Book Synopsis Uncertainties and Limitations in Simulating Tropical Cyclones by : Asuka Suzuki-Parker
Download or read book Uncertainties and Limitations in Simulating Tropical Cyclones written by Asuka Suzuki-Parker and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-01-05 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The thesis work was in two major parts: development and testing of a new approach to detecting and tracking tropical cyclones in climate models; and application of an extreme value statistical approach to enable assessment of changes in weather extremes from climate models. The tracking algorithm applied a creative phase-space approach to differentiate between modeled tropical cyclones and their mid-latitude cousins. A feature here was the careful attention to sensitivity to choice of selection parameters, which is considerable. The major finding was that the changes over time were relatively insensitive to these details. This new approach will improve and add confidence to future assessments of climate impacts on hurricanes. The extremes approach utilized the Generalized Pareto Distribution (one of the standard approaches to statistics of extremes) applied to present and future hurricane distributions as modeled by a regional climate model, then applied the changes to current observations to extract the changes in the extremes. Since climate models cannot resolve these extremes directly, this provides an excellent method of determining weather extremes in general. This is of considerable societal importance as we are most vulnerable to such extremes and knowledge of their changes enables improved planning and adaptation strategies.

Book Synopsis Hurricanes and Climate Change by : Jennifer M. Collins
Download or read book Hurricanes and Climate Change written by Jennifer M. Collins and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-02-20 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides research that shows tropical cyclones are more powerful than in the past with the most dramatic increases occurring over the North Atlantic and with the strongest hurricanes. Although such increases are correlated with warming oceans and are consistent with the thermodynamic theory of hurricane intensity, there remains doubt about the interpretation, integrity, and meaning of these results. Arising from the 5th International Summit on Hurricanes and Climate Change, this book contains new research on topics related to hurricanes and climate change. Bringing together international leading academics and researchers on various sides of the debate, the book discusses new research and expresses opinions about what is happening and what might happen in the future with regard to regional and global hurricane (tropical cyclone) activity.

Book Synopsis An Assessment of Uncertainties and Limitations in Simulating Tropical Cyclone Climatology and Future Changes by : Asuka Suzuki-Parker
Download or read book An Assessment of Uncertainties and Limitations in Simulating Tropical Cyclone Climatology and Future Changes written by Asuka Suzuki-Parker and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent elevated North Atlantic hurricane activity has generated considerable interests in the interaction between tropical cyclones (TCs) and climate change. The possible connection between TCs and the changing climate has been indicated by observational studies based on historical TC records; they indicate emerging trends in TC frequency and intensity in some TC basins, but the detection of trends has been hotly debated due to TC track data issues. Dynamical climate modeling has also been applied to the problem, but brings its own set of limitations owing to limited model resolution and uncertainties. : The final goal of this study is to project the future changes of North Atlantic TC behavior with global warming for the next 50 years using the Nested Regional Climate Model (NRCM). Throughout the course of reaching this goal, various uncertainties and limitations in simulating TCs by the NRCM are identified and explored.

Book Synopsis Comparing Simulated, Synthetic Tropical Cyclones in Unstructured Climate Models Downscaled from 25 to 3 Kilometer Grid Spacing by : Corrine N. DeCiampa
Download or read book Comparing Simulated, Synthetic Tropical Cyclones in Unstructured Climate Models Downscaled from 25 to 3 Kilometer Grid Spacing written by Corrine N. DeCiampa and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tropical cyclones (TCs) can carry the risk of potentially devastating flooding from extreme precipitation - either through intense bursts of heavy precipitation, prolonged, constant precipitation, or a combination of both. Realistically replicating TCs in climate model simulations is necessary to further understand these high-impact scenarios. Previous studies mainly rely on simulating TCs in global climate models (GCMs) with 28 km grid spacing, though 3 km grid spacing is required to adequately simulate realistic TC features and small-scale dynamical processes. To understand the influence of model resolution on TC precipitation extrema and the potential hydrologic value-added, we filter intense, synthetic TCs making landfall in South Florida within an existing, ~300-year, 28 km climate model ensemble generated by the Community Atmosphere Model, version 5 (CAM5). The atmospheric states from this subset of TCs are used to generate dynamically downscaled versions of these same synthetic TCs at 3 km grid spacing by coupling CAM5 to the dynamical core of the Model for Prediction Across Scales (MPAS). Both models are derivatives of CAM and rely on CAMv5 physics to isolate the impact of model resolution on storm evolution. The 28 km "parent" simulations are compared to the 3 km "child" simulations to evaluate changes in TC structure, intensity, and precipitation extrema, with an emphasis on key metrics relevant to our stakeholders in South Florida. The 3 km child simulations outperform the 28 km parent simulations in qualitative storm structure, including realistic-looking eyewall and outer rainband features, whereas these features are poorly replicated in the 28 km parent simulations. Additionally, the 3 km child simulations indicate heavier precipitation over shorter time periods and also more prolonged precipitation overall than their 28 km parent counterparts. However, the value added by 3 km grid spacing with respect to storm total precipitation remains unclear. These findings suggest that this framework could be used for further investigation through ensemble validation.
