Abstract

The motion of hurricanes is investigated with a fine-mesh quasi-Lagrangian primitive equation model. The model is integrated to 72 hours using symmetric vortices of different size and intensity, and a uniform steering current. The vortex is found to intensity to hurricane strength in each case, and large asymmetries in the wind field develop.. The structure of the asymmetries is discussed. It IS suggested that the motion of the storms is related to the structure of these asymmetries.
