Abstract:

The characteristics of tropical cyclone seasons under enhanced greenhouse conditions (SRESBl, stabilisation at 550 ppmv) have been examined using results from five CMIP3 models. The tropical cyclone season in this study is characterised by the integrated depression of maximum potential intensity below the mean monthly sea level pressure for grid boxes characteristic of the region of peak tropical cyclone activity for each tropical cyclone basin. Results are analysed as anomalies from the long term mean. There is an overall tendency for more severe cyclone seasons (either increased length of the season or increased maximum potential intensity) although this varies between basins.
