Increasing Flood Hazard Posed by Tropical Cyclone Rapid Intensification in a Changing Climate

Abstract Tropical cyclones (TCs) that undergo rapid intensification (RI) before landfall are notoriously difficult to predict and have caused tremendous damage to coastal regions in the United States. Using downscaled synthetic TCs and physics‐based models for storm tide and rain, we investigate the...
