(2006, methodology): “For example, in analogy with terminology used to describe the surroundings of the stratospheric polar vortex, Guinn and Schubert (1993) refer to the region outside the hurricane’s high potential vorticity (PV) core as the surf zone, a zone where differential rotation causes PV wave breaking to occur”

- Secondary eyewall formation in two idealized, full-physics modeled hurricanes (2008, background): “Nonlinear numerical experiments of strong vorticity rings around a core of similar strength vorticity have shown the tendency of these intense rings to form polygonal patterns of strong, steady mesovortices [Schecter et al. ,1 999; Kossin and Schubert, 2001 ].”
- Clouds in Tropical Cyclones (2010, background): “The occurrence of the jet suggests that the rainbands have dynamics somewhat in common with eyewalls, which are tied closely to the RMW, and the outward-sloping updrafts seen in Figs.”
