Diurnal Variations on the Initiation Time and Intensification Rate of Rapidly Intensifying Tropical Cyclones

AbstractThis study investigates whether the initiation time and intensification rate (INTRATE) of intensifying tropical cyclones (TCs) vary diurnally and how they are related to deep convection. TC intensifying events are identified and classified into slowly intensifying (SI) and rapidly intensifyi...
