Numerical simulations with WRF to study the impact of sea surface temperature on the evolution of tropical cyclones over Bay of Bengal/C.V. Srinivas, G.M. Mohan, D.V. Bhaskar Rao, R. Baskaran and B. Venkatraman . This book deals primarily with understanding monitoring and prediction of Tropical Cyclones (TCs) over the North Indian Ocean (NIO). There is special emphasis on TC genesis, intensification, movement and associated adverse weather like heavy rainfall and gale wind. It highlights current state of research on TCs over the NIO and recent improvements in early warning system due to advances in observational, analytical and numerical weather prediction techniques. The chapters in the book are authored by leading experts from research and operational environments. This book is relevant to TC forecasts and researchers, managers, policy makers, graduate and undergraduate students. The papers presented in the book intend to stimulate thinking and hence further research in the field of TCs, especially over the region. It provides high quality reference material for all the users for management of hazards due to TCs.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. Contents: Preface. 1. Tropical cyclones and climate change. 2. Climatological characteristics of tropical cyclones and future projection. 3. Tropical cyclone predictability: status and plan for operational forecasting. 4. NWP modeling for tropical cyclone forecasting. 5. Tropical cyclone impact, vulnerability and disaster management. Index. This book deals with recent advances in our understanding and prediction of tropical cyclogenesis, intensification and movement as well as landfall processes like heavy rainfall, gale wind and storm surge based on the latest observational and numerical weather prediction (NWP) modeling platforms. It also includes tropical cyclone (TC) management issues like early warning systems, recent high impact TC events, disaster preparedness, assessment of risk and vulnerability including construction, archiving and retrieval of the best tracking and historical data sets, policy decisions etc., in view of recent findings on climate change aspects and their impact on TC activity. The chapters are authored by leading experts, both from research and operational This book is relevant to cyclone forecasters and researchers managers policy makers and graduate and undergraduate students. It intends to stimulate thinking and hence further research in the field of TCs and climate change especially over the Indian Ocean region and provides high-quality reference materials for all the users mentioned above for the management of TCs over this region.
