Characteristics of Deep Tropical and Subtropical Convection from Nadir-Viewing High-Altitude Airborne Doppler Radar (2010, unknown): “Reﬂectivities were corrected for attenuation using the ‘‘hybrid’’ surface reference approach (Iguchi and Meneghini 1994).”
Multiscale Observations of Hurricane Dennis (2005): The Effects of Hot Towers on Rapid Intensification (2010, background): “As discussed in section 1, HTs add a large source of vertical vorticity 1 (Reasor et al. 2005; Montgomery et al. 2006; Houze et al. 2009) or tangential wind into the background vortex that increases I 2 and leads to stronger resistance to parcel displacement in the radial direction.”
Clouds in Tropical Cyclones (2010, background): “Example of a vortical hot tower An example of vortical hot tower has been documented with airborne Doppler radar by Houze et al. (2009) in an MCS located in the depression that became Hurricane Ophelia (2005).”
Multiscale Structure and Evolution of Hurricane Earl (2010) during Rapid Intensification (2015, background): “…Zhang 2013; Zhang and Chen 2012; Guimond et al. 2010; Heymsfield et al. 2001) and to the stretching and subsequent axisymmetrization of low-level vorticity collocated with the updraft in vortical hot towers (VHTs; Houze et al. 2009; Reasor et al. 2009; Montgomery et al. 2006;Hendricks et al. 2004).”
