Drylines over the interior of subtropical southern Africa by Van Schalkwyk, Lynette

“…Drylines regularly form over the interior of subtropical southern Africa and have also been associated with thunderstorm development and often severe thunderstorm initiation, but their seasonal characteristics, formation mechanisms and the extent to which they influence convection, are largely unknown. By utilizing ERA5 reanalysis surface specific humidity and temperature data and an objective moisture and temperature gradient detection algorithm, a drylines dataset is compiled between 1979 and 2020 for the subtropical southern African interior plateau (SAP). …”
