Abstract

Traditional spatial decompositions such as application of Empirical Orthogonal Functions and Principal Components Analysis (PCA) of meteorological field data have received wide attention in numerous forecasting and analysis applications. The method has been used to identify the important spatial patterns in meteorological fields. Defining the variability between various cases of tropical cyclones is another application of the method. We are utilizing spatial and temporal data as a tool to differentiate the TCs that complete and fail to complete extratropical transition in the western North Pacific. It has been shown that EOF Analysis is a promising tool in the prediction of reintensification of TCs after ET.
