Microphysical Characteristics of a Squall Line Modulated by the Northeast China Cold Vortex Using Polarimetric Radar and Disdrometer Observations

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Heavy precipitation in Northeast China is frequently modulated by the Northeast China Cold Vortex (NCCV), although the microphysical processes within squall lines under such conditions remain insufficiently understood. This study presents a comprehensive

Observations of the temporal variability in aerosol properties and their relationships to meteorology in the summer monsoonal South China Sea/East Sea: the scale-dependent role of monsoonal flows, the Madden–Julian Oscillation, tropical cyclones, squall lines and cold pools [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2015
In a joint NRL/Manila Observatory mission, as part of the Seven SouthEast Asian Studies program (7-SEAS), a 2-week, late September 2011 research cruise in the northern Palawan archipelago was undertaken to observe the nature of southwest monsoonal ...

A Novel Approach for the Global Detection and Nowcasting of Deep Convection and Thunderstorms

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Thunderstorms are among the most common and most dangerous meteorological hazards in the world. They cause lightning and can lead to strong wind gusts, squall lines, hail and heavy precipitation combined with flooding, and therefore pose a threat to ...

Applicability Study of a Diffusion Transformer Forecasting Model in the Complex Terrain of Guizhou

open access: yesMeteorological Applications, Volume 33, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Performance comparison of the HARE model and the Fenglei baseline across four evaluation metrics (CSI, POD, FAR, and Frequency Bias) over a 142‐day verification period. ABSTRACT Precipitation nowcasting in complex terrains like the Guizhou Plateau is challenged by the blurry forecasts and premature dissipation common in traditional and early deep ...
