Cluster analysis of post-landfall tracks of landfalling tropical cyclones over China by Zhang, W., Leung, Yee-Hong, Wang, Y.

“…In this paper, we apply finite-mixture-model-based clustering algorithms to cluster post-landfall tracks of tropical cyclones (TCs) making landfall over China. Because existing studies find that landfall surfaces or elevations affect post-landfall TC movements, we also take account of elevations in addition to time orders in this model. …”

Tropical Cyclone-Driven Sediment Dynamics Over the Australian North West Shelf by Dufois, F., Lowe, R., Branson, P., Fearns, Peter

Invited Perspective: Uncovering the Hidden Burden of Tropical Cyclones on Public Health Locally and Worldwide by Parks, Robbie M., Guinto, Renzo R *

“…As climate change and health researchers of Filipino heritage, we both are all too directly familiar with the cycles of devastation that typhoons (such as Typhoon Haiyan1 in 2013 and Typhoon Noru2 in 2022) and other tropical cyclones can leave in their path. For our families, the destruction wrought by tropical cyclones has manifested as downed trees, damaged or destroyed homes, and uprooted lives. …”

Investigating the Australian Bureau of Meteorology GMS satellite archive for use in tropical cyclone reanalysis by Broomhall, Mark, Berzins, B., Grant, I., Majewski, L., Willmott, M., Burton, A., Paterson, L., Santos, B., Jones, D., Kuleshov, Y.

“…McIDAS is the principal display and analysis tool utilised by the Bureau and is currently used to analyse tropical cyclone (TC) data received from satellites. This study is concentrated on data calibration from Geostationary Meteorological Satellite (GMS) 1 to 3 for the years 1981 to 1989 as these data had recently been obtained from the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) in VISSR format. …”

WMO Assessment of Weather and Climate Mortality Extremes: Lightning, Tropical Cyclones, Tornadoes, and Hail by Cerveny, R., Bessemoulin, P., Burt, C., Cooper, M., Cunjie, Z., Dewan, Ashraf, Finch, J., Holle, R., Kalkstein, L., Kruger, A., Lee, T., Martínez, R., Mohapatra, M., Pattanaik, D., Peterson, T., Sheridan, S., Trewin, B., Tait, A., Abdel Wahab, M.M.

“…A World Meteorological Organization (WMO) Commission for Climatology international panel was convened to examine and assess the available evidence associated with five weather-related mortality extremes: 1) lightning (indirect), 2) lightning (direct), 3) tropical cyclones, 4) tornadoes, and 5) hail. After recommending for acceptance of only events after 1873 (the formation of the predecessor of the WMO), the committee evaluated and accepted the following mortality extremes: 1) “highest mortality (indirect strike) associated with lightning” as the 469 people killed in a lightning-caused oil tank fire in Dronka, Egypt, on 2 November 1994; 2) “highest mortality directly associated with a single lightning flash” as the lightning flash that killed 21 people in a hut in Manica Tribal Trust Lands, Zimbabwe (at time of incident, eastern Rhodesia), on 23 December 1975; 3) “highest mortality associated with a tropical cyclone” as the Bangladesh (at time of incident, East Pakistan) cyclone of 12–13 November 1970 with an estimated death toll of 300 000 people; 4) “highest mortality associated with a tornado” as the 26 April 1989 tornado that destroyed the Manikganj district, Bangladesh, with an estimated death toll of 1300 individuals; and 5) “highest mortality associated with a hailstorm” as the storm occurring near Moradabad, India, on 30 April 1888 that killed 246 people. …”

A High-Resolution Simulation of Asymmetries in Severe Southern Hemisphere Tropical Cyclone Larry (2006) by Ramsay, H., Leslie, Lance, Kepert, J.

“…Advances in observations, theory, and modeling have revealed that inner-core asymmetries are a common feature of tropical cyclones (TCs). In this study, the inner-core asymmetries of a severe Southern Hemisphere tropical cyclone, TC Larry (2006), are investigated using the fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University-National Center for Atmospheric Research Mesoscale Model (MM5) and the Kepert-Wang boundary layer model. …”

The Impacts of Satellite Remotely Sensed Winds and Total Precipitable Vapour in WRF Tropical Cyclone Track Forecasts by Ren, Diandong

“…This study assesses the impact assimilating the scatterometer near-surface wind observations and total precipitable water from the SSMI, into WRF on genesis and track forecasting of four tropical cyclones (TCs). These TCs are selected to be representative of different intensity categories and basins. …”

Links between Tropical Cyclone Activity and Madden–Julian Oscillation Phase in the North Atlantic and Northeast Pacific Basins by Barrett, B., Leslie, Lance

“…As a 40- to 50-day oscillation, the MJO is also known to influence tropical phenomena, including tropical cyclone (TC) activity in various TC basins. The links between the MJO and multiple measures of TC activity, including genesis, landfall, and an integrative accumulated cyclone energy (ACE) index, were quantified for multiple TC-formation basins across the Western Hemisphere, including the North Atlantic and northeast Pacific Ocean and subbasins, for the period 1978–2006. …”

Changes in tropical cyclone activity over Northwest Western Australia in the past 50 years and a view of the future 50 years by Ren, Diandong, Leslie, L.

“…In the first half of this research, this study examines the trend in tropical cyclone (TC) activity over the economically important northwest Western Australia (NWA) TC basin (equator–40°S, 80°–140°E) based on statistical analyses of the International Best Track Archive for Climate Stewardship (IBTrACS) and large-scale environmental variables, which are known to be closely linked to the formation and longevity of TCs, from NCEP–NCAR reanalyses. …”
