Description: Recent observational studies have revealed an exceptionally strong precipitation diurnal cycle during the boreal summer over the Gulf Stream. Diurnal peaks tend to occur in the early to late morning, with an oceanward phase propagation like what
is commonly found in the tropics. But other critical factors such as wind and temperature distribution remain unexplored, leaving a knowledge gap in our understanding of the complete structures of the diurnal cycle and the mechanisms involved. Here, we conduct
a numerical simulation for the first time on the diurnal cycle of precipitation over the Gulf Stream using a regional atmospheric model. In general, the main features of the precipitation diurnal cycle are well simulated, including the oceanward phase propagations
induced by the gravity wave. The precipitation diurnal cycle is essentially coherent with the diurnal variations of the wind in the low-, mid-, and upper-troposphere, suggesting that the diurnal cycle has a deep vertical structure. Additionally, a sensitivity
experiment by reducing the SST by 5K over the whole model domain reveals that the warm SST brought by the Gulf Stream from the tropics is important in generating the diurnal cycle in the atmosphere.</div>

Description: This project builds on the work of a previous masters student, Danny Wallace who used data collected from dropsondes in tropical cyclones to conduct a log-profile analysis for wind speed, potential temperature, and humidity in order to estimate
surface fluxes of momentum, sensible heat, and latent heat. This project works toward improving these estimates by improving the estimations of roughness length.</div>

Description: This project assesses the height adjustment of IWRAP (Imaging Wind and Rain Airborne Profiler) wind speed measurements from various altitudes in Atlantic tropical cyclones, considering different boundary layer assumptions. A secondary objective
is to investigate the patterns of near-surface vertical wind profiles and associated features to enhance understanding of the dynamics in the boundary layer.</div>
