The Vertical Structure of Tangential Winds in Tropical Cyclones: Observations, Theory, and Numerical Simulations
The vertical structure of the tangential wind field in tropical cyclones is investigated through observations, theory, and numerical simulations. First, a dataset of Doppler radar wind swaths obtained from NOAA/AOML/HRD is used to create azimuthal mean tangential wind fields for 7 storms on 17 diffe...
