According to the characteristics of organized cumulus convective precipitation in China,a cumulus parameterization scheme suitable for describing the organized convective precipitation in East Asia is presented and modified.The Kain-Fristch scheme is chosen as the scheme to be modified based on analyses and comparisons of simulated precipitation in East Asia by several commonly-used mesoscale parameterization schemes.A key dynamic parameter to dynamically control the cumulus parameterization is then proposed to improve the Kain-Fristch scheme.Numerical simulations of a typhoon case and a Mei-yu front rainfall case are carried out with the improved scheme,and the results show that the improved version performs better than the original in simulating the track and intensity of the typhoons,as well as the distribution of Mei-yu front precipitation.

A key dynamic parameter to dynamically control the cumulus parameterization is then proposed to improve the Kain-Fristch scheme. Numerical simulations of a typhoon case and a Mei-yu front rainfall case are carded out with the improved scheme, and the results show that the improved version performs better than the original in simulating the track and intensity of the typhoons, as well as the distribution of Mei-yu front precipitation.
