Advances in Hurricane Intensity Forecasting and Research Through the Use of Innovative Ocean Observing Technologies

Session ID#: 159456

Session Description:
Real-time data collected from ocean observing systems have shed light on the role of the ocean in hurricane intensity changes; however, upper ocean observing gaps remain and have led to difficulties in accurately representing upper ocean features and processes in numerical ocean models.  New and innovative ocean observing technologies have helped fill those gaps. The data collected are being used to improve operational ocean and coupled hurricane forecast models and will improve our understanding of and ability to forecast hurricane track and intensity.

This session invites submissions related to the use of innovative ocean observing technologies that advance hurricane intensity research and forecasts, including but not limited to: how the data from these technologies improve our understanding of upper ocean stratification and mixing processes; how air-sea interaction affects hurricane intensity; and improvements to the upper ocean representation in ocean and coupled hurricane forecast models.
