| Zusammenfassung |
| Deep moist convection (DMC), and related hazardous phenomena, such as turbulence, lightning, wind shear, icing, hail, tornadoes, and downbursts, are particularly important in aviation. They are responsible from a big portion of aircraft accidents related to weather. A climatology of DMC in greater European domain is prepared using ICTP SPEEDY model, including its long-range variability through decades, geographical distribution, and seasonal/diurnal behaviour. Results are compared with thunderstorm observations. DMC-related hazardous weather phenomena affecting aviation are also investigated using proper proxies from model output, in order to assess the risks. |
