Diurnal march of the convection observed during TRMM-WETAMC/LBA : Large-scale biosphere-atmosphere experiment in Amazonia (LBA)

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the diurnal cycle of the tropical convection in Amazonia using radar 2 km constant altitude plan position indicator (CAPPI) and rainfall collected from the TRMM-Wet Season Atmospheric Mesoscale Campaign (WETAMC)/Large-Scale Biosphere-Atmosphere (LBA) Experiment in Amazonias.

Severe convection in the Mediterranean from microwave observations

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated severe convection in the Mediterranean during the first Special Observation Period (SOP-1; 5 September to 6 November 2012) of the Hydrological Cycle in Mediterranean Experiment (HyMeX) with the objectives of providing novel information about convection on its vertical structure, spatio-temporal variability as well as evaluating the ability of a convectionpermitting model to reproduce this variability.

Impact of Lightning Data Assimilation on the Short-Term Precipitation Forecast over the Central Mediterranean Sea

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focused on the impact of LDA on the precipitation forecast over the central Mediterranean Sea around Italy, using the 3H rapid update cycle (RUC) configuration of the weather research and forecasting (WRF) model.

Global view of the origin of tropical disturbances and storms

TL;DR: A global observational study of atmospheric conditions associated with tropical disturbance and storm development is presented in this article, which primarily uses upper air observations which have become available over the tropical oceans in the last decade.

The Diurnal Cycle in the Tropics

TL;DR: In this article, a global archive of high-resolution (3-hourly, 0.58 latitude-longitude grid) window (11-12 mm) brightness temperature (Tb) data from multiple satellites is developed by the European Union Cloud Archive User Service (CLAUS) project.

Effects of Vertical Wind Shear on the Intensity and Structure of Numerically Simulated Hurricanes

TL;DR: In this article, a series of numerical simulations of tropical cyclones in idealized large-scale environments is performed to examine the effects of vertical wind shear on the structure and intensity of hurricanes.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Effect of Vertical Shear on Tropical Cyclone Intensity Change

TL;DR: In this article, a simple two-layer diagnostic balance model is used to provide an alternate explanation of the effect of vertical shear on tropical cyclone intensity change, where heat and moisture at upper levels are advected away from the low-level circulation, which inhibits development.

Diurnal variation and life‐cycle of deep convective systems over the tropical pacific warm pool

TL;DR: In this paper, the diurnal variations of deep convection in two distinct large-scale flow regimes over the western Pacific warm pool were examined using satellite infrared data and in situ surface measurements from the Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere Response Experiment (TOGA CORE).
