Adding to Fire Fighter Safety by Including Real-Time Radar Data in Short-Range Forecasts of Thunderstorm-Induced Wind Shifts

open access: yesFire, 2021
Abrupt changes in wind direction and speed caused by thunderstorm-generated gust fronts can, within a few seconds, transform slow-spreading low-intensity flanking fires into high-intensity head fires.

Simulation on the development progress of positive glow corona discharge from ground wire of AC/DC transmission lines under thunderstorm condition

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, 2019
In thunderstorm weather, lightning induction appears on the surface of ground objects, and then the positive glow corona is initiated, which influences the selection of lighting targets by lighting leader.

Differences in microphysical structures between continental and oceanic thunderstorms: a GPM/DPR-based comparison

open access: yesnpj Climate and Atmospheric Science
Although the disparities in lightning activity between continental and oceanic thunderstorms have been widely investigated from thermodynamic, dynamic, and aerosol perspectives, their hydrometeor characteristics remain inadequately understood. This study

On the spatial and temporal distribution of global thunderstorm cells

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2014
Estimates of global thunderstorm activity have been made predominately by direct measurements of lightning discharges around the globe, either by optical measurements from satellites, or using ground-based radio antennas.
