Directional Wind-Wave Coupling in Fully Coupled Atmosphere-Wave-Ocean Models: Results from CBLAST-Hurricane (2013, result): “…the CBLAST-Hurricane also support these laboratory results, indicating that C K / C D is at about 0.4–0.7, less than that predicted by Emanuel (1995), for intensifying storms such as in Hurricane Fabian (2003) (a major category 4 hurricane) reported by Drennan et al. (2007) and Zhang et al. (2008).”
Effects of Surface Exchange Coefficients and Turbulence Length Scales on the Intensity and Structure of Numerically Simulated Hurricanes (2012, background): “Several recent articles (e.g., Black et al. 2007; Zhang et al. 2008; Haus et al. 2010; Montgomery et al. 2010; Andreas 2011) have evaluated the conclusion from E95 that Ck/Cd is likely ;0.75 for intense TCs in nature because, according to E95, ‘‘. . .otherwise, the [modeled] wind speeds would be…”
Wind and waves in extreme hurricanes (2012, background): “While our results extend the denominator of that ratio to more extreme wind speeds, Ce is still unknown at wind speeds above 29 m/s in the field [Drennan et al., 2007; Zhang et al., 2008] and 38 m/s in the laboratory [Haus et al., 2010].”
Air-Sea Enthalpy and Momentum Exchange at Major Hurricane Wind Speeds Observed during CBLAST (2012, unknown): “Several potential errors were identified by sensitivity analyses using simulated data and the errors were optimally mitigated to reduce the uncertainty of the estimates.”
Sensitivity of tropical‐cyclone models to the surface drag coefficient in different boundary‐layer schemes (2014, background): “…the surface drag and heat and moisture exchange coefficients are modified to fit the results of the Coupled Boundary Layer Air–Sea Transfer experiment (CBLAST; Black et al., 2007; Drennan et al., 2007; French et al., 2007; Zhang et al., 2008) to facilitate a proper comparison of the schemes.”
