Effects of the reduced air-sea drag coefficient in high winds on the rapid intensification of tropical cyclones and bimodality of the lifetime maximum intensity
The air-sea drag coefficient (Cd) is closely related to tropical cyclone (TC) intensification. Several recent studies suggested that the Cd decreases in winds greater than 33 m s−1. The effects of Cd reduction in high winds on TC intensity, especially rapid intensification (RI) and the lifetime maxi...
