abstract

  • Reports numerical simulations of the hurricane vortex by an axisymmetric, nonhydrostatic numerical model with 2 km maximum horizontal resolution. Moist convection is modeled explicitly using two different microphysical parameterizations. The first simulates liquid water processes only, whereas the second includes ice processes as well.-from Authors
