Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is the second volume in a series of publications dedicated to “Tropical Cyclones and Their Impacts”.
On an annual basis, tropical cyclones affect thousands of people. The efforts of physical scientists are needed to help improve our ability to predict the location, intensity, and extent of these systems and their impact, while the work of social scientists is vital to better communicate warning messages, assess risk, and evaluate recovery strategies for after the event. This Special Issue of Atmosphere seeks research studies that examine tropical cyclones in all ocean basins, from formation to dissipation, including interactions with the surrounding atmosphere and underlying ocean and/or land surface. Both observational and modeling approaches are welcome. Manuscripts may also focus on the impacts of these systems, such as rainfall and associated flooding, storm surge, coastal erosion, and/or wind-related damage, including tornadoes. We invite manuscripts incorporating data from palaeoclimatological investigations in future scenarios under changing climatic conditions. We also wish to include studies that examine the impacts of tropical cyclones on people and the environment, including risk communication and evacuation, vulnerability and recovery, and effects on ecosystems, infrastructure, and health.
