Rapid intensification and the bimodal distribution of tropical cyclone intensity
Nature Communications, 2016 Tropical cyclones rarely achieve high intensities gradually. Here, the authors show that rapid intensification is relevant not only to short-term weather forecasting, but also to the relationship between tropical cyclones and climate.

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.(a) Organized convection: clouds are clustered at the southern edge of the domain, aligning with the warmest SST. Northeasterly winds prevail, facilitating convection confinement to the southern part of the domain. (b) ITCZ breakdown: the clouds are spread throughout the domain.

Indian and African monsoons: Trajectories and interactions
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.The catch basin of marine air particles of the Indian monsoon is the tropical Indian ocean, whilst that of the African monsoon is the east tropical Atlantic. However, the oscillations induced by the monsoonal interactions favour particle exchange between the two basins. These transitions are abrupt in the presence of stochastic resonance. The monsoonal

TROPICAL CYCLONE GENERATED CURRENTS
Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1986 AXCP data obtained during Hurricane Josephine in 1984 are analyzed in this paper. In addition, wind-driven currents at several XCP's during Josephine are simulated using a one-dimensional ocean current model.

Steamship Portland: X-Storms [PDF]
In this lesson students will discover what causes extreme storms such as the Portland Gale of 1898 and the Halloween Nor'easter of 1991. They will identify and explain three factors that contributed to extreme storm conditions in the northwest Atlantic ...

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.The change in the frequency of wet spells in tropical Australia in summer primarily contributes to the change in precipitation between wet and dry years. In the extratropics, both the frequency and intensity of wet spells are important, especially in winter.

Re‐Intensification of Seafalling Tropical Cyclones
Atmospheric Science LettersThe study of tropical cyclones re‐entering the ocean or making ‘seafall’ has been limited. Here, idealised simulations are used to study the re‐intensification of seafalling tropical cyclones.
