Downwind Development in a Stationary Band Complex Leading to the Secondary Eyewall Formation in the Simulated Typhoon Soudelor (2015)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Previous studies have demonstrated the importance of the downwind development of a rainband in secondary eyewall formation (SEF) in tropical cyclones. However, the details of the transition from rainbands to a secondary ...
Contribution of Dissipative Heating to the Intensity Dependence of Tropical Cyclone Intensification
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Previous studies have demonstrated the contribution of dissipative heating (DH) to the maximum potential intensity (MPI) of tropical cyclones (TCs). Since DH is a function of near-surface wind speed and thus TC intensity, ...
Nonlinear Effects of the Built Environment on Subways at Station Level: Average Travel Distance Changes under the Influence of COVID-19
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The travel behavior of subway passengers has shown systematic differences with the onset and progression of the COVID-19 pandemic. This study focused on subway stations in Xi’an and systematically analyzed the spatiotemporal ...
