Resolving Tropical Cyclone Intensity in Models (2018, methodology): “We adopt the solutions presented by Chavas, Lin, and Emanuel (2015) and Chavas and Lin (2016) and focus on the inner region (Emanuel & Rotunno, 2011) as a means to extend the wind radius observations inward toward the hurricane center.”
Influence of Tropical Tropopause Layer Cooling on Atlantic Hurricane Activity (2013, background): “…once again equated the boundary layer moist static energy with the saturation moist static energy of the free troposphere.1 In (4) Ts is the sea surface temperature and To is the ‘‘outflow temperature,’’ which is approximately the temperature near the ambient tropopause (Emanuel and Rotunno 2011).”
On hurricane parametric wind and applications in storm surge modeling (2012, methodology): “However, out of curiosity, we use another wind profile [Emanuel and Rotunno, 2011; see below for descriptions] to estimate the radius of the 12-m/s 6 of 19 wind outside Rm and apply it to the Holland et al. [2010] profile; then the two profiles give statistically similar wind and surge estimates…”
Recent Developments in the Fluid Dynamics of Tropical Cyclones (2017, unknown): “Emanuel (2012, p. 989) stated that Emanuel & Rotunno (2011) “demonstrated that in numerically simulated tropical cyclones, the assumption of constant outﬂow temperature is poor and that, in the simulations, the outﬂow temperature increases rapidly with angular momentum.””
Effects of Surface Exchange Coefficients and Turbulence Length Scales on the Intensity and Structure of Numerically Simulated Hurricanes (2012, methodology): “There is no clear impact on Rmax from either ly or Ck/Cd. Unauthenticated | Downloaded 12/31/22 06:15 PM UTC The analytic model of Emanuel and Rotunno (2011) also predicts no dependence on Rmax with Ck/Cd [at least, when assuming constant outer-vortex scale; see their Eq.”
