Cloud‐resolving model intercomparison of an MC3E squall line case: Part I—Convective updrafts (2017, background): “A key aspect of squall-line organization and maintenance is the balance between the cold pool strength and low-level environmental wind shear [e.g., Rotunno et al., 1988;Weisman and Rotunno, 2004; Bryan et al., 2006; Takemi, 2007].”
Mechanisms for convection triggering by cold pools (2015, background): “w-level wind shear, as is typically the case in organized systems like multicellstormsorsqualllines[see,forexample,KnuppandCotton,1982;RotunnoandKlemp,1985;Rotunno et al., 1988; Weisman et al., 1988; Weisman and Rotunno, 2004] or could be caused by the collision of two cold pools [e.g., Droegemeier ”
Surface Characteristics of Observed Cold Pools (2008, background): “…with results from idealized numerical simulations of MCSs, upon which many widely discussed theories for squall-line behavior are founded (see Weisman and Rotunno 2004, 2005; Parker and Johnson 2004a; Stensrud et al. 2005; Coniglio et al. 2006), suggests that MCS cold pools are often colder…”
Effects of Upper-Level Shear on the Structure and Maintenance of Strong Quasi-Linear Mesoscale Convective Systems (2006, background): “…to understand the physical connection between the environmental vertical wind shear, usually the low-level shear, and the behavior of these types of MCSs (Thorpe et al. 1982; Rotunno et al. 1988; Weisman et al. 1988; Moncrieff and Liu 1999; Coniglio and Stensrud 2001; Weisman and Rotunno 2004).”
Impact of Cloud Microphysics on the Development of Trailing Stratiform Precipitation in a Simulated Squall Line: Comparison of One- and Two-Moment Schemes (2009, background): “Changes in the interaction between the cold pool and ambient wind shear with the reduced latent cooling may also impact the intensity and character of the convective updrafts (Rotunno et al. 1988; Weisman and Rotunno 2004).”
