The Dynamics of Tropical Cyclones

Abstract

The broad objectives of this research effort are to improve our understanding of the dynamics of tropical-cyclone evolution and motion using a combination of analytic techniques, observational case studies and numerical model calculations, and to apply this knowledge to improve numerical forecasting algorithms.
