Coupled Atmosphere-Wave-Ocean Modeling CBLAST-Hurricane Coupled Atmosphere-Wave-Ocean Modeling Conclusions Atmosphere-Ocean coupling improves tropical cyclone intensity forecasts, especially at very high resolution when eyewalls are explicitly resolved. Wind-Wave coupling contributes to storm asymmetry that very significantly from storm-to-storm. We have developed and tested a number of air-sea coupling parameterizations for fully coupled atmosphere-wave-ocean modeling systems for hurricane prediction, which are designed to be general and easy to be implemented in both research and operational coupled models.
