Mass loss from the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) has accelerated over the past two decades,
coincident with rapid Arctic warming and increasing moisture transport over Greenland by …

Downbursts are strong downdrafts of negatively buoyant air associated with convective
storms and are capable of producing severe near-surface winds. Microbursts and …

Thunderstorms can produce severe convective winds (SCWs) that damage buildings and
other infrastructure such as electricity transmission towers. Understanding the climatology of …

Jiangsu Province is located in the middle coastal area of East China, and has a relatively
developed economy and a large population density. Severe convection often occurs in …

The usually short lifetime of convective storms and their rapid development during unstable
weather conditions makes forecasting these storms challenging. It is necessary, therefore, to …

Based on S-band Dual polarization doppler radar data and conventional observations,
characteristics of 3 severe downbursts occurred under the background of weak vertical wind …

While cities are well documented to enhance precipitation through the urban rainfall effect
(URE), the distinguishing characteristics of urban‐influenced storms that help establish the …

Short-lived and poorly organized convective cells, often called weakly forced thunderstorms
(WFTs), are a common phenomenon during the warm season across the eastern and …

Decades of research have investigated processes that contribute to downburst
development, as well as identified precursor radar signatures that can accompany these …
