Why did the weather probe plane go to the typhoon center?

This is because the meteorological sounding plane can fly to the typhoon center where meteorologists can't reach to collect conventional meteorological elements such as temperature, air pressure, humidity and wind, and collect various physical parameters of clouds, fog and precipitation (condensation nucleus, cloud raindrop spectrum, hail spectrum, ice nucleus, water content, electric field in clouds, charge and so on). ); Using airborne weather radar and meteorological Doppler radar to detect cumulonimbus clouds, rainfall, wind and turbulence within hundreds of kilometers around the typhoon center; Use infrared radiometer to detect the temperature of the ground, sea surface and clouds, use microwave radiometer to observe the water content above the plane, and use camera to photograph the weather around the typhoon center of the route; The vertical distribution of atmospheric temperature, air pressure, humidity and wind below the flight altitude is detected by dropping radiosondes from the plane, and the seawater temperature is measured by dropping a water temperature profiler hundreds of meters deep. Meteorological aircraft detection has been highly automated.
