Abstract:
AbstractThe local intensity of hail can be expressed by a variety of variables, such as hail kinetic energy, maximum hailstone size, and radar reflectivity–driven algorithms. All of these variables are connected by the hailstone size distribution. In the United States, the Community Collaborative Rain, Hail and Snow Network (CoCoRaHS) provides more than 37 000 observations that describe the diameter of the smallest, average, and largest hailstone; duration of hail; and overall hailstone number density. We use these data and the assumption of an exponential hailstone size distribution aloft to

Abstract The ventilation coefficients that represent the enhancement of mass transfer rate due to the falling motion of spherical hailstones in an atmosphere of 460 hPa and 248 K are computed by numerically solving the unsteady Navier–Stokes equation for airflow past hailstones and the convective diffusion equation for water vapor diffusion around the falling hailstones. The diameters of the hailstones investigated are from 1 to 10 cm, corresponding to Reynolds number from 5935 to 177 148.

Hailstorms pose significant risk for exposed building cladding materials. Steel sheeting is the most important cladding material used. The understanding of steel sheets behavior under hail impact loading is not sufficient for the manufacturing of hail-resistant sheets.

A theoretical approach for the problem of predicting the dent size due to hailstone impact was developed and compared to the test results. The expressions deve

Several empirical models for various hailstone diameter ranges have been developed to calculate the velocity based on the diameter, indicating somewhat inconsistent results.

The asymptotic shape depends on the statistics of the hailstones, the intensity of the underlying Poisson point process, and on the geometrical properties of the zero speed set.

The model operates by detecting, tracking, and collating hailstone trajectories using dual-polarized, dual-Doppler radar retrievals.

Abstract:
We consider a queue where the server is the Euclidean space, and the customers are random closed sets (RACSs) of the Euclidean space. These RACSs arrive according to a Poisson rain and each of them has a random service time (in the case of hail falling on the Euclidean plane, this is the height of the hailstone, whereas the RACS is its footprint). The Euclidean space serves customers at speed 1. The service discipline is a hard exclusion rule: no two intersecting RACSs can be served simultaneously and service is in the first-in–first-out order, i.e. only the hailstones in contact with the grou

Abstract:
In this paper, by using lightning detection material of Beijing area, we analyzing the characteristics of lightning in four hailstorms. The results show that the mean percentage of cloud-to-ground (CG) lightning accounting for the total lightning is 8.28%, which is lower than the normal thunderstorms. On the contrary, the CG lightning has a higher proportion of positive CG than the normal thunderstorms. All cases variation trend of lightning frequency show a conspicuous intensive increase before the hail reaches the ground. The peak lightning frequency usually occurs 5 to 80min earlier than ha

Abstract:
Explicit prediction of hail using numerical weather prediction models remains a significant challenge; microphysical uncertainties and errors are a significant contributor to this challenge. This study assesses the ability of storm-scale ensemble forecasts using single-moment Lin or double-moment Milbrandt and Yau microphysical schemes in predicting hail during a severe weather event over south-central Oklahoma on 10 May 2010. Radar and surface observations are assimilated using an ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) at 5-min intervals. Three sets of ensemble forecasts, launched at 15-min intervals,

Abstract:
This study explores the relationship between climate variables to rice production in Kaski and Nawalparasi district of Nepal. The study was conducted in the year 2016. This study captured the time series data ranging from 1995 to 2014 on rice production, temperature and rainfall of two different districts and analyzed through panel data regression. Regarding primary data collection, a total of 120 sampled households were surveyed by using simple random sampling to understand the perception of farmers to change in climatic parameters using a semi-structured pre-tested questionnaire and Focus Gr
