RISObjective Detection of Tropical Cyclones in High-Resolution Analyses
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An automated procedure is used to evaluate objective criteria for the detection of observed tropical cyclones in high-resolution (1.125°) European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts analyses. Best values of the ...
On the Influence of the Andes on the General Circulation of the Southern Hemisphere
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An experiment is described in which the Andean topography in a general circulation model is replaced by an envelope topography and a new model climatology is produced. The resulting simulation is compared to the model ...
A Diagnostic Study of the Intensity of Three Tropical Cyclones in the Australian Region. Part I: A Synopsis of Observed Features of Tropical Cyclone Kathy (1984)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Objective streamline analyses and digitized high-resolution IR satellite cloud data have been used to examine in detail the changes in the environmental circulation and in the cloud structure that took place in and around ...
A Diagnostic Study of the Intensity of Three Tropical Cyclones in the Australian Region. Part II: An Analytic Method for Determining the Time Variation of the Intensity of a Tropical Cyclone
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The observed features discussed in Part I of this paper, regarding the intensification and dissipation of Tropical Cyclone Kathy, have been integrated in a simple mathematical model that can produce a reliable 15?30-h ...
A Technique to Determine the Radius of Maximum Wind of a Tropical Cyclone
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A simple technique is developed that enables the radius of maximum wind of a tropical cyclone to be estimated from satellite cloud data. It is based on the characteristic cloud and wind structure of the eyewall of a tropical ...
Fabrication of Superhydrophobic Surfaces Using Inverted Glancing Angle Deposition (I-GLAD)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a novel approach for fabricating superhydrophobic surfaces using inverted glancing angle deposition (I-GLAD). GLAD is an advanced physical vapor deposition technique that utilizes substrate tilt and ...
Tropical Cyclone-like Vortices in a Limited Area Model: Comparison with Observed Climatology
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A climate simulation of a limited area model implemented over the Australian region is analyzed for the presence of low pressure systems that have some of the physical characteristics of tropical cyclones. The model is run ...
Tropical Cyclone Activity in the Fiji Region: Spatial Patterns and Relationship to Large-Scale Circulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study examines the variations in tropical cyclone (TC) genesis positions and their subsequent tracks for different phases of the El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO) phenomenon in the Fiji, Samoa, and Tonga region (FST ...
The Influence of the Madden–Julian Oscillation on Tropical Cyclone Activity in the Fiji Region
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study examines the modulation of tropical cyclone (TC) activity by the Madden?Julian oscillation (MJO) in the Fiji, Samoa, and Tonga regions (FST region), using Joint Typhoon Warning Center best-track cyclone data and ...
