Lightning electromagnetic emission location using arrival time differencing (LEELA): An introduction to the Met Office's next generation Very Low Frequency lightning location system

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This paper describes the Met Office's new lightning location system LEELA. A brief overview of the upgraded hardware and geolocation algorithms is given. LEELA has improved lightning detection capabilities, especially at night. When comparing LEELA to the previous ATDnet system against ground truths LEELA has 100% storm detection efficiency within 5 km

A new scale‐selective measure of curvature for meteorological fields

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We introduce a novel diagnostic called curvature using radial variation (CURV) that quantifies the local cyclonic or anticyclonic curvature of mean‐sea‐level pressure or geopotential height gridded fields over selected scales. A depiction of how CURV values relate to differing cyclonic curvature is shown in the figure.

A transfer learning framework for the real-time detection of atmospheric gravity waves from All-Sky Airglow Imager

Earth and Planetary Physics
Atmospheric gravity waves (AGWs) observed by the All-Sky Airglow Imager (ASAI) require accurate identification for the study of atmospheric coupling mechanisms and space weather prediction.

Subseasonal forecasts of the MJO and convectively coupled equatorial waves in ACCESS‐S2 and GraphCast: A multi‐year analysis

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
ACCESS‐S2 performs better in predicting longer time‐scale and slower moving waves (MJO and equatorial Rossby waves), while GraphCast performs better in predicting shorter and faster moving waves (Kelvin and mixed Rossby–gravity waves). However, both models systematically underestimate precipitation amplitude across all wave types, especially over the ...

Multiscale controls on diurnal convection in the Maritime Continent: Insights from high‐resolution observations in Timika

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Across the Maritime Continent, diurnal rainfall variability is governed by interactions between regional‐scale atmospheric drivers and local land–sea breeze circulations. Afternoon convection is initiated over land by surface heating and propagates offshore, whereas morning rainfall develops over adjacent seas and moves inland under low‐level northerly

Object‐based deep learning for probabilistic convective‐core nowcasting from satellite data

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Convective cores detected from Meteosat infrared imagery are represented as compact physical objects to generate probabilistic nowcasts up to 6 h ahead. A spatio‐temporal transformer models interactions among evolving core populations and produces gridded probability forecasts across the western Sahel.

Coupled diabatic and frictional forcing of single‐layer vortical flow

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
A single‐layer balanced model is used to illustrate how diabatic and frictional forcing of a primary balanced vortical flow can be coupled self‐consistently, including the advection of potential vorticity by the induced transverse circulation. The coupling is illustrated in the context of a developing tropical cyclone, in which boundary‐layer dynamics ...
