Cyclones with tropical characteristics over the northeastern Atlantic and Mediterranean sea: analysis in present climate and future projections
Cyclones with tropical characteristics are low pressure systems showing characteristics of both baroclinic (extratropical) and diabatic (tropical) cyclones. Thus, they are within the continuum between the theoretical conceptual extreme of cyclones. Examples of these hybrid cyclones are subtropical c...

| Sumario: | Cyclones with tropical characteristics are low pressure systems showing characteristics of both baroclinic (extratropical) and diabatic (tropical) cyclones. Thus, they are within the continuum between the theoretical conceptual extreme of cyclones. Examples of these hybrid cyclones are subtropical cyclones (STCs) forming in the North Atlantic and medicanes of tropical likecyclones in the Mediterranean Sea.The scientific and forecasting community has recently focus on them due to their recognitionas weather damaging systems. They are associated with uncertainties and their relationship with climate change is not very well understood yet. Especially in the northeastern Atlantic (ENA) there is little knowledge of them. Therefore, this thesis aims to add further insight into their characteristics on both present and future climate in Anthropogenic Climate Change (ACC) context, with an additional evaluation of the tools that can be used for studying them in both climates... |
