"I am a journalist myself, working for a public radio and television in the Netherlands. As a radio reporter Ivisited Bangladesh just after the cyclone Sidr hit the coastal area in November 1997 (…) Itravelled to the islands on a boat. On that boat were two boatmen and one of them started singing while we were sailing. As Igeotagged this song you can see exactly where it was. Iwas staying at that time in Pirojpur, took a taxi to the river and got a boat. Along tall typical motorboat. It was a journey of three-quarters of an hour during which he sang two songs."

Replication data for global population profile of tropical cyclone exposure during 2002 and 2019
<p>Tropical cyclones have far-reaching impacts on livelihoods and population health that often persist years after the event. Characterizing the demographic and socioeconomic profile and the vulnerabilities of the exposed populations is essential to assess health and other risks associated with future tropical cyclone events. Estimates of exposure to tropical cyclones are often regional rather than global and do not consider population vulnerabilities. Here, we combine spatially resolved annual demographic estimates with tropical cyclone wind fields estimates to construct a global profile of the populations exposed to tropical cyclones between 2002 and 2019. We find that approximately 560 million people are exposed yearly and that the number of people exposed has increased across all cyclone intensities over the study period. The age distribution of those exposed has shifted away from children (under-5) and towards older people (over-60) in recent years compared to the early 2000s. Populations exposed to tropical cyclones are more socioeconomically deprived than those unexposed within the same country, and this relationship is more pronounced for people exposed to higher intensity storms. By characterizing the patterns and vulnerabilities of populations exposed to tropical cyclones, our results can help identify mitigation strategies and assess the global burden and future risks of tropical cyclones.</p>

Dependence of tropical cyclone weakening rate in response to an imposed moderate environmental vertical wind shear on the warm-core strength and height of the initial vortex
<p>This study investigated the dependence of the early tropical cyclone (TC) weakening rate in response to an imposed moderate environmental vertical wind shear (VWS) on the warm-core strength and height of the TC vortex using idealized numerical simulations. Results show that the weakening of the warm core by upper-level ventilation is the primary factor leading to the early TC weakening in response to an imposed environmental VWS. The upper-level ventilation is dominated by eddy radial advection of the warm-core air. The TC weakening rate is roughly proportional to the warm-core strength and height of the initial TC vortex. The boundary-layer ventilation shows no relationship with the early weakening rate of the TC in response to an imposed moderate VWS. The findings suggest that some previous diverse results regarding the TC weakening in environmental VWS could be partly due to the different warm-core strengths and heights of the initial TC vortex.</p>
Data and models for "Center-fixing of tropical cyclones using uncertainty-aware deep learning applied to high-temporal-resolution geostationary satellite imagery" by Lagerquist et al.
<p><span><span><span>The file geocenter_models.tar contains all models comprising the GeoCenter ensemble: 3 convolutional neural networks (CNN), 3 isotonic-regression files (one for correcting each CNN’s mean estimate), and 3 more isotonic-regression files (one for correcting each CNN’s ensemble spread). Every model is found in a subdirectory whose names indicate which infrared (IR) wavelengths are used as input to the CNN. For example:</span></span></span></p> <ul> <li> <p><span><span><span>wavelengths-microns=3.900-7.340-13.300/model.weights.h5: An HDF5 file containing the trained CNN that uses data from bands 7, 10, 16 (corresponding to 3.9, 7.34, and 13.3 microns on the GOES ABI imager). The trained CNN can always be read by neural_net_utils.read_model() in the ml4tccf library (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.15116854).</span></span></span></p> </li> <li> <p><span><span><span>wavelengths-microns=3.900-7.340-13.300/model_metadata.p: A Pickle file containing metadata for the trained CNN.

In the ml4tccf code, I make a distinction between “isotonic_regression” (correcting the ensemble mean) and “uncertainty_calibration” (correcting the ensemble spread), but note that both models are isotonic regression and use the sklearn.isotonic.IsotonicRegression class. The trained uncertainty-calibration models can always be read by scalar_uncertainty_calibration.read_file() in the ml4tccf library. Again, note that there are technically two uncertainty-calibration models per CNN: one for spread in the </span></span></span><span><span><span><em>x</em></span></span></span><span><span><span>-coordinate, one for spread in the </span></span></span><span><span><span><em>y</em></span></span></span><span><span><span>-coordinate.</span></span></span></p> </li> </ul> <p><span> </span></p> <p><span><span><span>As mentioned above, every trained CNN can be read by neural_net_utils.read_model().

