False Alarm Causes and Wind Field Sensitivity Analysis of a Severe Rainfall Event in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Urban Cluster by Lan Zhang, Jiawen Zheng, Huaiyu Li, Rui Yu, Lei Wei, Yufei Zhang

“…The results indicate that the warm and moist airflow transported by the low-level jet stream was intercepted by the upstream MCS (mesoscale convective system) along the coastal area of western Guangdong, and inadequate conditions of negative vorticity dynamics led to insufficient moisture, thermodynamic, and dynamic conditions over the urban cluster, preventing the triggering of heavy precipitation. …”

Discriminating between “drizzle or rain” and sea salt aerosols in Cloudnet for measurements over the Barbados Cloud Observatory by J. Roschke, J. Witthuhn, J. Witthuhn, M. Klingebiel, M. Haarig, A. Foth, A. Kötsche, H. Kalesse-Los

“…<p>The highly sensitive Ka-band cloud radar at the Barbados Cloud Observatory (BCO) frequently reveals radar reflectivity signals below <span class="inline-formula">−</span>50 dBZ within the convective sub-cloud layer. These so-called haze echoes are signals from hygroscopically grown sea salt aerosols. …”

An engineering model for creeping flame spread over idealized electrical wires in microgravity by Coimbra, Alain, Li, Yutao, Guibaud, Augustin, Citerne, Jean-Marie, Legros, Guillaume, Consalvi, Jean-Louis

“…The flame spread rate (FSR) is controlled by two model parameters, which are measurable from intrinsic material and ambient gas properties: the convective flame heat flux transferred to the solid ahead from the flame front and the gaseous thermal heat length near the flame front. …”

Large Scale Experiments Representing a Containment Natural Circulation Loop during an Accident Scenario by R. Kapulla, G. Mignot, S. Paranjape, M. Andreani, D. Paladino

“…During normal operation these zones are separated and in the case of an accident they become either connected by the opening of rupture disks, convective foils, and dampers or connected by bursting of doors and opening of other connections between compartments. …”

A Study of NOAA-20 VIIRS Band M1 (0.41 µm) Striping over Clear-Sky Ocean by Wenhui Wang, Changyong Cao, Slawomir Blonski, Xi Shao

“…HAM-side and detector-dependent striping correction factors were analyzed using deep convective cloud (DCC) observations (low gain, high radiances) and verified over the homogeneous Libya-4 desert site (low gain, mid-level radiance); neither are significantly affected by the polarization effect. …”
