Mesoscale convective systems (MCS) contribute about half of the world's precipitation and create flash flooding as well as other extreme weather events. Despite steady progress in research of these systems in the last several decades, better theoretical ...

Impact of initial water vapor on the upscale growing process of a squall line in South China
During the spring and summer seasons, in the South China region where abundant water vapor is present, squall lines can rapidly develop into larger scales within a short period of time.

Divergent convective outflow in large-eddy simulations [PDF]
Upper-tropospheric outflow is analysed in cloud-resolving large-eddy simulations. Thereby, the role of convective organization, latent heating, and other factors in upper-tropospheric divergent-outflow variability from deep convection is diagnosed using ...

A clustering-based method for identifying and tracking squall lines [PDF]
The squall line is a type of convective system that is characterized by storm cells arranged in a line or band pattern and is usually associated with disastrous weather.

Mineral dust indirect effects and cloud radiative feedbacks of a simulated idealized nocturnal squall line [PDF]
Mineral dust is arguably the most abundant aerosol species in the world and as such potentially plays a large role in aerosol indirect effects (AIEs).

Synoptic and Mesoscale Analysis of a Severe Weather Event in Southern Brazil at the End of June 2020
At the end of June 2020, an explosive extratropical cyclone was responsible for an environment in which a squall line developed and caused life and economic losses in Santa Catarina state, southern Brazil.

An improvement of wind gust estimate (WGE) method for squall lines
Severe wind gusts produced by squall lines are difficult to monitor and forecast. This paper assessed and improved the physics-based Brasseur WGE (wind gust estimate) method for diagnosing wind gust of squall lines by coupling the WGE methods with the ...

A reconstruction of 1 August 1674 thunderstorms over the Low Countries [PDF]
On 1 August 1674 an active cold front moved over the Low Countries. The accompanying thunderstorms along the squall line were abnormally active, leading to large-scale damage in Europe, from northern France to the northern parts of Holland where damages ...

A radar reflectivity observation operator with ice‐phase hydrometeors was employed for the assimilation of the real radar observations of a squall line on June 14, 2009, over Anhui and Jiangsu provinces in China. The three‐dimensional variational (3DVAR)
