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 کاملClimate Variations of Tropical Cyclone Activity
A review of the science on the relationship between climate change and tropical cyclones (TCs) is presented. Topics include changes in aspects of tropical climate that are relevant to TC activity; observed trends and low-frequency variability of TC activity; paleoclimate proxy studies; theoretical and modeling studies; future projections; roadblocks to resolution of key issues; and recommendati...
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 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...
متن کاملThe impact of socio-economics and climate change on tropical cyclone losses in the USA
Tropical cyclones that make landfall on the coast of the USA are causing increasing economic losses. It is assumed that the increase in losses is largely due to socio-economic developments, i.e. growing wealth and greater settlement of exposed areas. However, it is also thought that the rise in losses is caused by increasing frequency of severe cyclones resulting from climate change, whether du...
