Title:Unusually strong vertical motions in a Caribbean hurricane
Publication:Mon. Wea. Rev., 122, 2722-2739
Abstract:Unusually strong updrafts and downdrafts in the eyewall of Hurricane Emily (1987) during its rapidly deepening phase are documented by both in situ aircraft measurements and a vertically pointing Doppler radar. Updrafts and downdrafts as strong as 24 and 19 m/s, respectively, were found. Mean updrafts and downdrafts were approximately twice as strong as those found in other hurricanes.

Abstract:A nested analysis and barotropic hurricane track forecast model (VICBAR) was run for tropical cylcone cases in the North Atlantic basin during the 1989-93 hurricane seasons. VICBAR is compared to the other operational hurricane track forecast models and is shown to perform as well as each of these.

Title:Motion and evolution of binary tropical cyclones in a coupled atmosphere-ocean model
Publication:Mon. Wea. Rev., 123, 1345-1363
Abstract:The interaction of binary tropical cyclones (TC) is investigated using a coupled TC-ocean movable nested-grid model. The model consists of an eight-layer atmospheric model in the sigma coordinate system and three-layer primitive equation ocean model. There are five meshes in the TC model. The outermost domain (3840 km x 3840 km) is motionless. For the description of each TC in a TC pair, two telescopically nested meshes of finer resolution are used.

Abstract:Potential vorticity (PV) analyses for Hurricane Gloria of 1985 are derived from nested objective wind analyses of Omega dropwindsonde and airborne Doppler radar data. The analyses resolve eyewall-scale features in the inner vortex core and embed analyses of these features within the larger-scale environment.

Title:Tropical cyclone eye thermodynamics
Publication:Mon. Wea. Rev., 126, 3053-3067
Abstract:In intense tropical cyclones, sea level pressures at the center are 50-100 hPa lower than outside the vortex, but only 10-30 hPa of the total pressure fall occurs inside the eye between the eyewall and the senter. Warming by dry subsidence accounts for this fraction of the total hydrostatic pressure fall.

Abstract:Numerical simulations were performed with the Pennsylvania State University/National Center for Atmospheric Research Meoscale Model Version 5 (MM5) to study the impact of initial conditions, satellite-derived rain assimilation, and cumulus parameterization on Hurricane Florence (1988). A few modifications were made to the j. Manobianco et al.

In this study, the results of a 72-h explicit simulation of Hurricane Andrew (1992) with a grid size of 6 km are examined to explore the inner-core axisymmetric and asymmetric structures of the storm during its rapid deepening stage.
