Description

This case study shows the life cycle of an upper level low over the Bay of Biscay and the Iberian Peninsula.

Content

This case study shows the life cycle of an upper level low over the Bay of Biscay and the Iberian Peninsula. Associated convective activity causes heavy precipitation and flooding in Spain.

Description

Frontal system across Europe with Wave development over South and South eastern Europe and a Front Intensification over Spain.

Content

A frontal system located over Europe shows a wave development over south and south-eastern Europe and a front intensification over Spain between 12 and 13 November 1997. Special interest is focused on convective developments within the prefrontal area and the thickness ridge over the Balkan.

Description

Arctic cold air outbreak over western Scandinavia and successive Rapid Cyclogenesis at the Lee side of the Scandinavian mountains.

Content

Arctic cold air outbreak over western Scandinavia and successive Rapid Cyclogenesis at the Lee side of the Scandinavian mountains. The further development and severe weather events are investigated under the light of frontal connected jet streaks.

Description

The chronologically changing behaviour of CMs during a cold air outbreak in the Mediterranean is the focus of interest.

Content

Case study of various CMs over Eastern Europe and a WV Eye over the Mediterranean. Chronologically changing behaviour of CMs during a cold air outbreak in the Mediterranean is the focus of interest.

Description

In this case study a Mesoscale Convective System associated to a convergence line is described.

Content

In this case study a Mesoscale Convective System associated to a convergence line is described. The zone of strong convective activity initially extends from Estonia to Russia. During the life cycle it propagates to the North and finally reaches Southern Finland and causes heavy precipitation.

Content

Typical summer time distributions of low pressure systems with associated cloud bands over Eastern, Northeastern and Southern Europe (Black Sea Low). Development of frontal parameters and weather events relevant for Scandinavia are discussed in detail.

Description

This case study discusses strong convective activity in a pre-frontal convergence line over northeastern Europe.

Content

The purpose of this study is to investigate the circumstances which caused this particular pre-frontal convergence line to develop and to compare them with those typical for the conceptual model Non-orographic Convergence Line.

Description

This case study a polar low affected north-western Europe between the 27th and 29th of January 2004.

Content

In this case a Polar Low affected North-western Europe between the 27th and 29th of January 2004. The Polar Low moved along the Norwegian coast then southwards in a northerly flow and turned over the North Sea in the direction of the German Bight. Eventually the Polar Low made landfall over the border between the northern parts of The Netherlands and Germany.
