Training and Research in Oceanic and Atmospheric Processes in Tropical Cyclones (TROPIC)

Abstract

The overarching goal of this research is to improve tropical cyclone (TC) forecast accuracy. Three principle objectives ar designed to achieve the long-term goal: 1. Improve observational data quality, 2. Analyze variations between model and observed values of ocean heat content, and 3. Evaluate sensitivity of statistical-dynamical model TC intensity forecasts to observed values of ocean heat content.
