متن کاملStratified coastal ocean interactions with tropical cyclones
Hurricane-intensity forecast improvements currently lag the progress achieved for hurricane tracks. Integrated ocean observations and simulations during hurricane Irene (2011) reveal that the wind-forced two-layer circulation of the stratified coastal ocean, and resultant shear-induced mixing, led to significant and rapid ahead-of-eye-centre cooling (at least 6 °C and up to 11 °C) over a wide s...
متن کاملP-Wave Microseism Source Areas: Tracking Tropical Cyclones
8 Nonlinear wave-wave interactions generate double-frequency (DF) microseisms, 9 which include both surface waves (mainly Rayleigh-type) and compressional (P) waves. 10 Although it is unclear whether DF surface waves generated in deep oceans are observed 11 on land, we show that DF P waves generated under Super Typhoon Ioke far offshore are 12 detected by beamforming of land-based seismic array...
متن کاملValidation of Tropical Rainfall Potential (TRaP) Forecasts for Australian Tropical Cyclones
Tropical Rainfall Potential (TRaP) forecasts provide estimates of 24 h rainfall accumulation in landfalling tropical cyclones based on the advection of a field of satellite-estimated precipitation. Validation of TRaP forecasts for five Australian tropical cyclones during the 2003-04 season showed significant skill in predicting heavy rainfall. The predictions of maximum rain at landfall compare...
متن کاملClouds in Tropical Cyclones
Clouds within the inner regions of tropical cyclones are unlike those anywhere else in the atmosphere. Convective clouds contributing to cyclogenesis have rotational and deep intense updrafts but tend to have relatively weak downdrafts. Within the eyes of mature tropical cyclones, stratus clouds top a boundary layer capped by subsidence. An outward-sloping eyewall cloud is controlled by adjustm...
