12 historical tropical cyclones impacting Bangladesh
downscaled from ERA5. Each storm has a 9-member
ensemble. Hourly fields at 4.4km and 1.5km resolution,
some full 3D fields available.
Downscaling resolves fine-scale structure of cyclones with
more intense maximum wind speeds than ERA5.
Chittagong and Cox's Bazar are particularly at risk of
maximum tropical cyclone wind speeds exceeding 45 m/s
and 60 m/s respectively, in 5% of tropical cyclones making
landfall. A prototype warning model is produced by
combining our Bayesian predictive hazard distribution with a
loss function.
