Reexamination of Tropical Cyclone Wind–Pressure Relationships
Tropical cyclone wind–pressure relationships are reexamined using 15 yr of minimum sea level pressure estimates, numerical analysis fields, and best-track intensities. Minimum sea level pressure is estimated from aircraft reconnaissance or measured from dropwindsondes, and maximum wind speeds are interpolated from best-track maximum 1-min wind speed estimates. The aircraft data were collected p...
متن کاملDependence of tropical cyclone intensification on the Coriolis parameter
The dependence of tropical cyclone (TC) intensification on the Coriolis parameter was investigated in an idealized hurricane model. By specifying an initial balanced vortex on an f-plane, we observed faster TC development under lower planetary vorticity environment than under higher planetary vorticity environment. The diagnosis of the model outputs indicates that the distinctive evolution char...
متن کاملDetermining Tropical Cyclone Surface Wind Speed Structure and Intensity with the CYGNSS Satellite Constellation
The Cyclone Global Navigation Satellite System (CYGNSS) consists of a constellation of eight microsatellites that provide observations of surface wind speed in all precipitating conditions. A method for estimating tropical cyclone (TC) metrics—maximum surface wind speed VMAX, radius of maximum surface wind speed RMAX, and wind radii (R64, R50, and R34)—from CYGNSS observations is developed and ...
متن کاملWindSat Ocean Surface Emissivity Dependence on Wind Speed in Tropical Cyclones
Radiometers are adept at retrieving near surface ocean wind vectors. The Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) launched the WindSat polarimetric radiometer with five frequency channels to observe the sea surface and test its ability to accurately measure the wind in various weather conditions. This study focuses on its performance in extreme conditions – the high wind and heavy precipitation of a tro...
متن کاملTropical Cyclone Wind Estimation Using Synthetic Aperture Radar
We have investigated various SAR images of tropical cyclones, which were acquired by the SAR aboard the satellites ENVISAT and RADARSAT-1 at different polarizations and incidence angles, using a similar approach as suggested by Horstmann et al., 2005 [1]. The resulting SAR-retrieved wind fields are compared to results of high-resolution numerical models as well as in situ measurements collected...
