The structure and evolution of deeply developed convective cells within a long-lived multicellular cumulonimbus cloud that developed over the Huaihe River Basin in China on 13 July 1998 during the GAME/HUBEX were studied, mainly using the observational data of Doppler radars. The lifetime of the cum...
