Diagnosing the Growth of Equatorial Typhoon Vamei (2001) from an Energy Standpoint

Surprisingly, on 27 December 2001, a storm named Typhoon Vamei formed near in Singaporean waters. An examination on the SSM/I-derived rainfall rates and air-sea parameters showed that significant higher latent heat release and air-sea energy flux during convective rainfall activities played a key ro...
