🌀Tropical Cyclone

I'm particularly interested in physical processes that leads to TC genesis and intensifiction.

Radiative Heating in Accelerating TC Genesis

Radiative heating can effectively accelerate TC development through uneven heating between the TC area and its environment.

Ice Cloud as a Precursor ofr Tropical Cyclone Intensification

Intensifying TCs have more cloud ice water content than those weakens.

🌨️Mesoscale Convective Systems

I'm focusing on MCSs over coastal West Africa

MCSs contribute over 80% of rainfall to the rainfall over coastal West Africa
