Abstract: The adjoint-derived observation impact method is used as a diagnostic to derive the impact of assimilated observations on a metric representing the forecast intensity of a tropical cyclone (TC). Storm-centered composites ...

Abstract: o efficiently and effectively prioritize resources, adaptive observations can be targeted by using some objective criteria to estimate the potential impact an initial condition perturbation (or analysis increment) in a ...

Abstract: gh-resolution observations of Hurricanes Patricia, Joaquin and Marty in 2015 provide new insight into tropical cyclone structure and intensity change as part of the Tropical Cyclone Intensity field program.
