Abstract: To simulate tropical cyclone (TC) intensification, coupled ocean?atmosphere prediction models must realistically reproduce the magnitude and pattern of storm-forced sea surface temperature (SST) cooling. The potential for ...

Abstract: Mesoscale wind fields have been determined for a mature hurricane with high spatial and temporal resolution, continuity, and coherency. These wind fields, near the tropopause in the inner core and at low levels inside the ...

Abstract: he Hurricane Weather Research and Forecasting Model (HWRF) is an operational model used to provide numerical guidance in support of tropical cyclone forecasting at the National Hurricane Center. HWRF is a complex multicomponent ...
