Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractIn late March 2014, very intense Tropical Cyclone Hellen threatened the Comoros Archipelago and the Madagascan northwest coastline as it became one of the strongest tropical cyclones (TCs) ever observed over the ...
Dynamical and Physical Processes Leading to Tropical Cyclone Intensification under Upper-Level Trough Forcing
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he rapid intensification of Tropical Cyclone (TC) Dora (2007, southwest Indian Ocean) under upper-level trough forcing is investigated. TC?trough interaction is simulated using a limited-area operational numerical weather ...
Prediction and Diagnosis of the Motion and Rapid Intensification of Typhoon Sinlaku during Tropical Cyclone Structure Experiment 2008 (TCS08)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he impact of initial structure on storm evolution is examined for the case of a tropical storm entering rapid intensification. At the onset of rapid intensification, satellite cloud signatures suggest that the structural ...
A Climatology of Southwest Indian Ocean Tropical Systems: Their Number, Tracks, Impacts, Sizes, Empirical Maximum Potential Intensity, and Intensity Changes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractA 17-yr ?climatology? of tropical-system activity, track, size, and 24-h intensity change in the southwest Indian Ocean (SWIO) is developed and analyzed in comparison with other intensively studied basins such as ...
