Self-Stratification of Tropical Cyclone Outflow. Part I: Implications for Storm Structure (2011, methodology): “The most sophisticated of these, developed originally by Lilly, is based on conservation of energy, entropy, and angular momentum above the boundary layer and is reviewed in Bister and Emanuel (1998) and Emanuel (2004).”
ENSO Influence on Atlantic hurricanes via tropospheric warming (2004, methodology): “Due to a spurious jump in the NCEP tropospheric temperature in 1979 [Bister and Emanuel, 2002] at the introduction of satellite data, the most current 25 years (1979–2003) is chosen for this study.”
The Hurricane—Climate Connection (2008, background): “This bound, referred to as the “potential intensity,” has the units of velocity and is a function of the sea surface temperature and the profile of temperature through the troposphere and lower stratosphere (Bister and Emanuel 2002); it is a far more physically based quantity than SST.”
Effects of Surface Exchange Coefficients and Turbulence Length Scales on the Intensity and Structure of Numerically Simulated Hurricanes (2012, methodology): “The nominal potential intensity (PI) for this initial environment, using the method of Bister and Emanuel (2002), is 44 m s21 assuming Ck/Cd 5 0.5, and PI is 70 m s 21 assuming Ck/Cd 5 1.”
