The Navy's Next-Generation Tropical Cyclone Model

Abstract

The long-term goal of this project is to develop a robust high-resolution air-ocean coupled tropical cyclone (TC) data assimilation and prediction system that is able to assimilate the wide variety of available in-situ and remotely-sensed observations to analyze and predict TC structure and intensity changes in an operational environment.
