Journal ArticleDOI

Airborne Doppler Observations of the Inner-Core Structural Differences between Intensifying and Steady-State Tropical Cyclones

TL;DR: In this article, the inner-core structure of intensifying and steady-state tropical cyclones was examined using composites of airborne Doppler observations collected from NOAA P-3 aircraft missions.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Numerical Study of the Impact of Vertical Shear on the Distribution of Rainfall in Hurricane Bonnie (1998)

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the interactions between a storm and its environmental flow through a numerical simulation of Hurricane Bonnie (1998) that focuses on the role of vertical wind shear in governing azimuthal variations of rainfall.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the Characteristic Height Scales of the Hurricane Boundary Layer

TL;DR: In this article, data from 794 GPS dropsondes deployed by research aircraft in 13 hurricanes are analyzed to study the characteristic heightscales of the hurricane boundary layer, and the results show that there is a clear separation of the thermodynamical and dynamical boundary layer heights.
Journal ArticleDOI

Environmental Flow Impacts on Tropical Cyclone Structure Diagnosed from Airborne Doppler Radar Composites

TL;DR: In this article, the authors quantify the average magnitude and phase of the three-dimensional shear-relative kinematic asymmetry of observed TCs through a composite approach and demonstrate the statistical significance of the composite shear relative structure through a stratification of cases by shear magnitude.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Intensity Forecasting Experiment: A NOAA Multiyear Field Program for Improving Tropical Cyclone Intensity Forecasts

TL;DR: The Intensity Forecasting Experiment (IFEX) as discussed by the authors is a multi-year experiment to improve the prediction of tropical cyclone (TC) intensity change by collecting observations that span the TC life cycle in a variety of environments.
