John Cangialosi presented a seminar on ”A detailed look at the National Hurricane Center’s verification procedure” ABSTRACT: An explanation of the verification procedures performed at the National Hurricane Center (NHC) will be presented. In addition, a regional verification will also be shown discussing the biases of the NHC forecasts and the models over the past five years. An […]

This paper provides the first estimate of the horizontal turbulent mixing length using in-situ aircraft observations in the boundary layer of very intense hurricanes. The horizontal mixing length have been found by recent numerical studies to be very important for simulating hurricane intensity. The results from Zhang and Montgomery (2012) thus will provide useful guidance […]
