Modeling the sorting of sediments on delta tops
Sediment sorting in fluvial rivers produces great variation in the grain-size of deposit over the length of a river. Knowledge of the pattern of sediment deposition may help to shed light on the processes that sort by grain size. A simple geometric model was developed to predict the location of the …

Estimating midlevel updraft characteristics and severe weather intensity through the lens of overshooting tops
… using coincident observations of (overshooting tops) OTs and updrafts collected in three cases during the RELAMPAGO field campaign in Córdoba province, Argentina. The RELAMPAGO data revealed that different convective morphologies had different OT characteristics, with long-lived, large OTs found …
