Abstract:Hailstorm processes are studied using multiparameter radar observations of thundetorm evolution. The storm turned out to be of hybrid type, having both multicellular (oscillatory nature of hail production) and supercellular (quasi-steady state of basic dynamics) characteristics. Its reflectively fied showed a V-like pattern

The 'pseudostorm' is an idealized thunderstorm representation and emulates the storm-relative flow, into an updraft, of the horizontal streamwise vorticity that is baroclinically generated in cold air outflow.

Abstract:One of the distinguishing characteristics of a supercell thunderstorm is the presence of a rotating updraft. During the past 30 years, various hypotheses have been proposed to explain the initiation and maintenance of rotation. However, attempts to veryify the initiation process have been frustrated by the lack of multiple-Doppler radar measurements at the time that the first rotating updraft appears.

Title:The 29 June 2000 supercell observed during STEPS. Part I: Kinematics and microphysics
Publication:J. Atmos. Sci., 62, 4127-4150.
Abstract:This is a two-part study that addresses the kinematic, microphysical, and electrical aspects of a severe storm that occurred in western Kansas on 29 June 2000 observed during the Severe Thunderstorm Electrification and Precipitation Study (STEPS) field campaign.

Title:The Role of Forcing in Cell Morphology and Evolution within Midlatitude Squall Lines
Publication:Mon. Wea. Rev., 134, 3714-3734.
Abstract:This study assesses the role of mesoscale forcing on cell morphology and early evolution of midlatitude squall lines. The forcing chosen was a cold front, simulated to frontal collapse to produce a specific set of thermodynamic profiles at the leading edge of the front.

Title:Discrete Propagation in Numerically Simulated Nocturnal Squall Lines
Publication:Mon. Wea. Rev., 134, 3735-3752.
Abstract:Simulations of a typical midlatitude squall line were used to investigate a mechanism for discrete propagation, defined as convective initiation ahead of an existing squall line leading to a faster propagation speed for the storm complex.

Title:Near-Surface Intensification of Tornado Vortices
Publication:Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 64, 2176-2194.
Abstract:An idealized analytical model and numerical large-eddy simulations are used to explore fluid-dynamic mechanisms by which tornadoes may be intensified near the surface relative to conditions aloft.

Title:Near-Surface Vortex Intensification through Corner Flow Collapse
Publication:J. Atmos. Sci., 64, 2195-2209.
Abstract:Results are presented from a large set of large-eddy simulations of a class of unsteady vortex evolution that may sometimes play a role in tornadogenesis or tornado variability.
