A Climatological Study of Western Mediterranean Medicanes in Numerical Simulations with Explicit and Parameterized Convection

The semi-enclosed Mediterranean basin, surrounded by high mountains, is placed in a favorable location for cyclonic storms development. Most of these are extratropical cyclones of baroclinic and orographic origin, but occasionally, some low pressure systems may develop to assume features characteris...
