• Evolution of convective characteristics during tropical cyclogenesis 

      Kilroy, GerardORCIDiD (Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 2021-04-05)
      Four idealized, high‐resolution (500 m horizontal grid spacing), numerical simulations are used to investigate the evolution of convective structures during tropical cyclogenesis. The simulations all begin with a weak ...
    • Stable Isotope Composition of Cyclone Mekunu Rainfall, Southern Oman 

      Müller, ThomasORCIDiD; Friesen, JanORCIDiD; Weise, Stephan M.; Al Abri, Omar; Bait Said, Ali Bakhit Ali; Michelsen, NilsORCIDiD (Water Resources Research, 2020-12-14)
      Cyclone Mekunu hit the southern Arabian Peninsula in late May 2018 and brought rainfall amounts that accounted for up to 6 times the mean annual precipitation. Coming from the Arabian Sea, a quite underdocumented region ...
    • Tropical cyclone life cycle in a three‐dimensional numerical simulation 

      Smith, Roger K.ORCIDiD; Kilroy, GerardORCIDiD; Montgomery, M. T.ORCIDiD (Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 2021-08-16)
      An idealized, three‐dimensional, numerical simulation of tropical cyclone evolution in a quiescent environment on an f‐plane is used to explore aspects of the cyclone's life cycle in the context of the rotating‐convection ...
    • Upper‐level trajectories in the prototype problem for tropical cyclone intensification 

      Wang, ShanghongORCIDiD; Smith, Roger K.ORCIDiD (Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 2021-07-12)
      Data from an idealized three‐dimensional numerical simulation of tropical cyclone intensification are used to calculate Lagrangian air parcel trajectories emanating from the inflow layer that develops beneath the ...
