5 PREFACE The troposphere is the subtle skin of gases and vapors surrounding our planet which hosts almost all the human activities and weather phenomena. Its name comes from the ceaseless vertical mixing it experiences. The mechanism responsible for the continuous tropospheric vertical mixing is the convection. Even if the physical laws describing convection are quite well known, nevertheless our ability in understanding and forecasting convective weather phenomena is, in some cases, quite poor. The reason for that, depends on our limits in the capability of solving the Navier-Stokes equations, applied to the troposphere, and fully monitoring the actual tropospheric state. These limits are dramatically evident in areas characterized by complex orography and geography, where our knowledge of initial conditions is extremely fragmented and the constraints imposed by the boundaries make the Navier-Stokes equations even more sensitive from those initial conditions. Because of these reasons, when facing aspects related to atmospheric convection, one should reflect on the metaphor by Aldous Huxley, who imagined the relationship between Mankind and Nature as a game of chess where both players know very well the rules, but only Nature never fails neither cheats nor bluffs and the best result Mankind can obtain is a tie. Keeping this in mind, this book is meant to be a collection of information and conceptual models (the rules of the game) on deep-moist atmospheric convection, its related weather phenomena, and it presents several useful tools and techniques (the strategy of the game) not only for the prognostic activities, but even for the forecasts verification, which is fundamental to learn from our mistakes and to develop new techniques. Last but not least, by this book the authors would like to remind to the readers that if the understanding of the atmospheric convection is considered a game, as such, they should enjoy themselves carrying out this difficult, but fascinating and important activity. In this book the readers are lead along a path that starts with the basics of the atmospheric convection, in particular the dynamics and thermodynamics of unstable moist air. Then the initiation of the spontaneous vertical motions is considered and the weather phenomena related to deep-moist convection are presented. A significant part of the book is devoted to the boundary conditions of convective weather and in particular the role played by orography is examined in detail. The environments hosting convective severe weather are discussed considering their thermic, moisture and wind vorticity fields features, both from theoretical and experimental point of view. The last part of the book is focused on the specific problem of the convective severe weather forecasts and to the evaluation of their quality.
6 The book is addressed to meteorologists^ physicists and weather forecasters^ in particular to those interested in improving their knowledge of convection-related weather phenomena. Furthermore the book is considered as a valuable support for the PhD students attending courses on environmental fluid dynamics and meteorology. Each chapter is almost self consistent and there are no propaedeutic parts that the reader should consider necessary before to deal with more advanced ones. Anyway the proposed chapter sequence follows a scheme that the editors consider suitable for the didactics of the topic. The realization of the book owes much to the scientists who shared with us the CISM course from which it springs from. Special thanks are addressed to the Rectors and the Scientific Editor of CISM who gave the opportunity to organize the course since the beginning; in particular Prof. Manuel Velarde who stimulated us and supported our work throughout its development. Furthermore we are indebted with CISM personnel who helped in preparing the proofs of the book; special thanks to dr. Monica Del Pin who kindly an patiently worked with us. Dario B. Giaiotti Reinhold Steinacker Fulvio Stel
