On the Duration of Tropical Cyclone Rapid Intensification
Rapid intensification (RI) of tropical cyclones (TCs) not only plays a crucial role in the development of major TCs but also poses great challenges to operational forecasting.

Rapid Intensification Near Landfall of Typhoon Vicente (2012)
: Typhoon Vicente (2012) underwent rapid intensification (RI) within 24 h before landfall in Mainland China. Analysis of the large-scale environment and characteristics of Vicente identifies the aforementioned intensification as classic RI.

The Global Influence of ENSO on Rapid Intensification of Tropical Cyclones
Tropical cyclone (TC) rapid intensification (RI) is a major source of uncertainty in TC prediction. Here we examine observed basin‐specific relationships between RI and El Niño‐Southern Oscillation (ENSO), where RI is defined as a TC strengthening by ≥30

A Deterministic Rapid Intensification Aid [PDF]
Abstract Rapid intensification (RI) is difficult to forecast, but some progress has been made in developing probabilistic guidance for predicting these events. One such method is the RI index. The RI index is a probabilistic text product available to National Hurricane Center (NHC) forecasters in real time.

Hitting time of rapid intensification onset in hurricane-like vortices [PDF]
Predicting tropical cyclone (TC), rapid intensification (RI) is an important yet challenging task in current weather forecast due to our incomplete understanding of TC nonlinear processes. This study examines the variability of RI onset, including the probability of RI occurrence and the timing of RI onset, using a low-order stochastic model for TC ...

Observed Relationships Between Tropical Cyclone Vortex Height, Intensity, and Intensification Rate
As a tropical cyclone (TC) intensifies, the tangential wind field expands vertically and increases in magnitude. Observations and modeling support vortex height as an important TC structural characteristic.

North Atlantic Tropical Cyclone Intensification: Regional Drivers and Trends
Using 42 years of reanalysis data, we investigate regional, storm‐relative characteristics of three groups of Atlantic tropical cyclone intensification: slightly, moderately, and rapidly intensifying.

The Effects of Numerical Dissipation on Hurricane Rapid Intensification With Observational Heating [PDF]
Abstract The computational fluid dynamics of hurricane rapid intensification (RI) is examined through idealized simulations using two codes: a community‐based, finite‐difference/split‐explicit model (WRF) and a spectral‐element/semi‐implicit model (NUMA).
