Lightning‐Produced Nitrogen Oxides Per Flash Length Obtained by Using TROPOMI Observations and the Ebro Lightning Mapping Array

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Lightning is one of the main sources of NOx in the Earth's atmosphere. However, there is a large variability in NOx production during the lifetime of thunderstorms.

Unique lightning activities pertinent to tropical and temperate thunderstorms

open access: yes, 2011
Observations from two geographical locations show that some lightning events are unique and specific to the respective thunderstorms. From the measurements conducted in a tropical country, Sri Lanka, and a temperate country, Sweden, it is observed that ...

Characterisation of Thunderstorms with Multiple Lightning Jumps

open access: yes, 2022
Several works have shown that lightning jumps are precursors of severe weather in deep-convective thunderstorms. Since 2017, the Meteorological Service of Catalonia has operationally run an algorithm that identifies lightning jumps (LJs) in real time. It

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.

Robust aircraft trajectory planning under uncertain convective environments with optimal control and rapidly developing thunderstorms

open access: yesAerospace Science and Technology, 2019
Convective weather, and thunderstorm development in particular, represents a major source of disruption, delays and safety hazards in the Air Traffic Management system.

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

Weather Attention in Online Discourse and Price Uncertainty in Agricultural Futures Markets

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Weather is a central determinant of production risk in agricultural markets, but markets respond not only to weather conditions themselves, but also to how those conditions are noticed, framed, and interpreted in public discourse. In this setting, real‐time online weather discussions may shape price uncertainty by influencing how market ...

Situational Awareness about Thunderstorms On-board an Aircraft [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Thunderstorms are top-ranked by pilots as weather situations compromising the flight safety. The information for pilots about adverse weather like thunderstorms today is, if at all, based on significant weather charts. Such services, however, do not give

Climate‐Related Risk Factors and Banks' Operational Risk: The Case of Italian Significant Institutions

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates significant Italian banks' exposure to climate‐related physical risks from the perspective of operational risk. Focusing on acute physical risks, proxied by floods and storms, the analysis adopts a microeconomic and spatial perspective to assess how the territorial distribution of banks' branches at the provincial ...

Nitrogen Oxides from Thunderstorms - Results from Experiments over Europe and the Continental Tropics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Deep convection causes thunderstorms with lightning. In this paper we summarise the nitrogen oxides results obtained from the recent measurements over Brazil within the experiment TROCCINOX and compare the results with the results from EULINOX and its ...
