Download or read book Hurricanes and Typhoons written by Richard J. Murnane and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2004-12-01 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book surveys the past, present, and potential future variability of hurricanes and typhoons on a variety of timescales using newly developed approaches based on geological and archival records, in addition to more traditional approaches based on the analysis of the historical record of tropical cyclone tracks. A unique aspect of the book is that it provides an overview of the developing field of paleotempestology, which uses geological, biological, and documentary evidence to reconstruct prehistoric changes in hurricane landfall. The book also presents a particularly wide sampling of ongoing efforts to extend the best track data sets using historical material from many sources, including Chinese archives, British naval logbooks, Spanish colonial records, and early diaries from South Carolina. The book will be of particular interest to tropical meteorologists, geologists, and climatologists as well as to the catastrophe reinsurance industry, graduate students in meteorology, and public employees active in planning and emergency management.

Book Monitoring and Prediction of Tropical Cyclones in the Indian Ocean and Climate Change

Download or read book Monitoring and Prediction of Tropical Cyclones in the Indian Ocean and Climate Change written by U.C. Mohanty and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-10-12 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with recent advances in our understanding and prediction of tropical cyclogenesis, intensification and movement as well as landfall processes like heavy rainfall, gale wind and storm surge based on the latest observational and numerical weather prediction (NWP) modeling platforms. It also includes tropical cyclone (TC) management issues like early warning systems, recent high impact TC events, disaster preparedness, assessment of risk and vulnerability including construction, archiving and retrieval of the best tracking and historical data sets, policy decision etc., in view of recent findings on climate change aspects and their impact on TC activity. The chapters are authored by leading experts, both from research and operational environments. This book is relevant to cyclone forecasters and researchers, managers, policy makers, graduate and undergraduate students. It intends to stimulate thinking and hence further research in the field of TCs and climate change, especially over the Indian Ocean region and provides high-quality reference materials for all the users mentioned above for the management of TCs over this region.

Book Simulations Of Tropical Cyclone In Regional Climate Models

Download or read book Simulations Of Tropical Cyclone In Regional Climate Models written by Sun Yuan and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book studies the pitfalls of regional climate models in simulating track and intensity of tropical cyclone over western North Pacific for the East Asian summer monsoon climate. A number of sensitivity experiments related to tropical cyclone simulation with different model configurations and model physical schemes, including model resolution, model lateral boundary condition, effect of sea surface temperature, cumulus parameterization scheme and model microphysics scheme, as well as the features and the failure of tropical cyclone simulation in regional climate models were carefully analyzed with model output with high temporal resolution, to investigate shortcomings of the models, so as to come up with better models to simulate and study tropical cyclone track and intensity. The book is suitable for graduate students in meteorology with focuses in the tropical cyclone simulation, as well as professionals devoted to model development and study of tropical cyclone activities. Contents: Effects of Tropical Cyclones on Regional Climate Modeling Over East Asia in SummerLateral Boundary Buffer Zone and Its Effect on Tropical Cyclone TrackImpact of Cumulus Parameterization Scheme on the Tropical Cyclone TrackFeedback of Tropical Cyclone Activities on the Western Pacific Subtropical HighMechanism of Tropical Cyclone Track Sensitive to Planetary Boundary Layer SchemeSensitivity of Tropical Cyclone Track to Storm SizeModel Convergence in Simulations of Tropical Cyclone at Grey-Zone ResolutionsMechanism of Cumulus Parameterization Scheme on Model ConvergenceEffects of Inner and Outer Sea Surface Temperature on Tropical Cyclone Intensity Effects of Relative and Absolute SST on Tropical Cyclone Intensity Readership: Graduate students and researchers in the field of climatogy/meteorology and climate change. Keywords: Tropical Cyclone;Simulation;Regional Climate Model;East Asian Summer MonsoonReview: Key Features: The tropical cyclone topics in regional climate modeling has caused more and more attentionNo monograph on the tropical cyclone in regional climate model has ever been publishedThe book focuses on the mechanism of regional climate model's failure in simulating tropical cyclone, which has never been proposed

Book Tropical Cyclone Dynamics  Prediction  and Detection

Download or read book Tropical Cyclone Dynamics Prediction and Detection written by Anthony Lupo and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2016-11-02 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, tropical cyclones continue to bring destruction, as well as disruption, to societies that are exposed to their threat. This book represents a compilation of recent cutting-edge research on tropical cyclones and their impacts from researchers at many institutions around the world. This book contains new looks at tropical cyclone dynamics, the use of satellite-based remote sensing in the detection and climatology of tropical cyclones, and the modeling and prediction of tropical cyclones as well as their associated impacts. This book would make a nice addition to any course on tropical meteorology highlighting topics of interest in recent research on this topic.
