Tropical Cyclone Multi‐Level Wind‐Speed Structure Reconstruction From Sparse Dropsonde Data Via Adversarial Learning

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 16, 28 August 2025.
Abstract Tropical cyclones (TCs) pose significant global hazards due to their intense winds, heavy rainfall, and associated storm surges. While in situ observations from aircraft are crucial for understanding TC structures, these measurements are often spatially sparse, limiting the characterization of the wind speed structure.

Importance of Initial Vortex Wavenumber‐1 Asymmetries to Tropical Cyclone Intensification: Idealized Numerical Experiments

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 8, 28 April 2025.
Abstract Considerable asymmetries in the tropical cyclones (TCs) inner core are frequently observed during the intensification phase. However, these asymmetric structures are often not well represented in the initialization of most operational forecasting models.

Global Predictability of Marine Heatwave Induced Rapid Intensification of Tropical Cyclones

Earth'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

Earth 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
