Significant Variations of Radiosonde Ascent Rates Observed Above a Severe Tornadic Thunderstorm

Lane, et al (2003) examined radiosonde data and showed that changes in the radiosonde ascent rate can be caused by gravity waves generated by nearby thunderstorms. A preliminary report by Blackmore and Kardell (2012) examined more than a dozen cases of radiosonde ascent rates above 20 km where there were strong variations in ascent rate. Gravity waves induced by severe thunderstorms were suspected as a common cause for them.

Abstract

Lane, et al (2003) examined radiosonde data and showed that changes in the radiosonde ascent rate can be caused by gravity waves generated by nearby thunderstorms. A preliminary report by Blackmore and Kardell (2012) examined more than a dozen cases of radiosonde ascent rates above 20 km where there were strong variations in ascent rate. Gravity waves induced by severe thunderstorms were suspected as a common cause for them.
