A MOBILE RADAR BASED CLIMATOLOGY OF SUPERCELL TORNADO STRUCTURES AND DYNAMICS
(2010)
Fine-scale-resolution mobile radar observations of supercell tornadoes have been collected by the Doppler On Wheels (DOWs) platform between 1995 and 2010. The result of this ongoing effort is a large observational database ...
OBSERVATIONS OF SUPERCELL TORNADO EVOLUTION USING A MOBILE, RAPID-SCAN, X-BAND RADAR
(2013)
On 24 May 2011, a series of supercell thunderstorms and violent tornadoes tore through central Oklahoma. A mobile, rapid-scan, X-band, polarimetric, Doppler radar (RaXPol), collected data from one of those storms as it ...
Multiple Cyclic Tornado Production Modes in the 5 May 2007 Greensburg, Kansas Supercell Storm
(2011)
Long-track, violent tornadoes are rare events, but are responsible for a disproportionate majority of tornado fatalities, injuries, and property damage. It has been observed that such tornadoes are often generated as part ...
ON THE FURTHER STUDIES OF SUITABLE STORM-SCALE 3DVAR DATA ASSIMILATION FOR THE PREDICTION OF TORNADIC THUNDERSTORMS
(2011)
Storm-scale 3DVAR data assimilation and NWP for the prediction of tornadic supercell thunderstorms still faces many challenges. Some fundamental issues are still not thoroughly (or explicitly) investigated. To name a few: ...

Long-track, violent tornadoes are rare events, but are responsible for a disproportionate majority of tornado fatalities, injuries, and property damage. It has been observed that such tornadoes are often generated as part ...
Mobile, Phased-Array, Doppler Radar Observations of Tornadoes at X Band
(2012)
Previous studies of tornadoes have utilized high-spatial-resolution data obtained by mobile Doppler radars to better understand phenomena that occur on small spatial scales. There has not been a similar focus on using ...
