Effects of Landfall Location and Approach Angle of an Idealized Tropical Cyclone over a Long Mountain Range

Effects of Landfall Location and Approach Angle of an Idealized Tropical Cyclone over a Long Mountain Range

Effects of landfall location and approach angle on track deflection associated with a tropical cyclone (TC) passing over an idealized and Central Appalachian Mountain is investigated by a series of idealized numerical experiments. When the TC landfalls on the central portion of the mountain range, i...
