A new paradigm for intensity modification of tropical cyclones: thermodynamic impact of vertical wind shear on the inflow layer
An important roadblock to improved intensity forecasts for tropical cyclones (TCs) is our incomplete understanding of the interaction of a TC with the environmental flow. In this paper we re-visit the canonical problem of a TC in vertical wind shear on an f-plane. A suite of numerical experiments is...
