Abstract A new high‐spatial resolution camera on the International Space Station used OH nightglow in the H‐band to image the ground at an ∼ ${\sim} $70 m pixel footprint over an ∼ ${\sim} $280 km swath and maintained this resolution during its 1.5 s exposure.

New interpretations targeting European atmospheric circulation patterns and their association with climate-related hazard events in Romania. [PDF]
Atmospheric circulation exerts a dominant influence on the occurrence, intensity, and spatial distribution of climate-related hazards in Romania. This study investigates the relationship between major European synoptic-scale circulation patterns, such as

Landspout across Novi Beograd, 24 may 2012: Synoptic analysis [PDF]
In this study we have analysed a case of the landspout across Novi Beograd on 24 May 2012. We have used a synoptic analysis method in the research and the description of the landspout event is based on visual evidence and photographs.

Comprehensive analysis of two downburst-related aircraft accidents [PDF]
Although downbursts have been identified as the major cause of a number of aircraft takeoff and landing accidents, only the 1985 Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW) and the more recent (July 1994) Charlotte, North Carolina, landing accidents provided sufficient onboard recorded data to perform a comprehensive analysis of the downburst phenomenon. The first step in

Effects of the urban land use on a severe convective windstorm
Numerical simulations with the Weather Research and Forecasting model coupled with the Building Effect Parametrization–Building Energy Model multilayer canopy model were conducted to investigate the impact of urban land use on a severe convective windstorm in Milan, northern Italy, on July 25, 2023.

A study of the 23 October 2022 southern England damaging MCS
During the afternoon of 23 October 2022, a mesoscale convective system (MCS) developed and intensified over the English Channel and tracked north‐northeastward into southern England, producing widespread damaging winds and at least three moderate to strong tornadoes in Hampshire.

Application of the teaching–learning-based optimization algorithm to an analytical model of thunderstorm outflows to analyze the variability of the downburst kinematic and geometric parameters [PDF]
Downbursts winds, characterized by strong, localized downdrafts and subsequent horizontal straight-line winds, present a significant risk to civil structures.

Wind Loads on Transmission Line Structures in Simulated Downbursts [PDF]
Downbursts pose a recognized threat to transmission line networks in South-east Queensland, and many other regions around the world. However, when assessing the structural adequacy of transmission line structures, design codes assume that an atmospheric ...

Perturbation methods in evolutionary spectral analysis for linear dynamics and equivalent statistical linearization [PDF]
The analysis of large-scale structures subject to transient random loads, coherent in space and time, is a classic problem encountered in earthquake and wind engineering.

Abstract Monin‐Obukhov similarity theory (MOST) is widely used in numerical weather prediction to model surface fluxes of momentum, heat, and water vapor. However, MOST is based on assumptions of steady state and horizontally homogeneous turbulence that can lead to prediction errors in and around convective storms.
