CYCLOPs: a Unified Framework for Surface Flux-Driven Cyclones Outside the Tropics [PDF]

Weather and Climate Dynamics
Cyclonic storms resembling tropical cyclones are sometimes observed well outside the tropics. These include medicanes, polar lows, subtropical cyclones, Kona storms, and possibly some cases of Australian East Coast Lows.

STORM BEACH BUFFER REQUIREMENT FOR STORM WAVES FROM A TROPICAL CYCLONE [PDF]

Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 2011
Storm beach buffer, being different from the coastal set back currently in place in many countries in the world, is the provision of a sufficient beach width to safe guard against the onslaught of a fierce storm. The extent of this requirement is tentatively assessed using the SBEACH module in the CEDAS package. The inputs for the SBEACH module include

Recent observed changes in severe storms over the United Kingdom and Iceland [PDF]

, 2005
Severe storms defined as 3-hourly pressure changes exceeding an extreme magnitude, were carefully manually quality-controlled and analyzed at stations in the UK and Iceland which had at least 45 years of digitized data.

Climatology of Tropical Cyclones Approaching Tanzania and Their Impacts on Rainfall in East Africa

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Tropical cyclones (TCs) that approach Tanzania bring heavy rainfall over northern Mozambique, Tanzania, and south‐central Kenya, but the occurrence of these TCs reduces precipitation over southern African countries. Easterly steering winds and the Mascarene High are key features directing TCs westward.

Magnetic field at geosynchronous orbit during high-speed stream-driven storms: Connections to the solar wind, the plasma sheet, and the outer electron radiation belt [PDF]

, 2010
Superposed-epoch analysis is performed on magnetic field measurements from five GOES spacecraft in geosynchronous orbit during 63 high-speed stream-driven storms in 1995–2005. The field strength and the field stretching angle are examined as functions of

Role of regional and global datasets in the simulation of intense tropical cyclones over Bay of Bengal region in a convection‐permitting scale

Meteorological Applications
The efficacy of global and regional datasets on the prediction of extremely severe cyclonic storms over the Bay of Bengal (BoB) was evaluated using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model in a double‐nested domain with a 4 km finer resolution on

Representation of Long‐Term Observed UK Winter Precipitation Trends and Variability in UKCP18 Global Climate Models

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Evaluating historical precipitation trends is complicated by interactions between variability in atmospheric circulation and thermodynamic forcing. This study assesses 1901–2023 UK winter precipitation trends in UK Climate Projections 2018 (UKCP18) global climate models using dynamical adjustment to separate circulation‐driven and non‐dynamical ...

Change in binge drinking behavior after Hurricane Sandy among persons exposed to the 9/11 World Trade Center disaster

Preventive Medicine Reports, 2020
The objective of this study was to examine changes in drinking behavior after Hurricane Sandy among 3199 World Trade Center Health Registry (Registry) enrollees before (2011–12) and after Hurricane Sandy (2015–16). A composite Sandy exposure scale (none,

Heat, Health and Holidays: Reported Heat Related Adjustments to Australian Tourist Behaviour

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study assessed how climate‐related hazards affect Australian tourists' travel planning. While 80% of tourists report no impact, the 20% who do experience disruption most commonly change their activities, timing, or destination, with heat and rain affecting the same proportion of tourists across beach, city, nature, and family tourism types ...

Coarse, intermediate and high resolution numerical simulations of the transition of a tropical wave critical layer to a tropical storm [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2010
Recent work has hypothesized that tropical cyclones in the deep Atlantic and eastern Pacific basins develop from within the cyclonic Kelvin cat's eye of a tropical easterly wave critical layer located equatorward of the easterly jet axis.
