Extreme weather caused by concurrent cyclone, front and thunderstorm occurrences

Scientific Reports, 2017
Phenomena such as cyclones, fronts and thunderstorms can cause extreme weather in various regions throughout the world. Although these phenomena have been examined in numerous studies, they have not all been systematically examined in combination with ...

Analysis of the first gigantic jet recorded over continental North America [PDF]

, 2007
[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 ...

Weathering the storms of climate change: Preparing persons with disabilities and the physiatrists who provide their care for extreme hurricanes

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate‐driven disasters have disproportionate and often devastating consequences on individuals with disabilities. Warming ocean and air temperatures are fueling more extreme tropical cyclones, further endangering those living in at‐risk regions.

Differential reflectivity columns and hail: Linking C‐band radar‐based estimated column characteristics to crowdsourced hail observations in Switzerland

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Differential reflectivity columns (ZDRC$$ {Z}_{\mathrm{DR}}C $$) have been detected automatically on a composite of radar data derived from five operational C‐band dual‐polarization Doppler weather radars in Switzerland. The characteristics of the detected ZDRC$$ {Z}_{\mathrm{DR}}C $$ are linked to a large sample of 173,000 crowdsourced hail ...

Experimental Evidence of Giant Electron - Gamma Bursts Generated by Extensive Atmospheric Showers in Thunderclouds

, 2004
The existence of a new phenomena - giant electron-gamma bursts is established. The bursts are generated in thunderclouds as a result of the combined action of runaway breakdown and extensive atmosphere showers (RB-EAS).

Electromagnetic atmosphere-plasma coupling: the global atmospheric electric circuit [PDF]

, 2011
A description is given of the global atmospheric electric circuit operating between the Earth’s surface and the ionosphere. Attention is drawn to the huge range of horizontal and vertical spatial scales, ranging from 10−9 m to 1012 m, concerned with the ...
