Twentieth century secular decrease in the atmospheric potential gradient [PDF]
, 2002 Current flowing in the global atmospheric electrical circuit (AEC) substantially decreased during the twentieth century. Fair-weather potential gradient (PG) observations in Scotland and Shetland show a previously unreported annual decline from 1920 to ...

Predicting Pre-monsoon Thunderstorms -A Statistical View through Propositional Logic [PDF]
published in Solstice: An Electronic Journal of Geography and
Mathematics, Year 2002, Volume 13, Issue 2, 2006 Thunderstorms very close to a monsoon and not so close to a monsoon are considered in this analysis. Some important predictors are considered. Pearson Correlation Coefficient and lag-1 autocorrelation coefficients are calculated to create necessary universes of discourse for prepositional logic.

Storm Detection by Visual Learning Using Satellite Images [PDF]
, 2016 Computers are widely utilized in today's weather forecasting as a powerful tool to leverage an enormous amount of data. Yet, despite the availability of such data, current techniques often fall short of producing reliable detailed storm forecasts. Each year severe thunderstorms cause significant damage and loss of life, some of which could be avoided ...

Numeric and fluid dynamic representation of tornadic double vortex thunderstorms [PDF]
Current understanding of a double vortex thunderstorm involves a pair of contra-rotating vortices that exists in the dynamic updraft. The pair is believed to be a result of a blocking effect which occurs when a cylindrical thermal updraft of a ...

Effect of wind turbine generator model and siting on wind power changes out of large WECS arrays [PDF]
, 1981 Methods of reducing the WECS generation change through selection of the wind turbine model for each site, selection of an appropriate siting configuration, and wind array controls are discussed. An analysis of wind generation change from an echelon and a

Monte Carlo simulations of air showers in atmospheric electric fields [PDF]
, 2009 The development of cosmic ray air showers can be influenced by atmospheric electric fields. Under fair weather conditions these fields are small, but the strong fields inside thunderstorms can have a significant effect on the electromagnetic component of

Spatial, seasonal and inter-seasonal variations of thunderstorm frequency over Nigeria [PDF]
, 2016 Using a 10-year daily data thunderstorm and dry thunder (thunder without precipitation) that spans from 1991-2000, the spatial, seasonal and inter-seasonal variations of thunderstorm frequency have been investigated with results which include the ...
