Australia has one of the highest incidents of tropical cyclone-related rainfall in the world. Although these events have considerable socio-economic impacts on population centres and industries, the rainfall processes following the landfalling tropical cyclones have received limited attention from the research community. This project aims to improve fundamental understanding of the high-risk locations, spatial-temporal characteristics, thermodynamic-dynamic mechanism on enhanced rainfall following the landfall of tropical cyclones over Australia. Expected outcomes include: (a) scientific support for weather forecasting; and (b) improved knowledge of extreme rainfall following tropical cyclone landfall in the context of warming climate.

澳大利亚是世界上热带气旋相关降雨发生率最高的国家之一。尽管这些事件对人口中心和工业产生了相当大的社会经济影响，但热带气旋登陆后的降雨过程受到研究界的关注有限。该项目旨在提高对热带气旋登陆澳大利亚后高风险地点、时空特征、降雨增强的热力学动力机制的基本认识。预期成果包括： (a) 为天气预报提供科学支持； (b) 增进对气候变暖背景下热带气旋登陆后极端降雨的了解。
