Rapid Development of the Tropical Cyclone Warm Core
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper presents a simple theoretical argument to isolate the conditions under which a tropical cyclone can rapidly develop a warm-core thermal structure and subsequently approach a steady state. The theoretical argument ...
Forecasts of Hurricanes Using Large-Ensemble Outputs
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper describes the development of a model framework for Forecasts of Hurricanes Using Large-Ensemble Outputs (FHLO). FHLO quantifies the forecast uncertainty of a tropical cyclone (TC) by generating probabilistic ...
A Climatology of Hurricane Eye Formation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his paper presents a climatology of the initial eye formations of a broad set of Atlantic tropical cyclones (TCs) during 1989?2008. A new dataset of structure and intensity parameters is synthesized from the vortex data ...
Revisiting the Relationship between Eyewall Contraction and Intensification
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n the widely accepted convective ring model of tropical cyclone intensification, the intensification of the maximum winds and the contraction of the radius of maximum winds (RMW) occur simultaneously. This study shows that ...
Examining Tropical Cyclone Structure and Intensification with the FLIGHT+ Dataset from 1999 to 2012
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractA comprehensive examination of tropical cyclone (TC) kinematic and thermodynamic structure in the Atlantic basin is created from the Extended Flight Level Dataset for Tropical Cyclones (FLIGHT+, version 1.1). In ...
A 10-Year Survey of Tropical Cyclone Inner-Core Lightning Bursts and Their Relationship to Intensity Change
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis study seeks to reconcile discrepancies between previous studies analyzing the relationship between lightning and tropical cyclone (TC) intensity change. Inner-core lightning bursts (ICLBs) were identified from ...
