a) The first purpose of this study is to elucidate the physical mechanisms underlying changes in hurricane structure and intensity, including rapid deepening and eyewall replacement cycles. Specifically, the role of cumulus convection and the atmospheric boundary layer in the evolution of outward-propagating Rossby wave disturbances and their interactions with a developing hurricane is being in...

Abstract Meteotsunamis are long waves generated by displacement of a water body due to atmospheric pressure disturbances that have similar spatial and temporal characteristics landslide tsunamis. NAMI DANCE solves the nonlinear shallow equations is widely used numerical model simulate tsunami seismic origin. Several validation studies showed it highly capable representing generation, propagatio...

This paper assesses the evolution of storminess along the northern coast of the Iberian Peninsula through the calculation of extreme (1%) Total Water Levels (eTWL) on both observed (tide gauge and buoy data) and hindcasted (SIMAR-44) data. Those events were first identified and then characterized in terms of oceanographic parameters and atmospheric circulation features. Additionally, an analysi...

Large-amplitude seiches (up to 40 cm) were recorded at a tide-gauge inside Bakar Bay from 19–21 August 2006. They were analysed using available tide-gauge and meteorological (air pressure and wind, vertical sounding) data. Sea level and air pressure spectra showed simultaneous increases of energy in the periods in which the seiches of both Bakar Bay (about 20 min) and Rijeka Bay (ca. 2 h) occur...

Practical autonomous aerial refueling between unmanned tanker and receiver aircraft using the probe-anddrogue method requires a reliable relative position sensor integrated with a robust relative navigation and control algorithm. The system must provide successful docking in the presence of disturbances caused by both the tanker wake vortex and atmospheric turbulence. This paper develops a refe...

The sequestration of atmospheric carbon (C) in forests has partially offset C emissions in the United States (US) and might reduce overall costs of achieving emission targets, especially while transportation and energy sectors are transitioning to lower-carbon technologies. Using detailed forest inventory data for the conterminous US, we estimate forests' current net sequestration of atmospheri...

Robots that operate in real-world conditions often perform complex tasks in the presence of stochastic disturbances. The source of the disturbances can be widely varied, including but not limited to, hardware imperfections, atmospheric changes, and measurement inaccuracies. These disturbances pose a great control challenge because stochastic drift induces changes in the robot’s speed and direct...
