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

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

Gravity waves (GWs) generated in the lower atmosphere can propagate upwards to ionospheric height. In this study, we investigated the correlation between ionospheric GWs detected by Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS)-derived total electron content

High Production of Gigantic Jets by a Thunderstorm Over Indian Ocean
AbstractThirteen gigantic jets (GJ) were observed on 12 February 2020, with a sensitive video camera located at Maïdo Observatory, La Réunion Island in Indian Ocean. They were produced within 68 min by nearby cells embedded in a convective system almost 500 km from Maïdo. The video imagery combined with the lightning activity from GLD360, the cloud top

High-impact thunderstorms of the Brisbane metropolitan area
Accurate thunderstorm warnings in the hours-to-minutes preceding impact are often limited by the complex evolution of the mesoscale atmospheric environment. To accurately capture these complexities, analysis of observations remained central to operational short-term nowcasting predictions of thunderstorms.

DYNANICS AND MODERN REGIME OF THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY OVER CENTRAL PRECAUCASUS TERRITORY
Introduction: In the Central Ciscaucasia, which represents the Stavropol Territory, such dangerous meteorological phenomena as thunderstorms, hail, heavy rain, strong wind, heat, and drought are most often observed.

Research progress on thunderstorm asthma and its susceptibility factors [PDF]
Thunderstorm asthma refers to a pathological phenomenon in which the acute exacerbation of bronchial asthma or the worsening symptoms occurs due to the action of high concentrations of allergens on susceptible populations under specific meteorological ...
