Description:
Abstract: 
This archive contains the data and code necessary to replicate the experiments and post-processing of Ruppert et al. (2020; "The critical role of cloud–infrared radiation feedback in tropical cyclone development"). Specifically, it contains 1) the WRF model code, namelist files, and initial and boundary conditions required to run all simulations of Typhoon Haiyan and Hurricane Maria; 2) the code, forcing, and circulation output from Sawyer–Eliassen equation computations; 3) the code necessary to convert WRF model output to simulated satellite infrared brightness temperature; and 4) post-processing code in the IDL language. Some of these routines require datasets retrieved from public online databases, as noted in the journal publication.
