Observed Structure and Environment of Developing and Non-developing Tropical Cyclones in the Western North Pacific Using Satellite Data

Abstract

The long-term goal of this PI is to understand the physical processes of tropical convection, air-sea interaction and coupling of the atmosphere-ocean system in high-wind maritime regimes, with a particular emphasis on tropical cyclones. The ultimate goal is to better observe and predict tropical and subtropical weather systems.
