Not that the data isn't available, the editorial constraints of the TC simply prevented me from showing that Deepwater Structures Inc. of Houston, now operating as OTECPOWER, offers a 100 MW design that uses a deepwater condenser similar to GWMM OTEC but without the counter-current heat return — for $ 450 million USD.

Gove Air Port is just now in the eye - wall of TC Nathan showing wind speeds of 37 knots with gusts just over 50 knots, putting it into Cat 1 [49 — 67 knots].

Finds a positive rate of TC intensification over all basins from 64 kt to first peak of intensity maxima (global average value = 104 kt)

All I get from this is that the frequency of TC will decrease, but the intensity will increase, and that there is no apparent relation to AGW.

Hydrographic observations can not provide TCHP fields needed to monitor this key parameter on a daily to weekly basis with wide coverage over regions of TC activity.

Finds that several climate models are now able to generate a good distribution of both TC numbers and intensities in the current climate

With AGW increasing SST's generally world wide, a cooling troposphere why would it not be plausible to conclude an increase in intensity of TC's.

A maximum likelihood fit yields a mean annual number of TC of 9, with 90 % confidence that the mean is actually between 8.5 and 9.5.

Seems to me the debate about AGHG global warming and increasing TC frequency / intensity / duration boils down to the fact that as sea surface temperatures, as well as deeper water temperatures rise, the wallop of any TC over warmer seas without mitigating circumstances like wind sheer and dry air off land masses entrained in the cyclone will likely be much more devastating.

The last «umph» will likely be much more devastating than the first «umph» of equal amount (can someone tell me what the unit of TC intensity is called?)

Then the media report there's a controvery re, say, the frequency or intensity of TC associated with GW, and the viewers think GW has been disproved once and for all.

Further complicating the use of these proxies is the fact that the deviation in oxygen - 18 ratios is affected by the amount of TC rainfall, the distance from the center of the cyclone at which the rain was produced, and the intensity of the cyclone — so I doubt these proxies alone will enable disentangling intensity and rainfall, tnough a large number of samples over an area could reveal information about the track and extent of the TC event.

As far as that goes, I find it interesting to note that in the wake of TC Larry, Australia's CSIRO is apparently projecting stronger storms but also * fewer * of them in the future.

I suspect detection of TC events by oxygen - 18 ratios is complicated by the fact that oxygen - 18 ratios are also affected by summer to winter precipitation ratios, although the very different timescales make it possible to disentangle such issues.

Fortunately, there is a tool called the Dvorak Technique which allows forecasters to make a reasonable determination of the TC intensity by simply analyzing a single infrared or visible satellite image, which is almost always available Velden et al., 2006).

It only tells us that the RCM can potentially provide a realistic description of TC behavior provided the correct input.

Actually, what alternative explanation is there for the increase of TC activity but anthropogenic climate change?

The root cause for the poor data is the severity of the TC conditions (e.g. high wind, rough seas) and the remoteness of these storms — the vast majority of which form and remain well away from most observing networks.

The limitations of the RCM for example, as the authors note, also lead to incorrect seasonal and geographic distributions of TC genesis.

To their credit, Knutson et al openly acknowledge this weakness in their treatment of TC intensity and PDI.

We found an early onset of TC across breeds, varying from 3 — 6 months of age, thus preceding sexual maturity, as observed before in other canine compulsions [22], [26], [41].

Almost half of our cases showed partially impaired responsiveness to owners» calls during TC bouts, and this was clearly associated with the severity of TC.

The more the dog chased its tail, the more difficult it was for the owner to stop the behaviour (Spearman correlation coefficient; N = 83, r = 0.38, p < 0.001) and the less it reacted to the owners» calls (Spearman correlation coefficient; N = 89, r = 0.27, p = 0.009), indicating that the severity of the TC affects the dog's awareness.

Almost half of the TC dogs showed lowered responsiveness during bouts and displayed also other types of compulsions more often than the controls.

Differences in general responsiveness may exist between breeds regardless of TC, however, we do not have the data to investigate the general responsiveness among the controls.

Short video clips of TC behaviour of BT, GS and SBT cases are included in the Movie S1, S2 and S3.

A recent clinical and questionnaire study of over 300 TC Bull Terriers showed a higher prevalence in males and found an association of TC with trance - like - behavior and episodic aggression [26].

In summary, we describe here the first large - scale questionnaire study of TC in a pet population sample including four different dog breeds.

This dataset indicated the typical onset of TC at 3 — 6 months of age in BT and GS and 6 — 24 months in MBT and SBT (Fig. 1).

Our study included 17 litters with two or more TC littermates, and we observed variation in the severity of TC also within a litter (Figure S1).

In addition to using the variable TCindex in the data analysis as a response variable, we also used a binary case - control set up (control = no history of TC and case = TC observed from «few time during the dog's life» to «multiple times per day» (TCindex ≥ 1) in the analysis.
