Understanding and predicting the evolution of the tropical cyclone (TC) inner-core continues to be a major research focus in tropical meteorology. Eyewall slope and its relationship to intensity and intensity change is one example that...
This study presents a new algorithm to dealias folded Doppler velocities in S, C, and X-Band radars using a new boundary detection technique on the raw velocity field as a whole, rather than the traditional gate by gate methodology used...
While coastal areas along the United States Atlantic and Gulf Coasts have become increasingly accustomed to dealing with landfalling hurricanes and tropical storms, populations further inland can often be surprised by powerful storms...
First proposed by Twomey, the aerosol first indirect effect hypothesizes that increased aerosol concentration leads to a larger number of cloud condensation nuclei, and therefore smaller but more numerous cloud droplets, which results in...
Many studies have been conducted on the satellite remote sensing of rainfall, but not on the remote sensing of snowfall. To obtain a global view of snowfall in a timely matter, passive high frequency microwave satellite measurements must...
Atmospheric conditions during the dry season of the South American monsoon are instrumental in the initiation of convection during the wet season and are strongly correlated to SSTs within the Atlantic Warm Pool. Subsequently, accurate...
The variations in the sea breeze are examined both diurnally and interannually along the panhandle of Florida during the boreal summer season. A climatology of sea breeze cross sections is calculated eight times daily between the years...
In this study, the Petterssen-Sutcliffe development equation is used to examine cyclogenesis. In the past, several other methods have been used to study cyclogenesis and calculate vertical motion, such as the kinematic and adiabatic...
The lack of satellite imagery prior to 1966 and limited aircraft reconnaissance has led to an indefinite number of tropical cyclones (TCs) in the Atlantic Basin remaining undetected by traditional surface observational networks. As a...
Statistical Associations Between Large Scale Climate Oscillations and Mesoscale Surface Meteorological Variability in the Apalachicola Chattahoochee-Flint River Basin
The "water wars" of the Apalachicola-Chattahoochee-Flint (ACF) River Basin are fueled largely by historic and current droughts in the southeastern United States. In attempts to describe climatological circumstances that could lead to low...
There has been great energy focused on tropical cyclone intensity forecasting over the past thirty years. Toward the goal of providing more accurate intensity forecasts, the role of the environment of a tropical storm has been studied at...
Ensemble model data can provide a wealth of guidance to forecasters, especially in terms of forecast confidence. A model run where members diverge generally corresponds to a low confidence forecast, while a model run where members...
A composite study is presented analyzing the influence of upper-tropospheric troughs on the evolution of precipitation in twelve Atlantic tropical cyclones (TCs) between the years 2000 – 2005. The TRMM Multi-Satellite Precipitation...
