Tropical Cyclone Activity Downscaled from NOAA-CIRES Reanalysis, 1908-1958

A recently developed technique for deducing tropical cyclone activity from global reanalyses and climate models is applied to a reanalysis of the global atmosphere during the period 1908-1958. This reanalysis assimilates only sea surface temperature, sea ice, and surface pressure observations, which...
