RISWRF Model Simulations of the Influence of the Athabasca Oil Sands Development on Convective Storms
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe Athabasca oil sands development has created a land surface disturbance of almost 900 km2 in northeastern Alberta. Both through industrial processes and the removal of boreal forest vegetation, this surface ...

Abstract: The 2008 Atlantic hurricane season is summarized and the year?s tropical cyclones are described. Sixteen named storms formed in 2008. Of these, eight became hurricanes with five of them strengthening into major hurricanes ...
An Evaluation of Dvorak Technique–Based Tropical Cyclone Intensity Estimates
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The satellite-based Dvorak technique (DVKT) is the most widely available and readily used tool for operationally estimating the maximum wind speeds associated with tropical cyclones. The DVKT itself produces internally ...
Tropical Cyclone Formation Guidance Using Pregenesis Dvorak Climatology. Part I: Operational Forecasting and Predictive Potential
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: hile there are a variety of modes for tropical cyclone (TC) development, there have been relatively few efforts to systematically catalog both nondeveloping and developing cases. This paper introduces an operationally ...
