Periodic Cycles of Eyewall Convection Limit the Rapid Intensification of Typhoon Hato (2017) by Rong Fang, Shumin Chen, Mingsen Zhou, Weibiao Li, Hui Xiao, Tang Zhan, Yusi Wu, Haoya Liu, Chaoyong Tu

“…Heating was dominated by the vertical advection associated with sensible heat and latent heat, which were controlled by the eyewall convection and structure. Of the three stages in each cycle, the vertical transport released the largest amount of latent heat in the first stage; consequently, the highest intensification rate occurred in this stage. …”
