Abstract:
Six thunderstorms that occurred at the NASA Kennedy Space Center, Florida, have been studied in an attempt to characterize their electrical structure and electrification. Ground-based measurements of the cloud electric fields, the locations of lightning VHF radio sources, cloud-to-ground lightning strike points, and dual-polarization radar data were used in this study. Changes in the electric field due to lightning were used to determine the locations and magnitudes of changes in cloud charge. The fields themselves were used to compute displacement current densities following lightning flashes

Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited.<br>Thunderstorms are a significant factor in the planning and execution of Defense (DoD) operations in Afghanistan, especially in the spring and summer. Skillful forecasting of Afghanistan thunderstorms has proven difficult, even at relatively short lead times of 24 hours or less. This has led to adverse effects on a wide range of DoD missions. One potential reason for the forecasting difficulties is a lack of understanding of the conditions that lead to static instability and thunderstorms in the elevated desert mountain environment that

The results indicate that the temporal and spatial behavior of the Q- and P- model parameters are similar to those reported previously by Koshak and Krider [1989].

Abstract:
The characteristic wind field of a certain region is mostly governed by the climatology of its larger scale area. In the case of mid-latitude regions (e.g. Europe), their climatology is determined by the extra-tropical cyclones at the larger synoptic scale. Atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) winds based on synoptic-scale structures are hence considered as the foundation for codes and standards used to assess the wind loading of structures and to design structures to prevent wind-related damage accordingly. In addition to the ABL winds, the mid-latitude regions are also prone to winds of a non-sy
