This book presents a comprehensive summary of research on tropical
cyclone variability at various time scales, from intraseasonal and
interannual to interdecadal and centennial. It covers the
fundamental theory, statistics and numerical modelling techniques
used when considering climate variability in relation to tropical
cyclone activity. Major climate oscillations including the
Madden-Julian, El Nino, Atlantic Meridional Mode, and Pacific
Decadal oscillations are covered, and their impacts on tropical
cyclone activity in the Pacific and Atlantic oceans are discussed.
Hurricane landfalls in the United States, Caribbean and East Asia
are also considered. Climate models and numerical simulations are
used to show how prediction models of tropical cyclones are
developed, while looking to the future, particular attention is
paid to predicting how tropical cyclones will change in response to
increased concentrations of greenhouse gases. This book ideal for
researchers and practitioners in atmospheric science, climatology,
oceanography and civil and environmental engineering.
