Wang [\u2026] has used very high-resolution cloud models to simulate the processes at the top of convective storms. Simulations showed that overshooting tops act as obstacles to the anvil-relative wind. Thus, most of the storm top features that we observe from a satellite, such as cold rings, cold-Us, or above-anvil cirrus plumes result from the interaction between overshooting tops and the ambient flow.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>ESSL is a European research and development consortium, aimed at promoting the science of severe storms and advancing forecast techniques through academic research and technology development. Its current membership consists of 23 meteorological science\/tech institutions from 17 countries.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/newsletter.sinica.edu.tw/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/1-1_E-1024x615.jpg\" alt=\"Academia Sinica Academician Pao K.
