<b>FY06-07 Achievements</b>
<p><ul>

<li>Finalized the software routines that are required to run the decay model 
in real-time

<li>Developed code to run an updated version of the Kaplan/DeMaria decay 
model to obtain real-time estimates of the maximum wind and
the radii of 64,50 and 34 kt winds  

<li>Ran the updated version of the decay model in real-time during the 2006 
hurricane season 

<li>Evaluated decay model performance on an independent sample of 11
hurricanes that made landfall in the Atlantic and E. Pacific basins 
during the 2004-2006 hurricane seasons

<li>Presented decay model results at the 61st Interdeparmental Hurricane 
Conference
