Abstract: AbstractGlobal convection-permitting models enable weather prediction from local to planetary scales and are therefore often expected to transform the weather prediction enterprise. This potential, however, depends on the ...

Abstract: This paper introduces the integrative simulation environment (ISE) methodology and a proof-of-concept implementation, designed as modular and extensible approach for interactive structural simulation. The ISE methodology ...

Abstract: yewall replacements in mature tropical cyclones usually cause intensity fluctuations. One reason for eyewall replacements remaining a forecasting challenge is the lack of understanding of how secondary eyewalls form. This ...

Abstract: apid intensification (RI) of tropical cyclones (TCs) remains one of the most challenging issues in TC prediction. This study investigates the predictability of RI, the uncertainty in predicting RI timing, and the dynamical ...

Abstract: AbstractIn October 2015 Hurricane Patricia stormed through the eastern Pacific, taking its place as the strongest hurricane in recorded history when its intensity reached a record breaking 185 kt (1 kt = 0.51 m s?1). ...

Abstract: Light detection and ranging (LIDAR) scanners can rapidly collect high-resolution, centimeter-level-accurate point clouds representing topography, suitable for change detection if scans are repeated over time. To perform ...

Abstract: Atmospheric predictability is measured by the average difference (or “error”) within an ensemble of forecasts starting from slightly different initial conditions. The spatial scale of the error field is a fundamental ...
