An Update on the Influence of Natural Climate Variability and Anthropogenic Climate Change on Tropical Cyclones September 1, 2023 A substantial number of studies have been published since the Ninth International Workshop on Tropical Cyclones (IWTC-9) in 2018, improving our understanding of the effect of climate change on…
Tropical Cyclogenesis: Controlling Factors and Physical Mechanisms September 1, 2023 In this review, advances in the understanding of the controlling factors and physical mechanisms of tropical cyclogenesis (TCG) are summarized from recent (2018–2022) research on TCG, as…
Subseasonal Prediction Framework for Tropical Cyclone Activity in the Solomon Islands Region July 8, 2023 Recently, we developed seasonal prediction schemes with improved skill to predict tropical cyclone (TC) activity up to 3 months in advance for the Solomon Islands (SI)…
Projections of Synoptic Anticyclones for the Twenty-First Century March 10, 2023 Synoptic anticyclones are a common feature of subtropical and midlatitude climate and are associated with descending air and clear conditions, while associated anticyclonic circulation anomalies…
Australia’s Future Extratropical Cyclones November 17, 2022 Extratropical cyclones, low pressure systems, are responsible for the majority of total and extreme rainfall in many regions outside the tropics, including in southern Australia….
Statistical Framework for Western North Pacific Tropical Cyclone Landfall Risk through Modulation of the Western Pacific Subtropical High and ENSO November 2, 2022 Seasonal predictions of tropical cyclone (TC) landfalls are challenging because seasonal landfall count not only depends on the number and spatial distribution of TC genesis,…
Coral Reef Exposure to Damaging Tropical Cyclone Waves in a Warming Climate July 11, 2022 Projections at global or ocean-basin scale indicate a future decrease in the number of tropical cyclones in northern Australia, but an increase in the proportion…
Will extreme wind events be more damaging in the future? September 2, 2024 We often hear statements in the media that extreme weather events are likely to increase in frequency and intensity as the world warms, but how…
Improving Australia’s Tropical Cyclone forecasts March 26, 2024 Climate Systems Hub researchers are working with the UK Met Office to evaluate global climate models used to predict tropical cyclones. Tropical Cyclone (TC) Jasper…
Understanding cyclones: science to protect our reef October 25, 2022 Global projections show there’ll be fewer but more intense tropical cyclones on average in northern Australia. What does this mean for our reefs? New research…
