Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During November 1967, an unusual set of twin tropical cyclones, ANNIE and GILDA, formed about the same time on opposite sides of the equator in the Western Pacific. They illustrate the unique role of satellite cloud photographs play in providing meteorologists with an important tool for studying tropical disturbances in various stages of their life cycles and their related environments. Satellite derived data, particularly cirrus-level wind estimates from cloud photographs, are used to recount the story of ANNIE and GILDA. It is the change which takes place in the cirrus-level wind field that enables the meteorologist to discern the step by step development of the respective cyclones as well as the interaction between the high-level winds of the two hemispheres and the twins themselves.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forecasts of tropical cyclone (TC) formation and intensity change in the north-western Pacific basin are often lacking in skill, in part due to the paucity of conventional oceanic observations that are assimilated into the operational models. This lack of observations has also constrained our understanding of how TC formation is governed by environmental processes. Recently, remotely-sensed observations from satellites have become a routine and important input to the global data assimilation systems. To our knowledge, this project represents the first time anyone has tried to evaluate the impact of targeted satellite data on TC forecasts using an automated dynamic targeted observing strategy. TCS-08 will afford us the opportunity to employ specially-processed satellite data along with observations collected in situ by the NAVY P-3, and other platforms, to investigate these objectives as they apply in the western north Pacific TC basin. The development of successful real-time strategies to optimally assimilate wind data from satellites will ultimately lead to the provision of improved initial and boundary conditions for the Navy's envisioned mesoscale coupled ocean-wave-atmosphere forecast model.

This book was released on 1970 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper presents up-to-date climatological statistics on the frequency, intensity, movement and environmental conditions associated with tropical disturbances and tropical cyclones of the western North Pacific. Data summaries are stratified into annual and monthly averages for two periods 1900-1945 and 1946-1968, with more emphasis placed on the latter period. The study also presents both a physical description and dynamical interpretation of the tropical cyclone statistics. In addition, data summaries are presented of conditions associated with the maintenance and intensification of trade wind disturbances into tropical cyclones as observed by weather satellites. A section is included on analysis and forecasting techniques for tropical disturbances and tropical cyclone genesis and maintenance. (Modified author abstract).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1974, was a pioneering study which summarized, within the pre-existing framework of atmospheric knowledge, the more significant findings that emerged from the first decade of climatological analyses of meteorological satellite data. It shows how these data complement and extend the traditional coverage of climatology. The book draws together in one volume research findings which were not previously available in book form and which significantly improve the understanding of climate, especially in regions that were conventionally data-remote.
