## Abstract The relationship between the North Atlantic oscillation (NAO) and winter (November to March) convection is analysed using two convective parameters: convective precipitation (CP) and cloudโtoโground (CG) lightning. Using winter CP values from 1950 to 2000 over the North Atlantic and wes
## Abstract Although mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) are the main source of precipitation in the semiโarid Sahel region, the relationship between MCS characteristics and their generated precipitation remain unclear. However, a thorough understanding of this relation is essential to work towards
## Abstract The anvil clouds of tropical mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) in West Africa, the Maritime Continent and the Bay of Bengal have been examined with TRMM and CloudSat satellite data and ARM groundโbased radar observations. The anvils spreading out from the precipitating cores of MCSs a
