Atlantic warm pool, Caribbean low-level jet, and their potential impact on Atlantic hurricanes (original) (raw)

2007, Geophysical Research Letters

AI-generated Abstract

The research explores the interactions between the Atlantic Warm Pool (AWP), the Caribbean Low-Level Jet (CLLJ), and their combined effects on the development of Atlantic hurricanes. The study highlights the significance of vertical wind shear and moist static instability, particularly through the lens of convective available potential energy (CAPE), which is enhanced by the AWP. The findings indicate an increased CAPE over the hurricane development regions due to the presence of the AWP, underscoring its pivotal role in influencing hurricane intensity.
