Abstract: n this study, the predictability of tropical cyclogenesis (TCG) is explored by conducting ensemble sensitivity analyses on the TCG of Hurricane Julia (2010). Using empirical orthogonal functions (EOFs), the dominant patterns ...

Abstract: hile much attention has been given to investigating the dynamics of tropical cyclogenesis (TCG), little work explores the thermodynamical evolution and related cloud microphysical processes occurring during TCG. This study ...

Abstract: hile a robust theoretical framework for tropical cyclogenesis (TCG) within African easterly waves (AEWs) has recently been developed, little work explores the development of low-level meso-?-scale vortices (LLVs) and a ...

Abstract: he ?bottom up? generation of low-level vortices (LVs) and midlevel vortices (MVs) during the genesis of Tropical Storm Debby (2006) and the roles of a midlevel ?marsupial pouch? associated with an African easterly wave ...

Abstract: n this study, the predictability of and parametric differences in the genesis of Hurricane Julia (2010) are investigated using 20 mesoscale ensemble forecasts with the finest resolution of 1 km. Results show that the genesis ...
