Tropical Cyclone Genesis and Sudden Changes of Track and Intensity in the Western Pacific

Abstract

The long-term goal of this project is to advance our understanding of the linkage between tropical cyclone (TC) sudden track and intensity changes and to identity precursors for such sudden changes in both the large-scale environment and storm-scale structure. Of particular interest are the physical mechanisms involved in sudden track and intensity changes and unique genesis and development processes in the western Pacific.
