Journal ArticleDOI
Cumulus dynamics: Local compensating subsidence and its implications for cumulus parameterization
TL;DR: In this paper, a conceptual three-dimensional model of midlatitude organized convection along with its implications for parameterization, particularly in mesoscale modeling, is presented, and the effects of moist downdrafts are also considered.

Multiple Doppler radar observations of storms
Peter S. Ray,Kit K. Wagner +1 more
TL;DR: The use of radar to infer dynamical structure from storms is currently being extended by several research groups by employing two or more coherent radars positioned to allow construction of the three-dimensional wind field.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sources and Detection of Atmospheric Wind Shear
TL;DR: In this article, a range of phenomena producing significant atmospheric wind shears, providing more details on the shears related to thunderstorm gust fronts, are discussed. But the authors focus on the detection of wind shear in the lees of mountains.

Internal Airflow of a Convective Storm from Dual-Doppler Radar Measurements
TL;DR: In this article, the internal airflow and radar reflectivity structure of a convective storm was determined using the dual-Doppler radar coplane method of scanning and data reduction, and the absence of significant cold air outflow and its attendant gust front at the surface was attributed to the appreciable inflow of slow moving air into the downdraft at the middle layers and the fact that the potentially coldest air was located too low to contribute significantly to a deep downdRAFT circulation.

Severe storms and storm systems: Scientific background, methods, and critical questions
TL;DR: The structure and dynamics of severe convective storms and their mesoscale environments are described on the basis of current literature in this paper, where numerical modeling of regional and cloud-scale meteorology is reviewed with respect to its contribution to the understanding of convective storm evolution.
