Abstract: he effects of stratospheric cooling and sea surface warming on tropical cyclone (TC) potential intensity (PI) are explored using an axisymmetric cloud-resolving model run to radiative?convective equilibrium (RCE). Almost ...

Abstract: lausible diagnostics for the top of the tropical cyclone boundary layer include (i) the top of the layer of strong frictional inflow and (ii) the top of the ?well mixed? layer, that is, the layer over which potential ...

Abstract: Aerial light detection and ranging (LiDAR) offers the potential to autogenerate detailed, three-dimensional (3D) models of the built environment in urban settings. Autogeneration is needed as manual generation is not ...

Abstract: The interaction between complex terrain and a landfalling tropical cyclone (TC) over northeastern Australia is investigated using the fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University?National Center for Atmospheric Research ...

Abstract: Four supercell motion forecast algorithms are investigated with respect to their hodograph-analysis parameters. Another method derived from the data presented herein, the so-called offset method, is used to develop a ...

Abstract: he world?s tropical coral reefs are at risk of severe bleaching episodes and species decline in response to global climate variability. The ecological and economic value of reef ecosystems is enormous, yet very little is ...

Abstract: It is generally recognized that the U.K. construction industry is associated with low profit, delay in payments, cash flow concerns, short-term relationships compared with other industries, and high levels of business ...

Abstract: The effects of relative and absolute sea surface temperature (SST) on tropical cyclone potential intensity are investigated using the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) single-column model. The model is run in two ...
