Scientific paper

This paper examines variations in multifractal properties of evolving mesoscale convective systems over tropical South America using infrared satellite images and a tracking technique. It is shown that multifractal coefficients have diurnal variation and seem to be modulated by intraseasonal low-level circulations. This remote sensing approach has potential application to infer convective-scale processes occurring in individual mesoscale systems.
