An Exploratory Analysis of the Relationship between Tropical Storm Formation in the Western North Pacific and ENSO
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO)-related variations in the observed character (e.g., annual storm totals, preferred genesis region, etc.) of the tropical cyclone activity in the western North Pacific are sought. With ...
Evolution of the Cloud Pattern during the Formation of Tropical Cyclone Twins Symmetrical with Respect to the Equator
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The evolution of the pattern of the deep convective cloud is presented for three selected cases of tropical cyclone twins symmetrical with respect to the equator. In each case, the pattern evolution is similar and can be ...
Description of a Monsoon Gyre and Its Effects on the Tropical Cyclones in the Western North Pacific during August 1991
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper describes the character and evolution of the low-level wind, sea level pressure, and satellite-observed cloudiness over the western North Pacific (WNP) during August 1991 when the low-level monsoon circulation ...
Specific Tropical Cyclone Track Types and Unusual Tropical Cyclone Motions Associated with a Reverse-Oriented Monsoon Trough in the Western North Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In its simplest description, the large-scale low-level circulation of summer over the western North Pacific Ocean can be described in terms of low-latitude southwesterlies, a monsoon trough, and a subtropical ridge. When ...
A Look at Global Tropical Cyclone Activity during 1995: Contrasting High Atlantic Activity with Low Activity in Other Basins
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: During 1995, there was a near-record number of named tropical cyclones in the North Atlantic basin. This unusual event fueled speculation that it marked a tangible signal of global climate change, or that it marked a return ...
Western North Pacific, North Indian Ocean, and Southern Hemisphere Tropical Cyclones of 1997
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper is an annual summary of the western North Pacific, north Indian Ocean, and Southern Hemisphere tropical cyclones of 1997. (Note: for the Southern Hemisphere, the 1997 annual total is accrued from July 1996 to ...
