Analysis of Idealized Tropical Cyclone Simulations Using the Weather Research and Forecasting Model: Sensitivity to Turbulence Parameterization and Grid Spacing
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Weather Research and Forecasting Advanced Research Model (WRF-ARW) was used to perform idealized tropical cyclone (TC) simulations, with domains of 36-, 12-, and 4-km horizontal grid spacing. Tests were conducted to ...
Influence of Environmental Humidity on Tropical Cyclone Size
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Observations demonstrate that the radius of maximum winds in tropical cyclones (TCs) can vary by an order of magnitude; similar size differences are evident in other spatial measures of the wind field as well as in cloud ...
The Impact of Future Climate Change on TC Intensity and Structure: A Downscaling Approach
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: comprehensive analysis of tropical cyclone (TC) intensity change in a warming climate is undertaken with high-resolution (6- and 2-km grid spacing) idealized simulations using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) ...
Atlantic Hurricanes and Climate Change. Part I: Experimental Design and Isolation of Thermodynamic Effects
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model is used in a downscaling experiment to simulate a portion of the Atlantic hurricane season both in present-day conditions and with modifications to include future thermodynamic ...
