Organized kinetic energy backscatter in the hurricane boundary layer from radar measurements

The fluid mechanics of hurricanes strongly depends on boundary layer energetics due to the warm-core nature of the system with peak velocities located at lower levels. One barrier that has inhibited a more complete characterization of energy transfer in the boundary layer is a lack of observations t...
