Observation of A Tornado Event in Outside-region of Typhoon Mangkhut by X-band Polarimetric Phased Array Radar in 2018

open access: yes应用气象学报, 2020
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]

open access: yes, 2011
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-

Dual‐Polarization Phased Array Radar Observations of Quasi‐Linear Convective System Tornadic Mesovortices

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 23, 16 December 2025.
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

open access: yesWeather and Forecasting, 1998
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

open access: yesWeather and Forecasting, 2013
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?

open access: yesWeather, Volume 80, Issue 11, Page 365-373, November 2025.
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

Analysis of supercell and meso-scale convective system causing an extreme thunderstorm gale in Tianjin on 25 June 2020

open access: yes暴雨灾害, 2023
An extreme thunderstorm gale event (hereinafter referred to as the "6.25" event) occurred in Tianjin on 25 June 2020. Based on the intensive stational data and the data from Doppler weather radar, wind profile radar, microwave radiometer, and VDRAS ...

Statistical Characteristics of Dabie‐Vortex‐Associated Tornadogenesis During an 18‐Year Period (2006–2023)

open access: yesAtmospheric Science Letters, Volume 26, Issue 10, October 2025.
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]

open access: yes, 2005
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 ...
