Low-level curvature shear and supercell thunderstorm behavior
… is Doppler radar which is used to detect rotation over several kilometers within thunderstorms in a region known as the mesocyclone. Preliminary studies indicate the use of Doppler radar to issue tornado warnings based on mid-level mesocyclones yields a 50% false alarm rate, indicating …

Effects of environmental shear and buoyancy on simulated supercell interactions
… storm morphology. A wide amount of variation in low-level rotation is seen across the simulation suite. Two-cell storm simulations are not always stronger than one-cell control simulations. Migration of low-level vertical vorticity centers is ubiquitous through all runs, but orientation of and …

Terrain and Landcover Effects of the Southern Appalachian Mountains on the Low-Level Rotational Wind Fields of Supercell Thunderstorms
… how complex terrain may have influenced the rotational low-level wind fields of fourteen supercell thunderstorms in the Appalachians. The terrain variables include elevation, land cover, slope, and aspect. Using GIS mapping techniques, the individual storm tracks were overlaid onto elevation, …
