The North Dakota Thunderstorm Project: A Cooperative Study of High Plains Thunderstorms
Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 1992Abstract The North Dakota Thunderstorm Project was conducted in the Bismarck, North Dakota, area from 12 June through 22 July 1989. The project deployed Doppler radars, cloud physics aircraft, and supporting instrumentation to study a variety of aspects of convective clouds. These included transport and dispersion; entrainment; cloud-ice initiation and

Thunderstorm types and meteorological characteristics of upward lightning
International Conference on Logic Programming, 2022Upwardlightning is rare, but destructive and not confined to the winter season as frequently pre-sented in literature. This study identifies the dominant thunderstorm types for upward lightning and the underlying meteorological settings for its ...

High energy electrons produced in a thunderstorm
Physica, 1952Synopsis A number of cases has been observed in which the presence of high energy electrons of 10 9 eV is directly recorded during thunderstorms. In one instance on the 3rd of May 1952, a 4 to 6% increase above the mean value of the ionisation was found in 6 different recording instruments.

An eight-year climatology of the warm-season severe thunderstorm environments over North China
, 2021Using proximity soundings taken during the warm seasons (May–September) of 2011–2018 over North China, this work investigated the environments of severe thunderstorms that caused the following four types of convective hazards: only hail (H), only ...

High-Voltage Phenomena in Thunderstorms
Transactions of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, 1929Lightning phenomena are analyzed in the light of laboratory experience with high-voltage phenomena in the atmosphere. Special emphasis is placed on the effect of space charges in producing high local stresses when mobilized through channels of high conductivity caused by high temperatures.

High-Resolution Thunderstorm Modeling
2020Since the dawn of the digital computing age in the mid-20th century, computers have been used as virtual laboratories for the study of atmospheric phenomena. The first simulations of thunderstorms captured only their gross features, yet required the most advanced computing hardware of the time.

Thunderstorm Signals at Very-high Frequency and Ultra-high Frequency
Nature, 1955WHILE signals from distant very-high and ultra-high frequency transmitters were being monitored on June 26, 1954, a thunderstorm occurred in the region of the receivers. The transmitters, which operated at 49, 91, 173 and 492 Mc./s., were some two hundred miles from the receiving site. Fig.

Previous studies indicated that numbers of meso‐micro scale severe convective weather exhibited a significant decrease over China's mainland in the past decades. However, the possible mechanism of the decrease has not been well understood.

Observations of microphysical evolution in a High Plains thunderstorm anvil
Atmospheric Research, 1994Abstract An instrumented aircraft performed several penetrations of the upper regions of a U.S. High Plains thunderstorm anvil. The concentrations of particles larger than about 50 μm were up to 10 6 m −3 , which is much higher than has been found in some other studies of the anvil regions of thunderstorms.

High energetic radiation from thunderstorms and lightning
2012Electrical discharges in gases can be roughly divided into two categories: those whose behavior is governed by low-energy electrons, with energies less than a few tens of eV, and those whose behavior is governed by high-energy electrons, with energies often reaching several tens of MeV.
