Analysis and modeling of microburst precipitation

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 1996
Observations from a recent rocket experiment that measured electrons over the energy range of 1–300 keV shows that microburst temporal structures exist from about 20 keV to >120 keV. Simultaneous observations at five different pitch‐angles (0°–90°) show the distribution is nearly isotropic during the bursts, while at low activity (quiet times and ...

Airborne Wind Shear Detection and Warning Systems: First Combined Manufacturers' and Technologists' Conference [PDF]

open access: yes
The purpose of the meeting was to transfer significant, ongoing results gained during the first year of the joint NASA/FAA Airborne Wind Shear Program to the technical industry and to pose problems of current concern to the combined group.

Association of Relativistic Electron Microbursts Duration With Chorus Wave Properties

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Relativistic electron microbursts are correlated with resonant scattering by whistler‐mode chorus waves. Here, we use chorus wave properties obtained from Van Allen Probe A to calculate the duration of relativistic microbursts.

VHF discharges in storm cells producing microbursts [PDF]

open access: yes
An experiment was carried out in which 3-D mapping of VHF sources was compared to a 3-D description of the reflectivity and dynamics of associated cloud cells observed by a radar network.

Severe Weather Events over Southeastern Brazil during the 2016 Dry Season

open access: yesAdvances in Meteorology, 2018
Southeastern Brazil is the most populated and economically developed region of this country. Its climate consists of two distinct seasons: the dry season, extending from April to September, the precipitation is significantly reduced in comparison to that

A proposed definition for a pitch attitude target for the microburst escape maneuver [PDF]

open access: yes
The Windshear Training Aid promulgated by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) defines the practical recovery maneuver following a microburst encounter as application of maximum thrust accompanied by rotation to an aircraft-specific target pitch ...

Observation and Numerical Simulation of Terrain-Induced Windshear at the Hong Kong International Airport in a Planetary Boundary Layer without Temperature Inversions

open access: yesAdvances in Meteorology, 2016
Terrain-induced windshear at Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA) could be hazardous to the landing and departing aircraft. Such windshear occurring in a planetary boundary layer without temperature inversions is studied in this paper by using the data
