Tropical Cyclone-Ocean Interactions: From Weather to Climate I Posters


Session ID#: 22255

Session Description:
Tropical cyclone (TC)-ocean interactions are critical for TC intensity changes because the ocean is the energy source for TCs. Air-sea interaction processes involve energy and momentum exchange between TCs and the ocean and are important on TC (i.e., short-term) and climate (i.e., long-term) timescales. On shorter timescales, TC-ocean interactions are critical for intensity forecasting. The intense winds of TCs also significantly impact the ocean through entrainment mixing and upwelling. On climate timescales, the evolving state of the ocean has strong implications for future TC activity projections and consequential societal impact. In particular, natural interannual (e.g., ENSO) and inter-decadal variability (e.g., the Pacific Decadal Oscillation and Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation) and global warming affect the ocean, TCs, and their interactions. This session welcomes submissions under the broad discipline of TC-ocean physical and biogeochemical interactions from weather to climate timescales. It intends to provide a friendly platform for interactions among oceanographers, atmospheric scientists, and climatologists in this multi-disciplinary field.
