Title

A modeling study on the impacts of Typhoon Morakot's (2009) vortex structure on rainfall in Taiwan using piecewise potential vorticity inversion

Abstract

In this study, the impacts of Typhoon Morakot's (2009) vortex structure on the extreme rainfall in Taiwan were investigated using piecewise potential vorticity (PV) inversion. The control (CTL) experiment, starting at 0000 UTC 7 August or 15 h before landfall, reproduced the event realistically and was validated against the observations. By altering the PV perturbation inside 750 km from its center, we conducted sensitivity experiments in which the size and circulation strength of TY Morakot were reduced/weakened in the initial field in several different ways.
