Radar-Based Analysis of Convective Storms over Northwestern Italy

Atmosphere, 2011
Thunderstorms may cause large damages to infrastructures and population, therefore the possible identification of the areas with the highest occurrence of these events is especially relevant.

Characterization and Localization of Chemical Explosions and Lightning Flashes by a Flotilla of Stratospheric Balloons

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract On 3 August 2021, a flotilla of four Heliotrope solar hot air balloons was launched from central New Mexico (USA). The balloons, equipped with microbarometers, flew from sunrise to sunset at altitudes between 17 and 22 km. During the flight, eight chemical explosions ranging from 45 to 136 kg TNT equivalent and a thunderstorm occurred in the ...

U.S. Hail Frequency and the Global Wind Oscillation

Geophysical Research Letters, 2018
Changes in Earth relative atmospheric angular momentum can be described by an index known as the Global Wind Oscillation. This global index accounts for changes in Earth's atmospheric budget of relative angular momentum through interactions of tropical ...

Numerical Parameter‐Space Studies of Various Types of Thundercloud Gamma‐Ray Emissions

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Until recently, mainly two types of hard radiation were observed in thunderstorms: intensive, short‐lived terrestrial gamma‐ray flashes (TGFs) and weak, long‐lasting gamma‐ray glows (GRGs). The Airborne Lightning Observatory for Fly's Eye GLM Simulator and TGFs (ALOFT, GLM: Geostationary Lightning Mapper) flight campaign revealed additional ...

A Climatology of Mesoscale Convective System Hazards in the United States and Their Representation in a Convection‐Permitting Model

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) are large, organized convective storms that frequently produce flash floods and other severe hazards such as damaging winds, hail, and tornadoes. Developing an observationally based MCS hazard climatology is important for establishing a baseline to evaluate the representation of these events in numerical ...

Radar Z-R relationship for summer monsoon storms in Arizona [PDF]

, 2005
Radar-based estimates of rainfall rates and accumulations are one of the principal tools used by the National Weather Service (NWS) to identify areas of extreme precipitation that could lead to flooding.

Impact of Docking Strand Design on Spatial Resolution in DNA‐Points Accumulation for Imaging in Nanoscale Topography

ChemPhysChem, Volume 27, Issue 5, 13 March 2026.
The design of DNA‐PAINT docking strands critically influences spatial resolution and signal stability. By comparing single (1 × R1) and repetitive (5 × R1) docking architectures on PCNA, we reveal how binding kinetics and localization precision determine the accuracy of sub‐10 nm imaging in protein nanostructures. DNA points accumulation for imaging in

The development of convective instability, wind shear, and vertical motion in relation to convection activity and synoptic systems in AVE 4 [PDF]

Data from the Fourth Atmospheric Variability Experiment were used to investigate conditions/factors responsible for the development (local time rate-of-change) of convective instability, wind shear, and vertical motion in areas with varying degrees of ...
