Description
Summary:[...]during the 1998 hurricane season, the intensity of storms below 940 hPa usually were underestimated, resulting in a small degradation in the intensity forecast by the coupled model compared to the operational version. [...]refinements to the structure of the vortex generated in the current GFDL initialization scheme are being formulated.
