The frequency with which tropical cyclones (TCs) occur controls all other aspects of tropical
cyclone risk since a storm that does not occur can do no harm. Yet this frequency is poorly …

Recent assessments agree that tropical cyclone intensity should increase as the climate
warms. Less agreement exists on the detection of recent historical trends in tropical cyclone …

Global models comprising the sixth-generation Coupled Climate Model Intercomparison
Project (CMIP6) are downscaled using a very high-resolution but simplified coupled …

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 …

Tropical cyclone (TC) activity is analyzed in 14 models from phase 5 of the Coupled Model
Intercomparison Project (CMIP5). The global TC activity in the historical runs is compared …

Responses of tropical cyclones (TCs) to CO 2 doubling are explored using coupled global
climate models (GCMs) with increasingly refined atmospheric/land horizontal grids (~ 200 …

All global circulation models (GCMs) suffer from some form of bias, which when used as
boundary conditions for regional climate models may impact the simulations, perhaps …

The modulation of tropical cyclone activity by the Madden–Julian oscillation (MJO) is
explored using an empirical genesis potential (GP) index. Composite anomalies of the …

While many studies of the effects of global warming on hurricanes predict an increase in
various metrics of Atlantic basin-wide activity, it is less clear that this signal will emerge from …

Midlevel ventilation, or the flux of low-entropy air into the inner core of a tropical cyclone
(TC), is a hypothesized mechanism by which environmental vertical wind shear can …
