Radar and Lightning Observations of Normal and Inverted Polarity Multicellular Storms from STEPS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study discusses radar and lightning observations of two multicellular storms observed during the Severe Thunderstorm Electrification and Precipitation Study. The Lightning Mapping Array data indicated that the charge ...
Radar and Lightning Observations of the 3 June 2000 Electrically Inverted Storm from STEPS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study addresses the kinematic, microphysical, and electrical evolution of an isolated convective storm observed on 3 June 2000 during the Severe Thunderstorm Electrification and Precipitation Study field campaign. ...
Sensitivity of a Simulated Midlatitude Squall Line to Parameterization of Raindrop Breakup
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his paper describes idealized simulations of a squall line observed on 20 June 2007, in central Oklahoma. Results are compared with measurements from dual-polarization radar and surface disdrometer. The baseline model ...
The 29 June 2000 Supercell Observed during STEPS. Part II: Lightning and Charge Structure
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This second part of a two-part study examines the lightning and charge structure evolution of the 29 June 2000 tornadic supercell observed during the Severe Thunderstorm Electrification and Precipitation Study (STEPS). ...
Improving the Representation of Hail in the Thompson Microphysics Scheme
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Parameterization of Cloud Microphysics Based on the Prediction of Bulk Ice Particle Properties. Part II: Case Study Comparisons with Observations and Other Schemes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: new microphysics scheme has been developed based on the prediction of bulk particle properties for a single ice-phase category, in contrast to the traditional approach of separating ice into various predefined species ...
The 29 June 2000 Supercell Observed during STEPS. Part I: Kinematics and Microphysics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This is a two-part study that addresses the kinematic, microphysical, and electrical aspects of a severe storm that occurred in western Kansas on 29 June 2000 observed during the Severe Thunderstorm Electrification and ...
Tornadoes from Squall Lines and Bow Echoes. Part I: Climatological Distribution
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The primary objective of this study was to estimate the percentage of U.S. tornadoes that are spawned annually by squall lines and bow echoes, or quasi-linear convective systems (QLCSs). This was achieved by examining radar ...
Polarimetric Radar Analysis of Raindrop Size Variability in Maritime and Continental Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: uring the Queensland Cloud Seeding Research Program, the ?CP2? polarimetric radar parameter differential radar reflectivity Zdr was used to examine the raindrop size evolution in both maritime and continental clouds. The ...
An Assessment of Winter Orographic Precipitation and Cloud-Seeding Potential in Wyoming
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
