Thunderstorms over a tropical Indian station, Minicoy: Role of vertical wind shear [PDF]
In this study, an attempt has been made to bring out the observational aspects of vertical wind shear in thunderstorms over Minicoy. Case studies of thunderstorm events have been examined to find out the effect of vertical wind shear and instability on ...

New Possible Mechanisms of Thunderstorm Clouds Physics [PDF]
The work provides possible mechanisms of physics of thunderstorm clouds. We tried to consider the problems of the hail clouds in a completely different view. The article is based on the latest scientific achievement of modern theoretical physics, chemistry, physics of thunderstorms clouds and gives opportunities for new ways searching of impact on hail

Strong variations of cosmic ray intensity during thunderstorms and associated pulsations of the geomagnetic field [PDF]
Strong variations of the intensity of secondary cosmic rays during thunderstorms are found to be accompanied in some cases by very clear pulsations of the geomagnetic field. The experiment is carried out in the Baksan Valley, North Caucasus, the Carpet air shower array being used as a particle detector.

Analysis of the first gigantic jet recorded over continental North America [PDF]
[1] Two low-light cameras near Marfa, Texas, recorded a gigantic jet over northern Mexico on 13 May 2005 at approximately 0423:50 UTC. Assuming that the farthest of two candidate storm systems was its source, the bright lower channel ended in a fork at ...

Thunderstorms, lightning, sprites and magnetospheric whistler-mode radio waves [PDF]
Thunderstorms and the lightning that they produce are inherently interesting phenomena that have intrigued scientists and mankind in general for many years. The study of thunderstorms has rapidly advanced during the past century and many efforts have been made towards understanding lightning, thunderstorms and their consequences. Recent observations of

Combination of mesoscale and synoptic mechanisms for triggering an isolated thunderstorm: Observational case study of CSIP IOP 1 [PDF]
Copyright @ 2007 AMSAn isolated thunderstorm formed in the southern United Kingdom on 15 June 2005 and moved through the area where a large number of observational instruments were deployed as part of the Convective Storm Initiation Project.

Analysis of satellite data for sensor improvement (detection of severe storms from space) [PDF]
Stereo photography of clouds over southeast Asia was obtained using NOAA-7 and the Japanese GMS. Due to the breakdown of GMS2, GMS1, which had been retired, is being used as the replacement satellite.
