Global Predictability of Marine Heatwave Induced Rapid Intensification of Tropical Cyclones

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 12, Issue 12, December 2024.
Abstract Prediction of the rapid intensification (RI) of tropical cyclones (TCs) is crucial for improving disaster preparedness against storm hazards. These events can cause extensive damage to coastal areas if occurring close to landfall. Available models struggle to provide accurate RI estimates due to the complexity of underlying physical mechanisms.

Applying Weighted Salinity Stratification to Rapid Intensification Prediction of Tropical Cyclone With Machine Learning

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 11, Issue 7, July 2024.
Abstract Tropical cyclone (TC) intensification is influenced by environmental conditions, inner‐core dynamics, and interactions with upper‐ocean layers. Rapid intensification (RI) is a significant threat that is difficult to predict, prompting multiple institutions to collaborate. However, the accuracy still needs further improvements. It is well‐known

Development and Application of a GNSS-R Error Model for Hurricane Winds

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
A parametric error model is developed to represent the uncertainty in retrieval of hurricane force wind speed by a spaceborne GNSS-R instrument. The functional form of the model is constructed based on a bottom–up consideration of the primary ...

A Numerical Study on Impact of Taiwan Island Surface Heat Flux on Super Typhoon Haitang (2005)

open access: yesAdvances in Meteorology, 2015
Three to four tropical cyclones (TCs) by average usually impact Taiwan every year. This study, using the Developmental Tested Center (DTC) version of the Hurricane WRF (HWRF) model, examines the effects of Taiwan’s island surface heat fluxes on typhoon ...
