Enlarging Rainfall Area of Tropical Cyclones by Atmospheric Aerosols
Abstract The size of a tropical cyclone (TC), measured by the area of either rainfall or wind, is an important indicator for the potential damage by TC. Modeling studies suggested that aerosols tend to enhance rainfall in the outer rainbands, which enlarges the eyewall radius and expands the extent...
