陆龙卷

陆龙卷是大气科学家霍华德·B·布鲁斯坦（英语：Howard B. Bluestein）在1985年为一种与中气旋（英语：Mesocyclone）无关的龙卷风所创建的术语。^[1]《气象学术语表》将陆龙卷定义为：

口语化表述龙卷风是在其成长阶段的母云以及起源于边界层的涡度。

母云不包含预先存在的中级中气旋。陆龙卷之所以如此命名，是因为它看起来像“陆地上空的佛罗里达群岛水龙卷。”^[2]

特征

陆龙卷是一种龙卷风，在浓积云的生长阶段形成，通过向上伸展大气边界层涡量并进入浓积云的上升气流。它们通常比超级单体龙卷风更小、更弱，并且不是由中气旋或云中预先存在的旋转形成的。正因为如此，多普勒天气雷达很少检测到陆龙卷。^[3]

陆龙卷与水龙卷有很强的相似性和发展过程，通常采用半透明和高度层流螺旋管的形式。"它们通常是狭窄的、绳状的冷凝漏斗，在雷暴云仍在生长并且没有旋转上升气流时形成"，根据国家气象局。^[4]陆龙卷被认为是龙卷风，因为快速旋转的空气柱同时与地表和积云接触。并非所有的陆龙卷都是可见的，而且许多是最初在地表旋转的碎片，然后最终被冷凝和灰尘填满的。

生命周期

形成于中气旋（英语：Mesocyclone）和上升气流之下，一个陆龙卷通常持续不到15分钟，然而它们可以持续更长时间，并造成严重损害。它们通过可识别的形成、成熟和消散阶段进行，并在附近发生下沉气流或显著降水时趋于衰减。它们可能以线状或成组的形式形成多个陆港。 ^[5]

损害

陆龙卷通常很弱，然而在极少数情况下，陆龙卷风可能与EF3藤田级数龙卷风一样强大。^[5]^[6]
