Squall Line with Mesoscale Convective Vortex

Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR

The evolution of a squall line with a mesoscale convective vortex is modeled here using the Klemp-Wilhelmson numerical algorithm.

Description

The circulation patterns around the storm along with the interaction of rain, cloud water, and potential temperature are simulated.The images and animations shown here represent visualizations of a squall line with a mesoscale convective vortex (MCV) using data generated by the Klemp-Wilhelmson numerical model.

The model is initialized with 5 storm cells along a 160 kilometer long line. The squall line is evolving in an environment of moderate vertical windshear with winds increasing by 20 m/s between the ground and 2.5 KM above ground.
