Evolution of TCSP Research Evolution of TCSP Research GoalsGoals
CAMEX-3• Inner core dynamics• Synoptic flow environment• Landfalling intensity change• Genesis environment
CAMEX-4• Rapid intensification• Storm movement• Structure and dynamics• Scale interactions• Remote sensing techniques
Improve the understanding and prediction of tropical cyclone genesis, intensity, motion, rainfall potential, and landfall impacts by remote and in situ sensing of three phases of water from spaceborne and airborne platforms
