Towards objective identification and tracking of convective outflow boundaries in next-generation geostationary satellite imagery

<p>Sudden wind direction and speed shifts from outflow boundaries (OFBs) associated with deep convection significantly affect weather in the lower troposphere. Specific OFB impacts include rapid variation in wildfire spread rate and direction, the formation of convection, aviation hazards, and...
