Interactions between convection and the background atmosphere during high rain events: observations and comparisons with models

The thesis consists of three projects. Each of these projects is a diagnostic study of the interaction between strong convective events and the background atmosphere. In all projects, we use a satellite rainfall dataset to identify strong rain events. We then use radiosonde soundings to generate com...
