An enhanced objective method for detecting and tracking model tropical storms in atmospheric general circulation models (AGCMs) improves the tropical storm climatology and interannual variability. The method takes into account model biases and variability of storm statistics from one ocean basin to another, whereas previous detection/tracking algorithms monitored used global dynamical and thermodynamical threshholds determined from observed tropical storm climatologies.
Previous tracking algorithms connected nearby locations for which the model storm detection criteria were met for longer than some fixed time and produced tracks that were shorter than observed storm tracks. The …
