Satellite Observations of Stratospheric Gravity Waves Associated With the Intensification of Tropical Cyclones
Abstract Forecasting the intensity of tropical cyclones is a challenging problem. Rapid intensification is often preceded by the formation of “hot towers” near the eyewall. Driven by strong release of latent heat, hot towers are high‐reaching tropical cumulonimbus clouds that penetrate the tropopaus...
