The study aims to assess the applicability of the current Meso-NH electrical scheme
(CELLS) in the investigation of forest fire ignition. Therefore, the challenge is to diagnose …

In numerical weather prediction models, point thunderstorm forecasts tend to have little
predictive value beyond a few hours. Thunderstorms are difficult to predict due largely to …

This study aims at simulating satellite-measured lightning observations with numerical
weather prediction (NWP) system variables. A total of eight parameters, calculated with the …

For several decades, warming-induced fires have been widespread in many forest systems.
A forest fire could be a potential indicator, since the Great **ng'an Range is susceptible to …

The Lightning Imager (LI) onboard the Meteosat Third Generation (MTG) satellites will
provide total lightning observations continuously over Europe with a spatial resolution of a …

This study develops a lightning data assimilation (LDA) scheme for the regional, convection-
permitting numerical weather prediction (NWP) model AROME-France. The LDA scheme …

Cloud vertical structure (CVS) strongly affects atmospheric circulation and radiative transfer.
Yet, long-term, ground-based observations are scarce over the Tibetan Plateau (TP) despite …

The accurate prediction of lightning is crucial for forecasters to respond effectively to its
related hazards. The rapid development and confined spatial extent of convective storms, in …

Characteristics of a thunderstorm cloud, from which a waterspout over Ladoga Lake
appeared are studied with the use of the measurements from C-band Doppler …

Thunderstorms are a common natural phenomenon posing significant hazards to power
systems, structures, and humans. With technological advancements, protection against …
