Abstract: The roles of terrain in the convection initiations (CIs) under weak synoptic forcing remain unclear. Take as an example an extreme rainfall event on the eastern slope of Wushan mountain and nearby regions on 25… read more here.

Abstract: Synoptic-scale weather systems are often responsible for initiating mesoscale convective systems (MCSs). Here, we explore how synoptic forcing influences MCS characteristics, such as the maximum size, lifespan, cloud-top height, propagation speed, and triggering over the… read more here.
