Abstract: Asymmetric structure of tropical cyclones simulated by the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory high-resolution triply nested movable-mesh hurricane model was analyzed. Emphasis was placed on the quasi-steady component ...

Abstract: A scheme is presented for improving the previously proposed method of dynamic initialization of the boundary layer in a primitive equation model (Kurihara and Tuleya, 1978). Performance of the revised scheme is shown for ...

Abstract: The mesh nesting strategy proposed by Kurihara et al.(1979) was used to construct a movable, nested-mesh, 11-level primitive equation model. The framework of the model is described in detail. With the use of a triply nested ...

Abstract: A numerical scheme to treat the open lateral boundary of a limited-area primitive equation model was formulated. Although overspecification of the boundary condition is inevitable in the pointwise boundary setting, the ...

Abstract: In order to investigate the effect of tropical cyclone?ocean interaction on the intensity of observed hurricanes, the GFDL movable triply nested mesh hurricane model was coupled with a high-resolution version of the Princeton ...

Abstract: A scheme is presented to improve the representation of a tropical cyclone in the initial condition of a high-resolution hurricane model. In the proposed method, a crudely resolved tropical cyclone in the large-scale analysis ...

Abstract: The Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) Hurricane Prediction System was adopted by the U.S. National Weather Service as an operational hurricane prediction model in the 1995 hurricane season. The framework of the ...

Abstract: A numerical scheme to construct a two-way, movable, nested-mesh primitive equation model is proposed. Dynamical coupling in a two-way nesting system is performed at a dynamical interface which is separated from a mesh ...

Abstract: A triply nested, movable mesh model was used to study the behavior of tropical cyclones encountering island mountain ranges. The integration domain consisted of a 37° wide and 45° long channel, with an innermost mesh ...

Abstract: By use of a triply nested, movable mesh model, several ideal simulations OF tropical Cyclone landfall were performed for a strong zonal flow of ?10 m s-1. The integration domain was a 37 ? 45° channel with the innermost ...
