Description
EUPHEMISMS Consolidation. The previous EUPHEMISMS/EUPHEMISMS_FO, other WCSSP-India projects, have led to important findings about how convective storms evolve over India during the monsoon season. Knowledge and techniques gained from those studies will be employed in EUPHEMISMS_CO. The researchers have already developed a catalogue of CIs by applying the CI detection algorithm (Chug et al., 2023) to the infrared brightness product of the MERGIR dataset for a larger domain than was considered in EUPHEMISMS_FO. They will use this catalogue to first demonstrate how the location and diurnal cycle of CIs vary over different parts of India, and then uncover the relationship between soil moisture and CIs. They will also demonstrate how CIs and their relationship with soil moisture vary as the monsoon evolves. The results of this work will be consolidated into a journal paper.
