Exploring Inland Tropical Cyclone Rainfall and Tornadoes under Future Climate Conditions through a Case Study of Hurricane Ivan
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Relationship between Residential Losses and Hurricane Winds: Role of the Florida Building Code
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The effectiveness of the Florida Building Code (FBC) against the impacts of wind speed, duration of strong winds, and wind directional change is quantified. For seven historical hurricanes that impacted Florida during 24 ...
Importance of Midlevel Moisture for Tropical Cyclone Formation in Easterly and Monsoon Environments over the Western North Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Large-Scale Environmental Influences on Tropical Cyclone Formation Processes and Development Time
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The development of tropical cloud clusters (TCCs) to tropical cyclones (TCs) is the process of TC formation. This study identifies five main environmental transitions for the development of TCCs to TCs in the western North ...
Tropical Cloud Cluster Environments and Their Importance for Tropical Cyclone Formation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis study uses a nonhierarchical cluster analysis to identify the major environmental circulation patterns associated with tropical cloud cluster (TCC) formation in the western North Pacific. All TCCs that formed ...
Changes in Hurricanes from a 13-Yr Convection-Permitting Pseudo–Global Warming Simulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractTropical cyclones have enormous costs to society through both loss of life and damage to infrastructure. There is good reason to believe that such storms will change in the future as a result of changes in the ...
