On the sensitivity of convective cold pools to mesh resolution

R Fiévet, B Meyer, JO Haerter - Journal of Advances in …, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
It is well recognized that triggering of convective cells through cold pools (CPs) is key to the
organization of convection. Yet, numerous studies have found that both the characterization …

Direct radiative effects in haboobs

J Bukowski, SC van den Heever - Journal of Geophysical …, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
Convective dust storms, or haboobs, form when strong surface winds loft loose soils in
convective storm outflow boundaries. Haboobs are a public safety hazard and can cause a …
