Windshearreflectsthatthewindfieldisnotuniform,whichisoneoftheprimaryfactorswhichmaketheretrievalofthewindfielddifficult.Basedonvolumevelocityprocess(VVP)windfieldretrievaltechnique,theintensityofwindshearisidentifiedinthispaper.Afteranalyzingthetraditionaltechniquesthatrelyonthedifferenceofradialvelocitytoidentifywindshear,afixeddifferenceamongradialvelocitiesthatmaycausefalseidentificationinauniformwindfieldwasfound.Becauseofthenon-uniformityinwindshearareas,thedifferenceofretrievedresultsbetweensurroundinganalysisvolumescanbeusedasameasurementtoshowhowstrongthewindshearis.AccordingtotheanalysisofasevereconvectiveweatherprocessthatoccurredinGuangzhou,itcanbefoundthattheareasofwindshearappearedwiththestrengthsignificantlylargerthaninotherregionsandthemagnitudegenerallylargerthan4.5m/(s·km).Besides,bycomparingthevariationofwindshearstrengthduringtheconvection,itcanbefoundthatnewcellswillbemorelikelytogeneratewhenthestrengthisabove3.0m/(s·km).Therefore,theanalysisofstrongwindshear'smovementanddevelopmentishelpfultoforecastingsevereconvections.
