Sentences with phrase «regional hurricane models»

That should dovetail into regional hurricane models, for example, shouldn't it?

Not exact matches

By working on the still - not - fully - cracked nut of estimating changes in hurricane frequency and intensity in a warming climate, Gabe and his colleagues ended up with a modeling system with seasonal skill in regional hurricane prediction.

By running their model, Fisk and his colleagues found that hurricanes hitting the eastern US have been a net source of carbon over the latter half of the 19th century, but provided a regional carbon sink through much of the 20th century.

My work is in risk management and emergency preparedness, and my question is about model uncertainty for local and regional planners in hurricane - prone regions.

Remember, for these «hurricane models», you are trying to deal with a much higher resolution (or more regional effects which are more weakly modeled so far) than «climate models» which deal with easier - to - model larger affects... ie.

In a series of Atlantic basin - specific dynamical downscaling studies (Bender et al. 2010; Knutson et al. 2013), we attempted to address both of these limitations by letting the Atlantic basin regional model of Knutson et al. (2008) provide the overall storm frequency information, and then downscaling each individual storm from the regional model study into the GFDL hurricane prediction system.

The GFDL hurricane model (with a grid spacing as fine as 9 km) is able to simulate the frequency, intensity, and structure of the more intense hurricanes, such as category 3 - 5 storms, much more realistically than the regional (18 km grid) model.

GFDL researchers have developed a regional dynamical downscaling model for Atlantic hurricanes and tested it by comparing with observed hurricane activity since 1980.

GFDL scientists focus on model - building relevant for society, such as hurricane research, weather and ocean prediction, seasonal forecasting, and understanding global and regional climate change.

Turning now to the question of the frequency of very intense hurricanes, the regional model of Knutson et al. (2008) has an important limitation in that it does not simulate such very intense hurricanes.
