Data‐Driven Exploration of Tropical Cyclone's Controllability
Abstract Although the chaotic nature of the atmosphere may enable efficient control of tropical cyclones (TCs) via small‐scale perturbations, few studies have proposed data‐driven optimization methods to identify such perturbations. Here, we apply the recently proposed Ensemble Kalman Control (EnKC) to a TC simulation.

The Source Brightness Distribution of Terrestrial Gamma‐Ray Flashes From the ALOFT Flight Campaign
Abstract Terrestrial Gamma‐ray Flashes (TGFs) are naturally occurring phenomena that consist of bursts of gamma radiation associated with thunderclouds. Measurements of TGFs have been predominantly based on satellite instruments due to the significantly larger observation area compared to ground measurements. Due to atmospheric attenuation of the gamma

A climatology of the occurrence of thunderstorms over north‐west Europe is described based upon an analysis of synoptic data, polar‐orbiting satellite infrared imagery and high‐resolution sferics data. The close relationship of thunderstorm initiation to

Based on thunderstorm data from 11 meteorological observation stations in Fuzhou and NCEP reanalysis data during the period of 1960-2018, the temporal and spatial distribution characteristics and variation trend of thunderstorms are analyzed by using ...

Abstract Gravity waves (GWs) are a fundamental driver of circulation, tracer transport, and mixing in the middle and upper atmosphere, but their treatment in global circulation models remains incomplete. In particular, standard parameterizations typically restrict propagation to the vertical and treat GW–turbulence interactions in only a rudimentary ...

Thunderstorms and thunderstorm precipitations in southern Poland [PDF]
Abstract This paper addresses spatial and temporal variability in the occurrence of thunderstorms and related precipitation in southern Poland between 1951 and 2010. The analysis was based on thunderstorm observations and daily precipitation totals (broken down into the few ranges) from 15 meteorological stations.

Abstract Fundamental questions remain about where and when convection will occur within African easterly waves. In this study, we aim to better understand the dynamical processes that govern moist convective organization at the meso‐alpha scale in tropical easterly waves using NASA airborne field campaigns and satellite observations.

Abstract Winter convection can trigger severe disasters due to low temperature, yet the drivers and mechanisms of regional long‐term trends in winter convective initiation remain unclear. Using homogenized radiosonde data, we reveal the spatially divergent trends in wintertime atmospheric unstable conditions, with a significant decrease in the northern
