Remotely Sensed Tropical Cyclone Structure/Intensity Changes

Abstract

The long-term goal is to routinely map the life cycle of a tropical cyclone s (TC) three-dimensional (3-D) structure and intensity changes via satellite remote sensing data for both real-time analyses and as input to numerical weather prediction (NWP) models.
