TY - BOOK AU - Grams, Christian Michael Warnfrid PY - 2015 TI - Quantification of the Downstream Impact of Extratropical Transition for Typhoon Jangmi and Other Case Studies AB - The impact of extratropical transition on the midlatitude flow is quantified based on potential vorticity inversion. The detailed study of Typhoon Jangmi (2008) reveals the diabatically enhanced net transport of low-PV air to the tropopause as the key physical process determining the direct impact of ET. Relocation experiments and further case studies show the crucial role of the relative position of the TC and the midlatitude flow for the downstream impact of ET and the reduced predictability.Umfang: VII, 334 S.Preis: €57.00 | £52.00 | $100.00 PB - KIT Scientific Publishing CY - Karlsruhe KW - Tropischer Wirbelsturm KW - mittlere Breiten KW - Strahlstrom KW - Potentielle Vorticity Inversion KW - Tropical Cyclone KW - midlatitudes KW - jet stream KW - potential vorticity inversion KW - Atmospheric Dynamics SN - 978-3-86644-776-9 DO - 10.5445/KSP/1000024940 SE - 368
