Abstract :
The exploration of mesoscale convective systems (MCS) is a vital aspect of meteorology, particularly in
understanding and predicting severe weather events. The automated identification of rain cells within MCS can significantly
enhance the precision of weather forecasts. Recent advancements have led to the development of algorithms like the
Tracking Algorithm for Mesoscale Convective System (TAMS), which employs area-overlapping and projected-cloud-edge
tracking techniques to identify and track MCS with greater accuracy. Additionally, the integration of deep learning models,
such as the deep Convolutional Neural Network for the Identification of Mesoscale Convective System (MesCoSNet), has
shown promise in Identifying mMCS from satellite data. These innovative approaches, utilizing infrared imagery and
meteorological data, are crucial for early warning systems, which can save lives and reduce economic losses by providing
timely alerts for severe weather conditions. The ongoing research in this field aims to unravel the complex interplay between
various atmospheric parameters and the dynamics of rain cell formation, ultimately contributing to a more comprehensive
understanding of weather patterns and MCS behavior.
