Is the State of the Air‐Sea Interface a Factor in Rapid Intensification and Rapid Decline of Tropical Cyclones? [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2017
AbstractTropical storm intensity prediction remains a challenge in tropical meteorology. Some tropical storms undergo dramatic rapid intensification and rapid decline. Hurricane researchers have considered particular ambient environmental conditions including the ocean thermal and salinity structure and internal vortex dynamics (e.g., eyewall ...

Recent global increase in multiple rapid intensification of tropical cyclones. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2023
AbstractThe rapid intensification (RI ≥ 30 knots/24-h) of tropical cyclones (TCs) makes TC forecasting difficult, resulting in severe damage to property and life. Forecasting can get even worse if TCs have experienced RI more than once (referred to as "multiple-RI TCs") in their lifetime.

Rapid intensification of an established CHO cell fed-batch process. [PDF]

Biotechnol Prog, 2022
Abstract Currently, the mammalian biomanufacturing industry explores process intensification (PI) to meet upcoming demands of biotherapeutics while keeping production flexible but, more importantly, as economic as possible. However, intensified processes often require more development time compared with conventional fed‐batches (FBs ...

A potential explanation for the global increase in tropical cyclone rapid intensification. [PDF]

Nat Commun, 2022
Abstract Tropical cyclone rapid intensification events often cause destructive hurricane landfalls because they are associated with the strongest storms and forecasts with the highest errors. Multi-decade observational datasets of tropical cyclone behavior have recently enabled documentation of upward trends in tropical cyclone rapid ...

Operational Forecasting of Tropical Cyclone Rapid Intensification at the National Hurricane Center

Atmosphere, 2021
Although some recent progress has been made in operational tropical cyclone (TC) intensity forecasting, the prediction of rapid intensification (RI) remains a challenging problem.

Rapid intensification and the bimodal distribution of tropical cyclone intensity. [PDF]

Nat Commun, 2016
AbstractThe severity of a tropical cyclone (TC) is often summarized by its lifetime maximum intensity (LMI), and the climatological LMI distribution is a fundamental feature of the climate system. The distinctive bimodality of the LMI distribution means that major storms (LMI >96 kt) are not very rare compared with less intense storms.

The North Equatorial Current and rapid intensification of super typhoons. [PDF]

Nat Commun
AbstractSuper Typhoon Mangkhut, which traversed the North Equatorial Current (NEC; 8–17 °N) in the western North Pacific in 2018, was the most intense Category-5 tropical cyclone (TC) with the longest duration in history—3.5 days. Here we show that the combination of two factors—high ocean heat content (OHC) and increased stratification — makes the NEC

Dynamic forcing behind Hurricane Lidia's rapid intensification [PDF]

Weather and Climate Dynamics
This study examines Hurricane Lidia's rapid intensification (RI) in the understudied northeastern Pacific, focusing on its interaction with an upper-level trough.

Diversity of Tropical Cyclones Rapid Intensification

Geophysical Research Letters
The study investigates the rapid intensification (RI) of tropical cyclones (TCs) in the Northwestern Pacific. We found that rapid changes in the maximum wind speed (Vmax) and the minimum central pressure (Pmin) are not always concurrent.

Revisiting the Relationship Between Tropical Cyclone Rapid Intensification and the Distribution of Inner‐Core Precipitation

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023
The relationship between tropical cyclone (TC) rapid intensification (RI) and the distribution of inner‐core precipitation preceding RI is reexamined using satellite‐based precipitation measurements and best‐track data.
