Effects of Convective Heating and Air-Sea Interaction on Tropical Cyclone Motion

Abstract

The long-term goal is to improve prediction of the tropical cyclone motion. The specific scientific objective of this study is to develop our physical understanding of the mechanisms by which convective heating and tropical cyclone-upper ocean interaction affect the motion and vertical coupling of baroclinic tropical cyclones.
