Searching for effects caused by thunderstorms in midlatitude sporadic E layers [PDF]
Possible thunderstorm - sporadic E (Es) layer coupling effects are investigated during two measurement periods, one in 2013 and one in 2014. The analysis was based on ionospheric observations obtained from a Digisonde at Pruhonice, the Czech Republic, an ionosonde at Nagycenk, Hungary, and a 3.59 MHz five-point continuous HF Doppler system located in ...

Machine learning based automated identification of thunderstorms from anemometric records using shapelet transform [PDF]
Detection of thunderstorms is important to the wind hazard community to better understand extreme winds field characteristics and associated wind induced load effects on structures. This paper contributes to this effort by proposing a new course of research that uses machine learning techniques, independent of wind statistics based parameters, to ...

A machine-learning approach to thunderstorm forecasting through post-processing of simulation data [PDF]
Thunderstorms pose a major hazard to society and economy, which calls for reliable thunderstorm forecasts. In this work, we introduce a Signature-based Approach of identifying Lightning Activity using MAchine learning (SALAMA), a feedforward neural network model for identifying thunderstorm occurrence in numerical weather prediction (NWP) data.

The Effects of High Liquid Water Content on Thunderstorm Charging [PDF]
Charge transfer to a riming graupel target during interactions with ice crystals has been investigated in the laboratory. When liquid water contents sufficiently high to cause wet growth are achieved, the charge transfer falls to values which are ...

Development of Sumatera eArly warNing ConvectIve System (SANCIS) for Thunderstorm Prediction Model [PDF]
Since the activity of thunderstorm over Sumatera area – Indonesia increased during intermonsoon season in September, October, and November (SON) month, the thunderstorm as a natural disaster is influenced human activity.

The diurnal path to persistent convective self-aggregation [PDF]
Clustering of tropical thunderstorms constitutes an important climate feedback because it influences the heat radiated to space. Convective self-aggregation (CSA) is a profound modelling paradigm for explaining the clustering of tropical oceanic thunderstorms.

Markov chain models for pre-monsoon season thunderstorms over Pune [PDF]
The probabilistic distribution of the thunderstorm phenomenon during the pre-monsoon season (1 March to 18 June) over Pune, a tropical Indian station, has been examined with the help of Markov chain models using daily thunderstorm data for a period of 11

Atmospheric electricity and thunderstorm ground enhancements [PDF]
The comparative analysis of three thunderstorms on Aragats in May 2021 demonstrates that relativistic runaway electron avalanches are developing in large areas of the thunderous atmosphere.

The criterion for infinite positron feedback in dynamics of relativistic runaway electron avalanches [PDF]
Relativistic runaway electron avalanches (RREA) accelerated by thunderstorm large-scale electric fields are one of the sources of atmospheric gamma radiation. In strong electric fields, RREAs can multiply by the relativistic feedback. Infinite relativistic feedback makes avalanches self-sustainable and hypothetically can cause a terrestrial gamma-ray ...
