• Effect of environmental shear, sea‐surface temperature, and ambient moisture on the formation and predictability of tropical cyclones: An ensemble‐mean perspective (2014, background): “…effect, which involves midlevel dry air [e.g., Tang and Emanuel, 2010; Riemer et al., 2010] and (b) the effect of vertical wind shear on the spatial distribution and intensity of convection and the feedback between convection and vortex strength [e.g., Wang, 2009; Fudeyasu and Wang, 2011].”
• The Roles of an Expanding Wind Field and Inertial Stability in Tropical Cyclone Secondary Eyewall Formation (2012, background): “These results support recent studies showing how higher values of relative humidity (Hill and Lackmann 2009), rainband diabatic heating (Wang 2009), surface moist enthalpy flux in the outer core (Xu and Wang 2010a), and initial vortex size (Xu and Wang 2010b) are effective means to increasing the…”
• Sensitivity of Tropical Cyclone Inner-Core Size and Intensity to the Radial Distribution of Surface Entropy Flux (2010, background): “As shown by Wang (2009), diabatic heating in active spiral rainbands could lower the surface pressure outside the RMW and reduce the pressure gradient across the RMW and, thus, weaken the storm but increase the inner-core size of a TC.”
• Influence of Environmental Humidity on Tropical Cyclone Size (2009, background): “…response to heating in spiral bands. d. Discussion Recent studies indicate that the fundamental nature of spiral bands is consistent with that of vortex Rossby waves (e.g., Guinn and Schubert 1993; Montgomery and Kallenbach 1997; Chen and Yau 2001; Wang 2002a,b; Chen et al. 2003; Wang 2009).”
