This analysis reveals significant impacts of low-level wind shear on aviation safety, indicating critical convergence zones.

The wind shear event lasted about 30 minutes and triggered changes in wind direction affecting aviation safety.
Peak wind speeds of 18 m/s were recorded, creating multiple radial velocity couplets related to convective downdrafts.
High-resolution simulations using the WRF model showed strong agreement with observational data on wind behavior.
The study highlights the importance of integrating multiple observation sources for timely wind shear detection.

Gu et al. (2025) studied this question.
