Research on the Response of the Acoustic Structure in the Upper Ocean during Hurricane Transit

Tropical Cyclone Research and Review
Communication and target detection in underwater acoustics depend significantly on the acoustic structure of the upper ocean, influenced by dispersion processes occurring within it.

The Hurricane Exposure, Adversity, and Recovery Tool (HEART): Developing and Validating a Risk Screening Instrument for Youth Exposed to Hurricane Harvey

Journal of Family Strengths, 2019
Given the increasing regularity with which severe (named) hurricanes arise, there is a need for valid, practically useful measures that facilitate child-centered post-hurricane situation analysis and needs assessment.

Crisis Preparation, Capacity Building, and Community Resilience: Lessons From Maui

Nonprofit Management and Leadership, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The 2023 Maui wildfires provide a unique context to explore the impact of nonprofit crisis networks taking a proactive role in community crisis response, leveraging resources, expertise, and networks. The Hawaiʻi Community Foundation (HCF) has been a key player in Maui's local response, providing critical support, mobilizing volunteers, and ...

Fundraising as Contracting: Why Nonprofits Accept In‐Kind Donations

Nonprofit Management and Leadership, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In‐kind (nonmonetary) donations are a popular form of philanthropy that have received much less scholarly attention than monetary gifts. This study documents the prevalence of types of in‐kind giving and associated organizational practices, then explores links between the perceptions of nonprofit managers, organizational practices, and ...

Dry intrusions and warm‐core development in Medicanes: Insights from a multi‐case analysis and the peculiar evolution of Ianos

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Mediterranean tropical‐like cyclones show a clear seasonality, with September cyclones exhibiting the deepest convection and Ianos representing the most extreme case. While one or more dry intrusions are typically detected during the cyclone life cycle, Ianos instead features two much weaker descending airflows.

Why does typhoon Noru (2022) possess severe rapid intensification as explored by the extended Sawyer–Eliassen equation?

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
As inferred from the Sawyer–Eliassen analyses, the intense diabatic heating located slightly inside the radius of maximum tangential wind (RMW) associated with a compact eyewall is mainly responsible for the severe RI of Noru, in contrast to typhoon Goni (2020) at a slower spinup despite similar RMW, due to the weaker diabatic heating. The severe RI of

Functionally Assembled Terrestrial Ecosystem Simulator (FATES) for Hurricane Disturbance and Recovery

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems
Tropical cyclones are an important cause of forest disturbance, and major storms caused severe structural damage and elevated tree mortality in coastal tropical forests. Model capabilities that can be used to understand post‐hurricane forest recovery are

Stratospheric influence on tropical cyclone evolution

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We developed a metric based on moist static energy to detect and quantify the intrusion of stratospheric air into the inner core of tropical cyclones. High‐resolution numerical simulations show that this stratospheric interaction forms warm anomalies (high‐level warm cores) in the upper troposphere.
