Study on the structure of tropical cyclones as they intensify published in Monthly Weather Review
This new study follows up on a recently-published study led by Michel Fischer that looked at the relationship between the tilt of tropical cyclone (TC) vortices and intensification. Both studies used a database of airborne tail Doppler radar (TDR) data collected by NOAA’s P-3 aircraft, spanning multiple decades, to examine the wind and rainfall structures of TCs and how they relate to […]

Ship of Opportunity Program (SOOP) <!-- Collecting Upper Ocean Measurements through International Partnerships --> SCROLL TO LEARN MORE What We Do Ships at sea rely on real-time, accurate, and detailed marine forecasts to operate safely and efficiently. These forecasts depend heavily on continuous and precise ocean observations. Commercial mariners play a crucial role in collecting [...]GOMECC

The observing system will be [...]
Study showing improvements to tropical cyclone forecasts in NOAA’s new Hurricane Analysis and Forecast System released online in Weather and Forecasting
A new forecast model, the Hurricane Analysis and Forecast System (HAFS), was introduced during the 2023 hurricane season. We found that the cloud microphysics (how ice and water behave in clouds) had large impacts on track forecasts and some impacts on structure and intensity forecasts. The boundary layer physics had a notable impact on the […]
