Climate change impact on thunderstorms: Analysis of thunderstorm indices using high-resolution regional climate simulations [PDF]

Meteorologische Zeitschrift, 2017
It is generally assumed that the temperature increase associated with global climate change will lead to increased thunderstorm intensity and associated heavy precipitation events. In the present study it is investigated whether the frequency of thunderstorm occurrences will in- or decrease and how the spatial distribution will change for the A1B ...

The effects of high liquid water content on thunderstorm charging [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 1992
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 insignificant to thunderstorm electrification. The implications of this null result to a recent analysis of

Simulation of location-specific severe thunderstorm events using high-resolution land data assimilation [PDF]

Dynamics of atmospheres and oceans (Print), 2019
In this study, the impact of different initial land conditions on the simulation of thunderstorms and monsoon depressions is investigated using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model. A control run (CNTL) and a simulation with an improved land

Integrated Schumann Resonance Intensity as an Indicator of the Global Thunderstorm Activity

Geosciences, 2023
This paper addresses the accuracy of estimates for the contemporary level of global thunderstorm activity found from the synchronous records of integrated Schumann resonance (SR) intensity at two high-latitude observatories in the Northern and Southern ...

Cb-LIKE – Cumulonimbus Likelihood: Thunderstorm forecasting with fuzzy logic

Meteorologische Zeitschrift, 2017
Aviation is heavily affected by thunderstorms. Approaching storm cells with accompanying effects such as heavy rain, hail or downdrafts cause delays and flight cancellations.

Forecasting thunderstorm initiation in north‐west Europe using thermodynamic indices, satellite and radar data

Meteorological Applications, 1994
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

A pilot forecasting system for epidemic thunderstorm asthma in south-eastern Australia

Bulletin of The American Meteorological Society - (BAMS), 2020
In November 2016, an unprecedented epidemic thunderstorm asthma event in Victoria, Australia, resulted in many thousands of people developing breathing difficulties in a very short period of time, including ten deaths, and created extreme demand across

Thunderstorm-Associated Asthma or Shortness of Breath Epidemic: A Canadian Case Report [PDF]

Canadian Respiratory Journal, 2002
Thunderstorm-associated asthma epidemics have been documented in the literature, but no Canadian experience has been reported. On July 31, 2000, a thunderstorm-associated epidemic of asthma or shortness of breath occurred in Calgary, Alberta. The Calgary
