Simulations of baroclinic wave life cycles are performed in order to illustrate the wave evolution of a cyclone and diagnose possible unbalanced flow associated with the destabilization of an upper-level jet. Development of the...
While coastal areas along the United States Atlantic and Gulf Coasts have become increasingly accustomed to dealing with landfalling hurricanes and tropical storms, populations further inland can often be surprised by powerful storms...
Coherent Tropopause Disturbances (CTD's) have been observed to play a central role in both extratropical cyclogenesis and the dynamics of jet streaks. Recent observational studies have quantified the existence of CTD's by locating...
One of the defining characteristics of the extratropical transition of tropical cyclones is the transition of the warm core thermal structure associated with the tropical cyclone into an initially cold core thermal structure associated...
As understanding of tropical cyclone (TC) evolution both during and beyond the tropical phase improves, forecasting and analysis techniques are adjusted accordingly. While these changes hopefully lead to more accurate forecasts, they...
Idealized three-dimensional numerical simulations of deep moist convection in the presence of a symmetric midlevel vortex are analyzed to understand the evolution of system-scale vertical vorticity during the very early stages of...
This study utilizes the FLEXPART Lagrangian Particle Dispersion Model that was adapted to ingest output from the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) meteorological model. We perform four series of simulations over Iran and surrounding...
A more versatile and robust technique is developed for determining area averaged surface vorticity based on vector winds from the SeaWinds scatterometer on the QuikSCAT satellite. This improved technique is discussed in detail and...
