Abstract:Mobile meteorological stations play an important role in the emergency support of sudden meteorological disasters, which often park around tall buildings or in unoccupied areas in severe weather, so they are easy to become the main object of lightning. Considering that a mobile meteorological station generally consists of two parts (communication unit and vehicleborne radar) with a relatively fixed parking position, the lightning protection approach of multilevel fortification and comprehensive management for a mobile meteorological station is presented, based on the existing lightning protection standards of metrological and communication industries, and some specific suggestions about the installation and construction of lightning protection facilities are discussed in detail, which are useful to the lightning protection of mobile meteorological stations.
