Sujet de thèse (2025) : Vertical air speed in thunderstorms as seen by C2OMODO
Updrafts in convective cores varies greatly depending on the growth phase and organization of thunderstorms, reaching vertical air speed up to 200 km/h locally. This makes the vertical air speed an essential climate variable, especially in the tropics where convection is the dominant term of vertical transport. However, the vertical air speed is still very poorly known because it is little or not measured. It is thus one of the most uncertain meteorological variables in kilometer-resolution models.
