Summary
Characterising the hazard, structure and impacts of convective wind storms. This project aims to characterise probabilistically the severe convective wind storm risk (thunderstorm and tornado) to Australia under current and future climates. This will be achieved using a new coupled analysis-simulation based approach to wind hazard analysis. It will also characterise the complex wind structure within these wind storms by integrating three-dimensional data from novel high-resolution observation ne ....Characterising the hazard, structure and impacts of convective wind storms. This project aims to characterise probabilistically the severe convective wind storm risk (thunderstorm and tornado) to Australia under current and future climates. This will be achieved using a new coupled analysis-simulation based approach to wind hazard analysis. It will also characterise the complex wind structure within these wind storms by integrating three-dimensional data from novel high-resolution observation networks into a unifying wind field model. The project aims to generate the requisite information that allows convective wind storms to be explicitly accounted for in national and international wind-resistant design standards, thus acting to mitigate the devastating impacts of future events.Read moreRead less
