TL;DR: The Convective Precipitation Experiment (COPE) was a joint U.K. and U.S. field campaign held during the summer of 2013 in the southwest peninsula of England, designed to study convective clouds that produce heavy rain leading to flash floods as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: The Convective Precipitation Experiment (COPE) documented the dynamical and micro-physical evolution of convection in southwestern England for testing and improving quantitative precipitatio as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this article, a numerical simulation-environmental response function (NS-ERF) approach is presented to observing system simulation experiments that aids surface-atmosphere synthesis at the interface of mesoscale and microscale meteorology.

TL;DR: The COnvective Precipitation Experiment (COPE) was designed to investigate the origins of heavy convective precipitation over the southwestern UK, a region that experiences flash flooding due to heavy precipitation from slow-moving convective systems as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this paper, the microphysical and dynamical characteristics of developing turrets during four days in July and August, 2013 are analyzed, and high ice concentrations observed (> 100 L −1 ) are consistent with the production of secondary ice particles through the Hallett-Mossop process.
