Characteristics and Predictability of Extreme Precipitation Related to Atmospheric Rivers, Mesoscale Convective Systems, and Tropical Cyclones in the U.S. Southeast

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 130, Issue 15, 16 August 2025.
Abstract The Southeastern United States (SEUS) region has lower extreme quantitative precipitation forecast (QPF) skill compared to the northeastern or western United States. Previous studies have reported that the extreme precipitation events (EPEs) with high integrated vapor transport (IVT) have higher QPF skill than those with low IVT in the SEUS ...

Statistical Analysis of Trans‐Ionospheric Pulse Pairs and Inferences on Their Characteristics

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 130, Issue 15, 16 August 2025.
Abstract Trans‐ionospheric pulse pairs (TIPPs), first observed in 1993, are signatures of in‐cloud lightning discharges observed by satellite‐based broadband very high frequency (VHF) receivers. It has been definitively shown that TIPPs are the space‐based signatures of compact intracloud discharges (CIDs), and that the associated pair of pulses that ...

Analysis of the Relationship Between the Morphological Characteristics of Lightning Channels and Turbulent Dynamics Based on the Localization of VHF Radiation Sources

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Lightning channel morphology depends on the thunderstorm cloud charge structure, which in turn is influenced by the thunderstorm dynamics. In this paper, based on three‐dimensional radiation source localization data from the Lightning Mapping Array and ...

Vertical Distribution of Sound Power Within Lightning

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 130, Issue 15, 16 August 2025.
Abstract Methods for location of infrasonic and low frequency sound sources allow to reconstruct complex lightning geometries, including simultaneously cloud‐to‐ground return strokes and intracloud discharges. Back‐propagating the ground recorded pressure also provides an estimation of the sound source power distribution within a lightning flash, by ...
