A Case Study of an Outbreak of Twin Tropical Cyclones
Previous studies have found that twin tropical cyclogenesis typically occurs 2–3 times a year in the Pacific Ocean. During October 1997, however, three sets of twin tropical cyclones developed in the central Pacific within a single month. Tropical cyclone archives indicate that this is the only such outbreak from 1969 to 2006. This case study explores the background and synoptic conditions that...
متن کاملAnalysis of Tropical Cyclogenesis in the Western North Pacific for 2000 and 2001*
High-resolution satellite data and NCEP–NCAR reanalysis data are used to analyze 34 tropical cyclone (TC) genesis events in the western North Pacific during the 2000 and 2001 typhoon seasons. Three types of synoptic-scale disturbances are identified in the pregenesis stages. They are tropical cyclone energy dispersions (TCEDs), synoptic wave trains (SWTs) unrelated to preexisting TCs, and easte...
متن کاملThe Impact of COSMIC GPS RO Data on the Analysis and Prediction of Tropical Cyclogenesis
Tropical cyclonesis remains as one of the most challenging problems in atmospheric sciences, and is still subject to lively debate. Some argue that the tropical cyclogenesis is mostly controlled by large-scale circulations, and therefore, possesses a high degree of predictability. Others argue that the large-scale circulations only provides a favorable environment, the actual cyclogenesis is si...
متن کاملCyclogenesis in the Mediterranean basin: a diagnosis using synoptic-dynamic anomalies
This work deals with the hypothesis that synoptically-driven heavy rains in the Mediterranean region are connected with the occurrence of synoptic-dynamic anomalies. We investigate this hypothesis by conducting a diagnostic study of a cyclogenesis event from 18–21 July 2001. Cyclogenesis started over the western Mediterranean Sea and was triggered by the approach of a pre-existing upper trough ...
متن کاملClimatological aspects of cyclogenesis near Adlie Land Antarctica
The Adélie Land coastal region of Antarctica is one of the most prominent cyclogenesis regions in the Southern Hemisphere, and is adjacent to the continent’s most intense katabatic wind regime. However, the physical mechanisms responsible for cyclogenesis are not known. A manual analysis of cyclogenesis for the 2003–2005 period using output from the Antarctic Mesoscale Prediction System (AMPS) ...
