Meteotsunamis are generated by meteorological events, particularly moving pressure disturbances due to squalls, thunderstorms, frontal passages and atmospheric gravity waves. Relatively small initial sea-level perturbations, of the order of a few centimetres, can increase significantly through multi-resonant phenomena to create destructive events through the superposition of different factors. ...

Abstract Extreme wind gusts cause major socioeconomic damage, and the rarity localised nature of those events make their analysis challenging by either modelling or empirical approaches. A 23-year long data record from 29 automatic weather stations located in New South Wales (eastern Australia) is used to study distribution, frequency average recurrence intervals (ARIs) extreme via a peaks-over...

thunderstorm is one of the most dangerous phenomena in aviation because the greatest number weather hazards such as icing, turbulence, wind shear, lightning hail are combined in one single source, the thunderstorm. spatial characteristics of thunderstorms which can be associated with irreparable outcomes are known by most of the forecasters. tornadoes, microbursts, very strong winds and flash f...

Thunderstorms over the Tibetan Plateau (TP), Central and Eastern China (CEC), southern foothills of Himalayas (SHF), have correlations between lightning flash rate size disagreeing with previously published negative correlation in thunderstorms different dynamics. There is a positive when comparing TP CEC thunderstorms. Compared SHF thunderstorms, much lower similar size. It explored that weake...

The offered approach is based on the establishment of the functional dependence between river water discharge (Q) and suspended ms ,in a number of observations, which noticeably differs from the mean value (R) of subsequent allocated period(s). The earliest period anthropogenic component during the subsequent period(s) is the difference between an actual suspended sediment yield and its hypothe...

Extreme weather phenomena such as wind gusts, heavy precipitation, hail, thunderstorms, tornadoes, and many others usually occur when there is a change in air mass the passing of front over certain region. The climatology fronts difficult, since they are drawn onto maps manually by forecasters; therefore, data concerning them limited process itself very subjective nature. In this article, we pr...

In 2015, the Gamma-Ray Observation of Winter Thunderstorms (GROWTH) collaboration launched a mapping observation campaign for high-energy atmospheric phenomena related to thunderstorms and lightning discharges. This has developed detection network gamma rays with up 10 radiation monitors installed in cities Kanazawa Komatsu, Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan, where low-charge-center winter frequently ...
