Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis works to evaluate the new rainfall algorithm that is used to simulate longterm tropical cyclone precipitation (TCP) climatology throughout the southeastern United States. The TCP climatology is based on a fleet of synthetic tropical cyclones developed using National Center for Atmospheric Research/National Centers for Environmental Prediction reanalysis data from 1980 to 2010 and the Coupled Hurricane Intensity Prediction System (CHIPS) model. The climatology is compared to hourly rainfall estimates from the WSR-88D Next Generation Weather Radar (NEXRAD-II) system. In general the synthetic TCP estimates show good agreement with radar-based observations. The rainfall algorithm appears to perform better at coastal locations versus inland ones, and in general has better agreement in the eastern locations considered in this study. In addition, the spatial dependence of radar rainfall estimates was addressed, and in general more extreme TCP-events exhibited a greater degree of event total precipitation variation at grid box-scale. Finally, preliminary work incorporating streamflow measurements as a metric for assessing TCP risk using the synthetic rainfall climatology was begun. Correlation between both grid box-specific and basin-average radar-based event TCP and surface streamflow measurements (from the U.S. Geological Survey National Water Information System) varied greatly, and was generally moderate, and future work should incorporate more thorough streamflow modeling in order to evaluate these comparisons.

This book was released on 2005 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over 50 years (1950-2004) of rainfall events associated with tropical cyclones that affected the central Appalachians were examined. Tracks of tropical cyclones (or tropical depression remnants) that passed within 500 km of the National Weather Service Office in Blacksburg, VA were compared with associated rainfall analyses of the Appalachian region in Virginia, West Virginia, and northwest North Carolina. In addition, surface and upper air analyses were examined for each event to help determine the relative influence of factors such as upslope flow, overrunning, and boundary interaction in relation to the cyclone track on the specific location and amounts of precipitation. The speed of movement across or along the Appalachians, as well as intensity of the cyclone (maximum wind speeds) as it passed through the analysis area, was also considered. The events were divided into categories based on the location the tropical cyclone made landfall. The seasonal distribution, e.g., which specific months are favored for tropical cyclone activity in the region, is also shown. These data were compiled in order to provide forecasters with a climatological database of tropical cyclones affecting the area, as well as the rainfall from these events. Results of the study will aid forecasters when assessing the potential effects of future tropical cyclone tracks and their rainfall impact on the Central Appalachians.
