Abstract:
the vortexes such as Southwest Vortex (SWV) and Plateau Vortex (PV) on Tibetan Plateau (TP) and the area nearby are the systems which cause catastrophic heavy rainfall in China, remain an important research field in plateau meteorology. Focused on vortex systems related to the plateau, the current findings on the structure characteristics and the evolution mechanisms of SWV and PV are summarized, and the progresses achieved in the related fields are discussed; besides, some questions which remain to further research are proposed.
