Wind-stress coefficients over sea surface from breeze to hurricane

TL;DR: The empirical formula proposed recently relating wind-stress coefficient to wind velocity, C10 = (0.8 + 0.065 U10) × 10−3, appears to be applicable even in hurricanes as discussed by the authors.

Hurricane Hilda, 1964 II. Structure and Budgets of the Hurricane on October 1, 1964

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used data from five levels (900 to 180 mb) to depict the structure of a mature hurricane and derived estimates of the drag coefficient under hurricane conditions from a different formulation, utilizing the momentum budget in the inflow layer.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Multiscale Numerical Study of Hurricane Andrew (1992). Part V: Inner-Core Thermodynamics

TL;DR: In this article, the inner-core budgets of potential temperature, moisture, and equivalent potential temperature (e) were examined using a high-resolution (Δx = 6 km), non-hydrostatic, fully explicit simulation of Hurricane Andrew (1992) during its mature or intensifying stage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Satellite-Based Tropical Cyclone Intensity Estimation Using the NOAA-KLM Series Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit (AMSU)

TL;DR: In this paper, a maximum likelihood regression algorithm was used to explicitly correct for TC scan geometry and antenna gain pattern interaction issues (UTWA subsampling) unique to TC warm core applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of the Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit Measurements on Hurricane Prediction

TL;DR: In this paper, an algorithm to construct hurricane vortices using the Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit (AMSU-A) data was developed using a root-mean-square error of 1.5°C.

Global view of the origin of tropical disturbances and storms

TL;DR: A global observational study of atmospheric conditions associated with tropical disturbance and storm development is presented in this article, which primarily uses upper air observations which have become available over the tropical oceans in the last decade.
Journal ArticleDOI

Formation of tropical cyclones

Michio Yanai
TL;DR: In this article, a brief survey of the structure and dynamics of fully developed tropical cyclones is given, with emphasis on the warm-core thermal structure, which has a significant role in driving the three-dimensional circulation, and to kinetic energy of mature cyclones.
Journal ArticleDOI

Observed Ocean Conditions and Hurricane Hilda, 1964

TL;DR: In this article, a 7-day cruise was conducted over the area where hurricane winds had been observed, using the GUS III of the Galveston Biological Laboratory of the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries.
Journal ArticleDOI

Some Relations Between Wind and Thermal Structure of Steady State Hurricanes

TL;DR: In this paper, a two-layer model with inflow and outflow is considered and several simple integrations are performed to determine to what extent a steady, symmetrical hurricane model can be used to approximate observed storm structure.
