Tropical cyclone size in observations and in radiative-convective equilibrium
… cyclones due to wind, storm surge, and inland freshwater flooding. This work explores size, defined as the radius of vanishing wind, in observations and at equilibrium in an idealized numerical model. First, a climatology of size is created from the QuikSCAT database of near-surface wind …

Interactions between rivers and coastal margins in the Alaskan Arctic
… One of these features is representative of freshwater flooding on ice which was found to persist in Stefansson Sound until late July. This floodwater is characterized by decreased reflectance in the blue portion of the visible light spectrum which indicates strong absorption by organic …

Investigation of climate change impact on hurricane wind and freshwater flood risks using machine learning techniques
… on hurricane wind and rain-ingress risk and freshwater flood risk on residential buildings across the southeastern U.S. coastal states. To address the challenge of computational inefficiency, surrogate models are developed using machine learning techniques for evaluating wind and freshwater …
