Geometrical Properties of Hydrometeors during the Refreezing Process and Their Effects on Dual-Polarized Radar Signals
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis paper describes an observational study for the geometrical properties of hydrometeors during a refreezing process initiated by a winter storm in the northern Kanto Plain, Japan, on 29 January 2016, in which a ...
The Tornadic Supercell on the Kanto Plain on 6 May 2012: Polarimetric Radar and Surface Data Assimilation with EnKF and Ensemble-Based Sensitivity Analysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: tornadic supercell and associated low-level mesocyclone (LMC) observed on the Kanto Plain, Japan, on 6 May 2012 were predicted with a nonhydrostatic mesoscale model with a horizontal resolution of 350 m through assimilation ...
Important Factors for Tornadogenesis as Revealed by High-Resolution Ensemble Forecasts of the Tsukuba Supercell Tornado of 6 May 2012 in Japan
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractTo identify important factors for supercell tornadogenesis, 33-member ensemble forecasts of the supercell tornado that struck the city of Tsukuba, Japan, on 6 May 2012 were conducted using a mesoscale numerical ...
Finescale Doppler Radar Observation of a Tornado and Low-Level Misocyclones within a Winter Storm in the Japan Sea Coastal Region
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Life histories of low-level misocyclones, one of which corresponded to a tornado vortex within a winter storm in the Japan Sea coastal region on 1 December 2007, were observed from close range by X-band Doppler radar of ...
