George Bryan- Sept 17
Title: A mechanism for extraordinary wind gusts in tropical cyclones Abstract: Some extreme values of gust factor have been measured within the eyewalls of tropical cyclones, where gust factor is defined as the ratio of peak wind speed to average wind speed. In the famous case of Cyclone Olivia in Australia in 1996, a […]
