Early detection and tracking of supercells can significantly improve safety during severe weather events, especially tornadoes.
Using Doppler radar, mesocyclones were detected with enhanced accuracy based on radial velocity fields in thunderstorms.
The development involved creating a national database of severe convection events, tracking their evolution over time.
Findings indicate that the upgraded database assists in both nowcasting and forecasting convective cell behavior during thunderstorms.
