[0024] In the embodiments of the present application, in order to deeply study the evolution law of YGQF at different time scales and its mechanism, establish an objective prediction method and system, and improve the prediction accuracy, the "1 station 2 network" includes: the Melle YGQF core test base and data processing center, the local terrain influence observation network constructed on the main path of cold air activity, and the joint observation network in the east of Yunnan. The Melle scientific test base has been built into a comprehensive meteorological station integrating observation test, business scientific research and meteorological popularization, and was approved by the joint document of Yunnan Meteorological Bureau and the Institute of Atmospheric Sciences in April 2023. The base is built according to the standard of national benchmark meteorological station, and new detection equipment such as microwave radiometer, millimeter wave cloud radar, wind profile radar and meteorological multi-element long-haul unmanned aerial vehicle is added according to the requirements of long-term observation, as well as large-scale evaporation, radiation, soil moisture, atmospheric electric field and other observation projects. In addition, the mountain valley gradient observation system( Figure 2 ) and the mountain profile observation system( Figure 3 ) located in the east of Melle have also been completed, which can monitor the changes of various meteorological elements with high temporal and spatial resolution when the cold air and YGQF advance and retreat in the typical local terrain area. At present, more than 4200 ground conventional meteorological observation stations with an average spacing of 9.5 kilometers, 5 sounding stations, 12 C-band weather radars, 16 X-band weather radars and 1 S-band weather radar( Figure 4 ) have been built, and the yellow represents C-band radar, the green represents S-band radar, and the blue represents X-band dual-polarization radar, and the multi-band dual-polarization weather radar network of the whole province has been realized.

[0025] In the embodiments of the present application, the YGQF cooperative observation includes: after data quality control and arrangement, the data set of ground conventional meteorological observation, new vertical observation, mountain valley gradient observation, mountain profile observation, aircraft onboard equipment and weather radar cooperative observation is formed. High temporal and spatial resolution and fine meteorological observation data in the process of frontogenesis and frontolysis and advance and retreat are obtained.

[0026] In the embodiments of the present application, the long sequence of YGQF position and intensity data includes: the longitude and latitude of each time front line grid point and the potential temperature gradient in 1 latitude distance, the daily average temperature, the daily maximum temperature and the daily minimum temperature of the matching front line grid point position (positive sample) and the 2 latitude points on the east and west sides of the grid point (negative sample).

[0027] YGQF is located below 700 hPa and is a shallow circulation system with significant multi-time scale variation characteristics. In the embodiments of the present application, the characteristic parameters include: weather background, terrain, underlying surface, obvious diurnal variation, intraseasonal variation and interannual variation characteristics.

[0028] In the embodiments of the present application, the terrain parameters include the birth and death of the front, the terrain, the ground pressure, the low-altitude wind field, the intensity of the cold and warm air masses on both sides of the front, the ground radiation and the cloud amount.

[0029] With the advent of the era of large models, the popularity of the Transformer architecture underlying large models has exceeded that of CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) and RNN (Recurrent Neural Network). The Transformer architecture discards traditional CNN and RNN neural networks. In the embodiments of the present application, the Transformer architecture includes an attention mechanism (Attention Mechanism) and a feedforward neural network. The attention mechanism (Attention Mechanism) calculates the overall correlation of T and the feature quantity sequence through an inner product, and the formula is as follows:

[0030] The attention mechanism (Attention Mechanism) calculates the spatio-temporal correlation of T and the feature quantity through an outer product, and the formula is as follows:

[0031] T is a spatio-temporal sequence of air temperature, and Δp is a sequence of feature quantities. One inner product and outer product result obtains one attention, and multiple inner product and outer product results obtain multiple attentions, i.e., a multi-head attention mechanism (Multi-head attention). The attention mechanism (Attention Mechanism) improves the efficiency and accuracy of the model by calculating a set of importance weights to allocate limited computing resources to more important information.

