lightning it is possible to evaluate the position of the center of the typhoon and the speed of its movement, as well as obtain estimates of the geometric characteristics of the eye wall, which are given in storm reports on hurricanes and typhoons. 1). 2).
3). 4). Approaching the center of the cyclone, cloud stripes go under the cover of cirrus clouds. The average width of the stripes is 200-300 km, and in some cases more. Tropical storms most often have two cloud bands: one of them is located in the southwestern part of the tropical cyclone, and the second in the northeast [9].
During the formation of a typhoon (at the stages of a tropical depression and even a tropical storm), points corresponding to lightning discharges are distributed relatively randomly. On the day of maximum development on August 24-25, 2016, spiral bands coinciding with the boundaries of the cloud were also observed in the field of the  Figure 2 shows the lightning fields in the typhoon Lionrock on August 25, 2016, the red line shows the movement of the center of the tropical cyclone for the entire period of its existence. Above the seas and oceans, there is no influence of orography. The spatiotemporal distribution of lightning discharges in thunderclouds is controlled by thermodynamic (1000 km scale) and mesometeorological (10-200 km) structures [10]. To select the area for analysis, the size of the typhoon area should be considered. In [11], registration was carried out within a radius of 500 km.
According to the results of these studies, the distribution density of lightning discharges in the range of tropical cyclones (up to 1000 km) that have reached the typhoon stage is characterized by two local maxima. The distribution density of lightning discharges in the range of tropical cyclones that have reached a strong tropical storm is characterized by one maximum.
In the spatial distribution of the density of lightning discharges in a separate cell of the Lionrock typhoon, the maximum is observed in the inner part of the spiral bands up to 100 km from the center of the typhoon, the minimum in the inner strip in a radius of 100-250 km and the secondary maximum in the outer bands from 260 to 1000 km, as in [12].
A more detailed study of the cloud structures of tropical cyclones in the typhoon stage using the clustering of lightning discharges revealed that cloudiness has a cellular structure and the lifetime of the selected cells is 41 minutes in average. This time coincides with the median (41 min), with a mode equal to 50 min. The average cell area reaches maximum values at the typhoon stage.
The analysis of the shape of the cells showed that the maximum eccentricity of the ellipse describing the shape of the cell, up to 0.8, corresponds to the maximum wind value of 43 m/s, and is observed in short-lived cells of a thundercloud within the radius of action of tropical cyclones. At the stage of a tropical storm, the area of each cell monotonously increased taking into account the diurnal course of the density of lightning discharge flux, and then, when entering the typhoon stage, the number of cells increased, the intensity of lightning discharges in each cell increased, and their lifetime and area decreased.

Conclusion
As a result of this work, the possibility of using the WWLLN world lightning location registration system to study the spatio-temporal characteristics of thunderstorm activity accompanying tropical cyclones in August 2016 was shown. This study made it possible to track and describe the change in the cloud massif, as well as to identify variations in the parameters of thunderstorm activity during vortex phenomena in the atmosphere.
