Hail: Mechanisms, Monitoring, Forecasting, Damages, Financial Compensation Systems, and Prevention
Atmosphere, 2023 Hail has long caused extensive damage and economic loss in places inhabited by humans. Climate change is expected to lead to different types of damage due to the geographic characteristics of each continent.

Future changes in severe hail across Europe, including regional emergence of warm-type thunderstorms [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsHail is a major threat to agriculture, properties, and people, yet little is known about changes to hail with anthropogenic warming. Here, we use pan-European convection-permitting simulations, and a contemporary hail proxy benefiting from simulated ...

Global estimates of damaging hail hazard
Weather and Climate Extremes, 2018 A single hailstorm can cause losses in the billion-dollar range if it occurs over a densely populated area. Property losses from hailstorms are rising with time mainly due to a combination of increases in population density and wealth.

Multi-day hail clusters and isolated hail days in Switzerland – large-scale flow conditions and precursors [PDF]
Weather and Climate Dynamics, 2021 In Switzerland, hail regularly occurs in multi-day hail clusters. The atmospheric conditions prior to and during multi-day hail clusters are described and contrasted to the conditions prior to and during isolated hail days.

Research on Hail Mechanism Features Based on Dual-Polarization Radar Data
Atmosphere, 2023 Hail is a type of severe convective weather disaster characterized by abundant water vapor and strong updrafts, resulting in intense and high reflectivity echoes in hail clouds, often accompanied by an overhanging form.
