This study explores sensitivity of the Atlantic subtropical anticyclone and the tracks of tropical cyclones traveling around the subtropical anticyclone to radiative transfer. The data sets for these experiments are derived from 120...
The tropical cyclone superensemble has provided skillful forecasts for Atlantic tropical cyclone activity for several years. Until very recently, the tropical cyclone superensemble had only been run using a suite of large scale models....
Rapid intensity changes in hurricanes have been the focus of many publications. Understanding how and why these storms intensify has been the goal of many meteorologists over the last few years. This study explores the energetics of Psi...
Curvature vorticity and shear vorticity are examined in an attempt to elucidate the physical mechanisms behind tropical cyclone (TC) intensity change. A particular emphasis is placed on the role of the shear to curvature vorticity...
This study explores potential vorticity budgets from the complete Ertel's potential vorticity equation during hurricane genesis. The data sets for these experiments are derived from a high-resolution hurricane forecast that provided...
This study focuses on the effects of two different cumulus parameterizations and two different radiation schemes on tropical cyclone frequency and structure in a coupled global climate model, the Florida State University Coupled Global...
Storm-Relative Eulerian Absolute Angular Momentum Tendency in Atlantic Tropical Cyclones: Advection and Torques and Their Relative Roles in Vortex Strengthening
This study examined inner-core sources and sinks of angular momentum in Atlantic tropical cyclones. Each advective and torque term in the Eulerian absolute angular momentum tendency equation was calculated in a storm-relative reference...
The impact of tropical cyclones on Canadian Provinces is an important issue. From 1994 to 2003, fifty-five tropical cyclones entered the Canadian Hurricane Centre (CHC) Response Zone, or ~42% of all named Atlantic tropical cyclones in...
For many years tropical cyclone superensemble has shown remarkable skill in forecasting Atlantic tropical cyclone track and intensity. In this project tropical cyclone superensemble is applied to Eastern Pacific tropical cyclone...
The landfalls of extreme hurricane events in recent years reveal the need for more accurate predictions of winds during landfalling tropical cyclone events to help reduce property damage. The goal of this study is to develop a high...
The goal of this study is to further investigate the relationship between the microphysical processes of a tropical cyclone and its intensification. Hydrometeors such as rainwater, cloud ice, cloud water, snow, and graupel play a...
Using a suite of high resolution models, the forecast skills of the superensemble for precipitation and 2-meter temperature over the continental United States and North America are shown. In this study, models and/or gridded fields such...
A four-dimensional model was designed to assimilate ozone for a one-year period from January to December 1999. The model has 1 ° x 1 ° horizontal resolution and is 18 sigma levels in the vertical from 10 hPa to the Earth's surface. This...
