On the origin of asymmetric dynamical processes and their relation to the structure and intensity change of hurricanes - a diagnostic study
To a first approximation hurricanes can be considered as axisymmetric vor- tices. However, asymmetries often accompany the symmetric circulation. Spiral rainbands, elliptical eyewalls, polygonal eyewalls, secondary eyewalls, mesovortices, and deep rotating convective clouds are examples of such asym...
