Air–sea interaction in medicanes with atmosphere–ocean–wave coupled regional climate simulations
The atmosphere–ocean–wave coupling improved storm intensity compared to standalone atmosphere setting, which tended to overestimate wind speeds. The atmosphere–ocean coupling in medicane simulations leads to increased sea surface temperatures, which enhances evaporation and promotes the development of convective systems through increased latent heat ...

Ten Years of Boundary-Layer and Wind-Power Meteorology at Høvsøre, Denmark
Operational since 2004, the National Centre for Wind Turbines at Høvsøre, Denmark has become a reference research site for wind-power meteorology. In this study, we review the site, its instrumentation, observations, and main research programs.

This study analyzed the impact of two mesoscale cyclones on the meteorology and glaciology of South Shetland Islands (SSI) glaciers, using in‐situ observations, ERA5 reanalysis data, and high‐resolution weather and glacier mass balance models. Mesoscale cyclones drive temperature drops, heavy snowfall, and strong winds over the SSI, significantly ...

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.

An observational study of a circular gust front over the Yangtze Delta, China
Concentric gust fronts are formed when a thunderstorm's downdraft reaches the ground and the outflow from the cold pool spreads uniformly outwards into the surrounding warm and humid air mass. Observational evidence presented here show the case of narrow‐band echoes forming a ring around a thunderstorm.

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 MST radar technique: Requirements for operational weather forecasting [PDF]
There is a feeling that the accuracy of mesoscale forecasts for spatial scales of less than 1000 km and time scales of less than 12 hours can be improved significantly if resources are applied to the problem in an intensive effort over the next decade ...

Recent progress in atmospheric modeling over the Andes – part I: review of atmospheric processes
The Andes is the longest mountain range in the world, stretching from tropical South America to austral Patagonia (12°N-55°S). Along with the climate differences associated with latitude, the Andean region also features contrasting slopes and elevations,
