Abstract:By using the self-developed calibration of inner blackbody corrected by lunar emission (CIBLE) results of Fengyun-2 (FY-2) satellite, tropical cyclones (TC) intensity was estimated objectively with Dvorak technology. Several strong and supper strong TCs happened in 2012 summer and autumn were selected, when FY-2 lay in the stages of the smooth variation of calibration and the acutely variation one occurred in satellite eclipse period, respectively. As the comparative datum,both MTSAT satellite calibration and FY-2E cross-calibration result were used for the analysis. The results show that CIBLE method can accurately describe the diurnal and annual variation of FY-2E on-orbit calibration slopes, which is the main contributor to the consistent estimations of TC intensity between CIBLE and MTSAT in each intensity stage. Particularly, during the autumn eclipse period, the diurnal variation of calibration slope greatly improves the accuracy of strong typhoon intensity determination even at night. The maximal error of the wind speed in typhoon center has been reduced by 14m/s, which is believed to be a significant promotion for the TC intensity prediction.
