Description for Uncertainties and Limitations in Simulating Tropical Cyclones
Hardcover. This two-pronged research paper details a new approach to detecting and tracking extreme weather in climate models as well as applying an extreme-value statistical model to facilitate modeling assessment of possible changes in severe weather patterns. Series: Springer Theses. Num Pages: 78 pages, 15 black & white illustrations, 29 colour illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: RBP; UY. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 243 x 164 x 11. Weight in Grams: 280.
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 ... Read more
