Solar modulation of atmospheric electrification through variation of the conductivity over thunderstorms [PDF]
It is suggested that variations of the current in the global atmospheric electrical circuit can be produced through regulation of the resistance between the tops of thunderclouds and the ionosphere.

The development of convective instability, wind shear, and vertical motion in relation to convection activity and synoptic systems in AVE 4 [PDF]
Data from the Fourth Atmospheric Variability Experiment were used to investigate conditions/factors responsible for the development (local time rate-of-change) of convective instability, wind shear, and vertical motion in areas with varying degrees of ...

Vorticity imbalance and stability in relation to convection [PDF]
A complete synoptic-scale vorticity budget was related to convection storm development in the eastern two-thirds of the United States. The 3-h sounding interval permitted a study of time changes of the vorticity budget in areas of convective storms ...
