There are now a range of potential data sources for wind and surface wave conditions within tropical cyclones. These sources include: in situ buoy data and remote sensing data from …
A parametric model for computationally efficient wave height estimation within tropical cyclone conditions is developed. An updated wind vortex model is used to force a moving …
Tropical cyclone risks are expected to increase with climate change. One such risk is extreme ocean waves generated by surface winds from these systems. We use synthetic …

Wind speed reconciliation across different wind sources is critically needed for extending available satellite wind records in Tropical Cyclones. The deviations between wind …
A series of numerical experiments with the WAVEWATCH III spectral wave model are used to investigate the physics of wave evolution in tropical cyclones. Buoy observations show …

Size of tropical cyclone (TC) is often asymmetric in nature. Yet, there is a lack of systematic, clean, and intuitive definition/expression to specify the asymmetry of TC size. Here, we …
Satellite altimeters can provide excellent global wind speed at 10 m above the sea surface (U10), however, the U10 becomes inaccurate and difficult to measure in tropical cyclone …
An existing parametric tropical cyclone wave height model is extended to be able to also predict peak wave period and peak wave direction at any location within 300 km of the …
Four scatterometers, namely, MetOp-A, MetOp-B, ERS-2, and OceanSat-2 were recalibrated against combined National Data Buoy Center (NDBC) data and aircraft Stepped Frequency …
