Ocean spray consists of small water droplets ejected from the ocean surface following
surface breaking wave events. These drops get transported in the marine atmospheric …

A century ago, meteorologists regarded tropical cyclones as shallow vortices, extending
upward only a few kilometers into the troposphere, and nothing was known about their …

Quantifying air–sea exchanges of enthalpy and momentum is important for understanding
and skillfully predicting tropical cyclone intensity, but the magnitude of the corresponding …

The coupled ocean–atmosphere–wave–sediment transport (COAWST) model is used to
hindcast Hurricane Ivan (2004), an extremely intense tropical cyclone (TC) translating …

The international research program “ReNovRisk-CYCLONE”(RNR-CYC, 2017–2021)
directly involves 20 partners from 5 countries of the south-west Indian-Ocean. It aims at …

Tropical cyclone track prediction is steadily improving, while storm intensity prediction has
seen little progress in the last quarter century. Important physics are not yet well understood …

A bulk air–sea flux algorithm couples the ocean and the lower atmosphere through flux
boundary conditions and can be used in various analyses and in numerical models. The …

This paper describes the results of an experimental and theoretical investigation into the
mechanisms by which spume droplets are generated by high winds. The experiments were …

Showing the record strengths and growth-rates, recent hurricanes have highlighted needs
for improving forecasts of tropical cyclone intensities most sensitive to models of the air-sea …

ABSTRACT A new version of the Coupled Ocean/Atmosphere Mesoscale Prediction System
for Tropical Cyclones (COAMPS®-TC) has been developed for prediction of tropical cyclone …
