砧状云

这项综合了12所大学和气象机构的9位气象研究员的成果的研究基于2012年美国宇航局DC-8风暴追逐机开展的一项空中飞行实验。这架飞机用于查看雷暴云顶层的砧状云。

The study , which included contributions from nine atmospheric7 researchers across a dozen universities and meteorological agencies , was based on an airborne research flight conducted by a NASA DC-8 storm-chasing plane in 2012 .

从模型模拟图像和实际卫星图像上都能清晰的看到被抬升的暖空气所形成的独特的砧状云。

The rising , warm air forms distinctive anvil-shaped clouds , visible in both the satellite and model image .
