A new four-stage approach based on normalized vegetation indices for detecting and mapping sugarcane hail damage using multispectral remotely sensed data

open access: yesGeocarto International, 2023
Hailstorms have increased in frequency and intensity over the past decade causing substantial losses in agriculture. Since hailstorms often hit a wide area with no detectable pattern, relying on traditional field-based methods to assess crop damage is ...

Review of Impact Factors of the Velocity of Large Hailstones for Laboratory Hail Impact Testing Consideration

open access: yesGeosciences, 2020
The terminal velocity of hailstones is an essential quantity in hail research. It is an important value for the kinetic energy of hailstones and has to be carefully considered when laboratory hail impact testing is being planned.

The Hailstorm in Liverpool [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1889
Sunday, June 2.— A very sultry afternoon, with heavy thunder-clouds in the south-west and west, and continual rumblings from the same direction, the storm evidently passing over the Dingle and Toxteth Park. Soon after 3.30 p.m. lightning became visible and the storm broke.

The Observation of Hailstorms [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1881
IN the most casual survey of the literature relating to the phenomenon of hail one cannot fail to be struck with the remarkable contradictions which everywhere make themselves apparent. Some writers say that hail falls oftenest in the tropics; others assert that it is altogether unknown there!

The Theory of Hailstorms [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1879
WOULD you kindly allow me the space in the columns of your valuable journal to make a few remarks on this subject? Before proceeding, I would like to mention three results of observations on hailstorms in general. It has been observed (1) that they move over the country in sharply-defined bands; (2) that these long bands have their origin or source in ...

Hail‐induced mortality of Asian Openbill (Anastomus oscitans) in Southern Tropical China

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2022
Hailstorms has been reported to cause mortality of mammals or birds around the world, but the effect of hailstorms on tropical avian species has seldomly been documented.

Hailstorm in Dorsetshire [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1880
AT about 1.30 on the 25th of last November, with a strong wind from the south-west, this place was visited by a hailstorm which lasted about live minutes, accompanied by rain and violent gusts of wind, and by a single vivid flash of lightning which was followed with scarcely more than an appreciable interval by the thunder.

An object-based and Lagrangian view on an intense hailstorm day in Switzerland as represented in COSMO-1E ensemble hindcast simulations [PDF]

open access: yesWeather and Climate Dynamics
On 28 June 2021, Switzerland experienced the passage of several formidable hailstorms navigating its complex terrain. They unleashed severe hailstones measuring up to 9 cm in diameter.
