Understanding tornado intensity in supercells and quasi-linear convective systems
… the third part focuses on tornadoes produced by quasi-linear convective systems (QLCSs), which generally are weak and short-lived, but have a high societal impact due to their proclivity to develop over short time scales, within the cool season, and during nighttime hours. Precisely why they are …

Impacts of cold pool strength on tornado production in quasi-linear convective systems
… between cold pool strength and tornadogenesis in quasi-linear convective systems (QLCSs). Novel observations from the Verifications of the Origins of Rotations in Tornadoes Experiment-Southeast (VORTEX-SE) and Propagation, Evolution, and Rotation in Linear Storms (PERiLS) field campaigns have …

Radar and model-based studies of mesovortices in cool-season quasi-linear convective systems
Submission original under an indefinite embargo labeled 'Open Access'. The submission was exported from vireo on 2023-12-04 without embargo terms

Analyses of quasi-linear convective system tornado characteristics, environments, and genesis mechanisms
… main proposed mechanisms of tornadogenesis in quasi-linear convective systems (QLCSs), namely, tilting and stretching (T&S) and HSI and stretching (H&S). This research then sought to investigate differences and similarities between the characteristics of the T&S- and H&S- associated tornadoes …

The UK wind regime - Observational trends and extreme event analysis and modelling
… with the strongest DMGSs. The little studied UK Quasi-linear convective systems (QLCSs) and pseudo-QLCSs are found to account for 22% of the top 1% of DMGSs, with the better known Sting Jet accounting for at most 5%. This same climatology of 2008-10 ETCs then forms the basis of performance …

The observed relationship between tornado intensity and pretornadic mesocyclone characteristics and environments
… this hypothesis, especially to tornado-bearing convective morphologies such as quasi-linear convective systems (QLCSs), and within environments such as those found in the southeastern U.S. during boreal spring and autumn. A new radar dataset was assembled that focuses explicitly on the …
