Development and Testing of Tropical Cyclone Parametric Wind Models Tailored for Midlatitude Application—Preliminary Results
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Over the years, researchers have developed parametric wind models to depict the surface winds within a tropical cyclone (TC). Most models were developed using data from aircraft flights into low-latitude (south of 30°N) ...

The Theory of Trapped-Fetch Waves with Tropical Cyclones—An Operational Perspective
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The majority of high wave events and almost all cases of extreme or phenomenal wave growth are the result of a high degree of synchronicity between moving storms and the waves that they generate. This wave containment or ...
The Modeling of Trapped-Fetch Waves with Tropical Cyclones—A Desktop Operational Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The authors? development of an underlying theory of trapped-fetch waves with tropical cyclones was presented in an earlier paper. Based on this work a simple, desktop Lagrangian-based trapped-fetch wave model was developed. ...
Extreme Value Analysis of Tropical Cyclone Trapped-Fetch Waves
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Many of the extreme ocean wave events generated by tropical cyclones (TCs) can be explained by examining one component of the spectral wave field, the trapped-fetch wave (TFW). Using a Lagrangian TFW model, a parametric ...
