Thunderstorm downbursts have been reported to cause damage or failure to wind turbine arrays. We extend a large-eddy simulation model used in previous work to generate downburst-related inflow fields with a view toward defining correlated wind fields ...

Oklahoma Downbursts and Their Asymmetry
Abstract Doppler radar data collected each spring in 1979–1984 with the two Doppler radars operated by the National Severe Storms Laboratory (NSSL) are used to investigate the asymmetry of low-altitude divergent outflows of convective storm downbursts in central Oklahoma.

Design Spectra for Evaluating the Dynamic Response of Buildings Under Thunderstorm Downbursts
This paper presents a spectral method to determine the effect of thunderstorm downbursts on structures. The method integrates the dynamic response of single oscillators subject to input accelerations induced by wind, based on classical earthquake ...

Three‐Dimensional Lightning Characteristics of Severe Convective Weather in Shanghai
Using 2022–2024 ADTD data, this study analyzes 3D lightning in Shanghai's severe convection. Activity peaks in August and afternoon hours, varies by weather type, and concentrates spatially in Pudong and Chongming. Results provide key references for selecting lightning indicators in forecasting and warning systems. ABSTRACT Using ADTD three‐dimensional

Abstract Microphysical characteristics of warm‐rain precipitation that occurred in Fuzhou region during warm seasons of 2022 and 2023 have been investigated by using polarimetric radar data. Results of a modified warm‐rain identification algorithm indicate positive ZDR variation in the liquid layer should be added as a criterion to prevent events ...