The input argument model_object should be the object returned by neural_net_utils.read_model(), and I suggest setting num_examples_per_batch = 10 to avoid out-of-memory errors. The only other input argument is predictor_matrices, which is a list of two numpy arrays. The first numpy array contains IR imagery centered at the first-guess TC center, and the second numpy array contains ATCF scalars. The first numpy array should have dimensions S (number of TC samples) x </span></span></span><span><span><span>3</span></span></span><span><span><span>00 (grid rows) x </span></span></span><span><span><span>3</span></span></span><span><span><span>00 (grid columns) x </span></span></span><span><span><span>9</span></span></span><span><span><span> (lag times) x 3 (wavelengths). Lag times should be in the following order: </span></span></span><span><span><span>240, 210, </span></span></span><span><span><span>180, 150, 120, 90, 60, 30, 0 min ago. Wavelengths should be in the order indicated by the subdirectory name. The numpy array itself should contain </span></span></span><em><span><span><span>normalized</span></span></span></em><span><span><span> brightness temperatures at the given lag times and wavelengths, following the grid specifications laid out in the journal paper (a </span></span></span><em><span><span><span>plate carrée</span></span></span></em><span><span><span> grid with 2-km spacing). The original IR data (brightness temperatures) must be normalized to </span></span></span><em><span><span><span>z</span></span></span></em><span><span><span>-scores using the same normalization parameters as in the journal paper, </span></span></span><em><span><span><span>i.e.,</span></span></span></em><span><span><span> those based on the training data. See details below. The second numpy array in predictor_matrices should have dimensions S (number of TC samples) x 9 (variables). The variables must in the order: absolute latitude, cosine of longitude, sine of longitude, TC intensity, minimum central pressure, tropical flag, subtropical flag, extratropical flag, disturbance flag. The journal paper contains details on all these variables in one table. These variables must come from A-deck files at the </span></span></span><span><span><span>second-</span></span></span><span><span><span>most recent synoptic time. Like the IR data, these ATCF scalars must be normalized to </span></span></span><em><span><span><span>z</span></span></span></em><span><span><span>-scores using the same normalization parameters as in the journal paper. See details below.</span></span></span></p> <p> </p> <p><span><span><span>Once you have predictions (estimated TC-center locations) from a CNN, you can bias-correct these predictions. To read the isotonic-regression model for the given CNN’s ensemble mean, use scalar_isotonic_regression.read_file() in the ml4tccf library. To apply the same model, use scalar_isotonic_regression.apply_models(). For the CNN’s ensemble spread, use scalar_uncertainty_calibration.read_file() and scalar_uncertainty_calibration.apply_models().</span></span></span></p> <p> </p> <p><span><span><span>To normalize the IR data, you will need the file ir_satellite_normalization_params.tar included with this dataset.

This is a NetCDF file, containing the full set of training values for all 5 ATCF variables that are normalized (the binary storm-type flags are not normalized). You can read this file using any of the standard Python methods for reading NetCDF files, such as xarray.open_dataset(). To normalize new ATCF data, you can use the method normalization._normalize_one_variable(), where the argument actual_values_training is the list of training values from a_deck_normalization_params.nc for the given variable, while actual_values_new is the list of values to be normalized (currently in physical units, to be converted to </span></span></span><em><span><span><span>z</span></span></span></em><span><span><span>-score units).</span></span></span></p>

Data from: Cyclone-anticyclone asymmetry of eddy detection on gridded altimetry product in the Mediterranean Sea
<p>We perform an Observing System Simulation Experiment that simulates the satellite sampling and the mapping procedure on the sea surface of the high-resolution model CROCO-MED60v40, to investigate the reliability and the accuracy of the eddy detection. The main result of this study is a strong cyclone-anticyclone asymmetry of the eddy detection on the altimetry products AVISO/CMEMS in the Mediterranean Sea. Large-scale cyclones having a characteristic radius larger than the local deformation radius are much less reliable than large-scale anticyclones. We estimate that less than 60% of these cyclones detected on gridded altimetry product are reliable, while more than 85% of mesoscale anticyclones are reliable. Besides, both the barycenter and the size of these mesoscale anticyclones are relatively accurate. This asymmetry comes from the difference of stability between cyclonic and anticyclonic eddies. Large mesoscale cyclones often split into smaller sub-mesoscale structures having a rapid dynamical evolution. The numerical model CROCO-MED60v40 shows that this complex dynamic is too fast and too small to be accurately captured by the gridded altimetry products. The spatio-temporal interpolation smoothes out this sub-mesoscale dynamics and tends to generate an excessive number of unrealistic mesoscale cyclones in comparison with the reference field. On the other hand, large mesoscale anticyclones, which are more robust and which evolve more slowly, can be accurately tracked by standard altimetry products. We also confirm that the AVISO/CMEMS products induce a bias on the eddy intensity. The azimuthal geostrophic velocities are always underestimated for large mesoscale anticyclones.</p>
Tree dynamic response and survival in a category-5 tropical cyclone: The case of super typhoon Trami
In the future with climate change, we expect more forest and tree damage due to the increasing strength and changing trajectories of tropical cyclones (TCs). However, to date, we have limited information to estimate likely damage levels, and nobody has ever measured exactly how forest trees behave mechanically during a TC. In 2018, a category-5 TC destroyed trees in our ongoing research plots, in which we were measuring tree movement and wind speed in two different tree spacing plots. We found damaged trees in only the wider spaced plot. Here, we present how trees dynamically respond to strong winds during a TC. Sustained strong winds obviously trigger the damage to trees and forests but inter-tree spacing is also a key factor because the level of support from neighboring trees modifies the effective "stiffness" against the wind both at the single tree and whole forest stand level.

TCRIP-MIM: Rapid Intensification Prediction for Tropical Cyclone by Combining Memory In Memory Network with Sequential Satellite Images
<p>This is the official repository for the paper TCRIP-MIM: Rapid Intensification Prediction for Tropical Cyclone by Combining Memory In Memory Network with Sequential Satellite Images. We use the publicly available dataset from Taiwan University (Bai et al., 2019) as experimental data, consisting of four channels of TC satellite images with a temporal resolution of 3 hours, whose preprocessing method is also publicly available. We use infrared and passive microwave TC satellite image sequences for our experiments, each divided into 24-hour segments (8 infrared and 8 passive microwave satellite images, 16 in total), preprocessing and enhancing data as noted above, so there is no experimental error due to different data preprocessing methods. In this study, the 2003–2017 TC dataset from various global basins was divided into training (1097 TCs, 43528 events), validation (188 TCs, 7884 events), and test sets (94 TCs, 3196 events).</p>