[0032] In the embodiments of the present application, the multi-head attention mechanism (Multi-head attention) calculates the correlation of the feature parameters in the YGQF full data set and the T sequence, and obtains the air temperature intelligent prediction model (Y) through a Transformer full connection feedforward neural network. Figure 5 ) through training.

[0033] The specific steps of the present application are as follows: Step S1: Construct a collaborative observation data set. The observation system of '1 station 2 networks' is formed by the YGQF core test base and data processing center, the local terrain influence observation network constructed along the main path of cold air activity, and the joint observation network in the east of Yunnan. Through the observation system, the YGQF coordinated observation is carried out, which specifically includes collecting conventional meteorological data such as temperature, humidity, air pressure, and wind speed by ground conventional meteorological observation instruments; obtaining vertical distribution data of meteorological elements at different heights by using new vertical observation equipment; collecting meteorological data at different altitudes by setting gradient observation stations in valley areas, forming mountain valley gradient observation data; obtaining meteorological information at different positions along the mountain profile, forming mountain profile observation data; at the same time, air observation is carried out by using airborne equipment, and combined with weather radar data, multi-dimensional and multi-device coordinated observation is realized. All observation data are strictly quality controlled, and abnormal values and missing values are removed and filled, and after arrangement, the coordinated observation data set is formed.

[0034] Step S2: Constructing YGQF label data set; Based on the coordinated observation data set obtained in step S1, the long sequence YGQF position and intensity data are calculated. For each time, the longitude and latitude of the frontal grid point are determined, and the potential temperature gradient in 1 latitude-longitude distance is calculated. The frontal grid point position is selected as the positive sample, and the grid points within 2 latitudes on both sides are selected as the negative sample. The daily average temperature, daily maximum temperature and daily minimum temperature of these samples are matched to construct the YGQF label data set.

[0035] Step S3: Constructing YGQF full-amount data set; Collect feature parameters such as weather background (such as atmospheric circulation situation), terrain (such as mountain direction, altitude, etc.), underlying surface (such as vegetation type, soil property, etc.), obvious daily variation, intraseasonal variation and interannual variation characteristics, etc. At the same time, collect the relationship between the birth, death, advance and retreat of the front and the terrain, ground pressure, low-level wind field data, the intensity of cold and warm air masses on both sides of the front, ground radiation and cloud amount, etc. The above feature parameters and terrain parameters are matched with the YGQF label data set constructed in step S2 to ensure that each label corresponds to the corresponding feature and terrain information, forming the YGQF full-amount data set.

[0036] Step S4: Developing an intelligent air temperature prediction model based on AI technology; Using the YGQF full data set obtained in step S3, a model is developed based on the Transformer architecture. Set T as the spatiotemporal sequence of air temperature, and Δp as the characteristic quantity sequence. A plurality of attentions are obtained by calculating the inner product and the outer product to form a multi-head attention mechanism. The correlation between the characteristic parameters in the full data set and the T sequence is calculated using the multi-head attention mechanism. The results are input into the Transformer fully connected feedforward neural network. Appropriate training parameters (such as learning rate, number of iterations, etc.) are set, and the model is trained to obtain an air temperature intelligent prediction model.

[0037] Step S5: Building an air temperature prediction module based on AI technology; Based on the air temperature intelligent prediction model developed in step S4, an air temperature prediction module based on AI technology is built. This module can receive input data and output corresponding air temperature prediction results.

[0038] Step S6: Accessing a test platform for trial use; The air temperature prediction module built in step S5 is connected to the meteorological test platform for trial use in the actual application environment. The prediction results and actual observation data during the trial use are collected to evaluate and optimize the performance of the module, continuously improving its prediction accuracy and stability.

[0039] In the description of the present specification, specific features, structures, materials or characteristics can be combined in any one or more embodiments or examples in a suitable manner.

[0040] The above is only a specific implementation of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily think of changes or replacements within the technical scope disclosed by the present application, which should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
