Abstract: Based on observational data analyses of a Madden‐Julian Oscillation (MJO) event during the field campaign of the Years of the Maritime Continent Project, we propose a new mechanism for MJO convective initiation and propagation to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1175/mwr-d-16-0395.1
Abstract: AbstractPredicting when and where individual convective storms will develop remains an elusive challenge. Previous studies have suggested that surface observations can capture convective-scale features relevant to the convective initiation (CI) process, and new surface observing… read more here.

DOI: 10.2151/jmsj.2018-041
Abstract: Convective initiation (CI) nowcasting often has a low probability of detection (POD) and a high false-alarm ratio (FAR) at subtropical regions where the warm-rain processes often occur. Using the high spatial and temporal resolution and… read more here.
