中文摘要：

Severe typhoon Damrey moved across Hainan Island from 00:00 UTC 25 September to 00:00 UTC 27 September in 2005 and gave rise to a significant rain process during its 48-h passage.The precipitation intensity on the southern part of the island is stronger than that on the northern,showing obvious asymmetric distribution.Using Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission(TRMM) data,the associated mesoscale characteristics of the precipitation were analyzed and the formation of asymmetric rainfall distribution was investigated in the context of a subsynoptic scale disturbance,vertical wind shear and orographic factors.The results are shown as follows.(1) The subsynoptic scale system provided favorable dynamic conditions to the genesis of mesoscale rain clusters and rainbands.(2) The southern Hainan Island was located to the left of the leeward direction of downshear all the time,being favorable to the development of convection and leading to the asymmetric rainfall distribution.(3) Mountain terrain in the southern Hainan Island stimulated the genesis,combination and development of convective cells,promoting the formation of mesoscale precipitation systems and ultimately resulting in rainfall increase in the southern island.
