A Novel Approach for the Detection of Developing Thunderstorm Cells
Remote Sensing, 2019 This study presents a novel approach for the early detection of developing thunderstorms. To date, methods for the detection of developing thunderstorms have usually relied on accurate Atmospheric Motion Vectors (AMVs) for the estimation of the cooling ...

Thunderstorms and thunderstorm precipitations in southern Poland [PDF]
Environmental & Socio-economic Studies, 2014 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.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.Abstract Longwave cloud radiative effects significantly influence variability in global and regional Earth systems. However, there have been very few, if any, measurements of the far‐infrared (FIR) radiation over the polar regions, where about half of the outgoing longwave radiation is in the FIR spectrum. This motivated the Polar Radiant Energy in the

Advances towards the development of a cloud-resolving model in South Africa
South African Journal of Science, 2014 Recent advances in supercomputing have made feasible the numerical integration of high-resolution cloud-resolving models (CRMs). CRMs are being used increasingly for high-resolution operational numerical weather prediction and for research purposes.

Fast Breakdowns Observed in the Initial Leaders of Two Energetic Compact Strokes
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.Abstract We have observed 1 fast positive breakdown (FPB) and 20 fast negative breakdowns (FNBs) for the first time in the initial leader of two energetic compact strokes (ECSs) using a broadband interferometer. It was found that the FPB propagated upward over a distance of 30 m with a speed of 1.2×107m/s $1.2\times {10}^{7}\mathrm{m}/\mathrm{s ...

Winter thunderstorms in Poland (1951–2020)
Environmental & Socio-economic StudiesOne of the climate changes observed in mid-latitudes is the increase in the frequency of winter thunderstorms. These changes are also observed in Poland.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.Abstract High‐altitude balloon measurements were conducted over southern Israel (30°35′N, 34°45′E; 850 m a.s.l., geomagnetic rigidity cutoff 10.3 GV) to characterize the vertical profiles of atmospheric ionization and radiation up to ∼35 km. Six balloon launches between October 2014 and August 2016 recorded the variability of atmospheric ionization ...
