Exploring Potential Applications of Quikscat Surface Winds and Gps Radio Occultation Data to Tropical Cyclone Initialization and Prediction

Two emerging datasets, QuikSCAT surface winds and Global Positioning System (GPS) radio occultation (RO) vertical soundings, have the potential to improve tropical cyclone (TC) initialization and, in turn, improve TC prediction. QuikSCAT surface wind with high horizontal resolution and GPS RO temper...
