It is well realized that the phased array radar provides fine information for meso-scale weather system, e.g., tornados. The detecting capability of Guangzhou X-band polarimetric phased array radar for severe storms is investigated, focusing on a violent

Future wave climate over the west-European shelf seas [PDF]
In this paper, we investigate changes in the wave climate of the west-European shelf seas under global warming scenarios. In particular, climate change wind fields corresponding to the present (control) time-slice 1961–2000 and the future (scenario) time-

Abstract Quasi‐linear convective system (QLCS) mesovortices produce a non‐trivial fraction of tornadoes across the United States each year. Tornadoes from QLCS mesovortices evolve rapidly on time scales less than that observed by conventional weather radars. In this study, a well‐calibrated, dual‐polarization phased array radar (PAR) is used to examine

Improvement of the WSR-88D Mesocyclone Algorithm
Abstract The build 9 Weather Surveillance Radar-1988/Doppler mesocyclone algorithm (B9MA) is designed to locate mesocyclones [rotating thunderstorm updrafts with diameters between 1.8 and 9.2 km (1–5 n mi)]. Because there is less than a one to one correspondence between tornadoes and mesocyclones, the B9MA alerts forecasters when it detects ...

Finescale Radar Observations of Tornado and Mesocyclone Structures
Abstract A variety of vortex configurations observed at finescale with Doppler On Wheels (DOW) radars in and near the hook echoes of supercell thunderstorms are described. These include marginal/weak tornadoes, often with no documented condensation funnels, debris rings, or low-reflectivity eyes; multiple-vortex mesocyclones; multiple ...

The Bayesian sinking in Porticello: a predictable convective windstorm?
The meteorological phenomenon that led to the Bayesian yacht sinking in Sicily at 0206 utc on 19 August 2024 is here investigated. A thunderstorm occurred during the sinking, but uncertainties exist regarding whether a waterspout or a downburst affected the ship. An in‐depth analysis of available observations highlighted that the ship was likely struck

The Dabie vortex (DBV) significantly drives tornadoes in eastern China, contributing up to 40% of events in northern Anhui. Most tornadoes form in the DBV's southeastern quadrant during development/maintenance stages, where enhanced CAPE, moisture, shear, and supercell potential exist.

Uzroci razvoja superćelije i tornadogeneze 30. kolovoza 2003. [PDF]
A supercell storm with tornadogenesis in the afternoon hours of the 30th August 2003 in NW Croatia is studied. As was seen from radar and satellite material the cell developed in Slovenia and crossed into Croatia, where interacting with favorable wind ...
