Abstract
The effects of vertical wind shear and buoyancy on convective storm structure and evolution are investigated with the use of a three-dimensional numerical cloud model. By varying the magnitude of buoyant energy and one-directional vertical shear over a wide range of environmental conditions associated with severe storms, the model is able to produce a spectrum of storm types qualitatively similar to those observed in nature.-from Authors
