Effect of Varying Wind Intensity, Forward Speed, and Surface Pressure on Storm Surges of Hurricane Rita
Published 2021-01-01“…To understand the individual and combined influence of wind intensity, surface pressure and forward speed, a numerical experiment is conducted using Advanced CIRCulation + Simulating Waves Nearshore (ADCIRC + SWAN) by performing hindcasts of Hurricane Rita storm surges. The wind field generated by Ocean Weather Inc. …”

Impact of Microphysical Parameterizations on Simulated Hurricanes—Using Multi-Parameter Satellite Data to Determine the Particle Size Distributions that Produce Most Realistic Stor...
Published 2021-01-01“…Here we simulated 2005′s category-5 Hurricane Rita using the cloud-permitting community Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF) with two different microphysical schemes and with seven different modifications of the parametrized hydrometeor properties within one of the two schemes. …”
