Abstract:The up-to-date research progress of very strong sandstorms was summarized in this study, including the characteristics and evolution mechanism of very strong sandstorms. Issues for further research have been also put forward. The very strong sandstorms showed a seasonal variation and appeared more often in spring, usually occurring from afternoon to evening suddenly and locally, with short duration. The triggering of very strong sandstorms is due to the coincidence of the upper weak air mass with certain vorticity and the developed convective bubbles in the near-surface unstable mixing layer, resulting in the onset of swirling bubbles from the common convective bubbles. The sand and dust are lifted due to the entrainment of swirling bubbles. The front of a very strong sandstorm would move slowly and finally disappeared quickly with the occurrence of secondary vortices in swirling bubbles. The occurrence of secondary vortices in swirling bubbles played a role in speeding up the energy dissipation of a very strong sandstorm. To further understand the characteristics of the wind-sand two-phase flow and the mechanism of energy dissipation of very strong sandstorms, and further improve the accuracy of sandstorm forecast, there is a need to strengthen the accumulation of meteorological observation data and the multi-scale numerical simulation of very strong sandstorms.
