The characteristics of squall lines in the Southeast Asia region

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society
Abstract The Maritime Continent experiences active convective activity all year round, with strong diurnal rainfall variation. Squall lines are frequent in this region, which is surrounded by the warm sea, and coastlines mostly run perpendicular or parallel to the monsoon winds.

Impact of initial water vapor on the upscale growing process of a squall line in South China

暴雨灾害, 2023
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.

Near-Surface Atmospheric Turbulence in the Presence of a Squall Line above a Forested and Deforested Region in the Central Amazon

Atmosphere, 2021
Squall lines (SLs) are convective systems that cause heavy precipitation and consequently modify the atmospheric thermodynamic structure near the surface. SLs generated along the northern coast of Brazil and their effect upon atmospheric structure during

Effects of Microphysics Parameterizations on Forecasting a Severe Hailstorm of 30 April 2021 in Eastern China

Atmosphere, 2023
On the evening of 30 April 2021, a severe hailstorm swept across eastern China, causing catastrophic gale and damaging hailstones. This hailstorm event was directly caused by two mesoscale convective systems associated with strong squall lines, with mid ...

Windthrow Variability in Central Amazonia

Atmosphere, 2017
Windthrows are a recurrent disturbance in Amazonia and are an important driver of forest dynamics and carbon storage. In this study, we present for the first time the seasonal and interannual variability of windthrows, focusing on Central Amazonia, and ...

Estimation of Lightning Activity of Squall Lines by Different Lightning Parameterization Schemes in the Weather Research and Forecasting Model

Remote Sensing, 2023
Based on three-dimensional lightning data and an S-band Doppler radar, a strong relationship was identified between lightning activity and the radar volume of squall lines. A detailed analysis of the squall line investigates the relationship following an
