Toward Clarity on Understanding Tropical Cyclone Intensification
The authors review an emerging paradigm of tropical cyclone intensification in the context of the prototype intensification problem, which relates to the spinup of a preexisting vortex near tropical storm strength in a quiescent environment. In addition, the authors review briefly what is known about tropical cyclone intensification in the presence of vertical wind shear. The authors go on to e...
متن کاملParadigms for tropical cyclone intensification
We review the four main paradigms of tropical cyclone intensification that have emerged over the past five decades, discussing the relationship between them and highlighting their strengths and weaknesses. A major focus is on a new paradigm articulated in a series of recent papers using observations and highresolution, three-dimensional, numerical model simulations. Unlike the three previous pa...
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 کاملOn the intensification and recurvature of tropical cyclone
On Christmas Eve, 1974, tropical cyclone Tracy (hereafter Tracy) made landfall at Darwin, Australia, with tragic loss of life and property. The current study uses objective analyses from the NCEP and ERA40 re-analysis projects, and the Bureau of Meteorology’s operational Tropical Cyclone Limited Area Prediction System, TC-LAPS, to investigate (a) changes in the tropical circulation, and (b) cha...
متن کاملThe Influence of Tropical Cyclone Size on Its Intensification
This study investigates tropical cyclones of the past two decades (1990–2010) and the connection, if any, between their size and their ability to subsequently undergo rapid intensification (RI). Three different parameters are chosen to define the size of a tropical cyclone: radius of maximum wind (RMW), the average 34-knot (kt; 1 kt5 0.51m s) radius (AR34), and the radius of the outermost close...
