Analysis of Surface Winds at Mawson, Antarctica
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An analysis is made of the wind regime at Mawson, Antarctica, to distinguish the meteorological characteristics leading to the gale force winds associated with blizzards as distinct from calm conditions or the relatively ...
Sea Surface Temperature Thresholds for Tropical Cyclone Formation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: lmost 70 years ago a sea surface temperature (SST) threshold of 26°?27°C, below which tropical cyclones (TCs) did not form, was proposed, based on a qualitative assessment of warm-season global SST and known TC formation ...
Projected Changes in Late-Twenty-First-Century Tropical Cyclone Frequency in 13 Coupled Climate Models from Phase 5 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: hanges in tropical cyclone (TC) frequency under anthropogenic climate change are examined for 13 global models from phase 5 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5), using the Okubo?Weiss?Zeta parameter (OWZP) ...
The Development and Assessment of a Model-, Grid-, and Basin-Independent Tropical Cyclone Detection Scheme
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: novel approach to tropical cyclone (TC) detection in coarse-resolution numerical model data is introduced and assessed. This approach differs from traditional detectors in two main ways. First, it was developed and tuned ...
An Assessment of a Model-, Grid-, and Basin-Independent Tropical Cyclone Detection Scheme in Selected CMIP3 Global Climate Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: novel tropical cyclone (TC) detection technique designed for coarse-resolution models is tested and evaluated. The detector, based on the Okubo?Weiss?Zeta parameter (OWZP), is applied to a selection of Coupled Model ...
