The Roles of an Expanding Wind Field and Inertial Stability in Tropical Cyclone Secondary Eyewall Formation (2012, methodology): “The radial grid spacing expands outward using the grid stretching described in Nolan and Montgomery (2002) in order to provide higher spatial resolution near the inner core while retaining computational efficiency.”
Nonhydrostatic, Three-Dimensional Perturbations to Balanced, Hurricane-Like Vortices. Part II: Symmetric Response and Nonlinear Simulations (2003, methodology): “In (Nolan and Montgomery 2002b, hereafter Part I), a numerical method was presented that solved for the linearized, nonhydrostatic evolution of asymmetric perturbations to an axisymmetric vortex with arbitrary radial and vertical structure.”
The Weather Research and Forecast Model: software architecture and performance [presentation] (2005, methodology): “The coupled WRF/ROMS system has been used in follow-on scientific studies involving an idealized hurricane vortex described in [ 14 ].”
Reexamining the Near-Core Radial Structure of the Tropical Cyclone Primary Circulation: Implications for Vortex Resiliency (2005, background): “wind structure is expected to support a combined barotropic–baroclinic (shear) instability and related eyewall mesovortex phenomenology (Schubert et al. 1999; Montgomery et al. 2002; Nolan and Montgomery 2002; Kossin and Schubert 2001).”
