Line-shaped Mesoscale Convective Systems in Northern Japan: Climatology and Predictive Diagnostics
This study presented a statistical analysis of line-shaped mesoscale convective systems (LS-MCSs, called “Senjo-Kousuitai”, Kato 2020) in northern Japan using a 64-year high-resolution reanalysis dataset. A significant increase in LS-MCSs frequency and rainfall intensity is identified, particularly along the Pacific si...
