Spatial–temporal clustering of tornadoes [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2016 The standard measure of the intensity of a tornado is the Enhanced Fujita scale, which is based qualitatively on the damage caused by a tornado. An alternative measure of tornado intensity is the tornado path length, L.

Optics Letters, 2020 We show that light spiraling like a tornado can be generated by superimposing abruptly auto-focusing ring-Airy beams that carry orbital angular momentum of opposite handedness. With different parabolic propagation trajectories, the superimposing ring-Airy beams are tailored to abruptly auto-focus at overlapping focal regions. This

Climatological occurrences of hail and tornadoes associated with mesoscale convective systems in the United States [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2023 Hail and tornadoes are hazardous weather events responsible for significant property damage and economic loss worldwide. The most devastating occurrences of hail and tornadoes are commonly produced by supercells in the United States.
