The aim of the paper is to recognize tropical cyclone (TC) in the satellite cloud pictures according to the scale, shape and position of clouds. The study includes Canny edge detection, contour extraction and other techniques. The solutions are also established. The experiments show that the method can recognize the TC in the satellite pictures. The study is beneficial for TC track.展开更多

At present, only two parameters, maximum wind and radius of maximum wind, are used in NCAR-AFWA bogus for MM5 mesoscale numerical model. As a result, sometimes the outer structure of typhoon cannot be described accurately. The tangential wind profile of NCAR-AFWA bogus is improved by introducing radii of 25.7 m/s and 15.4 m/s, and then the track and intensity of Typhoon Nockten (No.0425) are simulated. The results show that the simulations of track and intensity of typhoon both have been improved by simultaneously introducing the radii in the tangential wind profile of typhoon bogus. At the same time, there is improvement in the gale wind range of the typhoon simulated.展开更多
