The role of elevated terrain and the Gulf of Mexico in the production of severe local storm environments over North America
Funing Li, Daniel R. Chavas, Kevin A. Reed +2
The prevailing conceptual model for the production of severe local storm (SLS) environments over North America asserts that upstream elevated terrain and the Gulf of Mexico are bot…

Climatology of severe local storm environments and synoptic-scale features over North America in ERA5 reanalysis and CAM6 simulation
Funing Li, Daniel R. Chavas, Kevin A. Reed +1
Severe local storm (SLS) activity is known to occur within specific thermodynamic and kinematic environments. These environments are commonly associated with key synoptic-scale fea…

An idealized physical model for the severe convective storm environmental sounding
Daniel R Chavas, Daniel T Dawson
This work develops a theoretical model for steady thermodynamic and kinematic profiles for severe convective storm environments, building off of the two-layer static energy framewo…
