Spatial patterns in thunderstorm rainfall events and their coupling with watershed hydrological response [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Weather radar systems provide detailed information on spatial rainfall patterns known to play a significant role in runoff generation processes. In the current study, we present an innovative approach to exploit spatial rainfall information of air mass ...

Interviews of Mongolian herders and high resolution precipitation data reveal an increase in short heavy rains and thunderstorm activity in semi-arid Mongolia

open access: yesClimatic Change, 2016
Increases in extreme record-breaking daily precipitation events have accompanied warming temperatures causing increased flooding in many areas of the World, but are not well documented for arid and semi-arid regions.

Modal Interference Drives Madden‐Julian Oscillation Evolution and Predictability

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.
Abstract A data‐driven dynamical filter is developed to characterize Madden‐Julian Oscillation (MJO) variability, by representing tropical variability with nonorthogonal empirical‐dynamical modes that allow for constructive and destructive interference.

In Situ Observations of Ice Crystal Chain Aggregates in Winter Storms

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.
Abstract Ice crystal chain aggregates—linear structures of conjoined monomer crystals—have previously been observed in strongly electrified deep convection, likely forming via electric‐field‐enhanced aggregation. The NASA Investigation of Microphysics and Precipitation for Atlantic Coast‐Threatening Snowstorms field campaign conducted aircraft‐based ...

The Importance of an Ensemble Approach for Modeling Aerosol‐Convection Interactions

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.
Abstract Aerosol‐convection interactions modulate cloud microphysics, thermodynamics, and updraft intensity, contributing to climate‐scale aerosol‐radiative forcing. However, quantifying aerosol indirect effects in mixed‐phase deep convection remains challenging due to uncertainties in parameterized physics and initial conditions driving nonlinear ...

Influence of thunderstorm cloud on the performance of satellite-to-ground quantum link and parameters simulation

open access: yesTongxin xuebao, 2017
In order to investigate the effect of thunderstorm cloud on the performance of satellite-to-ground quantum link,according to the extinction cross section and the number concentration distribution function of the charged particle in the thunderstorm cloud,

A Unified Theory for the Global Thunderstorm Distribution and Land–Sea Contrast

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.
Abstract This article evaluates Entraining CAPE (ECAPE) as a thunderstorm proxy in climate studies using Global Precipitation Measurement satellite observations. ECAPE modifies traditional CAPE to account for the dependence of entrainment on the vertical wind shear, the lifted condensation level (LCL) height, and the properties of a cloud's surrounding

Environmental Influences on Deep Convective Upscale Growth Rate in Central Argentina From a Convection‐Permitting Simulation

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.
Abstract This study uses a convection‐permitting model simulation to describe the environmental conditions under which convective upscale growth occurs in central Argentina, particularly examining environmental parameters when deep convection initially forms that could differentiate the rate of initial upscale growth.
