Numerical simulation research on the overturning of gantry crane by downbursts [PDF]
Based on the simulation of the fluid-structure interaction response, the cause of an overturning of a gantry crane induced by a downburst in Shenzhen is studied in this paper.

A Random Forest Method to Forecast Downbursts Based on Dual-Polarization Radar Signatures
The United States Air Force’s 45th Weather Squadron provides wind warnings, including those for downbursts, at the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station and Kennedy Space Center (CCAFS/KSC).

CLIMATHUNDERR: experimental database of buoyancy-driven downbursts [PDF]
Thunderstorm downbursts are windstorms due to intense negatively-buoyant flows produced beneath cumulonimbus clouds. Their study has recently attracted significant scientific and media attention due to the current and projected impacts of climate change.

A Retrospective Satellite Analysis of the June 2012 North American Derecho
The North American Derecho of 29–30 June 2012 exhibits many classic progressive and serial derecho features. It remains one of the highest-impact derecho-producing convective systems (DCS) over CONUS since 2000.
