Situational Awareness about Thunderstorms On-board an Aircraft [PDF]

, 2012
Thunderstorms are top-ranked by pilots as weather situations compromising the flight safety. The information for pilots about adverse weather like thunderstorms today is, if at all, based on significant weather charts. Such services, however, do not give

Effects of Side Bileaders on Parent Positive Leader

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.
Abstract Side bileaders are commonly induced near a progressing positive leader, yet their effects on the parent positive leader remain poorly understood. Here we investigate their effects by combining high‐speed video with LF/VLF lightning channel mapping.

Evaluating Changes in Convective Environments Over Subtropical South America Under Forced and Natural Climate Variability

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.
Abstract Many regions worldwide, including Subtropical South America (SSA), face significant challenges from convective systems that produce severe weather. However, limited research exists on how these systems may change under future climate conditions.

A Multi-Year Investigation of Thunderstorm Activity at Istanbul International Airport Using Atmospheric Stability Indices

Atmosphere
Thunderstorms are weather phenomena that comprise thunder and lightning. They typically result in heavy precipitation, including rain, snow, and hail. Thunderstorms have adverse effects on flight at both the ground and the upper levels of the troposphere.

Hailstorm Events Over a Maritime Tropical Region: Environmental Influences on Microphysics

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.
Abstract Building on a previous study showing that NetCAPE0C—formulated as CAPE calculated up to the 0° ${}^{\circ}$C isotherm, after subtracting CIN and correcting for water loading—is effective in predicting hail occurrence in maritime tropical (mT) environments, we examined the microphysics to understand why, particularly for ordinary pulse storms ...

Thunderstorm Strike Probability Nowcasting

, 2009
To assist in thunderstorm warning, automated nowcasting systems have been developed that detect thunderstorm cells in radar images and propagate them forward in time to generate forecasted threat areas.

Spaceborne Far‐Infrared Signal Simulations Over the Antarctic Plateau With Temperature‐Dependent Ice Cloud Optical Properties

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.
Abstract Longwave cloud radiative effects significantly influence variability in global and regional Earth systems. However, there have been very few, if any, measurements of the far‐infrared (FIR) radiation over the polar regions, where about half of the outgoing longwave radiation is in the FIR spectrum. This motivated the Polar Radiant Energy in the

Fast Breakdowns Observed in the Initial Leaders of Two Energetic Compact Strokes

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.
Abstract We have observed 1 fast positive breakdown (FPB) and 20 fast negative breakdowns (FNBs) for the first time in the initial leader of two energetic compact strokes (ECSs) using a broadband interferometer. It was found that the FPB propagated upward over a distance of 30 m with a speed of 1.2×107m/s $1.2\times {10}^{7}\mathrm{m}/\mathrm{s ...

Cosmic Radiation Dose‐Rates for Civil Aviation in the Middle East: Vertical Structure, Solar Modulation, and Comparison With Models

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.
Abstract High‐altitude balloon measurements were conducted over southern Israel (30°35′N, 34°45′E; 850 m a.s.l., geomagnetic rigidity cutoff 10.3 GV) to characterize the vertical profiles of atmospheric ionization and radiation up to ∼35 km. Six balloon launches between October 2014 and August 2016 recorded the variability of atmospheric ionization ...
