TL;DR: The Bow Echo and Mesoscale Convective Vortex Experiment (BAMEX) as mentioned in this paper is a research investigation using highly mobile platforms to examine the life cycles of mesoscale convective systems.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that if the wintertime Arctic polar stratospheric vortex is distorted, either by waves propagating upward from the troposphere or by eastward-travelling Stratospheric waves, then there is a concomitant redistribution of stratosphere potential vorticity which induces perturbations in keymeteorological fields in the upper troposphere.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of latent heating on the structure and evolution of three simulated extratropical cyclones was analyzed by combining traditional sensitivity studies with techniques that focus on the conservation and invertibility properties of Ertel's potential vorticity (PV).

TL;DR: In this article, a large-domain explicit convection simulation is used to investigate the life cycle of nocturnal convection for a one-week period of successive zonally propagating heavy precipitation episodes occurring over the central United States.

TL;DR: This paper examined whether these propagating signals are found in two numerical weather prediction (NWP) models commonly used today, namely, the Eta Model from the National Centers for Environmental Prediction and the newly developed Weather Research and Forecast (WRF) model.
