Impact of the Madden–Julian Oscillation on Western North Pacific Tropical Cyclogenesis Associated with Large-Scale Patterns
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he intraseasonal variability of tropical cyclogenesis in the western North Pacific (WNP) basin is explored in this study. The relation of cyclogenesis in each of the five large-scale patterns identified in recent work by ...
Mesoscale Structure of Precipitation Bands in a North Atlantic Winter Storm
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The present study discusses the meso- and microscale structures of Precipitation regions within a midlatitude winter storm over the North Atlantic, observed during the Experiment on Rapidly Intensifying Cyclones over the ...
Midsummer Gap Winds and Low-Level Circulation over the Eastern Tropical Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The low-level seasonal and intraseasonal wind variability over the northeastern tropical Pacific (NETP), its relationship with other variables, and the connection with large- and middle-scale atmospheric patterns are ...
Reply to “Comment on ‘Deaths by Lightning in Mexico (1979–2011): Threat or Vulnerability?’”
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Changes in Characteristics of Rapidly Intensifying Western North Pacific Tropical Cyclones Related to Climate Regime Shifts
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractA significant increase in the proportion of tropical cyclones undergoing rapid intensification at least once during their lifetime (RITCs) over the western North Pacific (WNP) is observed since 1998 when an abrupt ...
Deaths by Lightning in Mexico (1979–2011): Threat or Vulnerability?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his paper presents evidence of the geographical distribution of deaths due to lightning over Mexico for the period 1979?2011. Over 7300 deaths occurred during this period, an average of 230 per year, which translates into ...
Observations and Forecasts from the Landfall of Tropical Cyclones John, Lane, and Paul (2006) over Northwestern Mexico
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study focuses on track and intensity changes of three tropical cyclones that, during the season of 2006, developed in the eastern North Pacific basin and made landfall over northwestern Mexico. Observational datasets, ...
Potential Large-Scale Forcing Mechanisms Driving Enhanced North Atlantic Tropical Cyclone Activity since the Mid-1990s
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractA significant increase of tropical cyclone (TC) frequency is observed over the North Atlantic (NATL) basin during the recent decades (1995?2014). In this study, the changes in large-scale controls of the NATL TC ...
Convective Forcing in the Intertropical Convergence Zone of the Eastern Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: One of the goals of the East Pacific Investigation of Climate, year 2001 process study (EPIC2001), was to understand the mechanisms controlling the forcing of deep atmospheric convection over the tropical eastern Pacific. ...
