A Thermodynamic Pathway Leading to Rapid Intensification of Tropical Cyclones in Shear

Understanding physical processes leading to rapid intensification (RI) of tropical cyclones (TCs) under environmental vertical wind shear is key to improving TC intensity forecasts. This study analyzes the thermodynamic processes that help saturate the TC inner core before RI onset using a column‐in...
