TROPICAL CYCLONE ANALYSIS

This is a development project for using the Holland parametric model to produce wind and pressure profiles of Tropical Cyclones based on available data.

Getting Started

Tropical Cyclone (TC) attributes are estimated by corresponding operational agencies and centers around the world. For more info see the INPUT.ipynb and BestTrack.ipynb.

These data include location, windradii, pressure, max wind speed among others. However, there are missing info that preclude us from The proposed workflow consists of 4 steps :

  • Step 1 : From TC bulletins or Best Track create inpData file (see INPUT.ipynb, [Create inpData.ipynb](./Notebooks/Create inpData.ipynb), etc.).

  • Step 2 : Compute translational and Coriolis velocities in order to move to a stationary frame (see [Subtract translational and Coriolis velocity.ipynb](./Notebooks/Subtract translational and Coriolis velocity.ipynb)).

  • Step 3 : Estimate the parameters of the Holland Model and save outData file (see [Estimate Holland Parameters.ipynb](./Notebooks/Estimate Holland Parameters.ipynb)).

  • Step 4 : Produce the wind and pressure profiles (see Create Output.ipynb).

Prerequisities

The required data can be freely downloaded by the corresponding listed sources. See Notebooks and tests for more details.

A number of Python modules are required. A complete list is available in the file named requirements.txt.

Tests

No tests are available at the moment.

License

  • The project is released under the EUPL 1.2 license.
