Numerical experiment on development of monsoon depression over the South China Sea in early summer
初夏南海季风低压发展的数值试验

This paper gives a successful numerical prediction (24h and 48h ) for the development process of monsoon depression over the South China Sea . A series of numerical experiments has been done . The results show that the influence of topography is little. But other experiments including reducing moisture, cancelling cumulus convection process and weakening the southwesterlies to the south of the depression produce a decaying result of the depression . It is also found that the development of depression is basically driven by the cumulus convection process.
