A Multiple Linear Regression Model for Tropical Cyclone Intensity Estimation from Satellite Infrared Images
An objectively trained model for tropical cyclone intensity estimation from routine satellite infrared images over the Northwestern Pacific Ocean is presented in this paper. The intensity is correlated to some critical signals extracted from the satellite infrared images, by training the 325 tropical cyclone cases from 1996 to 2007 typhoon seasons. To begin with, deviation angles and radial pro...
متن کاملEstimating Tropical Cyclone Intensity from Infrared Image Data
This paper describes results from a near-real-time objective technique for estimating the intensity of tropical cyclones from satellite infrared imagery in the North Atlantic Ocean basin. The technique quantifies the level of organization or axisymmetry of the infrared cloud signature of a tropical cyclone as an indirect measurement of its maximum wind speed. The final maximum wind speed calcul...
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 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 کاملEstimating Tropical Cyclone Size in the Northwestern Pacific from Geostationary Satellite Infrared Images
Thirty-year (1980–2009) tropical cyclone (TC) images from geostationary satellite (GOES, Meteosat, GMS, MTSAT and FY2) infrared sensors covering the Northwestern Pacific were used to build a TC size dataset based on objective models. The models are based on a correlation between the size of TCs, defined as the mean azimuth radius of 34 kt surface winds (R34) and the brightness temperature radia...
